understandable, I would even understand KangKang if it was just fmvp, but nobody deserved a shout

you saw nothing (thanks)

Trace are very map-dependent, but they look very strong on those maps and have the skill to improv, wouldn't be surprised if they played better at Bangkok than they did at champs

watching China has been very rewarding tbh, but my sleep schedule is straight horrible

there is a reason I put nobody as the picture for this one, dude was robbed for finals MVP, but also can't blame them choosing KangKang cause of how important he is to the team's success

Thanks for the reminder on Rare Atom, they slipped my mind, fixed!

you would not believe how unlucky this timing was, but I think this was still a story worth telling. even other ascension teams who had good runs two years in a row didn't have entirely new rosters like Apeks.

i write articles sometimes

goated comment

they legit have kyrie, lebron, and jordan all on one team, how is that fair

awesome, biank just owns americas and its amazing

thanks for the help, fixed!

s0mpai and pu-chan are back

i would suggest 'slightlydelusional100tfan'

clean

not regional bias, just tired east coast man trying to watch pacific content (fixed, thanks)

prob gonna change the title anyway after the second game since this post will cover both, not a big deal

changed it, but I still hold that the series wasn't close after map one

the second two maps were nothing but Gen.G stomping on Lev, there are such things as close 2-1s, and this series was not that

sayaplayer just fit that og The Guard roster so well man

true, but BeYN himself calls himself that

i mean, in a way, it was a breeze for FUT (fixed)

you didn't see anything (thanks)

(you saw nothing but thanks)

do you have to add your nametag to your post? lol

my b, fixed

DFM are champs favourites honestly

first 13-0 in VCT 2024 though

FUT are anything but an f-tier team

No problem, now go win Shanghai

he does indeed make me happy when times are gray

When I wrote upset, I went less with who was playing better and more with who people were expecting to win, which obviously was a little skewed with how big of a fanbase Sentinels has. My bad, I do agree that Gen.G looked better than Sentinels so far all tournament long, but I thought with the map veto (like many others) that Split was a guaranteed Sentinels win, especially against double duelist. I'll take it on the chin though, and thanks! Still adding more to this soon.

Yeah, it's a minor upset, if anything. Changed the title.

fixed, sorry about that!

indeed, polska gurom

(i totally didn't make that mistake and fixed it)

not this one

you didn't see anything (thanks)

Unless they lose to G2, and G2 beat MIBR. Then G2 would be 2-0, and a 2-0 team automatically wins the play-in.

I don't think that's gonna happen though.

Updated with all three games, that was a long day but a lot of entertaining valo

updated, time to sleep

dude it's so late and there's two more games to go

pray for me chat

good catch, fixed!

Boom, updated with all the deets. Also, if you have the time, rewatch that Sentinels/100 Thieves match, pure entertainment.

i imagine furia fans just tuned out when that happened, either literally or metaphorically, that was rough

This post will be longer and will cover the Sentinels/100 Thieves match too, but already nice to see what I would consider a minor upset regionally.

Updated this with the full info, thanks again for reading

also OXY might be the new Demon1

I have hope for Boo and MiniBoo personally

god, I hope not, last thing I need on my plate is a court case about false advertising when it's riot's fault they didn't see this storyline and design a match on it

also, there is no way these two teams don't match up at least once this year

weivy leak:

I actually tried to ask xccurate about his younger bro (f0rsakeN) and he replied about Jojo since I mentioned him. He said that, and I quote, "I'm going to be completely honest, I think if my younger brother really focuses on becoming a Valorant pro-gamer, he has the ability to become the best version of me and Jason. Maybe he can surpass us for sure."
