zekken said he stopped playing ranked basically bc of clove, i think if he took getting rank 1 every act seriously again like he used to he could definitely do it still

i'm outside rn and on vlr

when he had drewspark they were cooking. i still can't believe they got rid of him for 2025

tex or demon1 ig. maybe net? the super options are all taken

if you reassembled the '22 loud roster people would call it a superteam though, no? in my mind this means they were one before they won champs, even if no one could have known it at the time

i mean he would be right. Just bc no one recognizes it was a superteam at the time doesn't mean that it wasn't. if you reassembled the 2022 loud roster, people would call it a superteam now

not a bandwagon mibr fan, just a real zekken fan. it baffles me that people treat this like real sports where you support orgs over players, as if these rosters are not only 5 players and as if teams have been around for decades instead of just years. this is esports. you are not going to find team culture except for rosters that are longstanding (5+ years) or from orgs that have been around for 5-10 years that have a brand and base already. sentinels is not one of those orgs.

been a zekken fan since xset so bye bye sen

it's nap time bud

it’s funny bc i’ve heard his english back then on sen vs. now and it’s completely different. back then he could barely speak english and now he speaks as well as sacy

I don't want them to drop anyone but Crashies is probably going back home to NA. His family and gf are back there and he only had a 1 year contract with fnc

I think being able to buy odin on 2nd round is absurd so if I had to pick one, I would do the price increase

it can't be as bad how chamber nerfs affected yay

I can agree with this but I don't even think the odin needs to be nerfed too heavily. I would reduce bullet count and make it a little more expensive, which seems reasonable to me given it's only 300 more than a rifle rn with 4 times the bullets with high fire rate and high pen. Should be closer in price to the op than a rifle, or at least midway, no?

there is no goat in this game yet, aspas chronicle and ethan are all lacking somewhere. the true goat will emerge with aspas level mechanics and chronicle amounts of trophies.

in my opinion, this is like saying yoru is not broken bc great players like aspas or kk didn't take the time to learn how to use him properly and get experience on him. the odin has been broken for a long time just like yoru has, but no one fully realized till this year.

THE LAKIA OF VALORANT

SEN ASPAS

right click knife refresh is busted but I'd be down to have double updraft back

only problem is yoru is for sure getting a giga nerf in the end of year balance patch

to your last point, if that were the case I would also be calling those people stupid. bc they would be

pick 3 of 4: lower fire rate, more expensive, it's medium pen, and lower bullet/reserve bullet count

when i say respect, i don't necessarily mean as a person. I mean as in literally being in the server, respecting that they have decent enough aim and brains so they can't just run it down on them like ranked. You'd be hard pressed to find a pro in tier 1 who doesn't have respect for another as competitors. Everyone feels the same pressure and anything goes in the server, especially trash talk. You think Crashies and s0m hate each other when they're shittalking?

The different is the pros know and respect each other. you, on the other hand. like me and everyone else, are just an online shitter with none of the skill and brains of any pro

i'm from NA but i'm seriously hearing that EMEA is ass because checks notes they went to map 5 in a grand final and lost on their permaban? tribalist idiots don't even realize that top 3 was 3 different regions. The parity in this game worldwide is insane compared to others.

as a fan of both teams it's easy to see fnatic are mentally boomed now. brawk doesn't even need to odin anymore

if you heard what fns said about how brawk studies spam spots and how he uses the odin, you know there is no counter to that shit

banger until grand finals you just have insane zoomer brain recency bias

if the odin isn't gutted in the upcoming balance patch i will delete my account

The odin in its current state still has no place in a game like this and it's 100% getting nerfed after this champs

ASPAS TO SEN, ZEKKEN TO FLEX ROLE

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

but he should

1 trophy > no trophies

i think you would be better off teaching redux senti/flex to replace zellsis than replace bang. bang still brings firepower

zekken is a big sacrificial lamb and is a super consistent player. his recent underwhelming form is uncharacteristic for him. i think being a former mvp at an IL gives you a bump. granted 6 is still pretty high for me personally, and he's my second favorite player of all time since XSET. I had him 10th.

eu marved

subtle flex i see you. love it

i mean yea zekken would say that if he thought that i think. based on his speech to his teammates that one time, he's not one to pull punches

I think they would change the coaching staff before the players. I've always maintained Zellsis is very important to sentinels but I could still see him still being benched for Reduxx IF he doesn't perform at champs

Bro hasn't entered the Brawktagon

nats invented lurking. the word lurking never existed until nats invented it

i love that the logo has nothing to do with macaroni and cheese

but he did and went 29/18

i wouldn't say he ruined his career, just ruined his year. he can bounce back next year if he doesn't insist on going igl/flex

i love mr overwatch.

First it says "Drew 'Kess' Lee joins from North American Challengers squad QoR , and will be the IGL for the thieves." Two sentences later it says "It is believed that zander will take over Boostio's duties as the team's IGL."

??????

There should be seperate awards for finals MVP and player of the tournament. would clear up situations like nats/chronicle, texture/meteor, kangkang/chichoo, alfajer/forsaken, etc whomever else i’m missing

you can't kick the cow if it's unseen
