wow idk man, AvovA is carrying and m1xwell is baiting on ascent

Sorry buddy, same challengers to compete so if Gambit W or Acend W, EMEA wins.

I think there is no problem with the current roster, they need to invest in staff / coaching.
Also, Shahzam seems like he thinks there is no coach can teach them shit, so this is a big problem.

In terms of the game, they need to put some reliable person with Raze on Split. Sinatraa can do it but we all know that Tenz cant play it properly.

I think is a regular paycheck (120K / year ) for an EU player but is a very short paycheck for a NA player tbh
I guess is because the game is almost new and is the first year of VCT, when leagues and franchised came the salaries will get a real boost.

They are following the same strategy Riot do in LoL, the best and more important tournament of the year >>> all
The prize of get a spot in the tournament is the best prize of the year, winning the tournament means your are the best team of the year.

It sucks for teams like Sentinels or Envy who put great performances in Masters 2 and Masters 3, but i think is the best for reassess the great tournament

Fun fact is that Sentinels made more money in this tournament than they did in Reykjavík

Thats the last boost for orgs in NA / EU / KR / BR / LATAM and other regions to invest in valorant next 2022 (Even if no regular league or franchised like League of Legends LEC / LCS / LCK)

To put numbers in context, there is still a week of this bundle and the prizes for each participant will be:

1st $818,750
2nd $618,750
3-4th $558,750
5th-8th $508,750
9th-16th $488,750

The last CSGO Major prize pool was:

1st $1,000,000
2nd $300,000
3rd-4th $140,000
5th-8th $70,000
9th-16th $17,500

• IDK if valve has an increment like the champions bundle to add to the participants of the major

I didnt expect that diff between Acend and Envy

I think that all organizations have internal disagreements and problems that we will never know.
The coach / staff should change, they are not a team like Gambit, they are great players playing together without the same vision of the game

Both mixwell and nukkye can play as jett / dualist role.
The problem is pyth was benched and mixwell stays as a role he doesnt know how to play (at a highest level)
With pAura, you cover the sentinels role properly (can be igl too), mixwell back to main dualist or passive entry

They should remove keloqz and add pAura.

pAura replacing m1xwell in G2 and the old great Heretics are back

+ShadoW

too strong Acend on Bind, lets see if SMB can overcome in the Ascent and Icebox

G2 propably are looking a replace for keloqz right now. This man is a talent but he makes a lot of mistakes

That last attack of Acend on Haven was sick, nice sync

Bring back poiz instead of Xeppa

These two teams are the strongest in the masters. Shahzam insane

Dont know, seems logic

I really think LATAM should have a spot in Iceland, and KRU has it well deserved, but top teams in TR and CIS should have the opportunity in LAN between each regions if they are different regions than EU.

Split EMEA in 1 TR, 1 CIS and 2 EU or at least put 3 spots on EMEA playoffs

Maybe is choking in lan or they had a bad day but they are far behind in terms of macro.
KRU won only 5 rounds through 2 maps and only 1 with full buys on both teams.

Lets see how far KRU goes in lower bracket but i really think TR and CIS need at least a spot for each one of them

I think thats the current meta and the way to go. Cant wait to see in Masters 2 on LAN to confirm or refuse it between each regions.

Obviously depends on the map, but you can play with sage in icebox and breach on split for example. What im trying to say is that the 1 dualist comp is really flexible and bring your team a lot of utility rather than a 2 dualist comp which forces you to play really aggro.

I think TSM might need to change their vision in the current meta. 100T was done a great job dropping a talent like dicey because can put ethan on smokes and nitr0 choose a utility role as Breach(Currently OP imo) or Sage. They now playing like FPX in EU that i think is the correct way. dicey say too in his stream, there are a lot of maps where you dont need a OP.

Despite, TSM is always trying a 2 dualist comp with less utility like breach or Sage.

I think they have a great roster but the fail to go Master comes because they cant read the meta properly.
