yes, he beat the dynasty astralis roster in esl one 2019 for the win

ironically vanity was also at this event and he got grouped LMAOOO

i would have to say g2

unironically yeah, they were the GOAT north american org in so many different games before they fell off

i mean personally? i’d rather be successful than have aura

they did have a better season

two lans made + two regional wins

how 😭 that’s literally what happened

my two cents is that this baiter argument is dumb, if you have teammates willing to bait for you because they believe you’re capable of getting their trade (especially on attack in which a 4v4 favors them) then why not use that

aspas and derke are both top-tier players that 8/10 times can guarantee a trade while also taking space, and obviously it works well for both teams

fnatic has had better overall results this season

lev outplaced them at one event and had less regional wins than them

2024 nrg

dapr

nAts is NOT underrated
famsii played like two games and he looked good in both so i wouldn’t say he’s underrated
everyone else i can see

how good was kamo this year, was he just fully anchored by his team

keep going, this is actually pretty entertaining

no WAY you’re still mad over something i said over a day ago LMAOOOOOO

man are these really the only threads i’m gonna see on this site for the next 6 months

i don’t know why people are so upset over edg winning, why does everything have to be a mickey mouse or a fluke? why does everyone want two or three teams to be dominant the whole year?

emea for no trophies / cn for lack of placements outside of edg
dfm

🤣🤣🤣

W KING OF LURK

my country is in shambles…….

it’s been likely for gen.g to win worlds for the past three years, they just always choke in playoffs

edward owns rito games

who is rejecting eg 2023’s run

what’s got you posting stuff like this? fnatic lost a week ago, the event is over, just relax

kk was performing, his team was just not doing well

tell me you haven’t watched prime less without telling me you haven’t watched prime less

i call it the tism hold

this gimmick is kinda mid, brother

eye test says that while miniboo can entry, he is unable to get openers and it costs his team crucial rounds

hilarious how you can dish it out but can’t take it, guess i can’t expect anything less from vlr

i just don’t know why they’d force him on duelist when he’s been arguably the best controller in the region

this just feels like 2024 all over again with nrg favoring already accomplished players instead of players that are great on their respective roles

also does s0m play neon? i’ve never seen him run it

don’t see why not

i am really not sure about this team, no one here plays raze or neon

weren’t you complaining a week ago about people shitting on miniboo for his poor performance?

1. RieNs
2. CHICHOO
3. t3xture

chichoo is right behind him but meteor is a demon bro

fuck i forgot about flashback

best site-holder :: Meteor
best rookie :: yetujey/Flashback
most improved :: tex
best aim :: benjyfishy
all-star :: Meteor

yes, has about the same range as kj ult

i mean yeah, it was only a matter of time before china started getting better, the region is developing as they get more reps against better regions

for now its only edg though, they seem to be the only cn team that can hang rn and its been that way for the past two years

true but this guy acts like he’s physically repulsed by fnatic’s existence when their name is mentioned, it was funny at one point now it’s exhausting

as for the players i’d probably put derke in the top 20 and no one else, they did top their region twice with him being their best player

god your hate boner for this team is so boring, find another gimmick

i suppose for the first half of the year i’d agree, but since his switch to smokes he has looked like the best controller in the world, it was a really good switch and his impact in stage 2 and champs was massive

i understand him not being on your list, though, he had a very slow start to the season

well eeiu gets a pass at being a baiter because he’s an initiator, he’s not supposed to take duels like duelists/sentis do

placements can be switched around but generally i agree

i would have smoggy in my top 20 though

nrg because s0m and optic core

personally i think paris will be insane, probably the best crowd at a champs event yet

bangkok: FUR
toronto: TH
paris: DRX

the problem is you’ll only have this crowd when brazilian teams are playing, and with the state of the brazilian scene now i don’t think it’ll be very good if they decide to host any lane there

european lans often give the best energy, i remember istanbul was electric

the thing is ardiis was signed before the chamber nerfs as a direct replacement for yay, which was a good option because ardiis was possibly the second best chamber in the world at the time

with chamber being completely fucked it made the roles a little tough so it took them a bit to figure shit out

personally i think vyse flash will be utilized more as a cypher cam on attack, wherein you immediately deploy the flash to see if an area is being contested early

the flash is visible from like 10 steps away, but you don’t have to be looking at the flash itself for you to be able to activate it. it also has a pretty decent range and can be placed in pretty hidden places, kinda like a cypher cam

i also should mention that it has a sound cue for when you flash someone (like a skye flash) so it can also gather info
