So liquid basically won a map where they are supposed to lose. Just wow and LMAO.

No SEN bandwagoners hence less people watching the actual game instead of TenZ.

Wholesome moment.

Cuz you can't hate a team that's giving it their all and coming in from a region people said is "unimportant" and despite all that they were humble and confident.

No, EU is just stronger rn.

Amazing run, surprised everyone and made it to play-offs. Hope to see a more improved version of them next year. Congrats to Acend.

Borkum needs to bonkem to make a comeback.

Don't eat and retire your life to monasteries, ez stonks plus less baits and alt accounts.

Another green screen looking skin, honestly not a fan.

To win a war, you gotta lose some battles.

Kiles and Bonecold whiffing like crazy. Meanwhile Zeek and Cned managing to make Acend go ahead.

After they go back home.

Those shots damn

Did you finish your speedrun any % to lose stars?

Shadowisbad really made a new account just to make this post. Damn.

How is a game where only 2 teams can win an event greater than a game where any team can upset or win? Its like saying a few teams have to win and the rest can f off, it kills the whole need of tournament if no other team can come close to being at the top.

Fnatic and Gambit

It felt like ScreaM was trolling with his jett pick, kinda like "look I can fuck around cuz my team is strong AF".

Couldn't participate in NA LCQ because of covid norms, they were simply forgotten after that. Rito said they would compensate but did nothing.

Wide player cards are back, finally.

That was a pure bromance wholesome moment.

EMEA looked hella strong this year after Masters Reykjavik and since the win there SEN started going downhill. Though I feel like 2022 will be an even more interesting year with how many teams have taken practice seriously and have a much better understanding of the game now. This includes NA as well.

I loved their joy and celebration after they won the last round and how their coach came running so fast to them. Made me really happy and honestly I felt so happy to see their hardwork pay off.

Cosplay diff tbh

Don't you remember the rule? Double tap.

This should have given them the confidence they felt lacking. Hopefully they pull back in the coming maps.

That little hope of a comeback could have given them the confidence they needed for the coming maps. Hope they can pull it back.

Coach - Trump
Most important strat - build a wall

Lakia getting trolled by VS.

In masters berlin they were so much better with their fragging and utility play, I can't see even 1% of that here. Sure C9 is looking amazing but VS doesn't look anything like the old VS.

This is not the Vision Strikers I remember from Masters Berlin. Their teamplay is bad, their fights are bad, no trading or pressure creation and just dry peeking. Whatever happened to the utility masters and disciplined Vision Strikers. They managed to get bad and bad since Masters Berlin.

Cloud from NaVi

There's more but I can't think of anyone on the top of my head.

They don't care about winning and making bucks when they can make players and sell them at higher prices than the prize pool.

How?

7. Lose to VS and go back home
8. Make another insane player
9. Sell him at a high price
10. Repeat

Because he grew.

Derke
L1NK
Sacy
Doma

Find 2 good players and shave their head as contract to finish the lineup.
And then have KRU's coach as coach.

Edit - Doma is now signed for being bald.

Make the best team with bald players. #BaldBuff

I wonder if you made Pickems and how surprised you've been since the tournament has become so unpredictable. Thanks for the insight though, I somehow feel like the results could honestly just go in any direction.

gtnJESUS

I wonder how future tournaments will be like? Regions would have caught up even more and it will not be a region dominated game.

Derke - duelist
Sacy - initiator
Keznit - other initiator
L1NK - smokes/sentinel
FNS - igl and sentinel

Can? Yes. Will? Yes. Hotel? Trivago.

Finally thief is signed. Congratulations to all of them. A packed roster.

Lol?

Sentinels giving TSM vibes from the early days. Winning masters and then downhill ride.

Then read + counter

This tournament is so goddamn unique and fun for being the first major, upsets and performances from underdogs and being so unpredictable. Thank you valorant for champions tourney. Congrats to all the teams that made to the playoffs.
