I didn't even vote, this one is on yall. ( I wouldve voted for sen)

They just beat a very good TH team, who knows they may be able to beat an inconsistent EDG team

Also TH out in 2 rounds is crazy work, speaks to the level of this tournament if the teams yall chose are the ones that make it.

According to VLR these are the standings after game 2
Playoffs will be in 30 minutes. (put your reasonings in the forums so it gets bumped and there are more than 3 votes)

2-0 (in playoffs): G2, VIT
1-1: SEN, EDG, T1, DRX

trace vs DRX

sen win first map 13-9, next 2 maps go to G2 13-10 and 13-8. Its ok though we win out and beat G2 in the GF

last bump for the last couple minutes

Apparently im dumb, its all fixed now

According to VLR users this will be the teams in Bangkok
EMEA: VIT/TH
AMER: G2/SEN
APAC: T1/DRX
CN: TE/EDG

Now onto the Swiss stage, vote for your winners (note ik fir the first round teams cant play their own regions and 1 seeds cant play the other 1 seed but since we don't know that yet, who GAF.)
Also put your reasoning for the winners so it can be bumped so I don't have 3 votes each! (next round will be drawn in 30 minutes)

I just reread the ascension rules and form my understanding G2 have to make champs every year to guarantee their spot in T1 or if they don't they have to go to the ascension tournament and win (They probably will) but having a team as good as G2 be in jeopardy of being out of T1 if they have a bad split seems lowkey off to me. Also if I'm a team that's a partner and G2 just fell I could go to them promising a permanent stay in T1 and get the full G2 team on my team. Also seems iffy for teams that ascended but some of their players are like 16 who aren't gonna be able to play (sorta like 2g rn). imagine rankers ascends but next year they cant play with 2/3 of their players cause they're not 18 yet. Thats ruining what makes rankers, rankers.

Who needs a vyse, put him on Jett and watch him drop 30

Lakers get a center and its over. Goat gets his 5th

he was their coach, many people knew that

might not be a transfer technically but Sen Dani is actually more forgotten (if you don't count the one game he played for them, he was technically their sub for a time)

2-1 G2. Sen pick up first map but then G2 wake up and next 2 maps are like 13-9/10

he is genuinley top 2 and more than likely #1 in best Tejo's in vct, what games have you been watching talking about uncomfortable

With the goat FeNiS going -40 for kickoff what have been the worst performances over a whole tournament in T1?

bros copying me fr

I have basis for every game besides GF tbh, my reason for Sen winning is pure belief in the team and that's it

Kru dont make internationals unless its a mircale run to champs

Hes playing duelist for Cubert but if he's meant to replace Zellsis like EVERYONE says he is, why isn't he playing those roles? who plays Duelist for Sen? who is on record saying he doesn't know if he wants to retire or not cause he wants to go to college? Zekken. I don't want Zekken to go but if I'm Sen and I have this kid who I invest so heavily into, I'm making sure the practice he gets is for the replacement of the player he's meant to.

Its meant to be N4RRATE, bro was a god on KC, He just hasnt gotten off to the best start, when he gets going though people will see

If you think this is wrong, you're incorrect.

Lower Round 3:
MIBR 2-1 Lev: Lev just don't look all that good and MIBR is picking up steam at the best of times. LEV will get better as the year goes but Aspas revenge arc will go crazy.
LOUD 2-0 KRU: I see 2 VERY close maps like possibly both going into overtime but Loud IMO are just a better NRG and KRU almost fumbled the bag, maybe a 2-1 but I'm leaning towards 2-0.

Upper Final:
G2 2-1 Sen: will be much closer than G2 Lev but G2 rn look like actual gods among men, Lowkey I think Sen pick up first map and G2 wake up and next maps are like 13-9/10.

Lower Round 4:
Loud 2-1 MIBR: Very close IMO, New loud duelist in DGZ and the old legend in aspas come head to head for the first time in their new colors and while aspas wins the battle, DGZ wins the war and loud methodically win the game in a 2-1 fashion.

Lower Final:
Sen 3-1 Loud: Sen are a very prep heavy team, with more footage and having already played them once previously, I think Sen get the win and book their ticket to bangkok, also tell me the last time Sen lost a 5 map series? ill answer it, 2021. it will start out 1-1 and sen will pick up the next 2 maps.

Grand Final:
Sen 3-2 G2: Again last time Sen lost a grand final? 2021. An absolute barn burner of a match and will be talked about as one of the best of the year when its all said and done.

Had Trexx Sayf and Leo on one team, Got 2-0'd by some random team
Had legitament 4 T1 players on OXG, Didnt even make ascension
Have Mada, Verno, Som, Ethan all very good players, Look horrible right now with no hope

I havent gotten a single ad in so long, idek what they would look like on vlr

We will be there

i put G2 my friend

I agree sen will probably lose to G2 but I think it'll be 2-1. Then Sen play the winner of Loud/NRG and honestly I'm like 65/35 Sen winning there really depends on how they look against G2

which team makes it over sen and nrg?

Imagine, DRX, T1, TH, VIT, EDG, TE, G2, SEN/NRG
just imagine the swiss stage let alone playoffs any team can beat any team. Every game is must watch valorant

L take

hamy, their content creator, hes radiant, thats all I know

IMO besides maybe furia, if KRU play any other lower-bracket team, they lose. 2G just look absolutely horrendus.

probably around a 75/25 split maybe closer to 70/30. I personally think its closer than that but people are discrediting LOUD's wins since they were against 2 pretty bad teams

How many dollars I have in my bank account

Reduxx wont be joining unless Sen suck or someone gets sick/needs a sub. Idk about next year cause all of them have said they want to play for as many years as they can.

imagine having 4 stars like you really must not have a life to do that

Right now, you're pretty much throwing if you're not running yoru on pearl

Agent bans can be good when done right.

what fluke run happened in madrid?

Optic Gaming ofc, look at his flair

yea texture and jawg are way too cheap for how good they are. TMV get on that.
