Months ago in a Riot post, they said that they're creating a Initiator that can compete against Sova and a Duelist that can compete against Jett, same with Sage.

What we know about the new agent:

• She is from Philippines
• She is a radiant with lightning powers
• Is a duelist
• She is the 19th Valorant Protocol Agent
• She is Jett's rival in terms of speed and agility
• Chamber who recruited her
• Probably faster than Jett

Second Gen. of First Class:

NA: Yay (Jett)
EU: Zeek (KAY/O)
BR: Sacy (Sova)
LATAM: Keznit (Raze)
CIS: nAts (Viper)
TR: (?)
JPN: (?)
KR: Buzz
SEA: Patiphan

Mano pelo amor de deus cala a boca. É fato que a VK jogou muito bem e poderia facilmente ter vencido contra a Acend sem o exploit, mas simplesmente ignorar a campanha dos caras e ficar desmerecendo eles é completamente sem noção. Foram melhores que vários e mereceram a vitória, agora é questão do Brasil ralar ano que vem e ser o próximo, sem desmerecer ninguém no caminho.

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk now go back to their stream

NA, SEA and KRU def did better than TR imo

EMEA > NA > LAS=KR ≥ BR=SEA > JP > LAN = MENA = SA = OCE

Yes, that's one of the things League of Legends viewers complain about the Asian/EMEA/NA crowd: they don't know how to root properly. Every time we had LAN international championships in Brazil/LATAM in general with fans, what they most praised was how they support any team in the game. We will applaud anyone there, we will cheer for any move. If some people start to watch ANY of the international LAN events that happened here on South America, they'll know how a REAL crowd will cheer for the teams in stage. When we lose? applaud. When we win? Oh boy, you will feel the arena shaking.

nah, I think they're like the south americans from APAC. Their style (seeing from a viewer that watch mostly NA/EMEA/BR/KR regions) seems like a BR stylish with a chaotic type o gameplay but not relying on aim too much, but more on rotations. X10C did that, TS did that and FS tried to do. Brazil and LATAM are regions that rely on aim and high-tempo/momentum, SEA looks like a high-tempo region but based on fast map rotations and lots of fake rotations.

I saw Yugure saying a month ago in this thread that there was no "weak region" anymore, and that Champions would be amazing because of that. I agree with that comment, and I'm saying again: another region outside NA/EMEA will be crowned as the new major champion in the next year. All the regions has shown improvement when comparing to Iceland and Berlin. 2022 and beyond are looking really great for the Valorant scene.

Probably the Masters turns to 24 teams, LATAM with +1 slot and India, China, Oceania, MENA and Turkey receiving 1 or more direct slots to international events.

SA u mean South America or South Asia? bcs in mobile games, Brazil is one of the biggest regions in almost every mobile game. Garena Free Fire, League of Legends: Wild Rift, in any of them BR are the best western region.

ratio + TSM fan

Imagine if the Cypher camera was actually lower and that victory from VK knocked Acend to lowers, then in lowers X10C smash Acend and the hole tournament changes. Imagine if Furia actually have the mentality to close the games against Sentinels, and then Sentinels would have to play against KRU and then be eliminated. Imagine if Vikings calm down and then close the series against Gambit, going as seed 1 from group C and playing against X10. Imagine if KRU calm down and goes to the finals. So many alternative realities.

esquece essa porra aí, só torce pra KRU ou a Gambit amassarem a Acend, é isso.

Maybe you forgot that next year we're going to have MORE REGIONS

Riot don't want to decrease the number of slots from any region. The logic it's to give one more slot to LATAM and BR keeps the same too.

Basicamente o que eu respondi pra um grego também. Eles passaram o ano todo falando que o cenário sul-americano era um lixo, que nossa região não prestava. Agora que a KRU e os times brasileiros mostraram melhora significativa, eles querem entrar no barco do hype fingindo que sempre acreditaram em nós. Pagamos de otários o ano inteiro pra agora fingirem que nada aconteceu. Meu pau mole pra eles.

Yeah I know, I just don't remember the new name from their team.

