no idea but he posted this a few hours ago

hopefully he is signed to a good team (in shadowcorp we trust)

solid. solid asf.

After seeing tomaszy leave KC... this news kinda heals me in so many ways. Purp0 and pipson staying is crazy W

This hurts me so much. I hope he finds a good team man jeez...

esavgabin is not beating T1/RRQ, comparing ascension with tier 1, and thinking teams in tier 1 are as forgiving as ascension is a pretty big mistake.
avg aim on par with top of tier 1, meaning these lot are as good as the likes of something, forsaken, buzz, mako, FB, t3xture, meteor? Nope. other than FETA and Freeing, I don't see others shooting back.
Plus freeing just joined RA, with Korean coach and UdoTan, who has played in china since last year October.
yoman joining RA was also due to his former coach and stew joining RA, who later got picked up by JDG (valanalysis and stew).
I ain't got nothing against wtv you hope the roster to be but its just not realistic and even if it comes true, they don't look competitive enough to bring where GE fans want GE to place.
The owner has no idea about valorant and it bloody shows.

its not just about speaking the language. if they arent comfortable with it, it'll only hinder them in most scenarios. Guess what, t3xture, bazzi, and mon were all able to 'speak' english but t3xture mentioned that it was not comfortable at all and couldn't really 'lock in'. And esavgabin?? . Nah I get what u trying to make but there are more things to worry about when forming a roster that will "work".

• that is not the bare minimum for masters. its not even close to bare minimum

gotta stop mixing nationalities when the selected players are not comfortable with speaking foreign lingo. Didnt work for GE (2023, while it was more than just language issue), did not work for a handful of JP teams since both jp and kr players couldn't perform to their max potential, TLN (2024) had crws translating english to thai, thai to english, frying his brains out.
I know the GE owner wants KR players but he better get his roster right this time.

every year, there are new racist moments by keznit. its a canon event at this point.

champs top 4 games were good, but the ascensions were still a disappointment since last year tbh

hdeqth gave you a pretty good info. Plus, this is from my experience but don't stress too much, sometimes it just naturally comes. Like I somehow made a great bunch of friends without even realising. Be active in discussions and stuff too!
All the best! I hope you have a wonderful time in uni!

JUSTICE. ABOSOLUTE JUSTICE.

when will the patch be live? I haven't been in touch with the game for so long

GENG

region wise, i hope Aus wins the ascension.

fr0st is a fruad

this is vlr's arcane

but its a list for controller so why does shao's consistency which was only on initiator back in 2022 a thing that is considered.

karon out but shao in? No more hotdog for you.

someone fill me in, whats going on

stop doing dr#gs

they can't speak japanese

rb not leaving TEC. confirmed by Rb

i remember him ego peeking and being in weird ahh position until he gets killed and bazzi/ayrin needing to cover him getting killed in the process too. If he doesn't change his playstyle when his team is losing, him being the one leading sounds pretty dreadful

CS was never a hit in korea, even in 1.6
The scene was so small that the 2 team that existed couldn't even find teams in Korea to scrim. The only 'fps' they played was overwatch

pancakes >>>

im not talking about scrims. InvicDeep wrote as if Kr teams only scrim against themselves. Read it properly

korean teams scrim in apac server against other asian teams.
SPG looked much more dominant than DK (they were inconsistent all the time), but that Dplus team was inconsistent, beating BLD but losing to BONKERS. I still think the winner will be either SPG, DSG, or RID.

Swift 2-0 by SPG

you mean that 1 game? and losing against a streamer team? Sin Prisa is one of the best team going into ascension and trust me this is NOT the best possible match up for RNT

dont care about map pool -> GENG still clears.
'Money" is never a factor in determining whos better.

you are repeating yourself and just not reading my points AT ALL.

i dont even know where it all went wrong for you

Mongolia should be part of SEA??? Oh lawd we need geography police. Mongolia is in between China and Russia, and if you know that JP's ping is not good for Mongolia, why would you think SEA is any better 😭

honestly had some pretty big expectations for apoth :(

When we decide which team should be represented as the best, we look at international placements more than regionals and at the end of the day, international placements are the major stats that matter the most. You can't be choking in masters, bombing out with 1 win or no win but wanting to be called the BEST team in 2024 because you won champs.
Champs is the biggest major, for sure. But 2024? EDG's international tournaments leading up to champions was VERY disappointing so its a HUGEEE no for me.

oink oink

Objectively it's GENG. EDG's Masters run was really disappointing and this sort of hinders their chance as being named as the 'best team in 2024'. Them winning champs really boost their worth of being top 3 of 2024 tho.

To be fair, TH didnt get any veto in Masters and Champions grand final, unlike prx who had 2 vetos in both finals if we are looking at international appearances

they are miles ahead of my 5 men queue for sure

CN is known to have cracked shooters. CSGO, PUBG, etc. There are levels to it.

wait wait WAIT WAIT

NAH TH DONT WANT IT. THEY JUST DONT WANT TO WIN.

The amount of eco they lose, the amount of man advantage they lose, questionable unitls, they just don't want it at this point.
PLS PROVE ME WRONG. I'LL DO CORNDOG GIVEAWAY

2 EDG lads running in with knife was kinda hilarious

They had some crackin corndogs after haven FOR SURE. GIVE US MAP 5 PLS

im afraid i cant help you with that

have a corn dog and chill

free speech system failed miserably in vlr.

woot doesn't want to play duelist and miniboo's raze is pretty good too so there is not much reason for them to change it up

2023 KC flashbacks
