not even a drama, munchkin just got annoyed at a bme player in ranked.

because SOOP (for international audience) is pretty much a completely different platform to SOOPkr and SOOP kr didnt buy the exclusive rights to vct.

SPG were talking about the production of ascension and loud noises during the GF, nothing to do with BME. Munchkin is just complaining about an issue on twitter. last time i checked, aint no one is sensitive towards bme.

that apac is not even close to "best possible team"

i got called a retard and racist for telling people to be a bit nicer today. the same guy posts this a few minutes later. outrageous.

did you find that out after looking at yourself in the mirror?

plus i didnt saw you are being fucking mean, i didnt say he was being toxic. i said this before and i will say it again, READ. I dont give two shit about bme, i dont give a shit about your opinions on any fucking team.

Just praise or hype whoever tf you want.

and i even gave two fucking examples on how to do em.

holy shitty yap. RACIST CARD????? you're funny if you think i pulled racist card. Assumptions about personality.
BME = Indonesian org. YOU GOT INDONESIAN FLAG + BME, so its obv that you are a fan of BME. Which can lead to bias takes about bme since bme was mentioned in the thread. THINK MAN THINK.

HOW am i in the fucking wrong if i just want people praising something without bringing the other down or even mentioning to prove my point???

Im talking to a fcking wall here, pulling out the racism card all of a sudden and calling me a retard cos im just sick of people not knowing how to praise and accept other's opinions? Lord save me from this shitty ass low iq pricks

saying "its not that hard to praise a team without dragging in another team to compare isn't that hard" but yall just proving my point. "break down in tears", bitch please, yall love to say "snowflakes" but when it comes to real fucking dispute yall cover yourselves up with excuses.
Both of you saying "crybaby culture", "snowflakes" when its about being fucking nice. Indo flag + boom flair, clearly you are biased and would want to defend bme, which i genuinely don't care. I never said he is toxic and i even praised bme. jesus christ relax.

did korea have a qualifier? Since CNE didn't make it to the main stage of challengers stage 3 but ended up in predator league.

ok gamergirl, enjoy your movie

call spg neon abusers when they were bonking everyone in vcl kr without neon is not really being "factual"
i didn't say you were hating, in fact i didnt even single you out. its already evening for you, get some dinner and sleep mate. im not the one typing out multiple sentences because someone does not agree with me.

couldn't care less, i like a bit of banter and shit but you just looked DESPERATE

argue all you want but most of your replies are just so emotional mate, chill/

Just praise or hype whoever tf you want without spreading negativity regarding other team, its not that hard.

"BME went toe to toe with NS and with adding new coaches and a player, they look really good. I don't think they deserve people placing them dead last."
"NS had a really good 2024, foreign teams like FNC and TH, coaches of DRX/GENG praised them so much. I think they can get top 6 in Pacific"

Its not that hard now is it?

edit: I did not know telling people that being a tad bit nicer is not that hard can trigger many of yous. bit funny but also a bit mind boggling.

you can respect boom without making a whole ass thread about how you don't like people rating NS.
At the end of the day, people got their own opinions and tbh no one knows what will happen in kick off.
People are just hyping them up from what other staff member and players talk about NS.

Mako 2022-2023

*you really are pushing primmie aura narrative but its honestly repulsing because you are trying to force it down everyone's throat LOL

taking a break from vct

went to VS, wrist bad and only pracs 2 maps of bind (stage 3 and masters berlin) and icebox (Champs 2021), leaves VS and joins IGZ on loan. Joins Dplus Kia, knocked out of ascension. Heals his wrist for a short amount of time before signing for GENG. Now is like the only time he can actually heal his wrist so its nice that he is a free agent now.
I would say his fragging was at the best in 2021 before the injury but overall hes a better player now

athan still really young, stepped down and went back to DRX prospects.
rossy was arguably c9's best player during the off-season and got canned for moose.

Well i'll be happy if DRX makes it to masters this year after the rebuilding but yes, flashback is very good at valorant fasho.

because i've been living in Australia all my life. rich coming from international waters but tbh that flag is pretty.

ok lsd abuser, i'll double check what i read next time

bruh i misread lmao

wdym obesseion, i literally said i cant find the source AND im korean.

but you'll see people somehow relating this to kr scene in general and how pressurised and toxic it is. internet community be like:

who has decided to step down from the starting roster and compete with DRX Prospects in 2025.

it literally says that he is competing with DRX prospects, not a release. As for the reasons, no one knows for sure.

im korean and also watched heaps of PUBG pc and NEVER saw any news like that. I searched it up after seeing your comment but i still can't find the source of wtv you are saying.

and THAT is another fcking win for michael. W.

