The frightening thing is we may not have seen prime fnatic yet don’t forget their literal best map is out of the map pool imagine if pearl was switched with icebox it would be terrifying to a level we have never seen as never has 1 team been the best in the world at 3 different maps at the same time

.

.

Says the one who keeps forgetting what country he’s from and supports the guard

Both Leo and derke and have went this whole tournament so far without using their best agents
Leo’s best agent is sova and derke’s best agent is jett and fnatic have still been winning it’s quite insane how you can reach a final while having 2 players not play their best agents once throughout the tournament until they reach the grand finals

Boaster and ardiis try better next time

.

The ones who managed a fluke was eg the game should never have been that close but eg kept getting lucky time and time again with the spike timings if you say fnatic flukes a win then what are eg that literally relied on luck a lot of the time to make it that close

You really tried sneaking in loud who were arguably the worst performing team at masters tokyo and if you are gonna say it’s just 1 tournament they will play better at masters I can use that same stupid argument about navi and team liquid.
Nrg almost got 2-0ed by team liquid and was lucky that liquid choked haven they also lost to prx with a sub and cloud9 got destroyed by eg and lost to nrg the only 2 teams at the moment who could be considered top teams based on their most recent performances is eg and maybe nrg and for emea you have fnatic and maybe team liquid and for pacific you have prx don’t act like americas dominated masters tokyo and all your teams did the best fnatic, eg and prx were the best performing teams only 1 Americas team can be considered as being at the top level at the moment

I feel like they might play it just to unleash derke we all know how hungry he must be feeling to play jett this tournament so I could see them let it through plus they are most likely confident that derke can take down demon1 they put up similar number while derke was only playing raze so I would favour derke in the jett head to head

Plus boaster said he wanted to show them dominance so I think fnatic will go into that series fully serious right from the start no messing around in fact I even think they will let fracture through and beat them on it to completely crush eg’s mental for the next map after fracture to make sure they secure the win

You are overestimating eg fnatic don’t care who their opponent is they will fight anyone on any match an example of taht is loud at lock-in they left ascent open and won only the 2nd ever team to do that plus the fracture game was a lot closer than people think as eg got very lucky in the 1st half they defused the spike with less than 0.2 seconds left and after that round they went on to win the rest of the rounds that half because they gained the momentum but even with that the map still ended 13-9 if that 1 round was different and fnatic won it they would of won fracture

They won’t beat them on those 3 maps as they lost split while derke was playing bad as long as he plays good they won’t win and also haven and ascent they will struggle a lot and probably wont win on a good day because fnatics good day completely suppresses eg’s good day especially considering derke will finally be on his best agent jett don’t forget seek hasn’t played jett all tournament so he will be very hungry on those 2 maps as he will finally be able to play his favourite agent

Then you are an idiot he literally tore apart that optic team who were named envy at the time in grand finals almost on his own he was the main reason it was 3-0 and envy didn’t get any maps plus he literally has 1 of the top 5 highest acs this tournament he pulled of the most insane ace to save his team at champions.
If you don’t think he’s in the goat category your insane and you either don’t watch valorant or have some sort of mental problems

Let’s put it like this eg have to win their map pick in the grand finals because the 1st and 3rd map will most likely be lotus and bind and we all know how good fnatic are on those maps especially lotus

They’ve been getting worse ever since that final against fnatic and I think the org only looked at no maps dropped and thought we are the best we don’t need to use any more money on coaching staff or anything like that while ignoring the fact that fnatic already exposed some weaknesses in the grand final taking 2 maps to ot and the final map ending 13-11 sentinels were ahead of everyone else but they were already getting pushed it’s naivety that has put sentinels in the current state they are in

Low key everyone is talking about Leo on split because he was a literal monster but boaster was the player that turned that map around as once he starting actually getting kills fnatic managed to stop eg’s momentum in the 1st half Leo was definitely mvp but boaster was playing good on split and I genuinely think if boaster hadn’t started to heat up fnatic would of lost split

.

