nothing you can really do outside of learn better movement, pathing and getting good enough aim to diff ppl in duels

i can't believe heybay went back to his cheating habits and convinced Aspas to matchfix 😡😡😡

literally all of the teams in the region leveled up from having international scrim experience & making roster changes that made the teams look more alive. you could see it in teams like All Gamers and Wolves who had very specific problems but overall became fundamentally solid by the end of the regular season. Trace always had it in them, FPX are the closest thing the region is to a superteam atm, EDG simply had coaching issues, and BLG are implementing new structure that's made them look so much better since split 2

they won't

would JDG have done better compared to BLG?

it was a good source of practice for all of them and made them really motivated to get better. literally EVERY CN team improved in split 2 & they're hungry for more

valid reaction to EDG getting more rounds in this half than they did against Loud

you'll be OG once the bandwagoners start switching after champs

og China flairs once again proving they are the most intelligent demographic

and Haodong and Muggle are clearly cooking on the coach role too

1 team region who had one fluke run at Madrid and thinks they're good!!!!!!!!😂😂

Ryancentral is exploding with happiness

in all seriousness FUT were not playing like they normally do that series, but DRG being able to tussle was in hindsight a pretty good sign

Biank making his enemies shoot blanks 🗿🗿

the script was foreshadowed the entire time LMFAOOO

DRG finished bottom half of the league and they went 11-13 12-14 against FUT in shanghai...

real

you ain't up on them unless you got them winning 26-0 🗣️🗣️

really down on FPX huh?

w gambling

shat themselves against EDG and choked against FPX

LMFAOOOO

eh don't count on it

nah they have slk now it'll get better next year

shit unless you're heybay*

thank GOD they rescued him from Tyloo

I'm talking more about long-term player investment, not the way EMEA teams bring out value in their individual players. TH is the perfect example of this because they went through the trouble of actually developing their entire team that was comprised of undervalued talent

heavily disagree on the Americas talent tbh. Tier 2 is filled with rich and diverse players that can provide value, it's just that Americas (both NA and SA) have habits of recycling players, cores & rosters that continue to be mediocre both domestically and internationally

there's already an insane pool of mechanically gifted players in CN tier 2 that'll definitely outshine some of the CN old guard rn. the more worse off teams will get a huge boost next year tbh

i love the enthusiasm but we gotta wait for EDG vs G2 to know for sure that they can compete. also there's always a possibility that FPX can also choke against GENG in lowers in another FPX classic

this shit is gonna be crossfire 2.0 by 2026. all the new talents are gonna go even harder than the pool currently playing

here before all the 0/10s

it ain't even a sacrifice they're just good bro 😭

Chinese G2 fr

ppl also brought up her testosterone difference compared to the rest of the boxers as if it mattered in physical sports lol. it's fucking boxing of course someone with higher testosterone would wanna compete if they're naturally built bigger

one of the greatest callers in China atm for sure

Sin Prisa, TurtleTroop/Darkzero, Trace, and of course AG

that would be the biggest series of events in val ever, but their odds against the Americas powerhouses ain't the best

PRX aren't making it but we up

if there's room they will fit 🙏

GENG are for sure good enough to still finish top of the tourney
FPX have been proven to cook and thrive in top level competition
SEN making it out would be a cracked storyline & would prove themselves

overall w group

germany and italy were up 10-2 in the first map with it ending 13-11 after an attempted USSR comeback. during the second map it was 8-4 for the Russians and after the Axis got flawlessed on pistol Italy dc'd and it ended 13-4 with a 5 round win streak, then the Russians 13-0'd map 3

this is the shit that forges champions. i'm sure Berlin likes the challenge anyways lol

this is fire

Ego will cook 2023 EG style and make the ACTUAL Chinese superteam 😤

predicting the future with this one 🙏

the average top 6 contender team has more depth than SEN did in Madrid. GENG, TH, and even FPX if they stop throwing are ahead of even that

the only way it stops is if BLG win it all and he goes through ego death
