As long as he is not on Deadlock, you can trust him
No
I am just happy we won Challengers NA bro
I still have PTSD from last year 😔
Do the thing
Do the tripple Sentinel
How is it Sentinels if it is a single sentinel and double Sentinels never go well for you. So do the tripple.
I mean if you are saying M80 doesn't deserve it, I would like to hear a reasoning. they went through MXS, OXG, TSM to be here. Their comps have been a breath of fresh air and their plannings have been immaculate.
We lost two of our big players last year, had to call in neT in middle of the season because Nitro thought it would be funny to go to CS2 and still we are here. What else do you want us to do :)
Not until Ludwig stops wathcpartying your most important matches
Hating is kinda crazy no? Not even their own fans expect them to win and make it out of the group lmao
OXG and MXS didn't die for this 💔
They have used it like 3 times already. Might as well use it since everyone already knows about it.
Jett was a nightmare
I love this team so much man. It doesn't even matter if we win. I absolutely love these weird comp they do on lotus and somehow it always works out
Thank you for your services.

Trying to spread a narrative that GE is a competent team
Welcome to GE Sayonara
We will be the best team ever (TnC applied)
Wait what happened to him?
Here's my two cents.
I do feel like apac still needs PRX. Even after all that GenG has done and it's incredible what they have done, 2 times masters finalist, one time winner, on path to having the greatest season ever but at the end of it all, it's still Paper Rex. They are iconic. Yes they are not as good as GenG or even DRX at this point and have looked honestly bad over the past few weeks and I have criticized them over the past weeks a lot but I just can't count them out ever. It's this feeling. You think about Pacific and you think about Paper Rex. It's synonymous.
Oh no... Hide before he comes...
I dunno
I heard Nismo's parents have a restaurant
That sounds cool
Aight will let the boss know
Everyone has lost their minds
No freaky, I am not
The only thing I am desperate about is watching M80 in tier 1
Bro hold the fuck on
The game is tomorrow
Everyone is losing their minds collectively due to no valorant
@LeoFaria see what you have done you bastard
Ok so... Here me out... This is just a thought I've been having.
Before being discouraged by the length of this. Just take a quick look. I promise you'll find it interesting.
For context I want to remind you Sentinels have the largest valorant fanbase ITW and contribute to A LOT of their revenue whether its from ticket sales, to online, to watchparties (ahem tarik) to merch and everything else.
What's been happening in Valorant esports as of late? Masters Shanghai. (Geng 1st, TH 2nd). I think riot saw major decreases in revenue from NA. No teams in the finals will surely do that and a lack of support from the big fanbase of SENTINELS will surely contribute. After all, high expectations as before Shanghai, business was booming as SEN won Masters Madrid. The money was flowing for riot. Now, not so much. As said before they saw rev decreases during shanghai mostly because (as much as I hate to say it) sentinels does bring them a LOT of viewership and a LOT of money from NA and elsewhere.
So what does that mean? Simple. Because Sentinels failed to qualify, when asked who the best teams in the world are valorant fans would say names such as TH, Geng, PRX etc but no Sen. After all a team that cant qualify cant be the best. No more SEN at internationals meant riot lost a huge portion of their revenue from this massive contributor. Thus, SEN lost their identity as a major powerhouse. Riot thought: "well its fine... They will qualify for Seoul and shit on everyone" and we will be back to making lots of money from them and we will all be happy greedy pigs. Well, sorta.
Yes sen have qualified but what riot weren't expecting was the group draw. Oh. My. God. If Im riot im thinking holy shit now even if sen win first game against the best team itw (geng) they have to play TH???? Theyre doomed. Panic mode activated. If Im riot im thinking its too late to save them at seoul so I enter crisis management ASAP. What can we do to get this team (our primary moneymaker) back to the top where they can be most profitable? (after all, more matches played, more rev. Keep in mind it increases per match until GF)
That's where the map pool comes in.
Riot shocked the ENTIRE valorant esports scene by readding split and pearl, whilst removing icebox and lotus. Huh... Weird. Wasn't split just removed? And why pearl? They changed nothing to either map?
I guess it's a concidence a map like Lotus is very favourable to Fnatic... A coincidence that TH have an 80% win rate on a map like icebox... Huh.
Funny how Sen's best map is split but it's also geng's worst (50% WR) and pearl? The map that was known by everyone as JohnQT's best map on ghost gaming? ok....
It certainly looks to me like they just single handedly nerfed every other region's best teams whilst buffing one team in NA the minute they didn't qualify for grand finals.
You cannot deny the evidence is there.
Why would riot suddenly panic change the map pool in this way?
If they had it their way I bet it would be in effect for champs
But that would be wayyyyy too sus
So they set it up for after the tournament to dodge allegations.
Dear riot,
I see
Right.
Through.
You.
see you next time
TLDR:
Basically Sentinels make riot A LOT OF money and them doing bad hurts their econ. After they didnt qualify for Shanghai and got an unlucky draw in Seoul, they needed to act. So they want to nerf Geng And TH whilst buffing SEN with the new map pool changes for 9.08 after champs.
Allat
What no games for a week does to a mf
Isn't headcoach coach and then assistant coach is the one who helps him. Playing coach if I am not wrong is a coach who is actively playing on the roster while coaching and performance coach I think someone who looks after the team's performance. Not sure about that one tho since like two teams have that on their roster.
I mean he probably is malding
But it is a bit strange for them to return Split after a patch
Defo not to rig it against Sen tho lol
Wednesday, July 31st. The sites are crowded for the Champions. Even with the bad scheduling. Hidden in the chaos is the element, waiting to strike like snakes. And I'm there too. Watching. 2 years of bad signings have turned me into a malding vermin. I must choose my targets carefully. It's a big community. I can't be everywhere. But they don't know where I am. We have a signal now, for when I'm needed. When that free agency LFT tweet hits, it's not just a call- it's a warning. To them. Propaganda is a tool. They think I'm hiding in the shadows. But I AM the shadows. I wish I could say I'm making a difference, but I don't know. Whiffs, losing duels, bad signings- 2 years later, they're all up. And now this. This org's eating itself. Maybe it can't be saved, but I have to try. PUSH MYSELF. These dms all roll together in a rush, behind the twitter account. Sometimes in the morning I have to force myself to remember everything that happened. Then i remember I have to spread more propaganda to lure innocent players in GE to try and save this team. So I leave for another night of sending dms to pro players and coaches.
