Pepper ecks has never had an easier game. Infact it's actually insulting for them and the fans that they have to participate in this lopsided contest. To be frank , calling this a contest is even egregiously generous, as it is, infact a one sided slaughter that #WGAMING will breeze past
This is merely a warm-up for ranked later tonight bang

Dambi isn't so great? Are you kidding me? When was the last time you saw a player with such an ability and movement with neon? Dambi puts the game in another level, and we will be blessed if we ever see a player with his skill and passion for the game again. Chronicle breaks records. Aspas breaks records. Dambi breaks the rules. You can keep your statistics. I prefer the magic.
NONGSHIM 2-1 NRG
THEY ARE WINNING IT ALL
ngl you cooked
Ur so right. Ive been watching dambi and his neon for a bit now and its clear his neon is on a a different level compared other users. Its like theres something he knows that others dont. I also feel like neon users at masters lack either the aim or movement to compliment neons cons. Unlike jawgemo who i wouldnt say excels at neon like he does on other duelists, dambi has mastered the mechanics of neon and his aim compliments it. I also think his game sense is a huge aspect of his game as he does things no one else does. His use of the judge and bucky is also a nightmare which shines both of offense and defense when filling in the site really fast. I think teams wont be able to develop a proper dambi counter strat until the next kickoffs or masters. Unlike rrq or g2 who have attempted to counter dambi with the odin and failed, maybe brawk might be able to? Who knows. It would be good to see dambi improve on other entry agents too. Something i found funny was players whose playstyle revolvle around their aim mechanics like primmie, marteen and leaf bought shotguns to counter dambi on defense.
nongshim lets go
nongshim 2-1 nrg
What can I say, people just dont want to accept the truth, NRG players not watching other games is crazy
Ns clean 2-0
KAYO VYSE SAGE comp incoming and I don't think NS can win this. I feel like NRG play style just their weakness.
NS 2-1 NRG
whoever wins this is 100% winning the tournament no doubt
yeah ..they get 2 map ban advantage.
no way drones are picking ns over nrg while they barely escaped g2, nrg negs 2:0

NRG ban Bind, NS ban Pearl
NRG pick Abyss, NS pick Corrode
NRG ban Haven, NS ban Breeze
Split remains
NRG is not banning haven bro what are you smoking
Haven is literally Nongshim's playground lmao they have both great attacking and defending win rates on that map. They'll try to take Haven off them to give themselves the best chance possible
NS literally banned haven against G2, and NRG's winrate on Haven is 17% higher than G2's
nrg banned haven vs bbl and prx after losing to prx on it
the geng comp isn’t great vs yoru neon, and ns already farmed teams running that comp (ts, t1, rrq)
why would ns ban breeze? Their breeze looked good vs rrq
cuz ns even picked split early kickoff and i dont think nrg’s split is good, but yeah ns might still leave breeze in
2 AMER and 2 PAC in final 4. where EMEA and CN at?

FAST GAME

13-5
being wrong in your first comment is crazy
Nongshim masterclass incoming.
NRG looks way too good right now, and they have played increasingly well against fast opponents. Let's see if they have an answer to Dambi. It's Bonkar's playground today.
Must win for NS if they wanna win trophy, would be crazy if NRG can anti tf outta this too
VAMOS NONGSHIM
please kick brawk's ass dambigoat
Dambi thinks he is playing Ascension.
2-1 go ns
sad dambi kept getting denied from his ace
Nice hard carry by Francis + Dambi on the finisher. way to end the 1st map
NTG defo wins this. NRG reverse sweep incoming.
is the reverse sweep on a vacation or smth
NA bots nowhere Nongshim's level, easy as hell
Someone tell me why NRG banned their best map Corrode?
also one of the best for NS
Corrode is also one of NS's best maps. Abyss is probably NRGs best map. Where is the confusion.
Ethan underperforming today
We’ve seen NRG comeback from worse
We’ll see NRG beat PRX again cause we all know that G2 aren’t beating PRX
mada really wanted to play prx again XD
Ethan 4-16 lol so useless
NS? Losing 1v3 like that on match point
dambi why throw the 1v2
dambi moment
whatever a comback yeah wow
lets go genshin finally man i cant believe what im seeing ♥
why u throwing dambi
France is!!!
ns are insane, ns n prx grandfinals
ASCENSION TEAM BTW 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
that was way too easy for NS. GGWP! Noodles cooked! Saya boys on top!
Brawk without odin is just a piece of shit🥴🥴
Welp.... gg
Francis what a performance!! holy
ethan got wrecked
no different than b00m esports even with ethan luck lol
This is my team!!!!!!!!!!!!! My boysssssssss
ethans gonna start talking again how this aint even his 30% of form
EZ FOR NS.
NRG 2 TIME CHAMP ETHAN LOSING TO NOODLE ORG IFYKY
No odin no win #odinwankers
I had a feeling francis was back since that g2 split game
ns are so strong wow i hope seeing more of them in the others events too and not only this master
Both good teams, thanks for the show!
Interesting to see the coaches sticking with waylay on abyss and getting it to work but the young players need to work on their discipline, still throwing away too many won rounds.
Welcome back Francis, glad your wrist is feeling better.
ethan only use 10% of his power
he became a baby when he saw Nongshim
NRG could EASILY won Abyss when they'd stop panicking.
keiko and skuba were absolute great today (keiko i.g. is so good in 90% of the matches), but still... it was always a matter of seconds to throw away a fully controlled round. I have hopes that NRG can fix that for the next match.
NS looks super strong, tho. Very, very clutch. Rb is such a masterclass IGL - insanely experienced and just calm as hell.
wait noodles are actually kinda cracked eh
Why Top 2 team G2 isn't there?
What happened?
Gold 2 are terrible in comparison to NRG
He said G2 is 2nd best team in the world so thats why im asking that xD

