BBL isnt 2023 BBL anymore. they will mow down any team not called "vitality" or "team heretics" right now in EMEA. im quite certain of that. at least TL doesnt stand a chance.

number 1 TMV hater right here lol. its really not that big of a deal. let him live his life, the only thing he is losing out on when he doesnt stream is more money from ads and subs lol.

no no, chop your fingers off. sacrifice them for the GX win. then kill the children if they still lose.

if the FUT we saw vs vitality wins, fnatic is TERRIBLE.

oh so no more child murder for you? im ok with you losing your finger for this.

uh, vitality is a french org..

... not chokequid

hold up, whats happening?

nah. they are losing 2-0 for sure. lets come back to this in a couple of hours.

these levels of cope need to be studied. GX are losing to TEAM LIQUID on their map pick. in my mind, GX is bottom 4 in the league. team liquid is terrible. how are you even defending GX here>???

you think leo cant do that? he was doing that on 2022 guild very well for sayf.

i hope fnatic drop leo so that vitality can get him. i want the goat trio to be reunited and make the best team on the planet.

but you will be the one who does it. if you poison small children then i wish the worst for you.

dont do that...

ikr, flashback is in the conversation for best sentinel in the world and then there is yay on a bottom 3 americas team... you cant really compare the two.

also how did you never hear of ANDBOX's very own battle sage, yay? he was carrying that team through challengers.

whoa, they just got second place at masters berlin! this team looks really strong!

please dont. i fear that even a wet fart would hit harder than any mic drop you could produce.

ew imagine getting 4 stars and suddenly getting all arrogant, as if you are "elite". you are merely average. below average, even. how shameless of you.

MY GOAT FRAGGER, MY GOAT DUELIST, MY GOAT FLEX, MY GOAT IGL!!! the only thing he isnt my goat for is initiator (trexx) and controller (magoat)

i fumbled... i actually thought FUT had a chance. my pickems were perfect..

unc

i have high standards. i never sell myself short.

100k. actually you could offer me nothing and i still wouldnt go on a date with you. you dont deserve me.

they will NOT beat my goats on vitality!

find out for yourself. its a real rollercoaster.

oh wait i had a feeling it was calypso but i didnt know it passed -1000! when i downvoted it was less than half of that..

nah i remember the most downvoted hit like -350 or something. i forgot who it was though :(

its not better than number 1 bjor fan death bait but its up there for sure. it was just so much fun to read through.

how else would he be able to gain such insightful and meaningful experience to be able to comment on the aesthetics, origin and layouts of the valorant maps? by playing comp? or perhaps by not playing at all. but seriously, i guess he just doesnt have time for valorant anymore ever since he got started with writing 115 pages of nothing for the past 3 weeks.

no way this is too much. im glad that i was able to be a part of this monumental piece of vlr lore. m4 was something else...

Why the fuck are you trying to undermine the people who have actually done this in real life??? You do realise coaching already requires a ton of work, right? It doesn't seem like you understand that, despite so many actual coaches telling you that this much information is unusable to them because they already work on tight schedules. If you think that's the "easy" way out, please try coaching a tier 3 or tier 2 team and report back to us, if you were still able to make these 100 page documents at least once a month and put the information into practice. Idk why you are so adamant in undermining coaches instead of trying to understand it from their POV. you assume that because teams lose more than they win, the problem must lie with the coaching. Do you expect coaches to read these huge documents instead of something like VOD reviewing or preparing and expanding their own playbooks? You sure seem to understand SO much about coaching despite having never done it yourselfm You just seem resentful and bitter that you weren't chosen out of dozens, if not hundreds of potential applications by 100T and you are taking it out on the people who did make it into tier 1 teams as coaches. Smh.

D4v4i being anywhere lower than 3 is a crime. He's so good, and I hate prx so me praising them says a lot

fr, she is useless when you want to play slow or in retake/post plant. its so sad :(

good form on haven, they looked shaky on the other 2 maps.

Americas: NRG, MIBR.
EMEA: VIT, TH
APAC: DRX, RRQ(new)
CN: Wolves, TE

G2 is probably the only team in the world that this applies to. they have zero star players (one if you count 1 singular leaf) but a phenomenal sense of teamwork and fundamentals. they are a very interesting team.

I NEED NEED NEED FLASH REGENS!!! i played skye yesterday on bind after maining skye a year ago, and it was so sad how she became the weakest initiator with that flash nerf. even breach is far better than her, and he is often seen as the weakest initiator.

i will only say the teams i think have a chance of beating VIT from EMEA, as its not fair to compare between regions yet. from EMEA, i see only 2 teams that can beat them in their current forms; FUT or TH. FUT is my hot take, and it is what i have on my pickems. the rest of the EMEA teams dont look strong enough yet.

why not both now and later in the season? you are assuming that GE can only lose games in the early season instead of later.

i will believe it when i see it.

but why has it taken two freaking weeks to take out the trash? pacific scheduling is abysmal, and made worse by the fact that they started last!

i agree. EMEA already has had upsets or near upsets, and the teams look strong so far. Americas has lots of tough matchups early on especially in the LB. china has edg and they lost once to trace which was fun to see, and it was so fast that it felt entertaining even if the game quality was lower (which it wasnt). Pacific schedule is TOO dragged out and slow... and some of the teams look like coughing babies especially ones with high expectations...

if talon upsets, DRX or GENG will get a free ticket to the grand finals lol

GO DRX 2-0 hopefully maybe a 2-1 but i hope drx clutch it up. with the way freeing and hyunmin were playing against NS, if DRX can do that again but flashback back to normal form, then i think they have a really good shot at winning.

I simply LOVE how drx just shot up by 4 or 5 positions on everyone's rankings! From 5th or 6th in the league to second!

I'm SO ready for the announcement: " welcome back, runi/vanity". Or both. That would be hilarious. But I'm pretty sure they both retired or on break so it's not really an option anymore thankfully. Maybe c9 will finally need to pick up new players.

they only are proactive when the n word appears. its like a spawner for them lmao. rightfully so but its only if its really extreme lol. or when a politics thread gets over 50 comments...

this copium is either a weak bait or shameful stubbornness. its not a good look...

good points. there definitely is so much talent in korea tier 2, enough to make a whole separate league out of all the talent there. the issue is pacific is such a massive region, and if korea alone has so much talent, its clear that the entire region that "Pacific" covers is going to be under represented across the board. korea has more talent, yes, but what if its the same case with all the other SEA countries? there may have been talented people that now wont have a chance to flourish because its simply not economically viable? thats what i mean when i say riot has messed up with the SEA region of Pacific. also yes i am aware of the korean talent, i have been watching VCT in korea since 2021, however i didnt watch the tier 2 scene in late 2023/2024 so i cant speak on that. the teams do manage their players very poorly in franchising in the SEA region, like the RRQ shenanigans with their 2023 roster, but riot chose to put those teams in franchising. was there no good alternatives or is that the best orgs that the region has to offer? who knows.