KR take esports seriously but its not "too much". if you don't know about the scene well, just dont make wild assumptions about it, it aint that hard.

everything is agreed between the coaching staff and players, and the official statement comes out. Previous players and pressure? Stax wanted a new challenge, rb and zest had talks with the coaches too. foxy literally calls termi "bro" in korean. athan was clearly not good enough and they made the decision to bring back beyn and allow athan to play for prospects. nothing "crazy pressure" about this one tbh

athan is young + he gets to compete under DRX prospects. Not a bad thing for him at all.

Well, how would you get a range if they are kept more secret than the Americas team? You already have the answer to your question. There aren't any leaks or stuff like that in APAC, let alone KR/JP.

teams dont disclose their player's salary, the players don't like disclosing their salary because why would they?
Established orgs would pay a decent amount but i bet its usually paid in consideration of their achievements, team's prospect in winning challengers, etc.

I never really lost any heart towards DRX no matter what. I guess you'll see it for yourself if you are still interested in val esports or SEN when the season starts because i feel like its a 'case by case' kinda scenario. For some, it comes back when season starts and for others it just does not come back.

Good individual performances often leads to good team performances. t3xture was great in all of GENG's finals and was even the only one shooting in Champs. You can't just take away t3xture's achievement just because GENG's team performance was good. In your words, meiy should be in top 5 since he was individually great in a shit team. kk was good, but t3xture being good the entire season cannot be overlooked. He was vital in that 'team performance' which is why i added GENG and since the op mentioned domestic performances of EDG.

typing like t3xture did not slap everyone in pacific when GENG won Kickoff and stage 2 while coming in 2nd in stage 1. if 5 Grand finals in a row (winning 1 masters and 2 regionals) while being the best player in GENG can't get you a 1st place, surely crashing out in both masters and only doing well in champs should not warrant a solid 1st.

either way, i feel like meteor's consistency in fragging throughout the year should be enough reason for him to be top 3

its 11 degrees celsius in Melb rn, it should be summer man. Well it is 1:30am but still.

0 games played in tier 1 and people believing he could have been better than mako is baffling. Like we didnt even see him playing a single minute in full tier 1 season man.

oof that is one big ass statement to make. I don't really like the Ifs in valorant but karon coming into tier 1 from ranked and dropping that masterclass and mako being top class from 2021 masters berlin is kinda hard to be topped. So idk how to answer your question tbh.

mako 1.0 was already dropping GOAT plays, cant wait for mako 2.0

termi, glow, argency masterclass mate. Their talent in creating set plays and growing young players is INSANE.

never doubted him

i didnt say he has no influence. To you, every reply opposing your idea is "you are downplaying tenz", "you dont appreciate him". You are describing him like a second coming of jesus.

wtv you say man, nothing will EVER change you anyway. cheers.

Their A site execution is FILTHY

there were other instances where riot took in opinions from VCT teams. Riens saying riot won't listen to him? That was a tweet from October. Riot could have had plans to nerf neon a few weeks before the kick off starts, and if im not mistaken sliggy mentioned that riot would probably want to nerf neon after a few weeks (this was in october/november) so that it can be played during the off seasons and stage 3, while the kick off can start off with a more balanced agents. You are avoiding my arguments and only blindly throwing your own opinions so theres really no point. Almost every pro talked about neon, the community talked about neon, hence riot nerfed it.

when did i say Tenz cant complain? I was talking about how you are trying to justify your answer by saying Tenz = faker. Also, the things that tenz complains about happen to be the same things other pros and ranked players complain as well. TenZ also complains about other things that many dont really agree on.

RIOT listens to pro players and teams seriously, not only tenz. You are out here literally worshipping him. Get off his dick

talon beat DRX when DRX had flashback on sova while the entire roster was only about 2 weeks old. let that sink in. Talon losing against MiTH and GENG in that fashion but still ranks above DRX is pure delusion.

are you seriously trying to one-up or at least trying to equal Tenz's achievement and status as a pro player to faker...?
