it's ridiculous that u can just go from left to right right to left and spam a choke point or smoke and there is almost no counter play to that other than wasting a lot of util and then it just helps u stay a bit longer on site lmao

nope if he has vandal he gets traced thru smoke and dies

Lmao it's sad i hope they nerf it the fact that it penetrates like its op or guardian but has 100 bullets no recoil and faster fire rate than phantom is cooked. Good on nrg honestly but the paper walls and 10 choke points on every map in valo just make it unplayable

And every map left is very good for odin gg. Brawk is the diff if they win he is the mvp of the year for them

None bcs every map is OP for odin so nrg wins

So sad this champs had the chance to make them the best ever this year without a doubt the stacked teams goated production amazing stage but that songs lineup tuff

I think this zesty song is giving him a buff

It's not the worst but it's so zero aura tbh (like it's like created for 13yr old girls and furry's that read fantasy books) i would be waiting for it to be over or fall asleep on my seat ticking away die for you superpower fire again those were all fire aura

infinitely more aura ngl

ong the artists they choose for this one is the worst ever

cortezia was pretty good idk

Schizo

Well didn't he retire for a reason i think there is no reason for him to retire just to grind ranked a month later to come back to pro fnc kept him for years on bench hoping he comesback and he retired instead

Doesnt matter grand final champs is nothing to scoff at and also he's hyping it up for everyone W aura farming The finals are even more hype thanks to that

It's a series so yeah we are judging players by the series not by a map kajaak got a 30 bomb and lost the map so

I mean thru all the year i'd still rate 1Emea 2Apac 3Americas 4China if nrg wins im willing to place Americas 2nd

All the maps left are good for both teams its a very hard call

And adding chronicle to your case of FK FD he actually get's a FK many many times i remember not long ago was a match where he was +10 in FK FD in 2 maps this is better than many duelists but yes inherently it is the same thing as i said that duelist mostly get opening kills that weight the most and if you are supposedly the goat then why would it affect ur rating in a negative way unless u are actually losing those fights, now that's not something a goat does is it

"Fights where the player differential is even (5v5s, 1v1s, etc.) are worth the most."

"The survival contribution was intended to be a metric that rewarded players for saving valuable guns into the next round. This entire component was removed from the rating to focus it on the value a player provides within each round. The original weighting of this contribution was small, so removing it has a fairly minimal effect, but it is another minor chip in the armor of passive play."

" The overall weight of assists in Rating 2.0 has been reduced."

"In Rating 2.0, the effect of trading on a fight has been reduced."

"The original rating was a combination of five factors: a kill contribution, death contribution, assist contribution, damage contribution, and survival contribution. The kill and death contributions were by far the most impactful, and they incorporated information about things like economic advantages, trading, and weighting the player differential for each fight."
So not only u were wrong about kast and kd but you are still wrong about 2.0
So what are u saying?. Yes but the overtime happend bcs verno saved mibr in a 4vs2 viper pit situation. vs drx he also had amazing clutch rounds. Also killing in a round is different then clutching a round that was supposed to be lost. Verno was more clutch that's the truth actually aspas has one of the lowest clutch % on this tournament if u check stats lol. And the round for example where verno turned a 4vs2 into a 2vs2 no time to plant win round at a mtach point doesnt count as clutch bcs he wasnt left 1vsX but still it was a clutch nevertheless

you're right if we are talking abt acs but im talking about rating 2.0

There are literally official valorant articles that state that Kast and staying alive is 4th and 5th from their 5 factor rating. And said that first kills count even more and kills in a 5v5 scenarios. You're just wrong. And yes i watched the game where on each map verno saved a crucial round or was even the reason it could go to overtime lol. Sure Aspas was killing a lot but when each round was important he get 1 for 1'd sadly. He is propably the best duelist in the world. But ratings wise before this tournament he wasnt even close to being the goat lol.

