I think NA loses this bracket unlucky I guess

You'd think the edater bundle would fund them for another decade

Actually the most fun year of Valorant, weekly games and something cool to look forward to each weekend. 100T cope but I hate not being able to see my team play until April.

Wow I actually never heard about this at the time

I still think he's a great raze, but he went against 2 of the toughest teams in America's, I think they would've made it out of any other group tbf.

Edit: great raze but didn't show up which is just unlucky, I also think he needs to be a vandal player I think his aim on vandal is too good

He's really instilled confidence in the team actually crazy how much better the team looked in the fundamentals today

You don't understand the Aspas revenge arc bro

The team genuinely looked so much better than ever before today, I was sweating during the Astra Cryo pick but they really showed up.

100T look better than expected

Lev looks worse than expected

SEN v 100T and LOUD v LEV are gonna be bangers

HERE!

Intern getting fired as we speak

Average VCT moment

Nah he's back. People can cope but those shots were super clean.

NOOOOOO

As I mentioned in the earlier post GG.BET (I think this is what its called) is the site that I used, once or twice for small bets, they also have promos for first time better, you also have to upload a photo of a government issued ID to show you are of legal age to gamble in your country. This is not advice, gamble responsibly, only bet what you can afford to lose

Redbull your going against teams that have already been put together and have been praccing vs team thats been together a few weeks with a sub igl. Exact same scenario for LxT, as bad as they played we shouldn't put them in any category, same with any team who've done an off season event. Kickoff is what really matters so for team standings that's all that matters to me. People like putting NRG in the top even though they've been getting smacked in scrims, same energy should be put to the off season events imo. This isn't 100T cope its just excitement for some good valorant (hopefully).

When you go into an upcoming match there should be links to 2 or 3 sites depending on the game that you can bet with, ex. GG,BET

Off season results aside I think both 100T and FUR are being criminally underrated in terms of winning odds. Until kickoff is over I can't give an honest opinion of who I think is the better team, way too many team changes + meta changes. I'm just excited to watch some good valorant again!

I think the majority of them have to be right?

This is a fair and valid opinion, I'm glad there are people willing to have an actual discussion 😂

Edit: following up on this, I heard rumors (I have no idea how true they are if even) that they were getting rid of effys? Or at least trialing some coaches, maybe had something to do with the lack of innovation

C9 fan!

I should be locked up

So true king

1337 there's probably a 10% chance they did, but the university definitely did, there are scholarships on the line they gotta put that work in

Probably not, the university definitely did, but the points still stands that this team has played hella games how they play is so easily accessible in the current meta 🤷‍♀️

Your opinion is valid as is mine

Genuinely not hating, great team idrc what other people are saying 99% of these fourm weirdos would get smoked by anyone on this team

But its kinda logical for SR to lose? They just played hella matches, I didn't expect them to lose in 2:0 fashion but when you just come out of 2 tourneys with no crazy big patches or meta changes your whole playbook is there to see, it's not like the teams they were playing against weren't doing some anti-strat. Sucks though I like SR...

Streets is saying Mibr is winning it all

The cope in this thread by OP is insane 😭😭

Return of a 🐐

He's a LANimal though he single handedly carried thieves over their first win against Fnatic, his raze and Jett entry was unmatched and switching them was their downfall post Champs

Oh I never heard any news about the Fnatic affiliate team! I'll check it out!

WAIT! This is genuis no? Literally pulling a EG 2023 by having 2 rosters of potential subs but also running scrims against eachother to replicate other teams starts to anti strat will be such a big help. I really hope to see an NA organization follow suit (ERM 100T COPE). No need to for a label change to merge the rosters and orgs (MxS) and allowing the use of facilities and staff but salaries management are being covered by each organization separately. (If I'm undertanding this all correctly).

Yeah fr, this hits so many teams so hard, we're gonna be seeing a lot of fade sova

L-iquid

100T will suprise and be a top 3 possibly top 2 contender. For less than 2 weeks practice I think each player looks better on their role individually.

For like 2-3 weeks prac after coming back from the winter break with the addition of boostio they showed up for sure. People not realizing OXG and C9 been together and praccing for ages.

Hot take but, I think the team will do miles better than last year, I think Boostio and Zikz is a good mix especially with Mikes (Mikes himself stating last year that their attack side was horrible, having Zikz and Boostio will help them, kinda back to the Sgares Mikes era). Eeiu is better than Derrek although Derrek is great he was more of a one trick and having someone as flexible as Eeiu will greatly help them, new map changes, new stuff in and out of rotation as well as new agent(s) won't stop him from being comfortable like we seen with Derrek. Although I think we can all admit that Boostio is a newer IGL and isn't seasoned enough to gurantee an immediate fix within the team, he has a great resume and I'm expecting big things from him.

When it comes to the others on the roster, I think bang is still a top controller he really shined last year especially in clutch rate, not to mention can play every controller very well. Cryo is a top 5 Jett, possible top 3 this season with the right coaching. Everyone loves to hate on Asuna but people forget that he was in everybodys top 10 if not 5 when he was on duelist and even coming into the flex position showed great potential, people rag on him for bringing down the team and I see that in his game play for sure, but I'm expecting him to be more comfortable this season and a more refined flex, he's mechanically gifted, I think he needs the right leader to show that again (previously steel). I'm hoping boostio can put these pieces together in game.

TLDR; Top 4-5 (possible chance for a top 3 or even Madrid but this is if everything goes their way and other powerhouses stumble)

What! I did not expect this!!!! Please let me know if this was ever leaked???? I've been waiting for the IGL announcement for so long!!! Why would EG drop him!?!??

Just do it already

No nade never said that, nade was saying on his stream they've only been scrimming for 2 weeks. Nature is confirmed stand in and its a very public and nearly confirmed rumor that they want Boostio but can't get him because EG is a horrid org. It's not a mickey mouse. Let me huff my cope though.

I think its just being passive at the wrong times, and confident randomly, at so many points in their games they were just dry peeking. On lotus against DRX Asuna just peeked without his gun out costing them a rifle and possibly the round if eeiu and bang didn't play it correctly. I'm hoping the double coach plus some more off season time (maybe tourneys) will lead to the most reformed version of the squad. All the players are very talented but not playing as a cohesive unit just yet.

I would've liked to see them beat DRX or at least bring it to a third map but it just sucks that they lose momentum and just can't bring it back.

Roster on paper is solid for sure but nobody's on their A game.

Chalking it up to mickey mouse tourney + not the igl they want + a couple weeks of scrims (which I think is cap but it's according to Nadeshot so)

EG keeping boostio in contract jail, also Zicks and Mikes is a good coaching duo imo

Yeah

You are coping so hard it's crazy 😭😭😭😭

Yikes, NA VLR isn't awake you have time to delete this

Ethan and boostio to thieves

They aren't
