THIS IS WHY C9 GO BY CHOKE 9!!!

The Winner of this match, gets the third slot for Shanghai.

NRG clearly lack an IGL and a better Coach. Sentinels doomed themselves by choking against EG.

I hope neither Kru nor Leviatan drop the ball. It would be underwhelming not seeing them at Shanghai. And It would be fun to see more of El Clasico down the road.

I don't mind.

That's the problem of having a such of a mediocre team in G2. They are not good enough to eliminate LOUD and EG make into the playoffs, but they are not terrible to make Sentinels qualify to playoffs.

Choke 9 will lose their first map because that's the thing they always do. So congrats MIBR for winning your first map in this phase.

Aspas plays Poker.

They are better than all brazilian teams and also NRG. But I think they would choke against the rest of the field.

I thought too...

Just a mediocre Team. They only beat teams with very little or no prep time at all, or actually bad teams like MIBR and Furia.

Just stop comparing Aspas with ANY duelista. Just compare Keznit, Semen1, Oxy, Asuna, memezera among themselves. Aspas is just in another level. Also, what a great game from Mazino, I think people are overlooking him.

Semen1 and Ethan cannot do anything without Potter.

I think clove runs greatly on Icebox. She can easily fill the duelist spot since this is a map that CAN be played without a duelist.

It's bizarre to think that BBL can qualify as the top seed or not even make the playoffs. That's Crazy.

Zeta and NRG. It's just frustrating to watch their matches.

They only play "greatly" in one half of each map, and even then, they have been stomped in one of the two maps they've played in the last few matches. There is a serious argument of them being worse than Furia because Furia at least won two maps against Kru and Choke 9, but again... It's Kru in their first match with Heat and Klaus being the IGL (and It was a close game, 13-11), and a stomp against Choke 9 who cannot win their first map in a series.

Furia and MIBR (in addition, Brazil needs to lose at least one slot).
KOI and... Maybe Giants, Gentle Mates? The second one is a tossup between a couple of teams.
DFM and Bleed.

There was a point were brazilian broadcast didn't even bother metioning his name. They called him by the agent he was playing (I believe that happened in Masters Copenhagen).

The Sky is blue.

LEV 2-1, Aspas drops 95.

É a disputa de quem erra mais. Isso explica o baixíssimo nível dos times brasileiros nas franquias.

He better starts playing Reyna Because he already told that Riot can't Nerf his aim. Well, just play Reyna, then (Or Clove).

NRG has the worst attacking side I've ever seen. They are too passive on the attacking side, and there is a world where 100T wins against them.

They have great trade setups and Klaus midround calls are mostly great. He might be the best IGL in VCT Americas.

I don't think this Viper nerf will take her off from Breeze, Icebox, Bind and even Lotus (but It will require some adjustments) . I think this nerf will change the Viper default on Split 100% and possibly Haven. This is 100% a response to those teams who think that Viper replaces Killjoy (Hello, Loud).

Oxy is a solid top 3 in Americas. Zekken and Jawgemo have been too inconsistent to me. Why is Cryo not the duelist from 100Throws? He single handed carried his team to win Breeze against Kru.

Just play with another agent, bro.

LEV is not going to drop a single map because Kru already have the seed #1 from their group. They might play just basic default setups or like crazy comps such as SMG GC had done with the 4 duelists + Cypher.

THE 0-9 TEAM GO ON A RUN!?!??!??

Congratulations 100throws

Memea didn't even make into playoffs in Masters Madrid.

NRG Just lacks a strong macro strat, in addition, Ethan's midround calls are just terrible.

Potter is the real goat.

CHOKE 9 is finished.

Are they gonna be 13-0'd?

This is why C9 go by CHOKE 9

Classic Choke 9.

This will be an interesting match. Both teams are cooking so well. It's a tossup, honestly.

Cloud 9 2-0, Mwzera drops 14.

É mais digno dar ff do que se prestar a esse papel.

mwzera is at the very bottom of VCT americas by rating. In addition, he chose every single one of his teammates to play with him. He is not trapped.

Bizerra é mais flex que sentinela. Tudo bem que ela assumiu a role de Sentinela agora. Mas a origem dela é ser mais flex. Mas se você quer incluir a Bizerra nesse balaio, então tá, segunda melhor controladora então.

Crise na org verdinha heim KKKKKKKKKKK. Tão queimando dinheiro com essas duas lines criminosas. Essa Viper da Lissa tá magra demais. ANTG tu merece algo muito melhor que isso mulher, sai dessa.

Não faz parte da panela. Claramente a melhor sentinela do cenário.

Ainda pipocou no segundo mapa.

Neither Waved nor ShitRN can perform nicely at those tier 2/tier 3 matches in Brazil. Have you seen them playing against these sort of teams? They just bomb every single match, just delete them out of your mind. The only GC duelist who has played well against top VCB players is TL Bstrdd. Remember that Bstrdd was +2 or +3 against Florescent, who is considered the best duelist in the GC scene. Now... Is Bstrdd a franchise player, not yet. But if TL manage to climb their way to VCB, it might be an argument for that.

Zombs, Kencc, Srn, Qck, Keznit, Malibu...

A LOUD tirou 2024 para queimar dinheiro, tanto na line das franquias, como nessa. Fico assustado em ver a Tayhuhu e o Mand ainda neste time.

After the first few weeks of VCT Americas, TL seem to be the best brazilian team at this point lol
