That's sad to hear but not unexpected. He's a good player, better than people give him credit for, but I think he's always underperformed on LAN or in high pressure scenarios. I think it's a mental issue.

Laz, Dep, Marved, Yay, Pancada, Derrek
Lowkey KC look better than LOUD and PRX rn, but that could easily change at madrid
In fencing? I got my ass whooped by olympians and 15 year olds all day haha. Haven't ever been in a street fight or anything
I'm sorry bro I love PRX but rn Tenz is playing better than mindfreak
Did sport fencing for a while, tough but not particularly strong
He would be second initiator, plays a lot of fade, sova, some breach. Moose is traditionally a senti but ig he could go to smokes and runi could take senti as well.
He doesn't have movable eyelids, yk like a reptile
Yeah it was a whole scandal I think esp in Japan, that's why he doesn't play anymore
he got divorced for cheating 💀💀
He had a few games last year where he no joke played like the best player in the world. Since then he's shown flashes of that player, but nothing consistent. I think the soulcas comparison is pretty apt, and I'm guessing his inconsistancy has to be a mental issue.
2021 champions with the plat chat costream, the guard jokes, the cakes, the greenscreen clips.
That was my fav era of valorant.
Day 3 of asking for guard flair
You’re not watching the games lol you’re just reading stats off the page. Forsaken is definitely worthy of being here
Blud forgot f0rsaken, zmjkk, and cauanzin
Yeah loud is still favored for sure, they’re a better team imo, but I’m saying an upset isn’t unreasonable
Less definitely is top top tier, cauan is right behind. For geng, if meteor and munchkin are on one, then they have 2 guys at Less tier (texture and karon), and 2 guys at cauan level. There is a very real aim diff here.
Lowkey, and this might be dumb, I think GenG might just aim diff loud like they did DRX. Current loud can’t recover very well when the game plan goes belly up, and I think GenG could take massive advantage of that
There's no way you're better than diamond lmfaoooo, also you hit flicks like that second regularly?
I agree tbh, I think the best team in Americas will be one of those who didn't make madrid and who grinds hard asf
Biased towards duelists heavy
Like cmon where's your creativity
Yes he is bro, did you learn nothing from last year?
we know where this one is going
(KC 3-1 TH, GenG 3-1 PRX, EDG 3-1 FPX)
Bro they played with pancada last year. He's a goat player, but it just didn't work out. Get pancada on Loud or Furia or something STAT
The regular season in EMEA, Americas, and APAC are all dominated by non madrid teams, leading to peple forever calling the tournament a micky mouse tourney, despite being as prestigious as any.
Like in EMEA, where TH and KC played the first game of kickoff and last in Grand Finals, so will SEN and Loud play first in Americas and rematch in the grand finals
Nerves are hard to deal with, but with experience they’ll lessen. I’m not worried long term
ENGH, mCe, Chet, Potter, Mini are the coaches I believe in the most
You’re insane she’s a top 3 coach worldwide with ENGH and Chet
Nah bc if they beat loud here, it’ll be because of insane anti strating, which won’t work against teams like GenG or TH, who will just run over them. It’ll be an individuals diff. I respect a lot of the EG players, esp Supamen, and Jawg is a genuine superstar, but that’s not enough against the other Madrid teams.
I’d say EG could beat FPX or an off form EDG/GenG, but that’s probably it imo.
Frankly I’d be shocked if they played as badly as they did against Furia and C9. They’ve had a lot of time to prep, and the individual ability of all of these players cannot be overstated.
I’d say they’re likely to if they win here. This is for two reasons: 1. Loud has gotten where they are partly by innovating new comps that haven’t been figured out yet (gave them an advantage over sentinels on ascent). 2. If NRG beats SEN, they surely show much better form and strategic depth than we’ve seen previously as SEN are no pushover.
Combining those two, we see that once Loud’s comps are shown deep in Madrid, they will be easier to beat than in this kickoff (not easy tho, they’re still an insane team). Plus NRG must be living up to their players’ talent, and an NRG at full potential is a tournament winning roster. Thus I favor NRG to win Madrid. KC, Heretics, an in form GenG (they just win every aim duel and clutch), are all extremely strong teams though.
What are you talking about 💀
