How could I forget s0m going back to co-streaming with his boyfriend FNS, that actually probably is their biggest fear

Chet, FNS is coming back, BLG, Losing sunset 12-5 up against C9, playing Sunset in general, Fracture not being in the map pool, ardiis sage wall on bind. These are the biggest fears for every NRG fan and could give them nightmares or ptsd.

Edit: s0m cove, cgrs/prx with a sub, s0m going back to co-streaming, Shanks being signed as a content creator

Doesn't the whole LEV roster pretty much speak English though? Even if they get rid of C0m and Tex both Sato and kiNgg speak english very well so it makes more sense to keep the roster speaking english, and its a Argentinian org so wouldn't he be learning Spanish not Portuguese?

I feel like the dynamic with both Dante and Keznit isn't really working well, Kru looked better with adverso. Also I think Atom should switch to the assistant coach and then they get a new coach and maybe try and find someone who actually wants to IGL and not keep switching between 2 players like they have been.

F0rsaken-Neon
Jinggg- Omen
Something- Sova
D4v41- Vyse/Cypher
Patmen-Viper

I hate TH because people glaze them as a top EMEA team and I don't think they have been since 2024

Does n4rrate count? I feel like zellsis is more the flex on Sen

The difference is that other esports usually only have one or two of said factors not all of them. Also most of the other esports don't get new maps as often, a meta that takes months to fully figure out just for it to change one week later.

CS: The map pool changes but the lineups remain practically the same and the meta hardly shifts in any meaningful way.

League/Dota: Only a handful of agents are actually played and usually teams know almost exactly what the other team wants to pick before the game even starts and get agent bans which Valorant doesn't have and the meta only shifts when an agent is buffed/nerfed.

OW: OW is a much faster paced games and it doesn't take nearly as much strategy and preparation as a tactical shooter like Valorant or CS.

MR: They play less games than Valorant and take huge breaks too so I don't know why you included MR in this

With CS and other esports its not like the top teams are playing every day a lot of times its what would be considered tier 2 teams in valorant playing and filling in the gaps while the top teams are taking a break for a few days. Other esports have more teams competing which allows for more tournaments and games to be played, but since Valorant doesn't have that you get less games. Not to defend riot but its not riot's job to run every single events/tournament past the ones they host, its the communities, orgs and/or companies job to do that and yet they don't, so don't blame riot for this.

Yoru: Sato, kajaak, Jawgemo/Jemkin

I feel like for NA, SRB would be promoted no matter what just because of the sheer amount of money Shopify has and could invest.

So what you're telling me is that DRG are winning champs. I mean I already knew it but thanks for the confirmation.

If they update the map so its not miserable to play and watch then I'm all for it coming back, but in its current state I hope the map remains in the pits of hell.

Imagine being worse than a guy whose almost 36 years old

Don't forget the 10-2 against MIBR

I mean he's probably still better than itopata and goked but he's down there with them

No boostio to play gekko

I mean I feel like Asuna is the problem with 100T, every roster with him has failed even when the roster was built around him specifically it failed. Like sure he's not a terrible player but eventually you have to realize that there is one common denominator in all of 100T failures and that is Asuna.

Just a week or two ago people were defending this bum acting like his one game top fragging was what he always played like and that the space he makes is actually valuable and not just inting. Like how are you the primary and entry duelist for 100T and have less aces than fucking ange1 and Zellsis in VCT this year.

Also get rid of Asuna, 5 years on one org is way to long for any player

I'm sorry for what 100T has constantly put you through and the fact that you've had to deal with Asuna being on the team for 4 years after his prime.

He's just Chet 2.0

I feel like 100T do that every year until they get a result so atrocious that they are forced to make a change

For banning Bind against 100T unlike the many teams before you

Okay if you had almost any other flag+flair this would be an alright bait/take but being a TH fans and saying this after what we witnessed today and considering TH hasn't done much strat innovation past double duelist is crazy.

Why does ziks only have Cryo play like 3 agents and make the entire team have a messy comp to accommodate that even though Cryo can be more flexible. Also why does it seem like Ziks exclusively prepares bind and hasn't worked on any other map.

I think its more Ziks who needs to step up for 100T to be successful.

C9 is to NRG what Sen is to 100T

And yet NRG almost always manages to lose to C9

NRG should worry about beating C9 first

DRG is winning champs

Can you do Liquid for next week so that Heretics don't make champs

I play stretched on CS2 but native on Valorant because its too much work to do true stretched on Valorant

What do they have to do to miss Champions?

FNC because a lot of fans always bring up the trophies from 2023 and act like that represents their teams current strength and use the trophies as an excuse for any poor performance from FNC. Also there is too much glaze from the fans for Leo even though he hasn't played in a year plus.

No Trexx No Win

Bro might be the goat of VLR

Imagine if Bind had ropes too, he'd actually be unstoppable

Where in my post did I say that RRQ was bad? I said they don't really seem like a team that other teams would be scared of facing. And no that doesn't mean I think RRQ is bad, if they were bad they wouldn't have made Toronto or Champs in the first place.

On bind maybe, on every other map they look terrible

GenG: No one fears this team bro, you just throw 9 rounds and you know they'll choke.
DRX: No reason to fear a team with Termi coaching unless you're between them and getting 5th-6th.
Talon: They are only scary if they lost the previous week
T1: The only one fearing T1 are T1 players when they make a mistake and buzz is on the team
RRQ: Nothing to really say but they just don't come across as a team that would scare other teams
DFM: This team hasn't played any team from the other regions apart from offseason and very early shitter China teams and has never made an international event. This team imposes 0 fear on anyone
PRX: They are the only one teams are actually probably scared to face.

Okay at least C9 don't look terrible but man both 100T and EG look terrible right now

Unironically I think babybay would be better

G2 Icy wasn't even good though, like he has 1 or 2 games where he looked like an above average duelist but the rest of the time he was a borderline tier 2 player

Only ever perform well against bad teams? It feels like as soon as he faces a good team he has either no impact or is just middling. Is he just the best of mid and bad players or is there a different reason.

Why would you ban sunset when you know 100T isn't good at it and instead let 100T best map through. Like even if you aren't good at sunset, neither is 100T so at least and it can't be worse than this bind.

I mean that's because he's always on senti/viper it just kind of comes with the role. Its bad when its your duelist or initiator who are getting a ton of exit frags

No, I just don't want two teams waste so much time that they either lose on time or they only have 15 seconds to get into site every single round. I want FNC or other slow teams to not only play slow on atk and actually get onto a site before 25 seconds once in a while.

DRG winning this easy don't worry
