decrease Omen smoke duration to 12s

what in the fuck

Good job king, enjoy the money

Guys can we make some NOISE for China??? WOOOOHOOO!!!

BUMP

pokimane is diamond currently with a peak of 90rr in immortal 1

i peaked immo 180rr ish (which is not high by any means) but my average rank placerment is around a3/i1 every act so yes i do clear pokimane. and diamond elo is very easy if you played in (atleast low) immortal

i literally smurf pokimanes elo but whatever

She's ass and probably has 0 interest in vct.

W schizo episode

You will be an easy target but does it matter if you hit the head first? Ofcourse thats a big requirement, but honestly just boot up deathmatches, train your crosshair placement and go for as many one taps as possible.

I highly advise you to check out some pros play deathmatches

Yeah nun wrong with india but i dont think we will see an event there before 2026...

Lot of casual racism, not many viewers will go there, infamous food poisoning, tech is questionable (convergence 2023), there are 0 good indian teams so crowd wont be as crazy

Ive been talking to a friend of mine about the primmie tech

I personally think its a very niche thing only players who are already fundamentally on a high level should be using

Generally this rapid movement stuff is hard to deal for players in lower elos. All this movement yap i hear all the time is kinda counter effective (in my humble opinion), because player will not only have to worry about enemy moving but his own playermodel aswell.

Im gonna tell you how i aim. Whenever i see an enemy i just stop moving. None of this crouch and strafe shit. And then i just aim and shoot. If my crosshair placement is off, i will try to track the enemies head.

Its how Demon1 aims and its very effective and consistent. Check this video out:https://youtu.be/PUpW4odqMYs?si=QSjA5nEZzGiInBcz

Brotha why the FUCK would you let it affect you if you die through a smoke. Its unlucky, unlucky things happen in everyday life. If something happens out of your control, you simply dont have to think about, let alone let it affect your mental.

Focus on the important thing, did i take this fight correctly, am i playing with my team, am i crouchspraying like a bot instead of one tapping like demon1

Yes but i think as a region all 4 teams are relatively strong compared to the many weak points other regions have. I think BLG KRÜ game will be the decider to prove this statement

1. This might sound absolutely ridiculous but im ready to say that China might be the best overall region in Champs right now. EDG is lookin good, Trace looks exciting and FPX is genuinely crazy good they just have an unfortunate group... And for BiliBili, well theyre Bilibili.

Americas has a weak point in SEN, KRÜ
Pacific has a weak point in PRX (they look horrible), TLN
EMEA has a weak point in FUT (sorta), VIT

2. This is not really a hot take, but more of an unpopular take but RieNs is the best player in this whole tournament.

3. trexx is tied to RieNs as best sova in the world

4. EDG will place Top 3

Drop your takes below 👇

Nah fnc fans are diehard fans they wont just move onto th
EMEA fans will tho

Bump

W yap

unstoppable roster holeh

🐐

Do MiniBoo and Boo both speak russian/have russian relatives? I know lithuania was part of USSR but i dont wanna get political here.

EU isnt bad, i think theyre really good, but it just seems that a vast majority of talent stems from the cis and turkey region

Lol they looked a lot better since they signed purp0, they genuinely couldve had a shot if they hadnt choked stage 1 that hard

The main factor whether a EU team will be good is by looking how many Russians and Turks they have. Lets call this measure RT

Ranking

1. FNATIC - 4 RT
2. Heretics - 2 RT
3. FUT - 5 RT (But its full turkish team so rule doesnt apply, they still clear Vitality tho)
4. Vitality - 1 RT

This would explain how Vitality despite unrealistic circumstances qualified to Champs, because the only other contender was KC and they have a total of 0 RT!!!!
This would explain why NaVi 2023 was better than NaVi 2024, because they had one RT more than this year (cNed).

