Everyone in reject are from tier2-3 or academy team. They had lucky bracket honestly. BC swell, Jedaite, fav are so much better than them

Pretty sure crow is the igl. Laz is just a captain of the team not doing shotcalling

Ngl I kinda like him being on controller more than duelist. He feels more reliable on controller than duelist.

Another banger match.
If zennakukin and toraneco plays decent they will easily win but if they run it down, then FL win.
Hopefully 2-1 SZ.

Honestly feel really bad for Vici, smth and nobita. SG needs to find descent flex player and IGL. But It’s not like Japan has good IGLs either…They need to pick up from some young talent from academy teams or teams that didn’t make it to challenger.

He really can’t play anything other than duelist. The only time I’ve seen him play other roles are skye and harbor both of which are just bad. The whole point of his existence is his mechanical skill and his op, but he really seems like the worst player in VCJ.

Jemkin was absolute monster the entire time. I wonder why they put him on reyna instead of jett on icebox. It’s not like he can’t play jett. Kr1stak can also play jett as well

NVM I was checking his stats during 2022 and damn ur right. He's stats are actually really bad. My bad

I can tell you don't even watch Japanese scene with that statement. He's been GIGA underperforming but he's been consistently good in Japan (regional level ofcourse) during 2021 and 2022. I'm not saying he's worldclass superstar or anything. That match was just example and I thought it was easier to compare since he was playing agaisnt something.

Watch Fav vs Sengoku 2022 Stage 2 (I think that was breeze) . Fisker literally owned something with his jett. He's just not performing well with scandals and stuff.

Bruh Japanese player really needs to step up. Like fisker and Misaya's performance has been horrible since the beginning. Toraneco and zenakukin and nobita go on and off but the only Russians are consistently performing.

Russians are toe to toe or slightly in favor of SG but Scarz have better macro and teamwork. Honestly, team who’s Japanese players performs better wins. Personally scarz 2-1

should've let medusa play viper takej reyna or something.

its just zennakukin in kanji letter

Jeez BB's foundation is actually really good and they've been improving since the new roster (except Zenakukin). Japanese teams often rely on imported players like SG but even when two russian players got bot fragged, they still won pretty convincingly. I can't wait to see their improvements further more.

Reject played garbage like yesterday, but they had better mentality thanks to their experiences as veterans. But men, Reita popping off hard last map. Dude 27 but still playing really good

how much did you lose?

Well yes it is a rule and I'm not salty about northeption lost cuz FS played amazing and they 100% deserve it. I'm saying TO does not understand how double elimination works and this should be fixed from now on in all regions and all tournaments. Also I do not understand why every region has different rules in LCQ(probably because they have different TO in each region ). Like in South America LCQ, they have group stages and top 2 teams advance into the main bracket with no lower side. They should have unified rule set. Although the matches were absolutely pleasure to watch, the production quality was meh.

Yea like just a map ban? I know it's still an advantage but considering how double elimination works in literally any other game including CSGO, just a map ban is not significant enough to be a real advantage for upper bracket.

What is the point of double elimination format when the winner side and loser side has the same condition in grand final? There was no bracket reset nor a map advantage in Northeption. Like there was literally no advantage for northeption despite them being in winners side. TO really needs to learn what it means to have double elimination. Still good stuff to Full sense, they played so well and Northeption kinda burnt out after bind. Also the way northeption played was repetitive and they were so slow on adapting.

PTC naded him. Although Astell should've sticked to plant
