nah he was better than Cortezia in BR i was shocked he bombed out in Tixinha

Xenom showed promise, almost did that 1v5. tbf they were giving it to him but he also looked more comfortable than usual

they won with Txozin on this map to knock 100T out of playoffs

-hype
+oderus

this team is solid

bro oderus carried them to the comeback fym

i’m tryna find some defenses for them but it’s hard asf

i dislike the guy but let’s not get TOO crazy Neesera was a generational flop

he’s super good he’s been hella promising for a while now

I think if they wanna get to Champs they need to sign someone like AnGuiSt or a really solid anchor cus they’re making her play anchor and entry and when it doesn’t work just throwing themselves

yeah no ur right there they can’t play around flor the whole time but also giving her an operator and sending her to god knows where isn’t the solution, they literally just need one other person who can put up numbers that’s all Molsi is a really solid caller

yeah he’s always been good, they just need more firepower. It’s absurd how little they have and batujnax isn’t necessarily gonna bring it either, this feels like Flor deadlifting with really good utility by Molsi

was pretty much what I feared, she had insane highlights but is also stuck on truly an abysmal team. she’s the only one who can awp so they force her to be passive on defense it’s so annoying. Give her a vandal and sign a chamber or something it’s so unreal how she made all this space and no one but Molsi capitalized off of it

they should’ve signed Aproto or something there’s like 100 better sentinels in the world and you have a free import slot

she literally won a 1v3 you dumb fuck

SHES SO GOOD

look at the past few, he was barely holding his own in ascension

CGN put him in contract jail

bro is not cut for this league. don’t know how he didn’t get replaced, so many better players he is just not strong enough. haven’t seen him do well in YEARS since like Alliance

she’s dropping 23

you can kill the man but not the idea

Apeks has been owning in scrims so hopefully that translates, just hope it isn’t her vs 9

this is also his second official with the team. so he’s gonna take some time. he looked solid vs Wolves but def lacked this series. imo this team is the 3rd best in China behind EDG and Trace, maybe wolves is 4th by champs but im losing confidence in them

watch RRQ academy Splash showcased how Tejo SHOULD be played

he’s not perma quitting, getting married just kinda occupied a lot of ur time ya know. he just took a break

Okay i’m behind on China so I’ll vod watch (i’ve only really seen SpiritZ ace and Ezeir) but figured i’d tally the like debuts of tier two players and how they performed in their first official. Will rank later on probs.

1. Lewn
   Dude was silent all off season but turned into the second coming of cNed the first two maps, he’s mechanically super talented just overheats a little, and his awp is not that strong.
2. Sociablee
   Everything LewN can’t cover Sociablee does, dude was a DEMON map 3 and won them the game with his plays for the most part. He’s an insane awper and solid in the clutch’s
3. PROFEK
   Some of his smoke usage was questionable but get an outlaw in this guys hand and he’ll farm. Started off slow but showed his potential later on.
4. Westside
   Mechanically the dude is ABSURD. his bullets just magnetize to heads, his utility is solid as well and was the only one besides Cloud who did shit on GX.
   5.Avez
   He is a flex god so far, giving N4RRATE a lil so far with his aim and utility being super team oriented but capable of dominating in his own right. Really glad to see him do so well.
   6.Ruxic
   The biggest shock of the debuts so far, he was so good on Fire Flux but ngl his utility and shooting were just off. You saw moments where he locked in but overall he cost them some pivotal rounds especially on Lotus. Hopefully it’s just nerves and not a sign of things to come.
5. Koalanoob
   For the shit he was getting sloughed dude was the sole reason his team won some rounds. He was the best person on that team today besides maybe Shao. felt like he only played poorly as a result of the team not necessarily his own talent, although his reliance on the op is as potent as ever.

Done with Day 1 EMEA rookies, tomorrow is the gauntlet LMAO

They didn’t play him well just used him for the hype, if ur gonna use Tejo ya better combo him with stuff, like raze and Tejo are incredibly strong, same with Deadlock. You can’t solo initiator Tejo though and rely on Vyse for flashing and one recon

Avez with an incredible debut

his evolution is incredible

it’s so infuriating

kids a prodigy

is he? he has like 1/10 amazing games but in general dudes just not been at the highest level

I stg he looks good when he’s on duelist but Purp0 yoinked the role, and he’s just not good enough to be playing duelist instead of him making tomaszy worse on smokes.

i think it’s like 16

cosmetic stun moment (holy shit)

Wyatt’s alt account

Apeks were 15-1 in a scrim without their full roster scrims are worthless

Wolves look LOST. They’re still shooting (sometimes) but holy shit the calling was atrocious. SiuFatBB was not calling well. I still have Wolves and XLG making Bangkok so it’s not the end of the world but Wolves need to lock tf in if they’re gonna beat EDG/NOVA

ruh roh Wolves look rough

My pickems might be cooked bro Wolves are gonna lose to NOVA

i’d rate XLG and wolves as probably the new top 3 alongside EDG, like they’re REALLY good compared to their previous iterations while FPX kinda flounders a bit

these guys are INSANE, JDG are so stupid kicking Viva

slowly was cracked in ascension, he’s highkey a demon

VIT is definitely superteaming (19-3 into 0-5)

Apeks doing good? this is hype (not for hype, just for flor)

first outlaw skin i’m copping

yeah he seems fine E is overtuned rn it seems but having little to no flash or recon is fine

yay griefers have a new agent to play

Welcome back Breach Afterahock

the only one that is an upgrade is KC, the colors are FIRE

go to the VCT Americas pretty regularly, was there for the Jawgemo ace and shit. live near the studio so it’s super nice commute and really fun!
