Hell no

True

Yea not same but similar. Good to know they atleast read stuff here.

I wanted to see Prime FNC vs Prime NRG, hopefully in Champions =(

Shanghai Masters format's idea was taken from this VLR thread https://www.vlr.gg/337633/vct-admins-and-organizers-come

Format introduced on twitter: https://twitter.com/valorantesports/status/1788584724321165768?s=46&t=TelKdTNkFkBSxTmcJ4ujsw

We should voice things out more here VLR Nation. Seems like RiotValorant considers what the Valorant Community wants, which is good for us.

Proof that Leo Faria reads VLR.. He took this idea from this thread https://www.vlr.gg/337633/vct-admins-and-organizers-come

Shanghai Masters will be fun, great idea!

Crazy how Leo Faria read this and is now allowing Top Seeders in Shanghai Masters to choose and pick their opponents they want to play against.

We back baby

Lets see how Cryo does on other Raze maps, and how well or poorly 100T will play against LEV.

Leo is Zlatan

Guess who Cryo learned from?

NRG LESS???

Hear me out... NRG Less

He can go to FUR or MIBR, or back to Tier 2 BR

BIG BOOSTIO

Demon1 had it in EG, now Cryocells has it for 100T!
BOOSTIO W

He should drop -18 pounds

NRG SEN or EG should've made it over C9, everyone agree?

Lets go Runi and Oxy! Don't fuck up Vanity!

W. keep us updated mate.

Keznit is not racist in my honest opinion. He's actually a great dude.

Just put him on Chamber and let him cook, easy game.

before u get off vlr, take this advice and ask her. it doesnt hurt to ask. and if shes not ready now, ask again later. show her ur still interested. the only time you back off is if you know she lost interest. keep it while u still have it though, so there's no regrets. also dont be a little bitch! you got this.

skip to 43:30 its just 15min talk for NRG, some good takes. I also agree with the statistics and patterns of how Top teams always usually have players grinding Ranked, it made sense for Zekken Rank 1 popping off at Masters, and other players as well etc.

Elevated explanation of NRG scrims was very W.

They still have potential to be a top team Internationally, but I dont think they will. Maybe top3 in Americas. It depends on the meta and their vibes through the season.

Finally we'll see some Iso and Clove action. Can't wait.

quite accurate, thank you.

SEN doesn't have enough discipline and lost the hype (SEN bundle blah blah). Their belly got full after winning a trophy, so they got lazy and unmotivated. Plain and simple. Their true form and characters will reveal in Split 2.

Amaze me.

Aspas
D4v41
Demon1 2023 had most aura
Leo Alfajer
nAts
Forsaken Jinggg
Johnqt
Oxy aura growing but can still be fraud
Zellsis has vibes, no aura
cNed and other FUT
TH and KC has some aura
GenG EDG and FPX got some aura
Less has immense aura

I agree with this. Ascension should be separate from Main VCT anyways.

I think this formats fine it should just be spread out over a longer time period.
2 splits 2 masters 1 champs with lcq and kickoffs etc are fine.

@ValorantEsports @RiotGames
Will Leo Faria ever read this?

Way too long.
Yes they wanted Masters to seem weaker than Champions, we get that.
But Champions ending in August is way too soon for the entire year, and Riot is rushing the Splits and Masters. Give the players some break. Extend the yearly competition instead of giving a crazy long offseason as well.
Are the Valorant players and coaches too soft? Do they not want to make this a professional and competitive career? There were some cry babies in the scene I'm aware of but the format can be extended and more balanced throughout yearly. Most players are competitive and they want to compete and showcase, but breaks are important as well. But this crazy ass long offseason bullshit after ending Champions in August makes no sense.

TLDR: Spread the season splits and Masters in a more balanced way so there's times for breaks for the players and let Champions be more towards the end of the year.

Demon1 and NRG will be fine for Split 2.

He's nowhere near the best yet. He'll get there eventually if he doesn't choke with his team. We'll see at Champions if they qualify.

Players with good game sense and aim are NOT going to be affected. Less and Johnqt will be fine, be worried for other Viper players who are quite MID.

Think EG should've made it over G2 100%

Yeah he likes to talk about himself a lot... bro we dont care respectfully.

Aspas and technically Sacy as well as an initiator in terms of trophies so far

1) EG
2) LOUD
3) C9
4) 100T
5) G2

If none of you have ever experienced your friends suiciding, you have no idea how fucked up these kinds of "memes" are. Just keep that in mind, ignorance is a bliss sometimes.

Who would've placed higher among EG, 100T, C9, G2, LOUD if they faced off each other again?

1)
2)
3)
4)
5)

And no one blames EG for beating SEN and NRG

Runi made a huge difference

Wait until after Champions end in August. You'll say this format and set up dates sucked.

Quite accurate except replace Team Liquid with Gambit + Acend

That would be great.

They can just play simple strats and dominate each rounds, don't really know why they want to complicate things and mess up their timings. Makes no sense when they can win some rounds easily, lol.