Mce almost single-handedly carried plat chat in their power rankings imagine if he had not been there

Loud does not develop metas the best that’s fnatic they have been consistently changing the meta on multiple different maps for a long time even before loud created a valorant team or at least started competing in international tournaments.
Yes loud has developed quite a few metas but fnatic has developed even more than them and over a longer time frame as well so that really doesn’t explain it especially as I don’t think loud's harbor viper comp is as good as people think it is as fnatic the current best team in the world has been ignoring it and when nrg attempted to use a modified version against fnatic on bind they got torn apart

He said talent pool bit teams if you were to compare each team in the Americas to emea just based on individual talent emea would destroy Americas.
it’s just that hardly any of the teams can figure out how to play as team and actually play with a little bit of structure but if you genuinely think Americas has a better individual talent pool you are insane.
if you want to look at individual talent some t2 emea teams have multiple players who are on the same level as t1 Americas players based on individual talent it’s just Americas teams at the moment are playing with structure and aren’t letting their egos clash to much once emea teams learn how to work together they will surpass Americas

Also mini has been creating and affecting the meta for longer and more consistently than anyone in valorant history plus potter has said that eg’s style of play is based off of fnatic’s play style so mini is pretty much potters teacher so potter can’t be the best

He’s American what do you expect they are dreadful at geography they keep claiming Russia and Turkey aren’t in Europe and it’s the same as them claiming Brazil when Brazil is in South America while most of the population of Russia lives on the European side and most countries on earth recognise Russia as a European country.
It’s also the same for turkey they are widely recognised as a European country by most of the world as well it’s just Americas don’t seem to understand basic geography and are too arrogant and believe they are always right that they ignore everyone else and decide which continent are country is under even though the rest of the world recognises both Russia and turkey as European countries sure they have parts in Asia but they classified as being in Europe so in conclusion gambit was a European team

You say that but if navi play as bad as they were playing at masters anything can happen don’t forget eg were once thought of as the one of the worst teams in franchising and look at them now all the emea teams have at least 1 or 2 great individual player or players on their team if they start actually using these players right you never know what could happen.
I mean look at koi their team is stacked sheydos, starxo and trexx as well as a pretty good igl and a duelist that is when he’s playing his best he is actually pretty decent as well if they sort out their role issues I guess is what I would call it and start to work as a team they should be pretty good

Mini is the goat in my opinion no one has consistently affected the meta for as long and as much a him plus he managed to do what a lot of people considered impossible get a team full of star players and make them work together very quickly and to a ridiculously high level
He us the goat of valorant coaches imo even potter said that a lot of inspirations for eg’s playstyle comes from fnatic mini is the goat of coaches in valorant

Tbf you did beat fnatic the 1st time you played them at champions 2022 and pulled an insane comback verses gambit as well

But that’s not what I’m saying, I’m saying they would never have even gotten to overtime without som and in that very same round he is the reason it even came down to a 1v1 as well yes he made a misplay but if his team was playing better and not relying on him soo much it would not of even gotten to ot so that would not of happened

Marved is the igl though

I’m not sure that eg game I think will give the fnatic players a reminder that they are not invincible so I think they will come into the grand final even stronger no messing around and making the stupid mistakes they were making plus whether we get a good game depends on if eg or prx can win their map pick as fnatic are not losing lotus or bind although the score on fracture looks like eg dominated it was in fact very close it was a single round in the 1st half that caused eg to win when they defused with less than 0.2 seconds left as that round gave them the momentum and they ended up winning all the rounds left in the 1st half it’s only gonna get tougher for eg now that fnatic will get more footage on them

Low key I feel like he might make eg better if demon1 keeps performing to the low level he has been replace demon1 with som and move jawgemo back to duelist I feel like they might be better as he is the 1 that is actually holding them back at the moment so if demon1 continues to underperform it might actually be a good move

I’m an emea fan just that I feel sorry for him that’s he’s getting all the blame when he’s been carrying them at masters tokyo and carried them at lock-in as well

Imagine if som left nrg and went to sentinels in the current double controller meta they would be unstoppable the only problem is zekken is playing great and tenz was starting too play good as well in last few matches of Americas league and realistically speaking they would be the only 2 they could replace given the roles and such

Not since Americas league since lock-in without som they most likely would if lost icebox to koi and wouldn’t of had such a close series with loud at lock-in either

people blaming som for the loss but he was the best player if the other members were actually performing it would never have gotten to the point of ot just like against fnatic he was lmsot single-handedly carrying nrg on fracture but there’s only so much 1 player can do against a team like fnatic
So in conclusion I feel like som deserves a better team

How are apac and na most consistent when emea has been in 6 out of 8 finals making even being the only region to have a final with 2 teams from the same region and also at another event having a team come 1st and 4th in the same event and the only 2 international tournaments where they didn’t get to the final was the tournament where fpx couldn’t go and fnatic had to play with 2 subs and also the 2nd champiosn both times they didn’t make it to the final was when optic and loud were in the final other than those 2 times an emea team has always made it to the final the emea region is by far the most consistent