Nrg looked so scared on abyss
No korea caster, but they win
As long its not t1
has there even been evidence against T1 or yall just chattin? Cause atp people talking as if T1 is proven to be cheating
Prime Francis held off until he was needed the most, crazy plays today
If they lost the match after losing that 3v1 with spike delivered to their doorstep, I'd have thrown up. Holy lock-in for the 13-11. Please don't troll match point like that.
NS is the hydraulic press this tournament
brawk didn’t bought odin right?
13 games in a roll it's wild
NRG review:
Bind, on attack, the NA mentality of seceding ground in the post plant forces NRG into corners. If you look at the retakes of NS, they are constantly drawing horizontal lines on the mini-map, ensuring they have the back of NRG. NS would consistently hold ground so they were not all coming out of the same choke. Francis was also constantly testing NRG's knowledge of the closest to the angle rule. Many of the early kills from Francis were because he either pushed up against a wall that gave him an advantage or peeked into a long angle and found someone challenging him.
Countering this was hard with NRG's agent comp. Aggressive Operator plays require vision to counter. Playing fade limits the information you can get and at best you can use it as a body block into peeks.
Bind, on defense, positionally they were vulnerable. NRG would often find that they could not support each other when NS used aggressive pushes. NS could isolate defenders and NRG would come up with trades but would lose the site or ground they were defending. When NRG would try to group to counter, they would run out from a single choke and find NS reset allowing late rotation attackers to collapse onto defenders who thought they had cleared space only to find pressure they would have to address. Waiting to regroup really hurt the success they did find as the clock would constantly pressure them into aggressive plays that came up short.
Abyss, on defense, the answer they were looking for was an operator. You saw a lot of mismatching of weapons in the positions they initially started from. Guns in Valorant are situational and what dictates that situation is the distance from first contact. Certain guns are better than others depending how close or how far you are from the first angle.
Ivy dominated middle with the same plays over and over again. NRG seemed to think to gamble stack to counter the lack of mid control. They didn't have a good answer for this problem. There is an idea in NA that there isn't a need for sentinels, that controllers fill that space but better. I think Abyss is an outlier case due to the size. Any information is better than none and Ivy was there to babysit the trips. NRG just had no answer to security and their back, once they cleared space they had to hope it was secure.
Abyss, on attack, this was much closer due to NS overcommitting towards middle and aggressive plays from the wings. They tried to quick rotate by playing heavy middle and relying on trips from Cypher to get into stronger positions. At times this worked due to the lack of sentinel on NRG but other times they ran into NRG grouping together and the fights were closer. When NRG had control of the site, NRG persistence in holding their ground on the site again gave them even fights. But this made their flanks weak and it was only a matter of time before the right combination of pressure from their front and backs ended in a NS victory.
I think the insight to gather from watching NS play is that an opposing sentinel babysitting their utility would create an uneven retake and attack for them. If you watch the minimap when NS play, they always have a straight line across the mini-map of players. When a NS player is on an island, they are passive and allow their teammates to catch up and create pressure before revealing their position. While NRG found success playing off site post plant, they found more consistent success fighting for the space they took.
In order to win against NS' playstyle, you're going to need a mix of vision initiators and sentinels. The NA style of playing controller only is exploitable and NS is showing us in this tournament.
Thank you m4 for giving us another gem yet again for free
