The grand finals was NOT pointless
It went to 5 maps
So they are definately not invincible

:3

Fym free him. Mibr literally came 3rd

Wait I need context lmao

Meteor is a top 3 sentinel in the world when they do let him be a top 3 sentinel in the world. These comps are genuinely making him handicapped.
Like it was so hard watching him on map 5. Every single team WILL take advantage of that. Put them on those exact maps and make them uncomfortable

T1...
They pull out some wacky comps
It can be a hit or miss
You just gamba
Like that Lotus comp is fire
Split comp is DOGSHIT
Why are you putting Meteor on Chamber when they can easy counter with Tejo
It's so wild
So yea, it's a roll a dice team

I am reading allat

Factos

Avoid G2, Vitality, EDG

Sen looked genuinely good
No one was carrying which is a good thing ngl

Yea that is bad
Like last year when G2 made that gun smile joke in stage 1
Holy shit they were so tilted

No I agree
I get what you mean
It's like since they are such a big fanbase, their toxic minority is also very big

I mean most of them are from baiter alt accounts
Like for example, Assmolestia has an EG flair and he writes a lot of shit against every team other than EG and NRG. Does that mean you share the same sentinels with him?
Now take that, and consider for the size of Sen's fanbase. You are gonna have more baits.
When they win, they talk smack, when they lose, they are talked back to like the day they lost against G2. It's a constant cycle.
It's kind of the way I hate Liverpool but I am a fan of Liverpool too. You can always distinguish the team from the dumb ass fanbase. Band for band, meat for meat, toxicity for toxicity.

Also I think a lot of the reason you see so many threads from Sen fan, is because they are the team that mades fun of for losing the most. So when they win or perform well, they just want to reply back to all of that.

I mean tbf, you can say this about most successful teams.
After EG won, EG fans were so smug and all
When Fnatic won, their fans were smug and shouting how their team is so good, being condescending towards others
It's the same with most teams that win
And it's VLR, the prime place for toxicity.
The "good" fans as you put it, don't really come on VLR.gg. No sane person comes to vlr.gg. So when you check out the opinions from a place filled with insane people, you are gonna find insane opinions and toxicity. As simple as that.
It's the same with football, or any other sports too. The successful teams always have the loud insufferable minority and the reason you only hear from them is because well, they are loud.

I am not saying you are wrong in feeling what you feel btw, this is just me explaining. You don't really have to read :)

Yea pretty much
Their best player is out of commission till Stage 2 mid

Be chased by 50 wingmen or 50 vlr users

I mean internationals are mostly unpredictable. How many times have we said that PRX or even Heretics last year (not a shade to these teams, just a bit of context) are gonna win something. It's like the dynamics change so much when it's on the international stage.

I mean it's hard to judge really other than the top 3 teams
T1's peak is very high but they barely reach their peak so...

"Mada masterclass incoming"
— Kanyefan when he eventually comes here

They just like to do a little silly :3

It's after EMEA since we don't know their seeding yet

Ah okay
It's like 1st seed vs 2nd seed right?

Is it the same as Madrid last year or different?

Bet

EDg & th dogged sen

It's almost like he was doing pretty well on those games but there was no support other than Tenz. Did nothing but was consistently their best player throughout almost the entire year except for a few games. Surely we know that it's s team game.

They are talking about turning TMV into a chicken nugget lmao

Group 2 💀

What am I reading

https://www.vlr.gg/447308/vct-pacific-stage-1-groups-drawn

Are they doing the thing like last year where if a team from group 1 don't win a certain number of games (iirc it was 3?) then the next teams (5 or 6th depending on how many teams from group 1 didn't manage to reach the quota) from group 2 qualify forward in play-offs?

Zeta division

Tbf now, that group is crazy work

Boom definately looked better than PRX which is a crazy thing to say but true

8

Fair tbf
Most underdog teams get a lot of bandwagons after they get good

They have been getting bandwagons since Champs tbf

Buzz played disgusting today (literally)
But yea
Ggs

It's more Gen.G cannot offer the sort of bag T1 can than they didn't want to. And it's T1. Probably the biggest eSports org in Korea.

Probably not yet compatible with those agents
It's better to play what they are good at than force an agent they have no idea how to play

I mean T1 always expects to win worlds so
Not surprising at all

It's been seven months
Just let it go 💔

Lowkey should be a gap between the lower finals and the grand finals no? I had the same complaints with the Ascension finals too. You have the teams, atleast keep a day gap. For the lower teams, they will be playing 3 days in a row which is kinda crazy and unfair to these teams.
2 weeks gap between the starting stages and not a day gap between the important playoff games.
I get that they want to give advantage to the upper bracket for well being the better teams but I doubt a team which already has the bans in a BO5 needs any more advantage.

💀

Org didn't inform about the reasons but Autumn does have a thing for 6 man rosters

Wait a second
His agent list says he has never played Yoru

Apparantly he also does silly calls like
"Go A" "Go B" "Go C"
At one point according to Meteor, Carpe was talking more to the team during TOs than Autumn

It was but it's been like 2 years
This gotta be some streamer doing a raid or something

Why is the EMEA chat spamming Binod???

Yea you are cooking
I will go to bed

I mean these playoff games barely to to map 5
However if I go to sleep now, I should be able to make it by map 3
