bbl were trash, fpx had a bad day. (not to discredit gambit i honesly hope they make champs or masters 3 at least)

not even a tsm fan but i hope they come back and are good

for 11, have u seen ontheway

why are so many brazilian names changed to 3 letters? like

quick -> qck
gtnzin -> gtn
nozwerr -> nzr
fznnn -> fzn
there is also ntk, fra, frz, bld, etc.

enigma said he was developing pick'ems and they should be out before iceland starts

devin, swens, noodle, grim, flow, ethos, noted, lowlander

zywoo, s1mple, dev1ce all play the same role. u would take zywoo or s1mple over dev1ce in a heartbeat, astralis had much better supporting cast than s1mple or zywoo ever had. gtn and mwzera is a 1 for 1 swap.

fpx looked horrible against liquid and gambit the second time, nothing like normal as well

who do u think vks would go for then?

slots may change after we see the first international event

tweets from 100t, envy, sentinels, c9b players

yes, we know that from the tourneys, but high level teams have been getting destroyed by abx in scrims, even though we know that gambit is good, scrim results dont always translate is what im saying here. I dont know if u are trying to judge v1 from this, or are pointing out that we should watch out for gambit

acend, g2, heretics, liquid nivera is leaked
for acend, cned is rumored to leave, and a zeek and kolda swap to g2
for g2, the zeek and kolda swap, then avova and nukkye from heretics, and they keep mixwell and pyth
for heretics, avova and nukkye are gone to g2, and they keep lowel, bring in monsteerr, who played with magnum, al0rante, who was on volvopeek, and ardiis and patitek from g2

thats because why would u leave cs at the top?
some people stopped enjoying cs and left, like nitr0 and ethan, while others saw an opportunity in valorant that they havent seen in cs. cs players can easily get to high ranks because the shooting mechanics are very similar, no other reason. being good in ranked =/= being good in pro play

1. there's another thread
2. nukkye talked about getting destroyed by gambit too
3. we know scrim teams like andbox in na too

would u pass the opportunity to get the best player in your region, arguably the world?

valorant and cs are different games. pros that came from cs have transitioned their game from csgo to valorant, well most have. look at t1 they are great csgo players, but cant get it to work out together in valorant.

rooting for nuturn, one of the best matches we see this round, second to fnc/kru vs sen

what about wemade fox

where have u seen him play raze and reyna? ranked, scrims, 10mans, on stream, or what?

u have probably seen aspas, the others from pain and vorax have been underperforming so u wont see them in the big tourneys

wouldnt work well for gl, also havan need igl, i just saw that heat has only ever played jett in matches

mwzera gtn swap = vikings unstoppable (unlikely however)

streamsniper xd

on the announcement of nature joining geng, people are asking what role he'll play, and 1 guy said he will igl and play sentinel, which is right.
here is what it says on his stream

turks first, now gambit...

nt renegades

i see what u did here

in NA, it starts in the morning and runs through the day so it works.

and he speaks english

(still an unrealistic idea tho)

wtf bro

english u mean?

probably wanted to retire for a while, but with VS dominating, it wasnt realistic to retire

i think u mean this team: https://www.vlr.gg/team/1331/bearclaw-gaming

they were signed to rio company but some players were released yesterday

sup baitlord

theScore Esports

they dont, but in these circumstances where it is pro team vs pro team, it would help

there's flaws in bind with no mid, haven has 3 sites and so many areas to control, and then there's split which has really nice strats u can do with the way its designed with sort of tight areas that determine so much to the map, but it can also make it feel horrible to play. a lot of people dislike icebox because it's not a very good map for people with average or below average aim. ascent is cool, but u could also say it has areas like split and an aim heavy map like icebox

there's this entire thread
