nah geng lose to prx then beat them in gf

Chinese crowd leaves the stadium and they bow to an empty arena

holy banger map

it was so close mannnnn

lol first drx vs fpx back when they were in eu, and now this series. seems like fpx are cursed to lose the bangers

when the playoffs grand final rolls around in a couple months, it’s gunna be between these 2 teams

These new jp players are cracked wtf

So much potential, esp Aace and maybe yatsuka. Lowk Caedye is lookin like another TENNN — high highs but low lows, still a bit too inconsistent and probs the least disciplined of the bunch (he still got time tho).

ur rt that’s mb

love the China copium but FPX>>>>>>

they ain’t ready for BerLIN

lowk I’m thinkin prx vs gen but prx choke again

fair

• EDG don’t win a single map
• All-Pacific grand finals
• FPX finish 5th-6th
• Both EU teams get grouped

GEN 3-1 PRX

t1 ain’t going to Shanghai

bruh invy and Jeremy the only ones they should keep

sign kellyS, marky and maybe xavi8k from PH challengers
give new faces a chance

-aco -SereNa +YamzzI +miNt

zeta would actually b unstoppable

wp kru

1. SEN 2. GEN 3. PRX 4/5. LOUD, NRG 6. FNC 7. KC 8. TH 9. T1 10/11. DRX, FUT

thoughts? (couldn’t decide between fut and drx)

fennel looks way better than dfm, maybe even zeta rn

Enzo didn’t do great but tbh I think mistic is the bigger problem

this coming out while t1 v. bld being delayed by 5 hrs is wild

ahhhhh, that makes a lot more sense

if fennel doesn’t win ascension, syouta needs to be picked up by zeta or dfm, could make a case for clz and gon as well. All 3 have been consistently the best jp players in challengers since last year, esp syuota.

def the best possible scenario

edit:just watched their announcement video; judging by how they were introduced that’s probs the starting 5

W pickup

reazy and Elite were doing rly gud in challengers last year

DM lowk kinda impressed despite the loss, maybe GE could pick him up eventually

also Lakia hasn’t preformed since 2021, and after 2 years he’s still not back in form. geng needs to sign someone new and leave Lakia in tier 2

yea this was what I was expecting, wtf are t1 cooking bringing in carpe and iZu instead of xeta and k1Ng

fpx 2-1 te prayge

that was the idea yea

Using only Chinese players and excluding EDG:

Duel: whzy [BLG]
Init: AAAAY [FPX]
Senti: FengF [TE]
Contr: Spring [NiP]
Flex: 8luA [ME]

fk/fd on pretty much any duelist in reg season and better on op

:(((

Keiko and Enzo w pickups, but not so sure about Mistic.

If he chokes in tier 1 again, man should just stick to tier 2

dude what happened to oxy, he’s so fking consistent now

anyone kno when the vlr rating system will b added to cn matches?

he’s good but they got 2 tier 5 players on the team dragging him down

Even if they make it TYLOO have got to be the weakest team in groups. They have some incredible players on paper but too many of them like to play more passively which makes their firepower suffer. In my eyes if they want to become a contender, a good first step would be to commit to either ICEKING or Luok1ng and then bring in a more consistent aimer.

NiP take this 2-0

sry minimize I love you but Spring’s the goat

completely forgot abt Biank, man has gotten so gud recently

AAK sometimes chokes on duelist but rly gud on sentinel (esp his chamber cuz of he ops a lot), but tbh don’t believe in hfmi, he either drops 30 or does triple negative with no in between.

totally, he was kinda mid on duelist before but he seems like he got potential to become a top initiator in the region

agree with the list for the most part, but don’t think EG are staying together.

there was a stream clip like a week or two back from FNS saying an org had signed the “fnatic of NA”, and with the lack of news from NRG, I’d say it’s likely that it’s them and they’re just waiting to confirm Ethan and Demon1. So I’d put them on top.

besides the import tbh, I only see an argument for YiHao. he’s absolutely cracked.

Mart1n has insane aim but he’s one of the most inconsistent players I’ve seen. spitfires is a fade one trick, and Viva is a mid duel is decent but pretty mid considering how many good duelists there are in the region (whzy, life, spring, Ninebody, AAK, etc…)

yea no imports. Geng or t1 should’ve picked up stew he was absolutely destroying t2 kr challengers and now he’s carrying RA.

Besides players from EDG, what 5 players would be a roster that could contest for the title of best Chinese roster?

My thoughts would be:
Duel: whzy (BLG)
Init: AAAAY (FPX)
Senti: Lysoar (FPX)
Contr: Spring (NiP)
Flex: FengF (TRACE)

Honorable mentions but kinda inconsistent:
Senti: yosemite (BLG)
Flex: Knight (BLG)
Senti/Flex: 8luA (ME)
Contr: YiHao (RA)

my goat spring drops 50

mid

just get munchkin, break exy out of dk contract jail, and some cracked t2 player like LuZ

fair enough

Been following players such as whzy spring and ColdFish for a while now, whzy finally got a good team but just kinda sucks to see that the other 2 still haven’t really had a good chance.

not that I kno of unfortunately

u can see some stats from the ongoing tourney on vlr tho (all 3 teams are out in the qualifiers)
and stew posts some stats on his twitter

wtf is going on with these Chinese orgs announcing shit rosters. It’s like they have some collective agreement that they’re only allowed to sign one good player

NIP signed Spring and trash (just look at their recent game against RNG)
TOP esports signed ColdFish and trash (tbf they lost to RA who have a couple decent players and stew, insane Korean player)
and now Invictus just managed to sign a roster of only trash players

please give my bro Spring a team man

allat

sadge, would’ve wanted him and Nivera to stay on the team and have Enzo igl
