EZ grand final for EMEA, OpTic has allergies against EMEA teams and DRX is a certified playoff chokers.

EMEA back to back World Champion starts now.

EZ tournament for EMEA, all teams in playoffs

All EMEA teams win :)

Yeah, so many white knights in this forum for regions outside of EMEA & NA that it's actually starts to get annoying.

finally Asia will win a trophy

Players Nationality > Org profile

Yep, a Chinese org with EMEA VALORANT team

Now all we need is FPX to qualify for playoffs and beat DRX to shut down the whole Asia once and for all.

G2

This means Tekken & Street Fighter are goat esports

Feels like Riot just keeps on trying to give these minor regions a bigger shot to win the trophy on purpose by making sure that one of them reach the final since only NA & EMEA are the only regions that had won International trophies.

Technically it's Acend if people treat Champions just like Worlds in League

another International LAN, another zero trophy for Korea.

I remember this, it's so annoying consider that it was single elim

actually Riot hate both NA & EMEA in VALORANT so bad because they are so good since they are the only regions with International trophies so far thus made Riot want to make these storyline of minor region winning a trophy. Same thing happens with league as well where LPL & LCK were so good they made regional clash happen early in playoffs.

True, but dont worry because FPX is going to cleanse our eyes with some quality plays

Go next and Fnatic quick 2-0 win so we can finally see FPX owning Xset.

Some Thai's already got triggered and malding with his tweet 💀

lowkey, not really Impressed with the quality of this match, both team just not at their best and just played bad in general.

based

facts

FPX: The Russian Duo
XSET: The rank demon duo

just showing his grind and hard work mentality

LOUD really need to win this, there's no way that this LOUD's Brazil superteam project ended the year with them getting grouped again, and LOUD gotta prepare and aware for the possibility of ZETA's anti-strat play since they have faced each other before.

not for ZETA though, every threads that calling them bad just filled with their white knights and weebs siding on their so called "wholesome country" even when they just not that good in general.

same reason why you hate NA teams

cringe weeb thread

27 year old player always hard carrying the region since his younger days with no signs of upcoming young prodigy caliber level player from his region to replace him once he retired

27 year old player like Laz shouldn't be hard carrying the Japanese scene everytime with no signs of young prodigy caliber level player from Japan. Feels really bad for him.

true, but the rest of his teammate tho

more like carrying Japan since his younger days with no sign of new young prodigy caliber level player incoming

1 month of bootcamp with Xdll in Europe just to play TENNN in the end

and It was on Haven as well

They just overthinking alot

CHOKERX fans back in hyping them over a win against a team like Furia

chill bro DRX only winning 16-14 against a team like Furia, it's not like they are going to win the trophy anyway.

Well that's what happens when the region has such low competition

All they need to do is just don't choke on important rounds and can actually bounce back when they somehow have to take an L

DRX has 100% winrate on their International LAN Opening Match

if DRX lose to Furia, they need to disband and restart with a new roster

bruh you're just like the typical Japanese community that like bringing up the Iceland result when EMEA was not on full power at that time

Yes, so many people in this forum doesnt have the objectivity when talking about Japan's gameplay quality as a region simply just because of the humbleness from their community.

BOOM 2-1 ZETA

BOOM has never lost to a Japanese team and they have decent experience in scrimming and playing matches against JP teams so they have a decent winning condition to win this series.

Imagine if Asia having 6 teams at champs but not winning the trophy in the end 💀

there's no way that this is a coincidence anymore

and Russian imports as well

That is something that I believe many Japanese FPS fans have said to Laz since his younger days but he still not went overseas until now

Sadly Japan will still have to rely on Laz, yes there are players like meiy and xnfri but they are not players with prodigy caliber level like f0rsaken, Jingg, or Derke, Japanese teams still relies on imports in levelling up their play where you can see the Duelist/Chamber role in most JP teams are filled with imports while the domestic players is filling more on the support role, no upcoming another world class player like Laz from Japan yet which is worrying for a region with huge fanbase like Japan.

It's crazy how Laz is consistent and rarely have an off day which is show that he is a world class player trapped in a weaker region than NA & EMEA, kinda feels bad for him since the one time he thought that he is finally in a team where he doesn't have to keep hard carrying after that 3rd place Iceland run he suddenly playing in a match like back in his old days carrying Japan since the CS era

nice jinx but LOUD is the better team and more prepared
