It's a SA Qualifier, only Latam and Brazil, you want them to play EMEA, NA and ASIA in a South American Qualifier or what?

Neither latam stages nor Brazilian had practice rooms where they could play, the best way was to get NiP in stage.

And the stage was with no audience so it was like a practice room, and Kru was in their practice room so what the fuck is the problem.

Let's wait in Istanbul for NiP to play KRU in a stage, oh wait, forgot NiP can't

Covid case justifies them not playing in stage, how dumb are you to literally not see it? ITS A FUCKING DISEASE.

NiP couldn't played from the office cause they didnt have their office in Argentina.

The same thing happened to latam team in Brazil, they had to play in stage and they had to divide the team between 4 of them while Brazil could play from their own practice rooms all the time.

Stop being delusional kid.

You guys are viewed as victims not cause of the fans, but your casters, players and known figures literally stir the pot then play victim.

Dude, both BR and LATAM fans are extremely racist and toxic towards each other, they are fans, 16yo kids that want some attention, you can't defend neither of them.

KRU had a covid case, you want them to risk everyones safety so they can stomp NiP in LAN?

KRU vs Loud was a close match, but Kru pulled it off.

I might have overreacted, don't take the word "All of BR" seriously, i know there are plenty Brazilians that actually admire Keznit, but most of the "famous" or known people in Val hates on him.

The same caster that said that BR should be a brother region is the same making fun of them.

I know it depends, Lucius and Mitsuu are chill, bit also in BR there are chill casters.

Every BR hates Keznit, and i won't defend LATAM casters, they are literally doing the same against BR which i find fucked up since they are the first to speak up when BR does it.

But yeah, Keznit is hated a lot.

Imagine being a known BR caster, you say XAND will expose the Fraud that Keznit is, then KRU stomps NiP.

Despite that Kru has to play LCQ and flights to your own country, send two of your teams to lower, then you say Dgzin is the chosen to take down Keznit then Keznit, in stage, in brazil drops 37 kills.

You love to see it Leticia Motta

NiesoW the "cheater"?

People shitting on TenZ because he doesnt get 40 kills every map, but thats the reason why this SEN is working out, he can be 3rd in frags and still win.

I am, they as a team have one of the greates stories in Valorant so far, same core for 2 years, pick up Ardiis after G2 and Heretics fucked him and gave him comfort, picked up a "nobody" that people said was shit, qualified for M1 and couldnt go cause of Visa, then have to qualify again, they were gonna play with 2 subs until the day before opening match Shao got his visa, qualify for playoffs with stand in, Suygetsu arrives but not before they are send to the lower, then they make the lower bracket run defeating the both teams that send them to lowers, defeating the actual champs and take down APAC power house.

If you tell me that doesnt bring fans, then nothing will.

If they really wanna stay together there are 3 orgs at the moment willing to take them (Per rumors) and the point was that there are more possibilities of them being apart than together.

You do realize the 4 years deal also allows them to make roster changes? If the team starts to not work they can make changes, they won't get stuck with the same roster 4 years.

And yes, those player will get picked up, but there is a high possibility that they will get separated as well since Orgs will try to poach whoever they can.

Look at M3C, yes they wanna stay together and they are receiving offers as a team, but they are also receiving individual offers cause they need to think about them and if an org makes a good offer they will take it.

So let's kick the best CIS roster, Masters champions because they have no fanbase at all? they are already building a lot as you can see from the players interactions, FPX is a solid org in China (No CN spot at the moment) and their only shot is EU

Bo Hoogland rumours stated CN won't get franchise spot.

If they go back to Asia i guess it would be for the China spot and only EDG roster (maybe Kone) is worth at the moment.

But if it happens, yes NA'VI can pick them up

Almost all the pbe changes go live.

"Almost" being the key word, KRU has always been known for having a rough start, but if we are gonna talk results they beat, not almost, they beat the best BR team and fucked their 2nd best team.

If we are only talking about players, 40%.

But even one player changes a team a lot, we saw it with Keznit with Kru, TenZ with Sentinels, Xeta with C9 and BNJ with NiP.

Split will be played in LCQ

Transitive law doesnt work in esports, also we know OpTic starts slow and then can win the whole tournament.

Not saying that Guild is trash tho, they are inexperienced.

