-carpe +stew

4 duelists roster lets go

they certainly need more firepower though they have insane & creative strats in some maps

carpe was playing vs vit

autumn is a dumbass

scream is that you??

hes a certified onliner, just like leaf

cook them regional merchant

surely this game meteor will perform right? autumn wasting his talent with bs strats. he needs proper space as a senti

he said he wont be playing on marvel team he will create. just the owner

GIGACHAD

we got talon roster change again before PRX does ;(

perfect time for one of them to slot in to replace carpe in t1

removing izu while carpe exist is crazy

autumn is the definition of a political coach in valorant. just be there to represent

at least they still qualified unlike NRG

meteor and buzz really have serious playstyle issues. looks like they really struggling to make plays together

chill on him. hes got chemistry problem with buzz (not comfortable using awp, so he had to use chamber in certain maps), and looks like he's still not really comfortable with vyse (kj and cypher are his best agent)

they still have chemistry problem, for examples meteor is forced to use vyse and chamber in certain maps and playing as awper. it hinders his potential.

man i wish he can replace j0nggg

meteor haven't been performing lately and i feel like he will go nuclear this tournament

biank about to make it 4-0 vs NA teams

match rating is so unnecessary this is not an anime review

crazy how freeing only plays tejo for 5 maps

+46 gotta be another new record set by aspas

meteor 60 bomb incoming
T1 2-1

g2 without m0nesy aint winning any trophy

its not delusion. we all know hes going to stay bro

faker goat can hypnotize whole sea audience to be his fanboys fr

fr these fans are too deep to the delusion

too attached to the power of friendship

yeah i admit mako goat humbled me ngl

T1 will be the first qualifying

they just started slow like gen.g last year

pass me the stuff brother

riot wouldnt like something impractical they just be copying stuff from league

it is shady if you consider who owns SOOP and who's their partner (faker)

but i hope its not that complicated

crazy how SEA used to have 10K averages in each sub region and now 3K combined 6 sub regions. SOOP really kills the scene.

this is a wake up call. the current meta really force duelists to be more flexible. there will be many more util agents coming so aim only doesn't work anymore.

man so aggressive and said i'm the one who's emotional 🤣🤣

i literally answered with as possible as i could. i never said japan didn't deserve the pass. i blame riot's decisions towards the practicality of sponsorships and ad revenues. how many times do i need to said this? lolol ur really mad its actually hilarious

its okay i'm venting and you're being defensive for the word "privileges"

two things can happen at the same time. its not like i'm the only one who sounds bitching and trying to correct someone here

why are you so mad about being called "privileges" anyway thats normal

being so defensive when i gave you some facts doesnt change anything

i blame riot decisions anyway not the region

undermining major as "some tournament" is ironic ngl considering japan's biggest esports event is EVO and ALGS

you know leverages needs human power to negotiate right?

market wont be swayed if the makers not announcing themselves to the supply and demand. its the basic nature of free market

just separate APAC to pieces. its too big to combine as one region. the result is so many talents will be underscouted

look who's the organizers

sponsorship pulls rely on who made the event

this proves my point that riot decisions are solely based on the ad revenue percentage & sponsorship practicality. basically its easier to manage if its nearby. it would be different story if riot use their office in singapore to make a LAN there not only in seoul. just like ESL does who manage dota and CS2 events

you clearly havent researched much that SEA also the place for some of the biggest esports event (Bali Major, Blast Singapore, ESL bangkok, not to mention the mobile games)

sounds like you're also trying to prove that your region dont have riot privileges. we are the same here

LOL now we're talking about populations

now try combine the 6 sub regions viewership as one
so much for SEA doesn't have "viewerships" to provide riot money and "self-sustainibility" 🤣

stop gatekeeping the privileges and just accept it

ur delusional

sub region vs major region btw

acting like singapore cant afford a good infrastructure to do all that. the big question is japan is a sole region to qualify for apac ascension while SEA has to combine 6 regions (more with mongols and taiwanese, soon aussies too) just
to qualify for ascension. Indonesia and Thailand alone can compare the revenues to Japan. If you're talking about orgs, japanese orgs are still new to the scene compared to SEA orgs. (Talon, Boom, GAM, Team Secret are all established in other esports) But riot is chinese/korean company so they want something practical and nearby for sponsorships thats the reality.

the crowd capacity 5K tickets all sold out the event was supposed to take place in Tokyo, jakarta is the replacement btw

you'll be mistaken if you think sea doesn't have viewership. even the sub region alone is MASSIVE. now thanks to riot move the official stream to SOOP we will only watch the highlights most of the time

the problem is the t2. now sea region is not only for sea
