Frags

–

even Less said in an interview the tier two team in NA is really strong and caught them off guard when they first started practicing.. they're not being overhyped I think this is just the very first lan tournament for a lot of these players.. remember this game got popular during a global pandemic and there have been very few LANs, especially for American players

Frags

Don't use the "First LAN" argument here lol. Every person from NA had The Guard 2-0ing The Union "easy". So much confidence on M80 and The Guard 2-0ing every single team but when they lose they are suddenly inexperienced?

unfortunately the union plays in brazil, imagine having to play against worse teams than 00nation lmao, while the guard and m80 play against franchise teams, there's nothing to do.
brazil is supporting the union. #gotheunion

i dont really follow brazilian tier 1, let alone tier 2 bcs i think they trash. seeing the union play first time, omg bunch of braindead with high ass ego. keep dry peeking and lose 1v1 that cost the team. The guard will win the whole thing.
