Omega. They have EMEA's 3 strongest on paper teams.

Giants and KOI. I would say the most underrated teams heading into Sao Paulo.

Yeah today they were on form. I was bit worried of guys like Magum and even Enzo, but they have performed well so far.

same hair, but yeah Keiko is definitely a promising prodigy

I actually think Fade is better on A and C. I tried to play Sova, but IMO Fade util gets so much more value on both attack and defend(especially).

Pretty nice lineup! But overall I prefer Fade on this map. Not many lineup possibilities, but you don't really need many because of fast fights in pretty close areas and prowlers are so nice on this map with the doors etc.

SMB maybe, but its too early to tell

Nice seeing ec1s and Polvi on this team. Makes Human Tripwires more interesting for sure.

Lotus - Fade
Ascent - Fade
Bind - Fade
Breeze - Neon
Fracture - Breach
Icebox - Sova
Split - Breach
Haven - Killjoy
Pearl - Killjoy

I pretty much like Killjoy and Fade most

DRX ofc. I don't have much fate in PRX, but single elim bracket might benefit them.

Clarifier and then something from that like Clarifierr. Or Clarifer. Sounds like mechanic part tbf but its not bad IMO.

What I saw on someone's steam today, not full results and unknown opponents(if I remember correctly around scores):
NAVI 13-1 vs [unknown team]
Giants 3-12 vs [unknown team]
Heretics 7-5 vs Apeks

Sentinel - nAts: pretty much perfect sentinel. Insane gamesense/decision making combined with really good mechanics. Can play any sentinel agent.
Controller - MaKo: has been consistent top 3 controller for long time already. Also plays every controller on top level.
Duelist - Derke: can play top level Jett, Chamber and Raze. Has insane rifling and his oping is good. Aspas good as well, but hasn't played much of Chamber.
Initiator: Leo: he isn't proven best initiator yet, but I do rate him as the best in my mind. Really good and really flexible. Used to be literal star of a team as initiator main.

NOO NAVI WAS LEADING SCRIM 13-1 AGAINST UNKNOWN TEAM BAAT

Haven maybe. I kinda liked Bind as well.

Weird map tbf. Its like constant fighting and rounds feel really fast like if it was really small map. But maybe its just because people have no idea how to play it yet so a lot of times people just stack on attack etc.

Sliggy maybe? I mean he already had day in EMEA VCT and was there for RedBull Homeground so I think he could be potential option for Riot if he is open for it. Has bunch of knowledge and guys like him (ex-pro/coach) are perfect for desk talent. We haven't heard any news of him joining any team yet.

also its possible that they just want to have as small group as possible. Leagues next year mean that the talent will likely have more consistent contracts so they won't need as many people. Especially when they are likely focusing way more on NA Valorant.

One of the best during early days of OWL. Didn't watch much OWL pre season 3, but during the time I watched he was always decent at least, but heard that during final season he was pretty bad.

I saw NRG being up 3-0 in custom game on someones stream today

Pancada, Mako, Sugarz3ro(Marved if you still count him)

FeelsGoodMan Clap

Very possible. Good time for Fnatic fans with them having one of the best LEC roster and on paper one of the best Valorant rosters. And they can't really go wrong with either one. Both should I'm for top 3 finishes at all times really.

I see them beating NRG, but losing to Giants. They can go further though. But yes their roster can definitely go all the way and its not out of possibilities even though the chances are low. People just underrated the f out of hypothetical 4th-6th EMEA teams, because the trio of Fnatic, NaVi and Liquid is so strong on paper.

damn respect

The fact that he is a billionaire almost certainly means that he is at least somewhat evil and bad person.

True, but different teams and players react to it differently. C9 also has much more experience from CSGO.

Meh, but one of the best default re-skins, so if you are into those then this is pretty good IMO. And yeah gun buddy is 5/5

KOI beats NRG
Giants beats LOUD(or whoever they face)
PRX won't look good
top 4 will be 1 Asian team and 3 EMEA teams(DRX, Giants, Fnatic, Liquid)

3rd BO3 in a day and as I said worst Molsi performance I've ever seen.

Vitality. They already looked pretty good in G-Loot and RedBull(weakest tournament from Molsi I've seen) for pretty young team and I think they will benefit the most from spending more time together. They don't have the most stacked roster individually, but just like OGLU before them I think their team will be all about structure, setplays and chemistry. And even though they don't have the most stacked roster or most firepower they still have some good individuals. Molsi and Twisten duo is really good and will benefit from new meta(Jett, Raze and even Neon). ceNder isn't bad either and can play any sentinel. Bonecold's form has been good as well.

While GE is just big ? and I don't rate their roster highly and it will likely be filled with issues like language barrier etc.

Remember people saying that about Guild vs OpTic, but well what happened? NRG are the favorites, but KOI has legit chance at taking it. Their roster isn't much worse and is filled with proven players -Wolfen (s0m on NRG same).

Koldamenta might be the most underrated IGL in the world. He has led 3 rosters to greatness while also taking young players and making them really good Acend(cNed), G2(Keloqz fell off) and Guild(trexx). I think he is perfect IGL for Wolfen. And remember how well Guild player around Yay in Copenhagen? Maybe best I've seen.

Trexx has always been overshadowed by Leo and Sayf. He is really good and flexible player.

Sheydos was arguably M3C's best player this year or at least 2nd and again has always been overshadowed by nAts and Chronicle.

starxo struggled, but so did Acend. He was constantly switching roles and had to play hard entry for team that played like shit anyway. Can't success.

Like NRG's core is really proven +Ardiis, but I truly believe KOI will be able to challenge them. Also OpTic always used to start slow.

Derke, Cloud or nAts

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/6c0dd36d ez

Leo

I don't exactly know how the bracket works but Giants, DRX, NAVI, 100T(?). 100T only faces mid teams.

Giants
DRX
NaVi
100

but fucked brackets and top 3 EMEA has to eliminate each other if i'm not wrong

zetai

True

KOI 2-1

they merged with LDN UTD and signed their roster so I think that was pretty W and also signed Salah

Just imagine if they gave FUT's spot to org like OG who could have built good team out of the players who didn't make it to other 8 non-Turkish teams

but no troll orgs get free wins

Vitality 2-0 GE
and its not even close even flair doesnt check out

Nope. I'm confident they will get eliminated first round, but anything can happen tbf.

Koldamenta and Trexx already beat OpTic first round in Copenhagen so we will see will history repeat itself

VIT > GE

Single elim is so shit, but kind of understandable due to the amount of teams

Derke, Jamppi, hoody, BONECOLD + 1 (Iluri/Polvi/Famsii/H1ber) ez clap

$ 5: Mistic
$ 8: Jugi
$ 4: YaBoiLewis
$ 6: Kpzet
$ 2: Nille

fuck it 25 points because you put stanley on $5 like cmon guy doesnt even play here

Never owned one, but I like how they look. Wouldn't really suit my style and aren't that versatile outside of some colorways, but if you go for more streetwear style fashion then dunks are fire.