So if you want to improve teams (looking at Liquid, KOI, GiantX, KC) you should look into investing into a RT or two!

maybe its because its in the same group and its the next matchup like what 😭

SEN is cooked 💀💀😭

Wrong, their peak will be in 7 hours and 5 minutes vs GenG. MiniBoo will have recovered his mental fully, Wo0t will be wooting and benjy will be fishing. #VIVAHERETICS

Heretics is very similar to EG 2023
Nobody expected them to be good, became better over time

Madrid - First Rounded
Shanghai - 2nd
Champs - 1st

LOCK//IN - First Rounded
Tokyo - 2nd
Champs - 1st

Counterpart to story: GenG = 2023 FNC
FNC Placed top in everything upto Champs
GenG might do the same 🤔

Ok but Satire apart i genuinely think its gonna be G2 following the logic

Shit during kickoff (just like eg in lock in)
G2 get icy, EG get Demon1
Slowly creep towards masters
3rd in Shanghai, 2nd in Tokyo
Potential to be best team in the world

W brainrot

not a thing anymore sadly

Aiming is a mandatory course in high schools

Which past lil bro? EMEA only played china so far in champs. Am i supposed to make up matches?

Negative score is crazy 😭

How is emea supposed to beat other region when they have only played china

Also

LEV FUT

I mean, its not like im going to sit day for day rewatching entire tournaments. But when you have a valorant off season of 6 months, rewatching a few iconic matches can fill the gap.

Idk about yall but i just like to rewatch vods from old tourneys. Pretty much all the champs have nice ones

How so? I think his humour and his reactions are very amusing to watch. His community is a little cringe tho

The problem with tarik is, i dont find him as entertaining anymore. His reactions seem bland, he doesnt seem to care about the game, and his guests are very varied (which is good in a way that its not repetetive, but also results in some very boring/cringy watchparties)

Imo his moments of getting pissed are very repetetive but i can see why he's funny to some. I agree his community is boring tho

Im sure that sgares has great knowledge of the game but i never watched him so i cant give a valid rating of him.

I mean this is more of a personal list, not to take objectively. People who dont care much about entertainment but rather knowledge will find sliggy and tmv more appealing. Id rather have entertainment tho, for knowledge i watch Platoon videos after the games 😀

I forgot ardiis

also TH can’t just throw out miniboo cause his brother is the IGL

I dont think this is the case at all, but Heretics are genuinely a good org and they care about their players and will stick with this team long term and make big out of it.

Tarik

Household name of valorant, used to be peak in 2022 but fell off hard (or maybe it just seemed so because there were less popular watchparties back then). Reactions seem fake and doesnt even seem to be focused on the games anymore. And his guests are huge hit or miss imo. 4/10

FNS

Great analysis, funny inside jokes. But shameless when it comes to ads; OH NO GUYS I STARTED ADS (marved level acting) 8/10

Shanks

This might sound stupid but holy this guy is entertaining. Chat is funny, he is funny. Analysis is non existent because hes braindead but everything else makes up for it. And his reactions especially when EG is playing are just gold level comedy. 10/10

Curry

Funny, great reactions, actually watches the games, great analysis (not as good as FNS tho) 7/10

ardiis

Funny af. You won't get any analysis but the reactions and the yap is worth it. Doesn't stream all the games tho sadly. 7/10

Sliggy

Best analysis you can find, but i dislike the atmosphere, i would fall asleep listening to him talking and his chat isnt really exciting. And his reactions are basically non existent. 6/10

TMV

He seems passive agressive and also has a hate boner for SEN (make of that what you want), his analysis is okayish. Humour Not my cup of tea. 3/10

Subroza

His personality is aight but he barely watches the games unless its NA playing. Last time i tuned into his stream he was literally staring at his phone and talking to chat about universities and where to study. He literally forgot he was watching a game. 2/10

Ok thx

So underdog is relative to another team wheras dark horse is for a whole event

So if i understand

Underdog: Nobody expects them to achieve anything and they probably wont
Dark horse: Nobody expects them to achieve anything but are capable of going far?

So talon is an underdog and trace is a dark horse

thanks for ruining my day

title, explanation pls

Lets go, smoggy wouldve dropped 75 if it went to map 3

SEN maps against GenG: 0
India maps against GenG: 1
