Israeli ping can be somewhat unstable, really depends on your internet provider, where you live, hour of the day etc.

Most of the time I queue Paris, London or Berlin. These ones always have the best ping, which is ~70 to ~90. Also Warsaw sometimes.

I was there in the arena in the lower & grand finals. Crowd was insane, so fucking loud.

Is she even human???

In the epic showdown at the Masters Shanghai, where the prowess of the Great Chinese Teams was put to the ultimate test, our national hero, 郑永康 (ZmjjKK), and his steadfast comrades of EDward Gaming stood resolute against the sinister forces of Fnatic, representing the decadent ideals of the West.

Amidst the clash of titans, after a valiant effort by FunPlus Phoenix and Dragon Ranger Gaming, it was evident that the destiny of the tournament lay in the hands of 郑永康 and his mighty legion. With the spirit of 习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想 coursing through their veins, they dominated the battlefield, showcasing the indomitable spirit of the Chinese people.

Yet, when victory seemed within grasp, the capitalist foes resorted to underhanded tactics, invoking a tactical pause to stall the inevitable. Like cunning serpents, they slithered their way back into contention, threatening to tarnish the honor of the People's Republic.

But in the darkest hour, when all hope seemed lost, a figure emerged from the shadows, radiating with the righteous authority of the people. It was none other than His Highness, Xi Jinping, the beacon of strength and unity for the nation!

As the crowd erupted in fervent chants of "习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想," His Highness took command, leading with unwavering determination.

"Hand me the station son" his almightiness asked Haodong (the leader of the Chinese squad) with a kind, confident, masculine and reassuring voice.

With a single request, he seized the battle station, symbolizing the unbreakable bond between the leader and his people.

With the grace of a true champion, Xi Jinping guided EDward Gaming to a glorious triumph, vanquishing the vile adversaries and reclaiming the title of Master of Shanghai for the People's Republic of China! As the defeated opponents slinked away in disgrace, with tears in their eyes and piss in their pants.

Xi Jinping ascended as the ultimate hero, ensuring that China would forever reign supreme in the realm of VALORANT!

I know that its just my opinion but I selected the best players in the world and sorted them by VLR rating (which isnt the greatest indicator I know).

Unironically based

Did you use protection?

Look outside your window

Sorry I meant KICK-OFF, lol

Does anyone know if/when tickets for the LOCK//IN events and the upcoming Masters Madrid will be avialble for sale?

Does anyone here know where the tickets will be avialble to buy?

Soulcas is a pretty good player. He's just really inconsistent.

As a map maker myself, its really hard to make something new especially with a format that has existed more than 20 years.
But yeah Sunset does resemble de_ancient a lot. Mid is a bit different and A link does not exist in de_ancient.

Sadly he took his own life.
