GC players don’t count as imports.

silentzzz is okay, but Lz is truly a liability.

I don't understand how 2G is cutting their emotional anchor for nzr, who has been passed around by three teams already.

KillAA and co. for the win. Surely.

ZETA 2-1

I don’t live in the downtown core but i still live in the city.

Nah hotels are not it.

all the affordable ones are outside of the downtown area, so it’s like 20+ minutes away from the venue.

Actual fever dream of a game.

DRX double duelist
Flashback Neon??
Jinggg Omen, MF Cypher
PRX being proactive
DRX pushing up extremities and taking risky fights
MaKo ego peeking??

What timeline are we in?

3/4

NRG…. i had better hopes.

2G
AG
TYL

All three of the teams you mentioned have potential to be good, based on rookie pickups and meta considerations.

Meiy (duelist)
Aace (sentinel)
Caedye (initiator)
BRIAN (flex/IGL)
bazz (controller)

No KillAA or kurfz duelist, no hope of being competitive.
13-3, 13-5

RC 2-0

If bdog doesn’t get picked up next year, teams are smoking something else.

ZETA…..

This org is so cooked. They’re really going thru valorant’s equivalent of a writer’s block.

They put hiroronn on the wrong role last year, they bring back XQQ as coach, they don’t put two of the upcoming prospects on duelist (kurfz and KillAA).

This is so not ZETA’s year.

KillAA duelist or no hope of getting more than 8 rounds in both maps.

So will the upcoming The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity.

ninebody is holding this team back. It’s not 2023 anymore buddy, hop off the duelist and give it to slowly.

What a really weird signing.

Always thought goked-run teams always crumbled and never lived up to their potential — and sometimes looked worse than expected.

Happened with KOI, Leviatan, and now M8.

AM: SCCP, NV, M80, SRB
EMEA: BCF
PAC: DPLUS, T1A (can get bought out by another org), RIDDLE, FS

Vania is fine, but amy and nelo switching roles is not the move. amy was one of the best [GC] sentinel prospects last year and she is getting hard-nerfed by playing initiator.

Green forsaken classic
Magepunk guardian

Those two will never change.

Robert Lewandowski.

As a Bayern fan, he did incredible work for the team. No one will forget his back to back golden boot and 5 goals in 9 minutes.

Falcons' APAC debut? They are going to fry this league.

FLC 2-0.

Hopefully SpiritZ1 takes the duelist role now. He was statistically the best duelist in HK/TW.

When’s Killy gonna play?

Prospect for the future or stage fright?

I am not gonna be like “oh you’re a grown man, don’t use those words,” since i have no right in policing other people’s vocabulary.

However, given that he is a professional, it should set a precedent on what or not to say and when to say it. He represents an org, and is a very influential figure of the space. People look up to him, whether we realize it or not.

Obviously the witch-hunting on both sides is just appalling, and we as a community need to chill on that.

Toronto resident obv.

It better be at Meridian Hall or Roy Thomson Hall (the latter for playoffs at least,) even Metro Convention Centre works.

If it’s at Maple Leaf Gardens or Congress centre , i am going to shoot myself (in game).

For reference: if Meridan Hall, Roy Thomson, and Metro Toronto Convention Centre were at NYC, it would be in Manhattan. Maple Leaf Gardens would be at Soho, and Congress Centre would be at New Jersey.

NTH please win this.

Beat this fraudulent team once and for all.

NTH 2-1

Flora gonna cook now that he might take the duelist spot.

BCS 2-1

Nah fr.

There must be incredibly wrong w his application because he should’ve gotten approved of it by now.

My friend knew a literal criminal (A Philippines resident who got criminally charged, deported from the US, is barred from entering US, Canada, and Australia), and yet they got a Japanese VISA in under a month.

Been saying EDG should sign Viva.

Experience + firepower + flexibility.

G2, MIBR, LEV
VIT, FNC, BBL
T1, DRX, NS
EDG, NOVA, XLG

Finally, T1 win a trophy. It’s been 4 long years.

From the era of ska, AZK, and brax ; to signing Spyder and getting bullied by the org ; to help Sewer ; to bombing out of challengers qualifiers with steel ; to the Xeta-Curry trade ; to the roller coaster of 2023-2024 seasons ; to finally now.

I’ve been waiting for this since 2021 (near the end of 2020), hoping T1 will be a great team someday. Now it’s here.

#T1WIN.

just s1mon, smoggy has been good domestically, and it’s an off tournament for him.

This is the third time he got 30+ kills. Just in Bangkok.

Maybe he is nAts’ successor.

RIDDLE should win. As much as I like BRIAN and Saya, REJECT is not Japan's 2nd best team.

Minty is no Aace, but he has been a solid replacement, and the team itself has been consistently solid.

RID 3-1 (might lose Fracture if they don't ban it)

RIDDLE and FL keeping this scene afloat atp.

pick for sure

It's a great anime with a good storyline, good characters, great writing, and very emotional moments. It's an anime that'll make you feel -- about yourself, about your emotions, about other people's emotions.

Im behind on the lore, why is everyone clowning on Euler and why would SG have the world’s best fracture?

Carpe was insane. He was the reliable hard-carry with a solid team. Carpe is miles better than Sinatraa at his peak.

If there were a VAL player to compare Carpe to, it would be prime cNed.

SCARZ vs Northeption 2.0

Do it for LOB.

SZ 2-1

melya the goat will pull through

any year, any tourney.

Mine would be:

Gambit vs Crazy Raccoons (Masters Berlin Group C Decider)

Partly because that was when Plat Chat did their costreams and it was so hype.

AMER: M80, Rankers, TSM, FUSION, Corinthians, Red Canids

EMEA: PCFIC, MOUZ, DNSTY, DVM
