Nah because Riot gave everyone the chance to replay the round and the match still ended 13x5 so there is no fucking up, it's an objective analysis.
Also, previously they acknowledged they fucked up the FUT decision. So, logically, their decision in this specific match would differ because, as every human being, they are trying to be better after making a mistake.

This is the same reason nothing as stupid as my original post has ever happened again. They tried to be better and make more fair and moral decisions.

I could not let go the chance to talk about one of the craziest decisions in this game history

Vivo Keyd vs Acend - Champions 2021.

REAL favoritism would be a Riot official waking your team up in the middle of the night just to say: "Yo, you know that impressive victory against one of the tournament favorites? Yeah, we’re rolling it back."

And then you're forced to replay the final map. But here’s the catch: you start with a 7-round disadvantage. All of this because of an apparently bugged Cypher camera that barely even impacted the outcome. To make it worse, the map that started 0-7 ends 10-13, and your team gets eliminated in the very next match—completely stressed out and with zero morale.

That is a crazy scenario! Imagine if something like that happened in the Champions!

Thank you for the info anyway. It's always funny looking into past matches like this. We often find some pretty good gems

Thank you for the info! What about in a MD3? In franchising era? Do we have this data?

LOL I was talking with a friend and we were kinda certain FNS holds the record. He is the GOAT

Zellsis performance is making me think... who has the most negative +/- in vct history?

sus

Twitter links give me PTSD

They definitely need a igl but dropping Heat is a mistake.

Curiously Tomaszy was dropped by KC today. My goat would never!

How the f*ck a player get 3 consecutives top 3 at Champions and 3 international trophies and people still say this about the guy.

Team that wants to lose versus the team that doesn't want to win

NRG tried to buy Demon1, Saadhack, Aspas, etc..
They are playing the game but sadly the cards are not in their favor

Loud so far made a counter strategy for every team in the tournament. They are winning more at the enemy pick map then theirs lol

Fracture is the only map I'm not confident they will able to counter EG, it's cursed, they tried everthing and were only able to become competent playing at it. I believe it's Saadhack kryptonite, during VCT Playoffs, Less had to igl the map and create the composition.

They earn a very good amount of money. I know you're not from Brazil (probably) but even with our country being not that rich the organization is still able to pay them a lot. Enough so they don't need to work after retiring from VAL. After all the CEO is a multi-millionaire.

The problem is the NA orgs dropping a nonsense amount of money to steal our players.
The funny thing is the difference in curreny helps them (1BRL = 5 USD) but even then they are not able to pay and need public support like Sentinels or drop the player like C9 did with Yay. Poor management at its peak.

Ranger's Apprentice series

Almost half of the slots in this Champions where for Asian teams, no surprise they are doing relatively well

popcorn superstar

Sentinels right now is freestyling the competition, they are probably rolling a D20 and deciding their next steps based on the results.

LOUD 2-0

If they played on a better region they would had developed even more... Playing on Brazil only held their potential

Apparently, yes, maybe not a lot of fans but they are probably making up for it in other ways

Franchising is not about who had the better competitive year. It's about having a real project for the future, money, investors, stability, competence, etc...

That's why MIBR got a spot although their team having a bad year

He deserves it. Incredible in a ungrateful role. Controllers on top!

couldn't describe it better!

Apparently they proposed a very good project to Riot. Gamelanders are not a traditional team, they only exist in Valorant but the Organization they are linked with (Final Level) is a monster in the brazilian game scene working in the background of many brands.

Right now, Heat is still trying to perform with different agents. Since Jett was nerfed he has been having problems so it's not a big deal if some teams are not interested in him

short answer: they have a lot of money
