i dont really get it, the players are pretty chill and dont really talk shit allat much so i doubt its cause people find them annoying
is it really just because of the way they play?
even that isn't really how it was anymore with jaw in the mix

Tejo meta, perfect valorant, Golden Era music video

I dont hate them btw, these are just a few of the reasons that ive seen people bring up

i feel like everyone capitalized off the tejo meta though no?
as for the perfect valorant part its a bit of a diff approach than most teams and imo is interesting to watch. esp cause it gets more spicy nowadays with jaw doin his shit

the music video was a bit cringe yea but it also was just for fun, none of them are rappers

i dont really understand how someone could hate them over any of this, just doin it for the love of the game atp

Not to the level that G2 did, these guys rarely lost a round once the spike was down and trent was alive. A lot of people hate the slow paced game style (I agree its nice to watch). Rap video was cringe but the main thing was that they claimed to have started an era when they didnt even win anything internationally.

thats true ig, g2 def abused tejo the most
it still feels like its way more hate than they deserve though, theyre literally just a good team who plays more disciplined than most others

I would’ve said it was cuz they choke but ngl the hate subtly started before they even qualified to Shanghai

yeah i guess i just dont understand why them in particular
th are also serial chokers yet dont get a fraction of the hate
it might be because people thought they didnt deserve to make it to shanghai along with 100t? iirc both teams were kinda called flukers back then

i mean i prefer fast paced teams too cause they usually deliver more hype plays
but slow teams like fnatic and g2 are fun to watch too, esp when they sometimes turn up the pace cause its unexpected
g2 was always fun to watch

I actually am convinced it's propaganda because people like to call G2 a boring ass team, which might've been fair 2024 but in 2025 they were actually so fun to watch. Meanwhile I am seeing SEN save in 4v5s, play retake simulator and see nothing.

it was somewhat valid in 2024 but theyre literally just fun to watch w jaw now

Their fans were insufferable about this "perfect valorant" bs

Like yeah SEN/PRX/whatever have rabid fans but that's just expected esports behavior. It's only G2 fans that kept claiming they're the best team itw while choking every international, as if other teams are incapable of good macro and valoplant executes

i guess i can see that
but tbf you cant really blame them when g2 in regionals looks like the best team this game has ever seen

i will always consider prx the worst and most delusional fanbase on the planet though
straight up insufferable
love the players though

They really don't. They farmed regionals because they're good at counter-stratting and because americas teams were all volatile this year. The actual trophy winners all looked better at their peaks, even gen.g before the wolves choke

This would’ve made sense if the hate didn’t start much earlier than the perfect Valorant thing

Well before the "perfect valorant" accusations they really were overly passive, which is where the "boring" claims came from
