eg vs fnc upper finals in tokyo, last 2 rounds were the craziest shit live

rob tweeted some lame shit again, got clowned on and backpedaled, all good

no one is taking this as seriously as you on this forum, I can assure you of that

you're the one who comes across offended on behalf of a 60 year old millionaire who's currently mid crashout considering how many replies you've posted defending him. It's not that deep, I agree, it's just embarrassing

even if it is to drive engagement (poorly timed if so and g2 might not even play sen in bangkok) I'd sacrifice all the viewership in the world if it meant I didn't have to see a 60 year old millionaire act like a cringe 12 year old on twitter because his team lost 2 days after the damn game

he's not talking shit he's butthurt, big difference

I'm saying the other teams have similar or better macro on more maps

kc match was last year I guess

they have by far the most exploitable map pool at the event and the beautiful macro you're talking about really ain't allat for most of these teams

you're overcorrecting on the china underestimation from champs, their map pool is ass

I'm not saying they aren't good, this isn't a madrid fpx situation

wtf is going on why are people genuinely acting like trace is the best 2 seed because edg did their usual trolling in regional upper bracket. Unless teams fuck up and let them play their best maps again they're 8th in the event

people have gone all the way around to overglazing trace atp

bro's brain got broken by heretics being shit

so when g2 drops maps in grand finals it's that they're overrated but when vit drops maps it's that they don't care lol

fnc banned fracture in tokyo grands

sen fans are so clout-brained it's insane, do you guys have stock in the company or something?

no meteor no bangkok, unlucky for 2024 bandwagoners

G2 got the choking gene out of them now, thanks sen for being so shit

azzlestasia must be creaming his jeans what happened to heretics

last year kickoff/madrid was even worse

japan fakeflaggers on this site have an avg iq of 60

teams still win alot from lower bracket so I don't see your point

they would need to stop with the double duelist to qualify for an international imo, it's fine to cheese some wins against unprepped kickoff teams but it's not sustainable

they play like they don't have comms bro, so uncoordinated

how are people still so convinced t1 aren't complete frauds? Are they blind?

if a t1 org picked up redgar for 2027 I would be ok if they got the bleed treatment ngl

spirit absolutely can (them or navi imo unless vitality turn up huge), mongolz probably not

just be normal about it, 90% of teams in vct have perfectly fine fanbases that I have no problem with

I hate any team with stans who clearly don't understand the game they're watching or even keep up with broader storylines yet inorganically act like their team is the protagonist, it immediately makes me want them to lose. I hate prx, edg, t1 in lol, daigo fans in street fighter back in the day, doesn't matter who if you/your team has a fanbase like that I will never want them to win anything

This result kinda shows t1 are pretty fraudulent no? I think drx roll them tbh, then it's gonna be either geng or nongshim in grand finals with them

damn I thought they were ass but maybe loud is just good. Anyway no yay phoenix on pearl pls potter

is baiting emea fans on vlr even satisfying? Seems too easy, they're always on the defensive by default

lev beat 100t at least, only lost to the 2 grand finalists as well

superteam merchant unfortunately :(

idk why they're so obsessed with the whole kickoff idea, is it that hard to just have 3 splits in a year?

Emea fans always do this, claim they have the most depth after week 1 and then when internationals start they become a 1 team region again.

in this game it's more about the meta read/prep on maps than player skill imo. You can still get aim diffed obviously, you need "good enough" mechanics, but especially nowadays util can be so oppressive, especially if your opponent hasn't prepped for it, that you don't need anyone who's the best in their role to win an event imo

I'm not 'protecting' c0m I'm shitting on deluded aspas fanboys, there's a difference. I also never said I'm not a fan of any team or player, I am an eg fan and I'm disappointed at how they played but it's just a fucking game man I'm not gonna sit here mad about it a week later. Not my problem you tie your national identity to fucking valorante child game so you have to comb through interviews to find shit to get mad at, I didn't even bring up brazil or any other brazilian players, loud played well congrats to them I hope they beat sen

Go watch madrid again the level of valorant at that event was tragic

in international matches yeah because boostio was +0 against him in tokyo

First off no one is "my duelist" because I don't have some weird parasocial attachment to valorant pros, I'm not crazy like sen fans or prx fans or aspas fanboys. Second he's like cryo (you know the guy your goat just got rolled by) in that he's a jett who flexes to smokes, he isn't a typical duelist player. If he wants to perform he ought to be in a system like 2023 eg or current 100t where there's a raze flex and a jett flex, idk if it's his ego or the coach but I agree he shouldn't be playing raze. If it is his idea he can ruin his own career or he can go back to his 2023 roles, it doesn't really affect me

demon1 played smokes on 3/5 of the maps. If we only count maps where he played duelist he was +1 against aspas

Aspas fans are really still yapping after we just saw his vanity project get steamrolled by 100t, you guys should be worrying about not geting 2-0d by c9 instead of being petty towards his former teammates

By this logic boostio>aspas

PRX fans every year:

1. pre-season "we're the best team in pacific, our pookies are finally gonna win a trophy this year"
2. lose to a pacific team "well they're just the best"
3. have a good domestic split "we're back in form, we're favourites to win masters/champs"
4. get eliminated "we need an igl, drop jinggg, drop mindfreak, drop alecks, we can't just w gaming and aim diff anymore"

Rinse and repeat forever

you did not watch kru vs loud haven if you think they're not bottom 3 rn, that shit was embarrassing and I was a kru believer

I think it was a financial issue, if I had to guess vit probably spent a shitton this year and fnc couldn't match the offer

he seems like an onliner rn but he needs more time

I don't speak spanish/portugese enough to know how likeable the SA teams are but 100t are lower surely. Also demon1 and c0m have a lot of haters so idk about lev