None of the regions has a good 5th place team furia, leviatan, 100thieves and sentinels are bad they are so predictable especially the 1st 3 they play way to structured or way too loose to a point where it becomes obvious what they are going to do
Pacific their teams are far too loose they throw away soo many rounds they should be winning the only team who can play that play style to a high and consistent level is prx
There should only be 14 teams 4 from emea, pacific and Americas as well as 2 from china and when the Chinese league is created which riot is probably going to do give them 4 slots as well only then should 16 teams be going as no region will have more than 4 teams at a time that are genuinely good

Sentinels, nrg and faze clan is more toxic though

Which fan base is not on this site

This makes no sense it’s not just fnatic fans pretty much every fan base on this site is insufferable you act like canticle fans are the worst as well when nrg and sentinel fans exist and not to mention faze clan fans stop acting like it’s only fnatic fans it’s EVERY teams fans that are like this it’s just what happens when you make a site where EU, NA, SA, Oceania and Asia can talk to each other and where competition is involved

I think personally think fnatic has not just the best team but most complete team they have the 2 of the most aggressive players in the world that will sometimes just decide to try and 1v5 or 1v4 the enemy team even though they have teammates alive in derke and alfajer.
Then they have 2 of the most solid players that play quite passive that while also being able to
Be aggressive they always manage to make the right decisions hardly ever overheating in chronicle and Leo which in my opinion is great as you would wnat your 2 support players alive as long as possible so you can have util still available at the end of the round
And then finally boaster who is a bit in the middle he’s the middle ground of the team he is not passive but also not aggressive either and i think this is the most underrated part about fnatic as boaster is the balance that the team needs to be able to function as well as it does as he can both control alfajer and derke preventing them from overheating too much while also being able to make sure that they are able to use the passive play styles of chronicle and Leo to somehow keep up with the ultra aggressive play style of derke and alfajer

Sorry for writing so much you don’t have to read it’s not really about the topic of the post

They barely won fracture when the game was close at the start a single round determined the winner of map 2 when eg defused the spike with less than 0.2 seconds left on the spike and I think they won every round after that in taht half or at least they only lost 1 at most

c9 better qualify or how else is fnatic gonna complete the bingo card of na teams so they better not disappoint

I feel like we are all seeing this wrong if breeze comes back and ascent gets removed fnatic will be unstoppable breeze has literally been described as a sun battle map fnatic literally have the best aimers in the world at the moment how are liquid gonna beat fnatic on breeze with chronicle, Leo and alfajer now sure liquid have added redgar, nats and sayf but in terms of pure aim they are not much better than the previous team liquid so they will be about the same on breeze anyway

It is luck don’t act like it’s calculated the only reason eg win fracture was because of luck the round that started eg’s momentum had less than 0.2 seconds left if they lost that round they would of lost at leadt 3 more rounds that half eg were lucky to not get 2-0ed as that 1 round decided whether we were going to map 3 or not

that’s because your a Brazilian that supports a emea team so you can see things from both a Brazilian perspective and a non Brazilian perspective or in other words you are simply built different

That’s how they managed to create lotus by using their experience from creating the other maps

If icebox was in the map pool along with lotus and bind while
fnatic gets 2 map bans they would literally be unstoppable because even if they lose 1 of the 3 maps of icebox, bind and lotus they just have to win 1 of the other 2 which they can just hard anti strat their opponent riot actually did good in removing icebox as it means other teams actually have a chance against fnatic

Mistake ignore it

I feel like they already got that over with in the eg game and they survived so unless 1 of them gets sick which it’s fnatic so it will be a miracle if they ever play when every player is fully health they will be fine

I mean every time victor plays chronicle he’s goes missing and everytime crashies faces Leo he goes missing both times they have a 7-0 map record against them and they are the so called greatest fire in valorant history even com and Ethan performed better against chronicle and Leo than crashies and victor also isn’t it strange how last year ardiis was performing well for fpx he joins fns and he performs worse fns doesn’t understand how to use ardiis and people call angel overrated when ardiis performed great under him but under fns he doesn’t perform that good an important part about being an igl is also using your players effectively just look at boaster, boostio whoever is igling prx

Sorry for making it long you don’t have to read it
