istg most of us have been realizing that something is absolutely not going well within the team but kinda put under the rock after they won Masters Bangkok. i remember one time watching t3xture played duo with Meteor and Meteor was like "finally, i can breathe and play whatever i want" feels like something else.

i hear u

bruh pls T^T

but bruh they indeed lost that match, so RRQ > Gen.G at that time. now, meta and map shift again, we don't know what will happen next. it's not about being delusional.

i don't doubt Ash's ability but i do agree with you, it's his first international match so i was thinking that he's gonna play like in split 1's final, nervous and couldn't even shoot properly. but i'm surprised that he actually pops off and i hope he will do so in the next matches~!

istg even in ranked, when t3xture hit ace, they lost ;-;

Seoldam 🥹 his debut in franchising was actually the worst side of him at that time 😭 before joining DFM, he was in slump, been playing Apex all the time, couldn't even play Valorant ranked properly (I even questioned like how tf he got picked up by the team where he wasn't in the good state). after he departed, he started to learn other agents, no longer a one-trick Jett and he's been shining since last year in RIDDLE. all the best for him in the future~!

wdym home, they will go to Toronto

get well soon! he postponed his surgery for this match and tomorrow's match 😣😭 he'll get one on Monday so speed recovery for him, mad respect for him ☺️

agree 😭

tbf he's super cracked on other roles as well! bro is a fkin' beast, RRQ is sooo lucky to have such good roster tbh <3

He was, he admitted his wrongdoings. fl1pzjder also apologized, they did to each other where Meteor became the middleman to settle the problems. For TenTen side, he already got his punishment from Riot, social punishment where he immediately got kicked out by NORTHEPTION at the time, he moved on, starting fresh, but you stuck in the past.

But I heard that he said this year is gonna be his last year a Valorant pro :(

Let's be honest that their play is so inconsistent, right after Meteor left the team. I agree that t3xture, Munchkin, and Karon are great, and undoubtedly Ash and Suggest also could hit some shots too but still, they got overpowered by DRX and T1 who have better players at the moment. But let's see how it goes because team can change and grow while in the tournament, and I hope it will be a good change somehow.

Kinda hard to say. I feel like DRX is always dominant at the beginning of the tournament but suddenly they turn sour at the most important games, mostly at the playoffs. Why do I feel like DRX always opens their cards and then don't have any backup card that makes them kinda inflexible? Meanwhile T1 has experienced players from different teams and they can grow within the tournament, so they play more = they get even better. So I think T1, man.

Jinboong? Bad day or what...

Jason and Aaron need elp :(

bro, istg it's better for G2 and TL vs T1 and DRX but it's scripted af, what am I expecting... they should just eliminate both teams

bro, they ban it because everyone already learns about their gameplay in that map after winning 26-0 there.

oh no, actually :(

I don't hate him but I can understand why people prefer SSeeSS over gyen, since I haven't seen gyen's value in the team so far 'till now. But I hope gyen can prove us wrong.

RRQ had 19 first kills on Haven as well... but nt! it's always RRQ and overtime, man :(

RRQ and overtime man... but GG to both teams!

if only gyen isn't sick, it's gonna be a good LAN experience for him before the league starts :(

It will start in an hour apparently.

bro xdd

it's starting already? D:

i loooove this kind of take, reminds me of the time where everyone doubted Karon in GEN.G because he appeared out of nowhere. and wdym getting rid of Meteor? it was his choice to leave the team and to not renew the contract with them as well

yeah they did announce him for split 3, that's why people had been saying that it's impossible for him to join any t1 team but surpriseddd i guess

omg omg omgggg please <3

What am I watching...

I already read that before but I don't quite get like which part is implicitly saying that 2 teams can ascend naturally from the ascension to league in the same year?

Oh, I didn't know about 2 teams ascending, where did they mention it? I'm clueless about it.

Kinda reminds me of last year's incident with The Guard. I feel bad for the players themselves ngl, hopefully they can find their place to go. But it's just funny reading Leo Faria's tweet last year:

The second solution we considered was promoting the runner-up M80, however, that would also create questionable precedents. The point of Ascension is to reward performance, and as great and talented as M80 is, qualifying a team that didn’t win the tournament defeats that purpose. Promotion is earned in-game, not out of it.

Here's the link if you want to read it fully. Anyway, congrats to BOOM~!

huggggggggg from far 😭💖

Really!?

I feel like if he's already 18 this year, ZETA would pick him over yuran.

Thank you so much for this thread, appreciate it. I'm gonna bawl my eyes out if I don't see DFM Xdll, like, he has been sticking to Meiy on ranked like a glue frfr (giving me the GON not going to CR scenario yet playing with Meiy quite a lot back at the time) T___T

alrite, i just accepted it :D

can I still get the invitation?
1282618579
thank you :D:D

he likes his brand as CR and it's not like he wants to stay at t2 forever, but he once said that he prefers to go to league with his own power to prove his worth... but it was last year statement.

please give him better teammates, please~ DFM Xdll or whoever T^T help this guy

I only watched VCJ as well so it's good to know other VCLs from your POV. I want to add a thing about Riddle Order that they consist of 3 young players and 2 experienced players, and their fortitudes yesterday despite being in a pinch of 2-0 needs to be applauded as well because these 3 young players haven't had their LAN debut yet for their official tourney. As much as I watch most of the VCTs, player's mental is really important, no matter how good they are, if they break down before the match ends, it can be just gg already.

try to read the #10 comment. his debut in DFM wasn't good and it kinda put him in his place. you need to know he got a lot of backlashes, but instead of staying still, he decides to bounce back.

sadly it's only an if :( and if they lose the series, just like what #99 said ;-;

exactly this (not really a troll by the way, it was a miss-pick) T^T if they won that, it could be a really high boost of their confidence but thank goodness they stand still until the 4th map

only 1st place on every league, the play-in is only for EMEA I think

he got a watch instead lmao

OMG I was too excited watching the Pacific finals that I forgot to put the source. Here you go: https://x.com/noezfoxx_jp/status/1814996907271586052

Update:
Streamer "Okinawa ni Iku Tame ni" was banned from VALORANT but the ban was lifted after it was confirmed their accounts were hacked. They will resume activities under the account "NFX Okinawa ni Iku Tame ni #NOEZ."
