Holyy XLG ftw

I did even as an EDG fan, NOVA is really good

LFG Nova

no way already?

I agree

Nah if you watched him at bangkok, he was looking like the worst player at the tournament. E.g. full flashing a player and missing 10 shots at someone who cant shoot back, costing them the round is just unacceptable. Any other EDG player has never reached the low that S1mon did during Bangkok, wish him all the best though

??? thats crazy smoggy had one slight bad tournament

saw this coming ngl
SWERL is great but this is the best for NOVA

So happy for Stax and Buzz this game is history

omg sickk didnt expect that

Chichoo shuts down comeback attempt to down T1

True people don't know how much he (and the rest of the team) grinds

that's the type of valorant we really want to see

Chichoo might just be the best player in the world no exxageration

It's actually incredible how Chichoo consistently finds the best way to play a clutch and knows his timings down to the second

I think it makes sense to like Chichoo more, he might just be the perfect player. How often do you see him making a wrong decision ever, and as long as you see him on the site you just know he's good for at least one regardless of what they throw at him. Dude watched so much nats it actually made him play like a god

Do you remember them at EA LCQ, their international debut. Ever since I watched that I knew they would be as good as they are today at some point

Ok jokes aside I'm pretty sure they're fine.

Pearl is arguably G2's best map (or maybe Abyss) and EDG were the first to push them that far, I saw a very noticeable difference in G2's setups against specifically EDG - G2 usually really likes assigning specific positions/roles that players must follow e.g. Trent play in secret and stay alive, use this and that util at this moment etc. etc. However against EDG they played far more loose because EDG don't give them any respect whatsoever and could push that person if they are alone and ruin G2's plans of playing 'perfect valorant' You'll notice that G2 actually needed some hero plays to win rounds as well - something they don't usually need. As for EDG their pearl isn't even one of the best maps so it's quite promising that they did that already, the crazy shit that each player can pull off is insane and though some argue you can't keep doing that consistently they kinda do (clutching). If they work a bit more on set strats it's looking great

As for TL I heard other people & analysts say their split is also their best map or at least one of their best coming into Bangkok. I haven't watched them enough to judge it myself because they just pull out the glue regardless at times (OT of split) but the first 2/3 of Split looked fine from them tbh I thought they weren't playing badly at all.

Regardless though, EDG's haven, fracture and lotus are all extremely good.

FORN

nova over trace? wtf are you on, wait nvm your baiting

if you aren't following you clearly don't know anything so why act like you do

dayum nice are you chinese? I'm yet to play much val in cn region so idk these comms

Trace is obviously better than TL

Just tell me you aren't following. If you actually watch the matches you can see how good their protocols are

That's why they always say map 1 is aim warmup

If you mean generally, very high pressure regional competition and companies frequently merging is extremely good for growth - one of the benefits of the firewall for sure since they shut out other american companies

Proud to be chinese 🔥

Nonono its not hindsight the people who have been watching EDG for ages know exactly what AfteR's style was (he wanted them to play like fnatic) and it didn't suit them at all, immediately after changing to muggle they went back to their old style mixed with more experimental stuff.

Yeah ngl there are much better translators out there, some of my chinese friends who grew up in the UK could do a better job. It's painful everytime I hear her translation

Wish her all the best tho and no hate

HAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHA

My humble goats

I think you're right actually like some of the other players look so much more comfortable on the current roles

NOVA IS CRACKED

BerliN is cooked + No Lysoar + No NathanD

wait NOVA is insane

might have to start watching them, heard GuanG is insane

19-17 ?? Is TYLOO finally good now wtf

when does TH play

Trent is so good

Ffs I wanted to see WoodAy1 smurf

Even as an EDG fan I must agree

He actually used to be this good in 2021/2022, coach AfteR made him play a certain way - now he's back to a more comfortable role

In their 8 games BLG has never won once.. rip

Someone study EDG's Haven

They didn't even win bind, haven was crazy tho ngl

Solid 2-0 from EDG, XLG is looking very promising though

TE is the real deal holy shit

Truly all gamers

Yo why do I believe in this team, calling it now they won't be bottom 3

Nah AC was decent not too good tho

It's over..
