New map losing it doesn't mean much. NA teams like OpTic and 100T seem to have better idea on Pearl that most other teams so its likely that XSET has as well.

Good pick from XSET tbh. Anything can happen on that map.

Their form was insane during Stage 2 EMEA but got worse.

No. His clutches are good, but outside of that he hasn't been that great. Let's be real.

It wasn't pretty, but at least Fnatic played some time to get back in form

I’m sorry to say, but 100T will roll FNC. Will clears Derke and Seangares will antistrat Mini hard. GG go next year for FNC, hopefully they make franchising. ( not jinxing btw )

my fucking heart oh my god

yes, but that doesn't mean you team should be full of tier 2 players no other language than Russian or English can make good enough team to deserve to be in tier 1.

tbf Fnatic got in with points I don't think this form would land them 2nd spot in EMEA

if this is true that is so so fucked this is why I'm scared of franchising. League full of mid teams filled with players who only got in because of nationality

Enzo has been weak in LAN tournaments so far.

HOW DO YOU LOSE THAT 5V2 AND HAVE SPIKE AT SITE WTF

omfg how did they even lose the pistol and now this

Yeah but it works for their Icebox comp and after all he is the sentinel player of this team if you don't count Chamber. I would like to see Liquid's Icebox comp played by Fnatic tho. I think it would suit them perfectly. Alfajer Raze and Enzo Fade would be more comfortable I think.

didn't mean that he was just shouting something at Fnatic players so maybe he thought Boaster was BMing them and tried to mimic

Yeah they played well not trying to take away from them. I just think Fnatic looked sloppier than usual.

Maybe he thought it was toxic but it was just Boaster getting his blood flowing and warming up

If only every individual on Fnatic would activate at same time... Or that happened, but online.

Fnatic Icebox has usually been really dominant, but today I feel like their form was really bad and its also possible that teams have started to learn how to play against them. It worked well before, but Furia played with them here. Also Derke and Alfajer were not hitting and those 2 are usually really dominant on Icebox.

That was terrible from Fnatic. I know I'm only dumb spectator and don't know how hard it is for the players in game but holy fuck. I don't think I have ever been this mad over someone's performance.

Yeah likely, but tbh Fnatic deserve to lose this. Their form is horrible right now. So bad. What happened to them after winning EMEA? Legit think they wouldn't have made it out of LCQ even if it was for 2 teams.

He is too overconfident all the time. He takes so many risks and get punished by it.

Brazilian igns have to be the worst, but maybe I just don't understand them and make better sense in Brazilian

His fragging and aim has been so bad today and he overheats and tunnel visions way too much.

All of Fnatic look so shaky right now. Just running around spraying like please just chill. They wait until last 30 sec and then turn into panic mode.

Problem with Derke is that he is missing so many OP shots. Even against 100T he was constantly missing really basic shots. His rifling is really good, but he isn't super strong with OP compared to players like Yay or Ardiis. Even if he hit ACE there.

they look so shaky and lost classic Fnatic start I guess

yeah it was so long time ago

Mini has said in chats before that Fnatic can play Breeze, so I would imagine that they are pretty comfortable with it but just don't play because their map pool is pretty good overall. But actually so interesting to know what agents they will be playing. Derke Jett? Alfajer Chamber?

Last time I remember Fnatic playing Breeze was when Magnum was playing A pyramids as Killjoy and dying with his ulti lol that is actually the last time I remember them

Unlikely, but not impossible. All you need is just Fnatic having off day and that's it. That's Valorant. And I still think main reason Fnatic lost vs 100T was because Pearl is new map.

true

I don't know just check used cars and buy some that works

I don't know, but likely Riot's own because music finder cannot find it.

Got 90 first try, but I don't use 10 finger method so I'm happy with it. I have gotten higher in the past.

nah, but tbh any team has a chance at beating anyone in the tournament. The difference between the levels isn't that big and anything can happen in this game. Think about Acend losing their game vs VK and then just rolling though the tournament and winning the whole thing. Everything is possible. No team outside of BOOM and EDG are out yet.

G Pro Superlight, XM2w or some from Pulsar. Would be my go to.

Edward is furious now... Edward making up Masterplan right now... return will EDG scary.... conquer the world they ready are.... living in EDG world we might be already 😲...

For next year every banned user should get unbanned and given another chance

Its just good comp and Fnatic knows perfectly how to play it. Like just look at G2 they have also been really dominant on Icebox with same comp. Its just really good if you know how to play it and are comfortable with it. Also even outside of that Fnatic has always been good on Icebox so the players are likely just really comfortable on that map. Boaster with his calls and Derke with his killing etc.

Some time ago he streamed his trials for some tier 3 team. Didn't look good tho for what I saw.

same

We have mandatory military service here as well so my assumption and research (haven't been in army yet):
You have to serve after turning 18 and I would imagine that most serve year or two after that due to school etc and you have to serve before turning 28-30?. And Korean have to serve for about 20 months.
And for tasks its just basic military training and then you specialize to certain branch. It likely has different periods aka starting with basic stuff that is taught for everyone and then more specific and obviously during this time you do your serve in whatever branch you are in. Let it be navy or whatever.
And if you reject you are likely going to end up in jail. Also at least we have option for civil service aka 11 months doing usually government provided jobs and I would imagine South Korea having something similar but for longer due to our service only lasting 6-12 months instead of 20.

but this is just my assumption based on little research and our system

Leviatan were really good, but Liquid wasn't that great either. I think they definitely looked better today compared to their game vs Leviatan.

My guess would be Jamppi but just by like 1cm

Yeah the game was close, but my point was that I thought Liquid would get grouped because of their form at the time. They were looking pretty weak in EMEA and just got carried by their individual skill. Classic Liquid tbh.

hmmm coincidence? I don't think so.

TL and FPX IMO both are insane on ecos

Trolling with Phoenix pick. Scream was dominating on Jett last time they played, but decided to change comp for some reason. Unlucky.

yeah that is true, but its Scream and I think Phoenix suits him better he isn't super aggro player
