Wait so there's no academy? Is that confirmed? Because that would suck

real
I slept through my alarm and missed a lecture today
now I have a lab tomorrow with no idea on what's going on

oh wow I didn't even clock that

goated movie

this is it for anyone wondering: https://liquipedia.net/valorant/WALL-E_Cup

why did I read this in the tone of that one beyonce song

looks like SEN won't have to drop them

my goat is so back

XO - EDEN

I've been listening to him since my childhood so I get why some might not think it's anything special

nice flair

Yeah I'd say pretty much the same as everyone.
Look in to some coaching. If you can't afford it there are many streamers who do it for free (although there are some requirements, and you might have to wait a while)

bro good luck getting real comparisons most people are gonna pick apart the lists 😭
(I mostly fw the lists though ngl)

the map cover 😭😭😭
im doing engineering, am i cooked

org country ≠ player countries all the time

look at Spain for example, you have: KOI, TH and GX
all of which brand themsevles as 'Spanish' but don't have any Spanish players (outside of F1tinho, who is now inactive)
KOI had koldamenta in 2023 and after underperforming they removed him, which is very similar to what GE did in 2023 and 2024.

The best you can hope for in this case is an academy team, which I believe they've expressed interest in doing

FNC are a British org, yet I don't really care if they have British players or not, I still support them. (2025 is likely to be Boasters last year I've heard, so next year they should in theory have no British players). You are welcome to not like GE, it's your opinion but I think if you expect them to have Indian players simply because of their location it's a bit short sighted imo

cender isnt staying, just kicks

although that brings a separate issue on to how good sayf's IGLing will be. So I would've preferred cender staying

so.... you're saying there's a chance

this is what it looks like on a map btw

imo it shouldn't even need to be a buff it should've been the bare minimum 😭😭

breaking bad - crime drama
homeland - political thriller
big bang theory (you'll love it or hate it) - science comedy
top boy (show about UK gangs) - crime thriller

ngl I didn't even think of that, they're both part of CIS which has historically been EMEA
I think Sultan must have residency somewhere in APAC

Would be someone who can play all roles and has a good sense of the game with above average mechanics.

imo Chronicle
forsaken should work too if he doesn't W key

Ilya Petrov mentioned???

Wow.

wow so I shouldn't keep myself safe?? I did not expect this n1cf

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/fc2ee563
start of the DFM era

only thing im watching ngl, might watch rezero but ive forgotten literally everything thats happened

good idea
it's so messed up
idk why but I get like 50 ping to Istanbul and one of my friends from Saudi gets like 100 to Turkey, even though Turkey is roughly in the middle between us.
And then for some reason he gets 80 to frankfurt?

damn wow

idk how people feel ab this but I don't want 4 stages in TDM

I'll take a pistol stage (maybe like 20% of the match) with a classic/ghost/sheriff and then vandal/phantom for the rest
and if you really really want you can use the spectre and bulldog and stuff, but it'd be optional and available after the pistol stage

favourite probably sideshow, he knows when to be goofy but also does good analysis and casting
I don't really have anyone I dislike really, if I had to say maybe Lothar? But that's not with much insight outside of the G2 jumping off thing ngl

Interesting, maybe that means f0rsaken will play jett/neon then

yeah man! I loved that they were experimenting with new agents like Yoru!, they struggled intitially but found their footing, hopefully Derke has practiced a mean neon for next season! I can't wait to see him play neon for fnatic!

Maybe consider VIT, they are getting Less (from LOUD) and Derke (from FNATIC)

is VCT CN the TO?
If so I can't wait since their production is really good, it'll be like having a VCT event

was about to type pretty much the same thing
well said

i thought this too 😭😭😭

good afternoon (in 42 minutes)

more collabs in general would be nice

get me on there https://tracker.gg/valorant/profile/riot/Aayan%232005/overview

(ignore literally every other thing than hs%)

Against 6/16 'FeetLovers' 🔥🔥

Get the penguins of Madagascar and you have a superteam

Rico - Duelist (esp. raze)
Skipper - Smokes (IGL)
Kowalski - Initiator (Second Caller)
Private - Sentinel
zJos - Flex

keke

they were really good against FNC and TH in scrims at Champs, they defo have dark horse energy

kaajak
(might be more hoping than expecting, but he defo has the potential to do it)

yeah I won't lie autumns last few years haven't inspired me with confidence, but I think going full KR speaking might finally be a good way forward

Who you think will be better?

T1 are building an insane roster on paper, but GENG recently announced they're keeping munchkin which will likely mean they're great again in 2025

lowkey yeah I know a few Moroccans irl and I'd say they have above average looks.
but that's anecdotal so take it with a grain of salt

Damn ive done 4 of these

im biased but W list

🥲

from the screen to the ring (literally)

Instead of asking how to improve VCT like normal let me do the opposite with this hypothetical

Say you work for valve and you become an industry plant at riot, and you've just been promoted to Leo Faria's position
What's the most subtle but effective thing you could do to kill VCT (you would have to be able to sell your idea to investors/the community)

I would: Remove ascension (I would spin it as some sort of thing for stability), do exclusive streaming on YT for some short term deal (thanks OW). What would you do?
