1. Who's gonna win champs
2. what college should i go to
3. you fw dairy queen?

valorant 2, all abilities are able to get kills, buying guns is throwing now.

experienced T1 players are much safer options than T2, but also have less potential

you are right but i don’t think you have the right reasoning.

If SEN lose to 2G, and EG beat LOUD, then them 2 and the loser of KRU v 100T will be tied at 3-2. if it’s 100T in this tie, then SEN will get second seed since they beat both 100T and EG, and 100T will be third since they beat EG.
However, if KRU loses, then since KRU beat SEN, SEN beat EG, and EG beat KRU, it will come down to map wins, which EG will be 6 - 4 or 6 - 5 after beating LOUD, and SEN and KRU will be 6 - 6 or 7 - 6 after losing. So KRU and SEN just have to win a map to secure top 3. If both of them get 2-0’d, EG will get second, and then it will come down to round differential for the third seed.

Thanks for the help, it’s already updated :)

i believe when there’s a tie with 3 or more teams, whichever team has the best record against the other teams in the tie would decide which one is placed higher, then a further tie would take map record into account.

so if this scenario happens, zeta, talon, t1 and rrq would all be 3-2 overall, but rrq would have beaten the other 3 teams, so they are the top spot

hell even third place often has problems too

REMINDER: First seed of each group gets straight to upper semi finals matches, which winning will qualify for Toronto, losing this match will require two wins in a row to qualify. Second and third seeds will be in quarter finals, and will be a 2-0 or 3-1 run away from Toronto. Fourth seed teams will start in the Lower Bracket, and will need to win 3 matches in a row to make it to Toronto

yea, it was so sad to see johnqt booth clip farm lincoln in 1865, that was truly the beginning of his downfall

sen is kinda overrated by a lot of people, but they are also overlooked by a lot of others. they have the potential to be at least top 4 itw, but so many here deny that entirely

and edg only wins 11 rounds total in these next two maps, TEC will be #1 seed

https://www.vlr.gg/232895/the-guard-vs-m80-champions-tour-2023-americas-ascension-gf/?game=134594
3 players, not 2

excluding an entire group of people is like racism, and racism is banned, mods give elysxxm a 300 minute cooldown

well last year the 2nd and 3rd seeds would play a single elimination match, which are always stupid when youre trying to find the top 2 or 3 teams. like Navi last year could have been the second best team in emea, but they were constantly put against heretics in a single elimination and never got to an event

it should be h2h, so blg is top

eg for g2

if their current roster is popping off then why would they make changes? they might keep him as a sub ig but i don’t think we will see him on the starting roster of fnc again

i think fnc might just drop leo. i could see him ending up at another emea team like navi or smth

sentinels with no sentinel

diamond armor, full set

because they lost to drx and team liquid, who had much lower ratings than sen, they went down like 150 points, while nrg and lev are still riding off of their peaks

also didn’t the game timer just skip from over 4 seconds to like 3.8

wait wtf happened? 4 player save?

breeze genuinely needs a whole rework before adding it back, and at that point just make a new map

:thumbsup:

in ranked i’d say it’s the exact opposite

there is practically no difference in results between a good igl and a great igl

actual hot takes:
besides g2, americas has gone down in skill
mibr, liquid, and boom are more likely to win toronto than any chinese team
there is practically no difference between a good igl and a great igl

masters cairo
masters singapore
champs nyc

NRG
-FNS cause hes likely retiring
-Ethan unless he improves
Keep S0m, mada, and brawk
+Zellsis/paincakes for senti/flex
+Rossy for init/flex + igl

yea and orgs dont just look at one game and say "yea that guy is ass." if he continues to pop off like this in t2 then hes gonna get signed. EG swapped out their most experienced player for a complete rookie and won champs, anyone has a chance.

i doubt every t1 org would forbid taking a chance on him just cause of one game almost a year ago against the best team in the league at the time in an environment completely new to him where he had barely any time to practice with his team before hand

a lot of success in pacific over multiple years, multiple top 3 international appearances, it makes sense to me for them to be over teams that have only had major success in a single year

and when was the last time an emea team won champs

if he keeps this level of play or even improves over the time before he’s 18 he’s gonna win champs

this is how you know you’re washed

what do you think of the other bored guy’s ama

what do you think of the other bored guy’s ama

yea. he’s silver now

i thought you wanted to dance by tyler, the creator

i think i speak for everyone when i say you need to be put in an asylum

sen is the only bangkok team to not make a change despite looking like the worst one there

i would join but my work schedule goes over every premier session

who?

for aiming at the floor yea

yes, a lot better than last year

free my boy cryo

1.5*

yea silver esports loses here

sen -tenz
ik he retired which is great for him, but sen just doesn’t feel the same without him
also eg staying together would have been great
