Ntt bothered, just love his username. Its really an amazing name.

Anti meta and just plays one would seriously not expect.

First we had Fnatic and the 3 man flank
Now we have Gambit with 4 man flank and no site control
And then VKS having 3 people under the rafters holding the spike

This is just weird, funny and entertaining.

What if
We had player flairs as well besides team flairs?

Honestly it feels really good to watch close matches that we had in Champions and also how players who are not ex-CSGO pros are doing well.

The fact that so many matches are getting so close with almost every game going to the 3rd map and its not a 1 sided sweep shows that regions and teams have closed in the gap and this makes this tourney really fun to watch.

Though I hope RIOT fix up the many loose ends they have.

Its gtnJESUS, he can't be the grimreaper here.

With how close matches have been, I could say the only team that really looked weak were FS and CR, other than that every team in the tourney has improved a lot or are improving. I can't really say which region is weakest but SEA (FS) and JP are the only regions that are a step behind, but are they weakest? No.

Guys lets not create hate or toxic posts or comments against anyone and enjoy the valorant festival that is champions. Let riot take their decision on ACE vs VK. We don't need to spread toxicity among ourselves and fight among ourselves.

gtn because he's gtnJESUS

I used to think it was VS and TL but after yesterday VS kinda fell off. They didn't feel like the VS that was composed and almost perfect with their plays. FNC on the other hand surprised me. But TL is just way ahead since every player on the team plays so well and in such amazing unison and synergy.

Idc if people call it cringe, it was so good and yep boaster is a gem of the valo world.

Its so amazingly done by him

He's probably creating funny moments at the first ever Valorant Champions, I see it as an absolute win.

But why?

I mean its kinda expected that Gambit would adapt and try to turn the game in their favor, meanwhile VKS making the same mistakes again.

Such a giga chad name, they already won the tournament in my heart

Could've been handled better tbh

I feel like riot's explanation makes sense that an exploit which was used by VK for 6 rounds gives an advantage to VK and was given in the favor of ACE since they had the disadvantage but awarding the last round is really unfair. They need to atleast do the last round by adjusting economy on both sides and redo the map from ACE 12-9 VK. Even if VK have weaker weapons or the ults are not something you can take in consideration here, it would only be fair that they have a chance to play the last round otherwise it's just stolen from them.

They're going to pull a -draken +draken again to buff their wins.

Yes

You spend a lot of time on vlr I was expecting that you would be aware of this happening.

NGL but sentinels look strong they gonna win it all. (that's how most vlr takes are)

But jokes aside I'm curious about V1 with oderus but besides them I kinda wanna watch more matches to actually form an opinion.

Maps are bad when we can't play them or frag on them but when we start to frag and win on a map it becomes a good map. (though there really are some maps that are bad)

Sentinels can frag better than controllers but the thing is you can't win without smokes but can still win without a sentinel.

Cannibalism in esports

Apparently poiz is in C9A so will be fun to watch this match.

There's also YouTube viewership that is often neglected and there are a lot of people who watch the matches on YT in APAC.

Why bench anyone when the team is so good, they've only played VCT 3 and Masters and LCQ together so far and its not like they failed horribly. Sure there are times when a few players fail to perform but benching anyone right now would do them more loss than profit. IMO benching should not be the case but working on the team more with strats and synergy should be the goal of G2.

He also said in a post match interview that there's a lot he has to learn about agents so what we see might not even be his full potential, really curious and excited to see his career as we go further.

No he's not dropped, poiz is in the phase of being developed, as mentioned before they are working on his comms and since LCQ could probably be the last event for the team in this year they are sticking with people who have tournament experience. What C9 does post LCQ is not something that I know but he's a really good player to just drop.

EMEA 1*

"The ability to speak does not make you intelligent." was a line made for people like you.

You broke the world record

He literally played 1 map and its not like he bot fragged either. I don't understand what joy you find in putting bad name to someone who is already feeling responsible for the loss.

With the experience they got now I'm pretty sure we will see an improved VS. All this performance with no exposure was really good. From here they just grow. WP VS.

Given that it was their first international event and they did really well, this makes them even more exciting to watch in Champions. GG VS, you did really well. I'm sure they will be back with more power.

With Nuturn taking in Hyeoni I doubt he would be taken back in because it would either mean someone else needs to back off from the active roster or they would have to play with Lakia as sub/rotations the same way he does in VS now. However TNL esports could actually get him and TNL would actually be an amazing team. Only time will tell what happens but I don't think Lakia would be sent anywhere for now, after all one map doesn't mean he has no place on the team.

"Bad Luck"ia? Maybe he needed some warm-up that he couldn't get in the group stage.

There's FPS_Shaka as well getting around 35k views rn.

I just saw that lol, a costly mistake from vlr.

They played really well today not making many mistakes like last time.

With F4Q losing 3 matches, they are the first team to be eliminated and with that G2 and SEN qualify with G2 being the first EMEA team to qualify.

If it were a double elimination bracket in KR VCT we would see someone other than F4Q. No offense F4Q is good but KR has other serious and better teams that were pushed out.

They should take away your ability to shitpost and trashtalk instead.

I hope to see a winner other than Sentinels because that would make champions more speculative and fun to watch and hype because you'd know that there is someone else besides Sentinels that will give us an amazing champions. And if its to avoid multiple TSM threads then I I'd like someone outside NA to win :P

I remember watching a stream where the interviewer had a talk with mitch and kat and mitch mentioned that they are working on poiz's comms so when his comming gets better he will be on the active roster. For now he is only going to be as a substitute or might even play actively if he is ready.

Here is the link to the stream - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1128302853
