trophy > multiple top 2s
everyone who is sane would pick winning madrid over getting 2nd everywhere they can
8/8 i raged when i saw it
idk wouldve rather made it to grand finals champs and grand finals shanghai than just win their region twice
maybe im underrating regional perfs but regionals have significantly weaker teams than internationals so
sadge th :(
im biased but th were 100% the best emea team this year
especially considering they had rookies vs experienced fnatic frogs, they went crazy
def an argument for lev over th though i see it
5th with an international title? i'd rather have sen's year than lev's year for sure, there's a reason i had the 3 trophy winners in top 3
regarding prx, they seemed to very interestingly a team that got WORSE throughout the season so i see your point
(2nd kickoff -> 3rd madrid -> 1st stage 1 -> 6th shanghai -> 3rd stage 2 -> 12th seoul)
1 - GenG
they were easily the most consistent team in a year where so many different teams made top 4 - top 6 at each international, they also won their own region twice and made every grand final other than champs
2 - Edward Gaming
I would rather have the champs trophy after a really shitty year internationally than a masters title and a 4th place finish. There would be a huge argument for Sentinels here if they didn't have such a midseason slump. Even though EDG won their region 3 times, it doesn't have as much weight as an americas / emea / apac doing the same because the other chinese teams are undeniably weaker in comparison
3 - Sentinels
Kickoff winners, madrid winners, 4th place champs with a huge upset against GenG, best americas team this year. definitely have to talent to pick up another title next year.
4 - Team Heretics
2nd place kickoff, 8th at madrid, 2nd at stage 1, 2nd in Shanghai, 3rd at stage 2, and 2nd in seoul. they came close to the trophy so many times and didn't win a single one, but damn if they are not a team to look out for next season.
--- MASSIVE GAP ---
5 - Paper Rex? Leviatan? Fnatic?
Paper Rex uniquely made it to all 3 international events, a feat that only them, EDG, FPX, TH, and GENG have. although they've had ups and downs, they also won their region and came away with a 4th and a 6th internationally.
Leviatan has the highest champs placement out of those not listed yet, with a 3rd place. They looked insane, only getting better throughout the year, and they won their region stage 2 against a highly rated G2, also coming away with a stage 1 runner up.
Fnatic won their region twice, though they had poor international showings for a team that won two trophies last year. They're a lock for 2nd best EMEA team, but how much does that really do for them?
what do we think for top 5? anyone i forgot?
wow what a great opinion, we should kiss
lakia played like that for ~3 series total this year
if you replace lakia with boaster on geng then they lose to DRG at shanghai
love to see this guy succeed ever since shanghai on tariks stream, super W of him to support heretics even when hes not playing
go miniboo!!!!!!!!
i wanted to explain what would happen regarding TH if GenG won. it goes without saying that GenG qualifies even if they lose to TH
thank hiko for these takes he whispered in my ear while i was trying to sleep
they really aren't good enough to get top 4 at this event but they're lucky KRU and BLG are fodder. maybe FNC 2-1 KRU in decider. if BLG upset KRU then BLG will get 2-0'd by FNC anyway
except for my 100% fact guarantees
FUT tied PRX in placement at shanghai and went 1st in regular season W-L don't count out my goats
i have PRX winning but it's not an upset if FUT win
hiko spoke to me in my sleep thats how i knew all of it
i cooked with pickems i had trace 2-0 in their group and DRX 2-0 in their group i could smell it in the air, almost perfect pickems but i made the mistake of FUT and PRX winning their opening games . fraud ass teams, they will somehow both find a way to lose the elim game and tie for 17th place on august 9
certified notnorte guarantee ✅
i just really want to see it, kyro is probably actually cute as hell you can tell by the way someone types
leave your fantasy land bro. change flair sen aren't winning anything
DRX wins over FNC guaranteed. may or may not be close but in no worlds will DRX lose
TH and GenG will be close. if GenG win then TH will lose to FPX in the decider. if TH face SEN in decider, then TH mops SEN
Trace qualify vs Lev, anyone's game for the other spot
G2 fuck EDG and EDG EDGES me by going to a map 3 all OT with FUT in decider. FUT qualify
its hard to get good results when youre igling while top fragging. depending on boasters performance at champs nats could be considered the best EMEA fragging IGL
nats needs to be freed from liquid jail
fnc lock in > eg champs. fnc only dropped maps to loud
but EG lost to PRX and went to map 5 vs LOUD. they also lost a map to EDG
FUT 13-6
EDG 14-12
FUT 13-8
Group C decider and Group D decider will be the highlights of champs group stage.
Group A FNC v KRU but its a stomping
Group B TH v FPX classic but boring now, C and D will have non rematches
LEV TLN group C decider match 3 map triple OT hidden gigabanger incoming
“The lights were brighter than expected.”
not sure if title of best glaze is good but ill take it
no glaze but i could actually listen to sliggy talk about VALORANT teams and whos going to win all day , this guy its insane how well-researched he is and how teams could actually genuinely gain from sliggy critiques
it's not crazy when u think long and hard about it
BLD 5-0 NRG
he should vod review 10 days of Titan Esports Club right
