Obviously that's making a big impact on players from teams like M3C, Fnatic, FPX, etc. No one's arguing with that, and I'd say the vast majority of people understand how horrifying and awful it is. That being said, G2 (2nd seeded EMEA team even accounting for FPX) as a team had nothing different from playoffs, and they had no reason to underperform. Despite that they got 2-0'd by two "minor" region teams. That pretty conclusively shows that EMEA isn't head and shoulders above the other regions, and I'd say that's a good thing because it allows more diversity with teams and more exciting play.

I'm personally very excited to see M3C and FPX return in the next masters, but I also appreciate that they'll have close competition.

Looks like Optic vs Loud will be the big match. I'd favor loud the first time around tbh, but then Optic the second.

Zeta because they don't have onur and are better than Kru ever was

I can't see them beating Loud or Optic tbh since they lost against G2 so convincingly. But I'm here to cheer for them now!!

posted about 2 years ago

I dont' think DRX has a chance anyway. Zeta looked better on attack in all their other Split games and DRX looked weaker on attack than defense against Optic.

That is an unbelievable half AND Zeta looked so much better on attack than defense against Liquid sooooo

Definitely nonzero. G2 is good but Loud demolished them. Do I think PRX are as good as Loud? No not at all. But I think they can definitely win if G2 get's bamboozled by SEA aggression.

7-1!!!!

Genuinely nothing against DRX, they've played incredibly, but holy shit do I want Zeta to win. Such a good underdog story!

I do love all of those players tho, a shame 6 man teams don't work in Valorant.

If you replace Crashies with Sacy or Chronicle, yes.

Who IGLs?

posted about 2 years ago

For really consistent mechanical ability tho, FNS isn't it. Idk who else would work well though cause we already have a controller with Mako.

posted about 2 years ago

Mako doesn't igl I don't think. Pretty sure Zest does.

posted about 2 years ago

I feel like it would be limiting for what you could run in general though, especially if the meta changes to double controller or something.

posted about 2 years ago

Yay - Duelist (Jett/Chamber)
Xeppaa - Flex (Skye, Kayo, Raze if needed)
Trent - Initiatior (Sova, Breach)
Wippie - Sentinel (KJ, Sage, Viper if needed)
Zander - Controller and IGL (Omen, Brim, Viper, Astra)

I know it's like the dude from above's but I really think this is the best option unless maybe you take Vanity over Zander but that's trading away a lot of mechanical skill for a marginal increase in IGLing.

posted about 2 years ago

Put wippie instead of Dapr and I think this is it.

posted about 2 years ago

If asuna's on sage, you have no one to play Kayo on maps like Ascent and Icebox. Trent plays Sova and Breach only.

posted about 2 years ago

Ok but you get why it makes much more sense to choose one of them then get another player on sentinel (chamber is a psudo duelist not really a sentinel). A lot of the time KJ and Sage can be really useful. Plus if you have two inflexible players, then you can't really adapt to new metas like if double controller comes back.

posted about 2 years ago

Yes they both play chamber and jett

posted about 2 years ago

Yay on sage? That's cap dude.

posted about 2 years ago

Dude Yay + Wardell would make no sense. They both play a ton of chamber, and why would you want two inflexible duelists. Plus Wardell hasn't been nearly good enough apart from the very beginning of valorant to justify his place there when people like Leaf and Cryo exist in NA.

If she was lying, then why tf did Sinatraa not comply with the Riot investigation??

posted about 2 years ago

Who's the sentinel?? You'd usually want a KJ and Sage on some maps.

posted about 2 years ago

You want Wardell over Cryo...

posted about 2 years ago

Zeta are so much better than I thought they were. They've totally proved me wrong, and I want them to win this match. I think they can beat G2 if they face them a second time, but I don't think they beat Loud or Optic.

LMFAOOOO

Cryo + Yay is too conflicting. I'd put Zander or Vanity with Wippie instead of Marved + Cryo.

posted about 2 years ago

But then aren't the roles even worse?? You have cNed, Scream, Nivera, AND Jamppi on the same team. If Cned takes over full time Jett, who's still IGLing, who's playing flex, what's even going on.

NA could be C9 and V1 too. Those 4 teams are very close in skill although optic have seemed the best so far.
