lol stat only prove literally nothing. champs: they were in the death group, LOCK/IN so far, dude are we watching the same game? he's playing sage on icebox and Lotus, vs EDG? RBHG: he's the entry, getting impact kills? lol watch the game

res sova ulted? wall sticking bomb getting spam by 5 people? eating util while planting? i can list 5-6 more reasons why that role is the worst role ever

lol seems like you don't play high elo valorant

once he got spammed and rushed by haodong

he's just getting timing every time, spammed every time, traded every time. poor guy

play sage on icebox and people will get it.

i cried bro
i would have a near perfect pickem if i had actually locked in my pickem

somehow they get the best games and moments as well. DRX vs OPTIC champs, XSET vs LEV copenhagen, then FNC vs LEV, honestly the first map of NRG vs GIA was goated as well

he doesn't look comfortable on the role. honestly put him on the sentinel role, and put sheydos back on the flex since we know sheydos is a great flex for M3C

gigachad i approve

genG put up a great fight vs loud and if they didn't toss a 2v5 away that swung the momentum, they would have got pearl. Fracture went to OT lol. did DFM even break double digit in rounds?

hey no nitro disrespect here. he did well on 100t

reverse jinx copium?

? they were straight trolling wdym?

and no prep? how many times did kayo knife hit them?

its fit1nho. He's hot and cold, there's no in-between

well.. let's see if he can do it vs the big dogs like LOUD, TL FNC NAVI or even the NA team

he does sometimes give us a bit of a scare whiff once in a while...

lol everyone that has a brain for valorant can call out exactly what giant was gonna do

they could have ended that A LOT sooner

saadhak on raze hopium again? that would be fun

lol they straight didn't watch NRG's vod. how many times did the kayo knife hit them?

he did go before the stun though

and not even their fault. they looked really good

tbf he threw like 2 rounds though. still great performance though. most fit1nho game ever

sure? i guess

wasn't loud debut in 2022? unless ur talking team vikings, which it was only sacy and saadhak, which is not the same org?

has he actually played against LOUD? wasn't it just 1 time in Reykjavik?

im not hating on the rookies, they are great. look at that bracket, c9/drx waiting, have to beat a great-looking EG first.

4 lol stay mad. that's why i have a life

that sounds like a you problem my g. study harder

EG's setplay was insanely disgusting. those flash plays from ethan was ridiculous. they have great discipline as well for a new team, which i feel like talon won't feel as comfortable like they were vs MIBR

we'll see honestly. EG looked really good, C9 destroyed PRX and DRX is, well, DRX

yea talon ain't getting through that bracket with 2 rookies, still good team though

if you actually look at the entire season again, they were 0.02 seconds away from a spot in Reykjavík. lost to a, undeniably, on-fire Guild, and the best EMEA team FPX narrowly 2-1. And they were flawless until Scream and Jamppi became gods. since they didn't make a LAN, everyone forgot how close each time they were to qualify. Guild definitely had the better peak, but consistently, M3C had a better year, as apart from that copenhagen run, which i won't deny, stage 1 and LCQ were disappointments. im not denying that sayf is a great player. He is a great player, but putting him over the likes of chronicle is so wild to me. Honestly, sure you can make the argument that Guild had a better season because they made LAN, beat optic, got out of group, but i would argue Leo was their best player during that copenhagen run.

im just making an argument that BBL would convincingly beat Kcorp and the gap between Heretics and Kcorp are a lot closer than you might think. like i said, the bo3 kcorp vs fpx was probably the worst series to watch so far, as both teams looked super sloppy with questionable strats and comps. I'm just not allowing any BBL slander after that performance vs DRX that's all

do you know why fpx got haven. its because kcorp gifted them 4-5 rounds because of the 1 person A hold without contesting A lobby strat. Like what? we all know there's 3 ways to hold A, op a long, contesting a lobby through sewers, or retake. im not underrating them whatsoever, FPX played a good haven, but Kcorp was SO BAD on that map. dude and also DRX never beat LOUD on ascent because THEY NEVER ACTUALLY PLAYED LOUD ON ASCENT

dude they are a Rookie team on the international stage. im not underrating chinese scene. that was their first international lan, throwing in the format in there, and kcorp, with scream as the leader, with shin, xms and nivera, should have the clear LAN advantage. GenG was one round, one round from taking a map from LOUD, while putting up great looking attacking side on pearl. did you actually watch the match? at one moment, people actually thought they were in danger, it took saadhak's heroic round 22, cauanzin and tuyz's 2v5 clutch on round 18, which would have put geng up 10-8, instead of 10-9 down because they had to eco. i might be underrating FPX, but you are overrating the hell out of kcorp and underrating the hell out of BBL

sheydos is a beast, he's just on the wrong role.

they had 1 hot run and beat M3C, who was at the time going through changes with the roles, the messy russian stuff last year, to go to copenhagen. otherwise, if we looking the entire year as a picture, M3C still had a better year overall, they just got SUPER unlucky with their opponent

with Foxy9 in the lineup instead of zest? also didn't they run that exact comp last champions and beat FPX twice. sure its new meta, ascent meta is basically same shit. the second ascent team last year (LOUD was the best). and you saw with GenG, how good that team is, going toe-to-toe with one of the best team in the world. KCorp's game was SO SHAKY. I repeat, THEY WERE SUPER SHAKY vs a rookie fpx team. they were being underrated by Haters. No one underrates them whatsoever if they have a brain to think. 50/50 how? they should have swept fpx clean, instead what i saw, and what most pros saw, and what people with brain cells for valorant saw, was a messy match.

dude they got so unlucky with the emea bracket last year. who did they actually lost to? A close 23-21 overtime lost to Fnatic, lost to a, at the time, very hot g2, lost to a, at the time, very hot Guild, with a role swap btw, then narrowly lost 2-1 to the BEST EMEA team FPX in the lower bracket, then at lcq they went flawless, but met a god-like version of Scream and Jamppi at the grand finals

who actually seriously put kcorp as the underdog in that match without hating them? any person with logic put kcorp sweeping 2-0 vs fpx. and they showed that nonsense of a haven map. pearl was better but not convincing enough to put them over BBL. BBl took, lemme remind you, ASCENT, off of, lemme remind you again, DRX, one of the favourite to win.

who put sayf over chronicle? Yes sayf is a great player, but chronicle was M3C's best player, better than nats last year

bro kcorp did not look like a good team. they looked way worse than heretics, certainly not above BBL. BBL too low, that roster, with some more experience, is a dark horse for a LAN spot. KCorp is 9, maybe 10 depends on how FUT looks vs GE. EG is, i say, a dark horse in americas. Where the Americas top teams are, EG is just right below it. Top dogs in americas are the 4 NA teams, LOUD and Leviatan. EG right below them, as in they could upset them if they are hot, then KRU and furia that typical mid tier team, then MIBR at the bottom

attacking sided comp... let's see

this is where not having that astra hurts

k1ng played with vision strikers

quick scope i think. more like turbo scope

it will be full top 4
