I'll keep an eye on Lilo. New name to my ears but i'll make sure to watch some of his games, Is he a new player / young prodigy?

Or you learn how to take opinions and stop being oppressive! :)

Naah bro NAOS is currently going head to head with "ZOL Esports" and "OLD STINKY CAT"

Lucky for us Full Sense is winning ascension
Foxz, sushiboys back into franchising where they should've always been
JohnOlsen will finally get to play actual T1

:(
Even Jemkin went 0/14 and got signed to franchising afterwards
1 bad game doesn't determine a player, BUT neither does 1 good game. Consistancy is what matters!

Yeah but there he's playing Raze tho :I

I see your point, and i kinda agree. But he definitely has enough tech to shine on his signature agent Raze

BUMP

• If you want to see the polar opposite of KK, watch BLG whzy (Super Flashy Dive Duelist)

Oping? CRYOCELLS 100%
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8It_xjTofZ8 Theres wasnt too many VODS of him unfortunately and it was hard finding one where he stars on defence so he gets to OP a lot. I found too many VODS in Pearl and Haven... :D

Governor Ofc, he flexes a lot in ranked too

• He is particularly good at isolating fights, especially on attack, so it's worth watching his attack side

Geeza Is a good one, he plays a bit of sova and other agents too, but he's really open with his thought process on stream.

Unfortunately I didnt find VODS for Geeza or Governor but tuning up on their streams is never a bad idea

If you feel like want to practice more attack side and / or flashy entrying, then watch s0m, Something, MONYET (Must watch) or Zekken on Jett.

WOW. JUST WOW. His K/D is absolutely insane
Got me thinking if some of his stats from the Open quals tho. Still absolutely shitting on everyone. He might be a new star if he keeps putting up stats like these throughout the whole season

https://www.vlr.gg/player/9717/lilo
A new player for me
I see he has also played Astra and KJ, so i assume he probably has a bit more disciplined/passive playstyle, like Cryocells or Buzz?

wait wtf it posted the same thing twice

Oh forsure forsureeeee
I forgot to mention, I probably didnt list him bc i was think abt "underrated" and mostly T2 players.
Stew was doing so good in Chinese ascension, but during Kickoff his team was looking a bit Iffy. He could be a good new signing for a team like DRX if JDG ends up flopping horribly

https://www.vlr.gg/player/40367/splash
This guy?
I have never seen/heard about him LMFAO but by glancing at his stats he seems impressive, I'll keep an eye on this guy

I can list some, but can you specify for me which agent class you want to VOD review and if you prefer to see some specific playstyle. I can also give you some of my own points/thoughts from the VODS if you want :-D

Just my opinion, I think he got that bit of loco loco in his playstyle to fit for Paper Rex. Obviously he wont shine the brightest if the rest of his team has another style

Might soon be too late for JohnOlsen, considering players like Aspas, TenZ and Derke are 20-22. Hope he gets to reach his peak potential before retiring
As for Kadoom he sure is a wonderkid with a huge potential in front of him. I'm not a 100% sure but MITH might be keeping him in contract jail, but on the good side he at least has some time to still grow as a player before the grand stage.

I didn't have any confirmed information before, but I was suspecting this was the case. TLN got Surf instead, who also is a cracked Thai duelist.
Thank you for the information!

I think he has that bit of "crazy" to fill the shoes of Jinggg. Yes he's a onetrick raze. No he's not like ZETA TENNNN. I think when one has so much tech and skill on Raze, they for sure deserve to be able to play Raze on every map and to have the team comps play around his skills (atleast in T2)

Hahaha also 0/9 FK/FD
Unluchka game ig. He's been popping off in all the other matches

Oh wow. Props to him, FENNEL is looking really strong rn so he might get a chance to prove his worth in Ascension. I hope he gets picked up like tomaszy from SAW

• Kadoom: I've been watching Kadoom for 2+ years now, and he's cursed with Thailand 2nd place. This cutie patootie is putting up crazy FK/FD stats and some tome absolutely hard carrying his team. I know for a fact he deserves better. Sad that theres only 1 Thai representative in VCT PACIFIC and too many cracked duelists. Idk if he knows english but he deserves a shot in a franchised team.

