Radiant it's about aim, not about having a gameplan that rely on teamplay
Nope, if they are ranked that low is because EMEA was horrible to watch at every level, every team looked kinda bad. Even VIT where doing weird move and won almost only because firepower (They almost loose against KC that was really shaky too, loosing against GX), the problem here is that a lot of EMEA team where rebuilding and not being good, and they should have rollstomp the kickoff, they didn't and get eliminated in a really humiliating way, while GEN was eliminated in a close BO against T1 that wasnt bad, MIBR shows intresting things, so yeah, they might not be the worst seed 3, but still... (Based on my ELObot they are the best team that didnt qual, but the bot doesnt care about if the win was close or not)
PS : i'm not saying EMEA will be puretrash this year, I think a lot of team have time to improve between Kickoff and Champions, Vitality especially even if they where shaky in Kickoff, will be amazing if they continue to improve during the year
Let's be honnest, if I would be coach, and my team have a plush, I would hug it at everyround, 5 lovely guys but someone share one braincell can just decide to destroy your career by doing shit at any moment, ofc I would hug the ugly cube for comfort at any moment in the game T.T
Depends of the draw, 2 seed 1 might face each other
Except now it's Tejo-Breach, things hasnt change a lot since this day
So basically an analysis of what type of composition works : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Os_TUrIpEDE
And basically the situation at this masters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1zLGoGBMN8
I'm saying the analogy doesnt work not that "it's not 1:1", nobody makes hard calculation anymore, and everybody uses calculator. If you say "look at this car flying as train" and I answer "Cars dont fly" you cant answer "It's not an analogy 1:1"
Because calculator doesnt tell you wish formula would you apply. Today i almost always use calculator when it's possible, but the real challenge is to pick the good formula to put in the calculator
The reason why your analogy doesn't work, is, to me, the reason why your reasoning is false ^^. If bot can do better than us, why shall we do it ? ^^
Math is about to know "Wish formula I have to apply in that context", things that calculators dont
I really hope so, but i'm afraid their success (winning EMEA, and being at least top 4 world), might make them delusional about the lack of teamplay. They have potential to rollstomp champions with a little bit more of teamplay, but it's rare to see a team with success do reassessment, wish mean they might have stagnation :/
We need a 2024 G2 that will slap stratégically a team that have twice their firepower to make them learn it's impossible to win inter by playing a semi-ranked
Yeah, and what is the most sad, is that with a little bit more of strategy and rigor the team could be MONSTRUOUS
But because nobody is able to challenge them in EMEA they will probably "not change anything" because "if it's not broken why change it"
Wait bro learn about butterfly effect, (or just how support people can be good for the mental health)
I'mm so sad seing all European flag, our team have no national identity wish is sad
47% Non Mirror Win Rate for Tejo on Bind over 47 games T1+T2
Leo Faria is an absolute monster on the server, a player whose mechanical skill and game sense make him look like he's playing an entirely different game. His aim is pixel-perfect, locking onto heads with terrifying precision, and his movement is so fluid it feels like he’s gliding across the map. Whether he’s holding down the c site on Lotus with just a ghost or dismantling sentiluls with insane crosshair placement, Leo Faria makes it look effortless. His ability to read the game and outmaneuver opponents is next level, constantly making plays that leave even top-tier players questioning their existence. Watching him play isn’t just entertaining—it’s a masterclass in dominance.
I've a dream where Sentinel where the first and the last western team to ever win an international event
Wait shouldnt be "average" instead of a sum ? Because some team can 2-1 no ?
Fair enough in that case, I'm even sure Marseille is too far from the highroad to make it worth to go in Marseille if you do italy --> Spain, then you probably pass by Aix instead of Marseille (that probably look far more to Montpellier)
WTF Montpellier T.T ? Did you really saw Noailles and Calanques ? T.T The weird mix between the poor Newborough that have drug dealer, just right next to the rich neighbourough just living in front of a hiking spot on mountain, with drug dealer having loyalty card, and Olympique de Marseille being raise at a level of a religion where the Velodrome is a temple (It's so high I suspect Mulsim Marseillan to go more to the Velodrome than at the Mosque), with hills everywhere on the city, and you systematically go up and down. To me they are a lot of things that makes the city unique (Calanques specifically, weird culture too)
This humorist have made a good summup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JSMej2gB80
Wish part did you visit ? Only the "Vieux port" and the "Cafetière" ? (Thats the only part that couls be seen as Montpellier to me)
Opinion on the weirdest city in the world : Marseille ?
GenHBaby, pretty fitting for someone that always post under GHB
Why does chinese food price is really low compared to Japanese food then ? T.T
Hm People like less Abyss than the other map it seems :c
Then the problem is more people that cant accept opinion more than the debate itself I think ^^
And sometime I manage to have constructive things on vlr, they are still a hope in it
I strongly desagree with you, thats thanks to clash of idea, debate and everything, human species is able to do amazing things.
Sure his argument is poor, but thats not because he doesnt master the art of constructive debate that we should stop debate about thing.
