⚡️⚡️⚡️NRG 2-1 EDG ⚫⚫⚫
no billibilli 💩💩💩 ahh fluke gonna be happening here.
uhhhh this is a rough opener but i have some faith nrg 2-1
not feeling it anymore idk why edg 2-0
famous last words
edit: oi guys, not saying I was rooting for EDG, I had NRG winning in my pickems [https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/f3eb2acc], I just know that sometimes jinxes happen)
nope i promise you haven't we have never played a "BLG" in fact i don't even know what those characters look like together
Yah you're probably right. Must have been a different team. Btw, how's FNS? is he okay?
FNS is going to France (you know how French people are) so he's probably not okay
yeah idk about this one folks ! but i believe EDG 2-1 barely scrapping it out
Idk about this one but i hope edg focus and win the group stage also edg have 20 practicing and preparing for paris sooooo i believe in my time im gonna say 2-1 for edg cuz they have the experience and chimistry between the players is good actually and i hope just they don't play just for kang kang and plzzz don't let kag kang play yoru he is bad ngl
EDG is washed bro, how they lose to blg 3-1. they are washed after champions 2024
I believe Sunset. Even if EDG fell off a bit, they were feeling like Von in that map.
EDG 2-0 NRG
Mada takes 40 first duels and wins 25 of them, going overall -10
NRG fans proceed to call for a new duelist ignoring the fact the rest of the team is baiting him 💔
EDG have had more time to prepare and now that Icebox is gone Lotus can be perma banned unless they cook something up for Lotus but EDG have always been good on Abyss so this depends on maps picks and bans and the comp pls no Yoru
Predictions:
NRG ban Haven, EDG ban Lotus
NRG pick Corrode, EDG pick Abyss
NRG ban Bind, EDG ban Ascent
Sunset remains
I think this map pool favors EDG. NRG's best maps are Lotus and Corrode (which EDG is 4-1 on). Their Haven is okay, Bind/Sunset is shaky, Ascent is relatively untested, and Abyss was not good the one time they played it this year.
EDG on the other hand have only two bad-ish maps, Lotus and Sunset, the latter of which NRG is quite bad at. Nonetheless I think they'd rather play Sunset than Bind given EDG have been decent on it (they even beat BLG). Their Abyss is undefeated on a small sample size this year but obviously last year they played extremely well on it and I'd expect them to be one of the better Abyss teams in champs. Ascent is okay and Corrode is really good.
If I were NRG I'd ban Haven given that EDG has showed dominance on it this year and theirs hasn't been the best. EDG 100% bans Lotus given it's one of NRG's strongest maps.
Then NRG is in a tough spot. I really think they have to pick Corrode, their only other good map, and try to play into EDG. Then EDG would probably pick Abyss.
NRG would ban Bind, and I think EDG would rather not play Ascent given how bad NRG have been on Sunset.
FINAL: Corrode, Abyss, Sunset.
Predicted wins: Corrode NRG 13-11, Abyss EDG 13-7, Sunset NRG 13-10. mada drops 60 in his international debut, diffing KK.
EDG should win if they keep 2 things in mind: motivation and awareness that Odin will be used.
NRG do not have the type advantage to make them super effective vs CN teams like SEN so I am guessing 2-0 for EDG
My goat Ethan will destroy everything and break up the fake championship team
If the real KK shows up it’ll be close. If Jieni is able to contribute, EDG wins. I don’t think he can or will. They need a better 5th. Hard to replace S1MON. NRG 2-1, but closer than the odds say.
Why old kk was much stronger? Is it because of sens change?or it's a burnout
I’d say it’s a mix of both. Sensitivity changes don’t really matter too much at the pro level since that’s more about preference. The bigger reason is probably burnout and frustration from all the roster instability — with Jieni and hfmi constantly switching, the s1mon drama, etc. That kind of inconsistency can really affect performance. But honestly, I don’t think EDG will have those issues going forward. Jieni is a solid duelist and should bring more stability to the team. I also forgot to mention Chichoo being a igl w nobody its just alot of changes recently edg just needs to get used to it
Bro edg 😢 I had so much expectations from them...that abyss choke is killing me from insi,I take their performance more seriously nd it affecting my mind...I thought they gonna come #3 or #2 in champs 😭💔
This is what happens when ego comes in esports, deserved loss for benching simon
NRG is imo one of best teams here, soo they should win, but china is kinda unknown, soo might be surprise
their shape is unknown and all we saw was how they play compared to other china teams, not other regions, soo it is unknown. +as said, NRG is one of best teams here, with new coach they will make wonders this season.
Yuck what are these maps picks... Ok, also what are these agent picks... This will be so random!
somehow NRG is favourite to win vs EDG, that’s crazy. bunch of nonamers 1st international tournament.
Watching NRG's match left me feeling hopeless, but then I remembered that mibr is the fourth seed from Americas and stopped thinking. They're officially the most shitty region now.
All these Chinese teams are so insanely bad it just hurts my brain, send them all home already please
Bro i get my dinner and comeback its OT?!?!?!
Who the heck is the idiot here
som 18-24 but 12 out of 18 kills are super important lmao, good thing to see som being succesful here at valorant and having some hard ass carry teammates.
that 2 kills on the 2v5 is crazy, he always find a way to win a crucial round
Actually Ethan ran knives over everyone in EDG in the attack. Out called by light years. What are those reads!!! Insane. They played perfect in the second half and OT. AND, this is worse than 12-5 FNS.
ethan remembered that boostio called edg trash and that they were chinese
I mean xd xd xd xd xd xd xd xd 11 2 xd xd xd xd xd china here xd xd xd xd mafia eats good today xdxdxdxd
only role edg has in the scene rn is letting kk try 20 more hero plays and if he succeds 1 or 2 making people call him the goat
it was a easy win if they did not do stupid mistakes i cant believe people are blaming the coach
kangkang if ur gonna get fat, u gotta get better right? how u getting fat and worse loooool
damn skuba is cooking as a rookie (at his first intl?)
mada and brawk too lol (and also som back on harbor hmmm wonder where i've seen this before)
What do you mean?
Only their 3rd and 4th seeds was play.
And they just lost to PRX, which is the best team in the world right now, and to NRG, the 2nd seed from America.
PRX is not even close to be best in the world XD
And that 3rd and 4th seed shows alot about how bad this region is if its what they send
best in the world btw
top 4 ewc and couldnt even be in bangkok, and had lucky run on toronto where patitek whiff would change the whole trajectory
Although i predicted a 2-0 score ,the game was very close, edg was better than expected
Bro I love mada, such a wholesome player!
GGs to NRG, insane game of you guys!
Smoggy was also amazing...
I didn't know champs winner can be bad team also watch out your team cuz ut will be tier 2 team
evreyone have a bad times no ? but your time since its started playing valo was bad at least my team won champs and got 3 in masters what did your team do cant even win one game in whole year
bro, its been 5 days and you are still coming to answer this post?
edg is mid, thats it.
yeah i couldnt replay to your comment cuz of something i dont wanna talk abt its all outside of vct like in the rl, like we are on our weakest form and we still pmayed good againts nrg and tl and almost eliminate one of the strongest team itw tf are you talking about bro anyway gg bro
a close game. EDG could have won the game, but there were too many mistakes that shouldn't have been made. sad.
edg threw abyss hard
and their corrode defense is so shit, util never properly used to anchor a site
nrg played good but its more like edg have no idea what they were doing
i fell asleep… no way EDG lost abyss with a 11-2 lead bc they didn’t convert the anti-eco…