Having 4 teams skip groups only cause they got first seed in their own region is bullshit.

I mean, if M3C qualified it would be different, if Xerxia was first seed it would be different.

Your comment is the same as If my grandmother didnt eat a chainsaw, she wouldnt have died

It might depend on the kind of visa, sometimes you need proof of the event you are going to participate in and/or they need a company sponsor which might only be available after they won.

But, Shao and Suygetsu case in particular takes long because they are russians and the world situation against russians is kinda delicate at the moment

I dont know about any of them, but in my experience FRZ has a lot of experience both in Val and games before, dunno if he wants o is comfortable IGL'ing tho

Cauanzin were 7 kills apart from the topfragger (Xand) and had the less deaths and 17 assists.

Also, if you saw the match you could see how much impact he had.
KRU X NiP was a team diff, everyone in KRU is potentially better than everyone in NiP.

But that doesnt take the fact that Cauanzin had so much impact and has so much to learn by being only 17 years old

Cauanzin over NZR tbh

As far as i know, Riot hasn't revealed M2 Format's so there is a chance Riot learns and dont out 4 teams in playoffs already and we have a more competitive format.

Exactly, it's gonna be good for them, and they are strong, the only way i see them not going out of groups is to be in the group of death

Loud's biggest weakness in M2 was not losing, they were "perfect" so they tought they didnt have any issued, after OpTic lost against them, they read all that mistakes they make and used them to win 3-0.

So Loud's biggest strenght is to lose or to learn more against international teams

Eu had 1 meme team (G2), 1 team with 2 subs and 1 team that shouldnt be there.
NA has OpTic and Guard had a honeymoon period and qualifying directly into playoffs didnt help.

But read again my comment, All of the non qualified teams in NA and EU would probably beat non qualified teams in the other regions, that's what i mean.

They were scrimming against BR team Gamelanders Blue and Dgzin (GL Player) started picking on Mazino and doing fatphobic comments, in consecuence Keznit exploded and call Shaw (GL Coach) CJ in reference to GTA Character, and GL shared keznit's comment on twitter without sharing the fact that they started.

as far as i know copenhagen format hasnt been shown yet, hopefully they changed the 4 1st seed bye cause that is bullshit

You argument doesnt make the other wrong, yes, PRX won against only 1 seed (G2 was not seed 1) but NA and EU teams will get further than the other SEA, Japan, KR and SA regions

KRU made ir fast so casters dont have to pretend Keznit doesnt exist

No, even aspas came ou and said they were good friends and the word keznit used doesnt mean what everyone thinks.

4 LATAM 4 BR Goes to LCQ and top 2 teams goes to Champions. So Latam can have 1, 2 or 3 teams at champs and so can BR

Master 3 Champions and Champions runner up, didnt qualify for Reykjavík and went 2-3 in groups losing to Liquid, Guild and BIG, and are now 1 win away against FPX.

I never said they are bad, but they are struggling.

M3C has been struggling and Acend are only hitting shots at this point, FaZe and 100T are new teams and we still don't know their full potential yet.

One region will have OG London Untied, the other will have Cloud9, FaZe, 100T, XSET, Guard.

Your point doesnt make sense when you compare the worst team of one region with the top team of the other region

That's a yes

This is probably the stupidest thing i have ever heard, you know what that "Gaming gene" is? Is the fact that boys are allowed to play videogames from a young age and women are leaned to do different activities such as play with dolls, tea parties, princess, etc.

We are living in a time where that's changing and it won't take long until more women start playing videogames from such a young ages.

The have Game changers to give opportunity and visibility.

Also, it doesnt matter if C9B is qualified, both team can go trough the open qualifiers, just Like GenG and GenG black.

T1 is a legendary org for Koreans so that was probably the reason since Autumn (Coach, Also Korean) left.

They didnt dropped Xeta, he requested to leave.

If Astralis gets into Valorant (I dont think so) they should pick up Gambit tbh

"From Rookies to Reykjavik, The Guard are headed to Masters"

G2 fan shitting on someone for beating them.

Apparently this two have no prize money.

I looked and neither does Turkey, but Polaris, Dach and Surge have 20k - 25k

It seems strange seeing how much viewers Spain and Turkey pull each stream (Don't know about france but i guess it also pulls viewers)