Even more, debate allow us to understand each other more, maybe we will not find a common conclusion, but if we listen enough we will understand better the taste of the other and have a better understand of the world !
Lets just wait end of split 1 before doing anything for Tejo, lets breath some fresh air before destroying everything and back to Stalotopia
Thats because of my accent, even when i'm writing it's confusing people :c

Hi vlr, today we are gonna review the composition in Abyss for the 8 team that participate in Master Bangkok. Keep in mind that team might change their composition . So here is the last composition played that the 8 team that has been qualified...
AS you can see, no team have an horrible reccord on this map, and only T1 didn’t has won any Abyss, but they have played only one, and Trace esport have a balance reccord, but the 6 other team has a positive reccord. Liquid is the most successful team on this map with 4 win for 0 defeat. DRX and Vitality have 2 win for 0 loose, G2 and Sen have also 2 win, but 1 loose, and finally EDG have 1 win but didn’t has loose any game.
About meta everyone play Sova except Sentinels, they replaced him by a Tejo, but only on their last games among the 3 they played on Abyss.
Same for Astra, everyone played her, beside Team Liquid, that replaced her by an Omen.
Script
Jett was played by everyone beside T1 and G2 that replace her by a Yoru.
Almost every team has played a flasher, either a Breach for G2, T1 and Vitality. Or a Kayo for Sentinels, EDG, Trace and Liquid. And in fact only only DRX has played no flasher replacing him by a Tejo.
For the last agent, half of team choose to pick Cypher, but EDG and Sentinel prefer play Omen instead, G2 choose Chamber, and Vitality play the infamous 3 Initiator composition, filling with a Tejo.
In conclusion the meta is kinda fixed for the first four agent, 1 duelist usually Jett, 1 flasher Kayo or Breach, 1 reveal, usually Sova, 1 controller and usually an Astra, they can have some variation on thoose pick, but thats the 4 main one. And for the last agent, everything is kinda open depending of the gameplan you have, you can go Cypher but you can also choose to play doble controller or do weirder things, so we might see a clash on phylosophy on Abyss. Thanks for listeninig the last video of the series, and for one, let the masters begin...
Only top 1 pass opn a group of 3 ? Really bad format, I have a full series of video against that, and to improve group of 3
Suspicion on unfair advantage
Verification of unfair advantage
Improving format for 3, 6 and 12 team It's mostly the last one that is more in the subject, tldw : It's really har to make a good format for 12 teams (5/10 is good, 4/8/16 is perfect, 3/6/12 = nightmare), this last solution talk about how to limit risk of group of 3 not creating any bias that result into competition integrity being break
The actuel pickem system is trash, you could select the 4 best absolute team, and still not have all the point because of the draw. (Because even if A will always beat B in 100% in case, B will beat C in 100% of case etc etc etc, 4th best team can end after 5th team)
What we should have for a swiss with 8 team is :
Even with the worst draw, we are sure the 3 best team pass and the 3 worst team dont pass, for the team 4 and 5 it depend of the draw
it's kinda what happened in 2024 Masters 2 :
Where based only on transitivity on Swiss and only swiss you have :
So a player that have the correct poweranking picking FPX over FUT, will lose point even if they were right.
For NA it's in their mentality, it's in DNA to not think about long term and just thinking shorttermwise, all the economy carry the stigmates of their philosophy : profit in short term or nothing. If something doesnt bring you a penny RIGHT NOW CHANGE EVERYTHING to have something that wioll bring you penny RIGHT NOW, even if thats trash on long term.
For Europe I don't know, we have this mentality but less, the shame of EU is that our team doesnt represent our country, we are the only T1 region in the world in that situation, no french speaking team, no german speaking team, no spanish speaking team, so barrier of culture into less stability I suppose.
Probably another reason i'm afraind Asia will dominate Val in the future as they did on LoL
I'm on the verge of renaming into "Allat Valorant"
"Only reason why EDG are rated highly is bc of them being Champs winners."
yes and ? :chad:
It's just fear and self-doubt, SRG gonna loose because of that, but they are still better than them
I'm starting to think we need real bet on vlr since how people want to spend money like that
Welcome to 2022 guys, same mapool, same agents !
Personally, it's the first event I say that. EMEA have a lot of rebuild, China beside EDG is a little bit shaky, and APAC is intresting, but G2 where amazingly impressive, they had an amazing teamplay and a lot of firepower, I come from LoL so i'm a NA hater, but for this masters NA look amazing, while EMEA look absolutely garbage (Even if I trust VIT to progress for Champions)
Hi vlr, i'm still ill but it's finally over, Abyss, the final and last video in this series
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ag5yewUaUCA&feature=youtu.be
tldw ; Almost every team plays Jett-Sova-Astra-Flasher (Kayo or Breach), for the last agent it's open, half of team play a sentinel and more precisely Cypher, but doble controller are also a thing, while Vitality plays the infamos triple initiator team. What do you think is the best choice for this lastpick ?
List of video of the series :
Intresting, really intresting.
Based on the fact the gap is closing, and based on the fact KOrean manage to have an even worth birthrate than Japan, when do you think Japan will become better at Val than KR ? 2100 ?
