Kimmie "Kicks" Laasner, it says right there in the article

So just because a player was bad on one team they're not a bad player? Shouldn't the converse then also be true? Just because he was good on one team, doesn't mean he's a good player.

Pretty much any top 50 player can easily get #1 if they just play enough during a specific time period. They all have positive win rates and positive KDs because their average opponent will always be outside the top 50. At that point it's really just about number of games played.

Who is Curry and why would I care about his KD in ranked?

What do you mean back to 100, it was never at 100, it used to be 60

Oh that's why he has the German flag on vlr, gotcha

ez for Bonkar

26-1 OXG (QoR win a riveting MasterCard thrifty round in round 7 of map 2)

12 and a half actually

The fact that the word Zander didn't just leave your mouth is criminal

Damn, without you the average would be 12

yeah but not CEO anymore

These two video titles are sending vastly different messages about Zeta

Was my joke just dumb? No, it must be all the vlr users who are wrong

Given that Carlos is not really involved anymore and G2 was locked into partnership before the Carlos thing happened, I'd say there's a chance.

Arguably Lobster Fishers clear more than two thirds of partnered teams

Unfortunately the GOAT Bonkar will lead Oxygen to the VCT, MxS has a good shot for 3rd place in NA though

Yeah can't believe the people three years ago didn't say C0m, idiots

The only reason Mistic was cut from Fnatic was because the introduction of the partnership league meant Leo and Chronicle were available. He would have 100% stayed on the team otherwise.

No time to laugh, there's wörk to do

Meh, you used to be funnier

If you quit then what's the problem with dropping your account name?

DS era was the best. The DS is a goated console in general and the animated sprites of BW are so much better than the modern 3D models

Pretty sure his name is United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Governments all over the world are invested in all kinds of popular sports, pushing for example to host major tournaments (see Qatar football world cup for example, there was pretty much no football scene in Qatar beforehand, it was purely a government effort).

Sports can help a country with their international image ("sportswashing"), and also promote national brands which sponsor national sports teams, etc.

We don't speak Polish silly we speak Bavarian

Absolutely delusional.

Best Sova is clearly zekken's dad

I mean they're about on par in terms of history.

S0m was better overall than Tuyz for sure, but Tuyz was the better Harbour.

I agree Jinggg is the best ScreaM player

Isn't Portugal that part of Spain where they speak Brazilian? 🗿

I didn't say they're bad riflers. I said they're good awpers. And they have always been the awpers in their respective teams.

Thank you Devoted, I can really use that money 🙏🏻

Unfortunately he's Bri*ish

Yay and Cryo were never really duelist players anyway. Both of them only played Jett because they are good awpers and Jett just happened to be the best agent for awping. That's why they both don't play Raze very well, and why they were so much better on Chamber than other previous duelist players.

Teams just put their best players on Jett in the early days of Valorant, regardless of which role would actually suit them best.

Who cares where he grew up. Genetics don't determine gaming skill

Aw I mean the GBA was great too, I just think the NDS had a really practical size, a good selection of games, unbeatable battery life, and honestly the graphical capabilities were quite respectable. Plus the two screens and the touchscreen allowed for some really fun gameplay. I loved Pokémon as a kid (still do tbh) and the animated sprites in Black/White are just soooo good, so much better than the 3D models nowadays.

Oh and something the newer consoles don't do anymore: Backwards compatibility! You could still play the GBA games on the NDS.

Actually a good point. Why would yay fans know Ascension players? They had no reason to watch since yay didn't even qualify

Haven't bought it yet, but New Super Mario Bros for the NDS was one of my favourite games of all times (NDS Lite goated console tbh) so I will definitely try it once I have a bit more time

I really hope whatever team he joins just put him on KJ, and maybe Chamber on the maps where he might be viable. Just look at Alfa and Less to see what you can do on KJ. It suits his playstyle much more than the Jett. Nobody holds angles with a Vandal like yay.

I think with some time to adapt, he could be a much scarier KJ than Jett

He was good at champs 22. Shao and Sacy were better for sure. Maybe crashies as well, might even throw Mistic in there. There's no way he wasn't top 5 though.

She dix on my neuf till i quatre-vingt

I really don't get why everyone is singling out Destrian as much as they do. I felt like he was solid throughout the year. Better than Bonecold and Molsi (love both of them, but this was not their year) and about on par with cender.

Bro is just pasting this text in every thread 💀

Don't disrespect the GOAT

Guys I promise koldamenta will win a title this time just give him one more year

Demon1 wasn't a rookie or what? I didn't see him in Ascension

As a proud American and an avid NA fan I have to admit we're doomed. EG's win was a fluke (I'm an EG fan, it's sad but true) and all of NA will get destroyed next year.

Alfajer had the exact same trajectory. He wasn't destroying everyone in tier 2, he was a solid player on a solid team. Now he's one of the best in the world.

Everyone has to start somewhere, and there's always gonna be cracked players in tier 2. I mean now that Valorant esports has been around for a while, all new players will have to start in tier 2. Do you think new talent just gets born straight into a top roster?

Of course some of them are gonna flop, but I'd rather see talented young newcomers over the same old washed ex-CS pros.

Oh damn, I did not pay attention to the EE VCL lol

Fair enough

Both points make sense, the first one just confuses visa and citizenship.