• JohnOlsen: I stumbled upon his stream on twitch a bit before they won the 2021 LCQ and made it to Champs. Due to FS being pretty much of an unknown team I was fanboying for them at champs. Sad that they had to play with a sub and the team kinda fell off after it. Now he's on a great run with FS in VCT Thailand looking like a strong Ascension contender

• SyouTa: I haven't been watching the Japanese scene for that long, but thus far I have seen enough from this kid. He has convinced me that hes one of those Japanese human-machines absolutely carrying in all the matches he plays. It's cool how in the Japanese streams they show all the voicecomms during the post-map highlights, SyouTa seems like a really hype teammate Definitely deserves a spot on either of the Japanese franchising representatives. With dep being able to play initiator I think SyouTa would be the perfect addition to ZETA DIVISION

• Ray4c: Nothing much to say about him, I think everyone knows him as that crazy tiktok raze. Currently he's farming the indonesian split with Alter Ego. I think when you need a new Jinggg, he's the one to call. I love monyet and he was my fav player in ONIC (I was always rooting for them), but Paper Rex please poach Ray4c. Monyet can replace mindfreak

Please list other players aswell i'm too lazy!!!!

Boo and MiniBoo
They even share the same last name and almost identical IGN
Thats some crazy matrix level coincidence

2 words: Team Game.
Many professionals say getting to know others deeply in real life, helps building communication and bonds the team together. Most inrtoverted people will start to show their thoughts and emotions more broadly once they get comfortable with their workmates/friends.
Energy and form of communication (A.K.A Vibes) is an important factor on how a team keeps their flow and positivity stable

Wait whattt?????? Fisker was insane back then but wtf

• Fisker (If no one remembers he was the duelist for Crazy Raccoon in 2021 when they were relevant)

• Kryptix (Team Liquid)

• Izzy (Duelist for SuperMassiveBlaze)

• Dipsenser (Sentinel for Team Secret)

Jake has been playing sentinel only past few days hinting that maybe hes gonna be the sentinel for the team?

Valorant. E-Sports. Retire.🔥💪💯

No

I think pAncada isnt feeling well mentally rn and is rejecting all current offers. Heres this screenshot of possibly pancada that was on a thread yesterday
https://prnt.sc/RKL_jXK1JcIn

wasnt heat the one who admitted that he was playing to lose bc he didnt like his team or smth

PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEEEEEEEEE +PANCADA +NZR +DADDY XAND

exactly.
My point literally was the fact that K1ng is a high-caliber player but got to play in basically 0 officials on left in contract jail on bench.

T1 K1ng

Idk how challengermode works but im pretty sure u can host a tournament there on their website. Also probably on gankster. Both websites are really popular amongst all competetive players, even some t1 teams participate in tournaments on the website.
Both websites require one to link their tracker and the websites have a rating / review system so others can see hoe experienced you are or wether u grief scrims etc etc

I think Gatsh
H1ber is the goat but why the fuck is he not on duelist

NGL i rate it as one of the bests songs OAT

Pay Lucas Rojo!

I absolutely do think solo phoenix is the problem. I 100% agree with Saadhak on how sentinel agents are useless, since you pretty much can do the same defensive properties with characters like Viper, Astra or Omen, where all these characters provide more util for other areas of the game.
The biggest problem about this team comp specifically on this map is that they cannot fight for A main, or capitalize off the Breach util properly, which would be way more easier with a Raze.

Show us ur Americas and China pickems, Maybe u had the script all the time

Honestly, i don't really care which way the games go, but seeing KangKang on stage again would be wonderful

No shot, FPX and EDG are making it 100%. I feel like EDG were saving strats in the earlier games

Big changes with Big fans lead to HUGE results💪💪

Ohh... I forgot that nightshifts existed