Then also include that you're getting drop'd hero vandals, operators' getting gifted orbs, and swinged for first so u can re frag. Chron is the guy that drops his gun to the duelist yet he still had better stats than aspas before this tournament. If aspas continues this form sure but rn this is just recency bias

First of all duelist have easier time getting higher ratings yet aspas excluding this tournament managed a 1.08 rating over all int he appeared at. recency bias is crazy. Yeah he did great here, still lost, when shit hit the fan it was mostly verno saving mibr. So not only duelists have skwered ratings since kills and first kills count like 3x an assist. He still had 1.08 rating chron had 1.12 as a flex player that played 3/6 agents each tournament

You're a nrg fan if you'd compare these teams performance nrg was 3x better than prx and y'all still wouldn't dare to call them favorites just bcs they are less popular

What? XD crazy intelligent take that u cant correlate arguments lol. I was talking about their whole tournament they only looked good vs g2 lost to fnc with a sub and completely threw a 9-1 lead this is NOT something a tournament favorite does simple as fuck. They looked mid vs bottom of the barrel teams and y'all were convinced they'r gonna somehow win the whole thing lmao that's just pure bias and delusion

So if we're forgetting the 9-1 lead that they lost to fnc? 12 rounds lost in a row btw. 13-11 13-10 13-6 as the torunament favorites vs some fckn GX just pure bias they didnt look good at all.

Yeah 11-13 on gx map pick and 13-10 on urs "the favorites" vs "the guys that are lucky to even be there" is an accomplishment for sure, Favorites behavior XD

13-10 is not nearly? on their own map pick

But u still cant fckn read can you? does it say worst community or the most toxic community dumbass.
I know that league is toxic i had 3 accounts in that game propably like 5k hours still valorant community is just so bad from every angle.
Tho funny that if u say i believe in idk Flyquest to win worlds ppl will say "nah flyquest is shit" on vlr ppl will call YOU names and then the team lmao. even recently Sending death threats to shanks bcs prx lost lmao. Valorant community is bunch of mentally unstable kids.

After groups? buddy they almost lost to GX anyone with some oil in their brain knew they dont look like fav im surprised they even made it that far if heretics didnt shit the bed they'd alr be out

Fns just as unenergetic + bitter unc washed and glazing everyone that's playing good next day if the team he said is playing sooo good are losing he say's "they haven't been playing that good recently to be expected they lose" fns= no spine bitter washed unc tarik also unenergetic but at least he doesn't paint himself like the god of knowledge

Well we are not judging it by toxicity level but worst community i'd agree its #1 def. Ppl leave games after 3 rounds lost. Crying. E daters . Actually mentally ill ppl. Full mute aswell and tiktok culture. Give me another game that has just that there is none tho league is close

Ancient is not a community map. It was officialy made by valve to be a modern Aztec

There was this guy that was aruging with me that if u watched the games in toronto and prx yt channel u would see pat men was 50% reason of their win. LMAOOO he was always a fraud

Lmao how is that not the same tho cs2 hasn't seen cache and cobblestrone ever

And it was added quickly, and it was loved, now it's deleted.

Bud before latest 4 new shitty maps they added in 2024 they added overpass in 2013 and ancient in 2020 (premier maps)

Well fnc actually inted ascent many hero plays from nrg but fnc made them possible by playing some situations absolutely worst ways possible but abyss was full nrg

The sage pick was especially bad since they were against an odin also they had no plays ready for splitting retakes they all go heaven and get spammed

cause they are the most played maps so they dont go out of map pool but still they have the same maps years after years, valorant at least each map has something unique also valorant is fairly a new game if you'd seen cs maps in ealy days of cs u'd cry at how shit they were actually

imagine rarga gets on ozempic and becomes yoru lookalike

Or Navi hiro ruxic shao looking good also shao russian BBL - lewn

Actually damn -miniboo +rarga could be big

well losing confidence with so much experience and being glazed by so many ppl everyday is not an excuse for his performance he's actually getting diffed ofc prx lose when their strats rely heavily on strong aim duels jingg had an amazing start but fell off something was invisible

Wow no shit community maps are good, so what? valve will never add them lol. They are playing the same dust 2 for like 10+ yrs alr

"doesn't deserve it" while also cooking up innovative comp for his playrs that allowed them to go this far they were the first ones here to pick up waylay so much and pair it with yoru

if drx goes to gf then possible since nrg's best maps are drx's best maps aswell they wouldnt ban them. drx good on bind corrode abyss ,mid on ascent and lotus whilst nrg best maps are corrode abyss lotus so nrg would have to risk it with each ban tbh

Farming some noobs in groups, in playoffs he's 1.01 rating he's lower than some smoke igl's XD

Something having a terrible tournament

Something been really trash this tournament

Drx lotus is also very good
