we aren't talking abt 2021..... otherwise we'd of had to bring up the regional masters
BulkyLettuce [#8]TenZ & Chronicle stand as the only two players in VCT history with 2 Masters titles. 15 DIFFERENT players have 1 champions. How the hell is 1 champions = 2 masters??
FNC has left the chat

huh? FNC don't have 2 masters. Only SEN has 2 masters in VCT history and TenZ was part of both of them

according to riot, Lock\in was "a masters level tournament" and "a replacement for a masters event"
i don't agree with it, but its what riot says

didn't have the same format though. masters has double elim and groups, lock//in was single elimination which (arguably) was harder, but could be argued that it was easier since any good teams wouldn't have a chance after a single loss

A lock in isn't a masters, its a lock in, or else it would be called a masters. Lock in was a one time event for franchising where there were zero qualifiers unlike a masters or champs. If you said FNC has 2 VCT trophies that would make more sense.

Are you talking about achievements? Chronicle has the most achievements in VCT history

because its the biggest tournament of the year???
do you celebrate cs minor winners or league msi winners?
besides a lot of teams treat everything else as prep for champs

You probably think EG was the best team in the world last year, not FNC. Am I correct?

doesn't matter, sacy is a champions + masters winner.
At the end every player want to win the CHAMPIONS. ask chronicle if he wants to win 3 masters or 1 champs

Nah its pretty well known chronicle is the most achieved player in VCT history

riot literally said that it was a "a masters level tournament" and "a replacement for a masters event"

tbh prx was the best team last year
Er3ngenes1s [#25]riot literally said that it was a "a masters level tournament" and "a replacement for a masters event"
Masters level ≠ masters event, they are clearly saying the prestige and coverage would be masters equivalent, lock in had no similarity to masters in branding either
Psion [#9]we aren't talking abt 2021..... otherwise we'd of had to bring up the regional masters
i forgot about regional masters holy shit

Lock in winners do not get absolutely any advantage for next tournament. Tourney is not seeded, there’s no double elim, this is literally mosts teams first official GAME together, you didn't even need to qualify to play in the event. This literally goes against everything a masters is. Lock in was a one time event to introduce franchising.

All yapperinos, if Riot says it then thats it. No debate.

Masters level ≠ masters event. They are called different things for a reason riot never said it was a masters event. It was a one time thing to introduce franchising.
Javvi [#27]Masters level ≠ masters event, they are clearly saying the prestige and coverage would be masters equivalent, lock in had no similarity to masters in branding either
Who tf cares about branding? lol. competition is the only thing that matters and lock in had the same amount of competition as any masters or champs has it

they literally did in their vct 23 teaser vid. also, u think anyone cares about the name of an event? lol. what everyone cares about is the competition and the it is the same in every tournament

Keep deluding yourself. A masters is a masters. A lock in is a lock in.

ur the one deluding here lil bro. guy thinks he is different from riot 💀

Just because something replaces something else doesn't mean its the same. You are lost

child still thinks he is different from riot 💀
Psion [#14]if you don't win champions your year was a failure, even FNC winning 2 tournaments was a failure bc they didn't win champs. its the ultimate goal.
a failure according to who?
Marved-NA-Savior [#11]1st Masters: Warm up, new teams, new rosters, new/change meta, practice tournament, usually some rookies do well
2nd Masters: Some rookies/teams exposed. Deserve respect, great team International winners
Champions: Champions of the YEAR, best players of the year included
This is quite accurate.
Psion [#14]if you don't win champions your year was a failure, even FNC winning 2 tournaments was a failure bc they didn't win champs. its the ultimate goal.
They won 2/3 international events and were placed top4 in champs as well and even after that its a failure???
Botroretro [#44]realistically there’s no difference between a champs and masters event
There is a big difference. The money that EG get from champs was two times bigger than Fnatic get from Lock in and master Tokyo combined.
Difficulty wise there is zero difference. Still against the best teams in the world, still all of them trying their absolute hardest. You could even argue masters is harder since a team can be amazing at the start of the year and rack up lots of points but then fall off hard at the end of the year when champs rolls around with all the different meta shifts. These teams will qualify but will be worse than the teams that had a slow start but peaked later in the year who just missed the points needed. Masters you are against the best teams in the world at that point in time and there is zero fall off.
Psion [#16]according to riot, Lock\in was "a masters level tournament" and "a replacement for a masters event"
i don't agree with it, but its what riot says
first you have to fight in your own region to qualify for masters while in lock in it wasn't this case riot just gave every team a slot therefore it doesn't count as masters so Masters > Lock in.
Er3ngenes1s [#33]Who tf cares about branding? lol. competition is the only thing that matters and lock in had the same amount of competition as any masters or champs has it
Respectfully, it really didnt. First off, it was a single-elim. Look at the majority of masters and champs events, most of them including the previous two masters and champions had winners from the lower bracket. Get a lucky first few matchups and you’re on your way to the final. Second off, it was the first event of the year, these rosters are not gonna be close to the quality of teams after a full split / year

even madrid was the first event of the year too, does that mean it is also not counted as one? 😂 there are so many flaws jus like this one in ur statement. retrospect ur own thought process buddy 😂
lxd1o_o [#22]doesn't matter, sacy is a champions + masters winner.

Chronicle carried his team to win and sacy was dead weight that got carried in madrid

First event of the year was kickoff? The every masters event barring 2023 would then also be fake. What are you going at
Mobass [#7]What's with people and tryna downplay peoples W's
IDK but the game is diff now so people like to say that about acend but im mostly tired of it for SEN because people are mad their fav team didnt make it

Kick off was a qualifier for the masters event which is the first event of 2023. MY GOD U R SO DUMBO . and i am not even gonna read ur second argument, it is just plain dumb. LMFAO ur just contradicting urself now moron
