how is it flukyo? the top team there performed mostly the same in champs, no one's form deviated too much bar nrg

100T got owned by T2 teams (that are probably better than some of the T1 teams)

...boost popularity so more people watch them and their vids and streams, and eventually buy their team skins and merch

he didnt do well 'cause hes good at smokes, he did well 'cause he can aim, he can do that on any agent

skye just died so...

the stream snipers' champion

ethan not being on here is questionable and com's sova is 100% top tier

dam maybe just have someone watch halls

they got beat by xerxia 'cause victor got covid, yay got all his shit stolen and everything outside the tournament that culd have gone wrong did.

if scrims mattered sen would have at least made playoffs lol

yay on chamber wouldnt have worked nearly as well without victor's borderline suicidal entry to take space lol. this year vic's flexibility was also hella important for nrg, bro plays whatever you need him to play, besides apparently breach. crashies was fine during regular season but wasnt that good in internationals, but he wasnt that bad either.

dam vic really bounced back, insane mental

cryo is amazing on defence, utterly incapable of entry on atk. if you just look at this match, reduxx gets INSANE value on atk and entry, or at very least he'll run in and die and get space for his team

they talked,, they were right, 100t overrated cant even beat t1, shouldnt even let them be in t1 at this point

probably everyone that just disagreed with you? and anyone who follows the cn scene.

vic's flex ability is probably third to forsaken then chronicle, he's kinda inconsistent at times but he's also a REALLY valuable player on a team, 2022 optic wouldnt have worked nearly as well without vic playing suicidal space making duelist for yay.

unstable, hence the switch to initiator

that's cap lol, victor can play just about anyone you need him to

no joke phoenix might be an option here

you're asking too much of vlr

low amount of frags but gods dam is they arent all high impact ones. bro's only get kills to win rounds and never at any other point

dam u right, it aint close

sen's haven is 70% huge miss, 10% alright and 20% good

tenz will have to prove he's one of them in the actual season

usually being the key work here. demon1 being able to frag out on any agent with passable util usage is an anomaly helped by the fact they have jawgemo who is also someone that can frag out on any agent and covers raze for demon1

mako in 2023 is still widely considered a VERY consistent and arguably the best controller player lmao tf are you on.

those aggressive tps honestly shouldnt be working a lot of the time, they should be punished and are predictable 'cause he;s just constantly tping to high spots, his smokes are ok but sometimes you see issues like split mid against drx for example sometimes they leave too much space on one side, or it's smoked in the air and then has to fall down instead of just directly on ground level. those are very easy fixes but they were present.

so 5-6th at master and champs doesnt matter now huh

idk if you realize this, but that all time is literally the 2 matches recently

name a japanese team that made it out of groups in an international event this year

you 100% implied that you think people can just fake being trans and nb whenever they want to enter gc lmao

i mean, i doubt prx are trying. might be just testing stuff out while they can. they ran 2 smokes on breeze and mindfreak wasnt either one, breach on breeze was also kinda troll, then there's something on yoru which is new. haven comp for prx idk if they are gonna actually run that or if it was just jing go kill for fun as one last hurrah. sunset idk why tenz was on omen when he was perfectly fine on breach before. both team did a little trolling it seems.

copium

we back

holy shit maybe edg werent bad, maybe SR is just too good. BBL got 13-3 and 13-4ed.

doesnt everyone trash talk?

he had to nerf himself or else he would be too powerful

they are missing their igl and star duelist in one, and playing with a sub. A group with 0 lan experience and no leader vs a group with the most seasoned igl and most hyped duelist jeez i wonder what the result it.

yeah it's almost like a team would suffer if their igl+star duelist is gone

they dont have igl and star duelist, it's like if SR lost mel and flor.

they dont have their igl, that's the issue, they are essentially missing their flor AND mel

officially they thought it was a ping test so they locked random agents for fun, found out it was legit, went with it, won

no lizhi, SR win

just genuine raw talent that the other side can't match + goated util usage when they need it. it's like alfajer destroying nrg. man was winning against double swings. nothing to do against that

kicked out for being a shit person

SR VS C9, C9 has always beaten SR in NA, consistently, but SR beat them this time in the championship and SR coach in his excitement flipped off C9 (not the best reaction ngl, questionable celebration), and riot decided to make it so the coach cant participate in the finals, so SR had to play iwth assistent coach or smth, and got reverse sweeped bt G2 Gozen, and lost pretty soundly in the final 3 maps and kinda looked mentally boomed as the maps went on. A lot of people believed that SR would have benefitted greatly from having the actual coach there to help them in the timeouts. Is it cope? a bit yea. Would they have won? hard to say, probably not, but the score would have been closer imo.

edg 2-1 liquid surely

Aint no way it's edg vs t1 again

fuck it sr 3-2 BBL

yay and marved, kangkang too