I'm sure that Leviathan/6K/9Z would bang any other team just like KRU. You guys sleeped on the South American scene. Saadhak and Sacy said in PlatChat from REYKJAVIK that KRU was one of the best teams in the world, and that one day, they would shock everybody. Now with VK almost winning twice against Acend, Furia almost beating KRU and Sentinels, Team Vikings almost winning against Gambit and KRU eliminating the Reykjavik finalists, everyone's realises that the South American scene isn't a "shit region".

They didn't bootcamped there tho, they scrimmed from the stages in Mexico in LATAM Finals for Reykjavik if i'm not wrong. The only teams that NA teams have scrimmed a lot outside NA region was LATAM North teams, and they're really bad if u compare with LATAM South teams (that's why only KRU and Australs managed to win, they're from LATAM South, who scrim mostly with BR teams).

Australs and MAYBE 6K are the only teams outside KRU that can compete against the BR teams.

Furia almost won against KRU and SEN tho, VK almost won against KRU in Masters 3 too, it's really hard to know.

LATAM and BR always train together. KRU and Australs didn't go to a single bootcamp outside LATAM/BR region, they've always trying to keep evolving together with us. And then some smart guy calls BR a "trash region", automatically jking about KRU and LATAM SOUTH too, then KRU after the BR scandal in Champs starts to move in order to revenge the BR teams who always train together with them. And now, they're semifinalists, just training in BR region.

Nop, that is a spanish meme, probably one of the latin american spanish

I forgot they're already 18 lol

true, vlr.gg will now understand who are the kids that send death threats against other pro players

Aspas is a Reyna main prodigy, it's like Heat but instead of Jett, a Reyna god. His aim is insane, here in Brazil, some pro players like Sacy thought he was a cheater, but he proved in LAN already that he's really good. The best duelists in Brazil by agent are:

Jett - Heat (17years old)
Reyna - Aspas (17years old)
Raze - Mwzera (20years old)
Phoenix - Murizzz (22years old)
Yoru - GTN/Mwzera (yes, Mw played Yoru in some matches, but didn't work the way they wanted).

Noyn dificilmente erra, praticamente todas as notícias que ele traz se confirma. O Mw indo pra VK ele trouxe aqui antes kkkkkkkkkk

Double Hang Loose de Pé pro Zombs, em breve...

I would put Khalil instead of JhoW

Saadhak as sentinel/IGL
Sacy as Sova
Heat as primary Jett/duelist
Mw as flex/second duelist
Khalil as flex/controller

NiP will have a superteam with Aspas, he have the mechanics from Heat and the aim from Mwzera, but instead of OTP Jett, he plays Reyna (and he's 18years old btw). Most of the super stars from Brazil are young (different from most regions where washed CS players are going).

Yeah, that's one thing that the CS pro's would help a lot.

bro I'm so sad for the eliminated teams. Things could be other way if Furia and Vikings have the mentality to close the games against Sentinels and Gambit, if JhoW didn't used the exploit on Breeze, if VS leaved Lakia to play... Fuck I'm so sad. Congrats to the SEA teams tho, they're looking really more stronger than in Berlin/Reykjavik.

Jonn certainly, he can be what VKS need. His style fits more than Mw's style.

Actually the Champions results was way better than the other internationals. VK looked good, Furia looked good and VKS too. The real problem it's what you've said: the teams on Brazil are made by groups of friends who came from small FPS, just look at Gamelanders as an example, they're really good friends, but now the team are losing everything and nobody want to change the members, just keep trying to adapt their style. NiP coming to Brazil will help a lot with this, bcs their objective is to build a superteam, so this teams who are made by friends will crumble or will be forced to make a decision: change the roster or be disbanded.

-Call a region shit
-Be eliminated by a team who trains mostly with the "shit region"

lmao it'll be really funny to see, but I'm sad bcs I really wanted to see C9B or NV on playoffs too.

o famoso duar bala

BR:
Heat
Mwzera
Sacy
Saadhak
Khalil

Group A: NV and VK
Group B: cheering for KRU, but probably SEN and TL
Group C: GMB and VKS
Group D: FNC and VS

NV 2-0 ACE
VKS 2-0 TS
SEN 2-1 KRU
VK 2-0 X10

(nxt round)

VK 2-1 ACE (for the third time, but now without exploits lmao)
VS 2-1 C9B (I'm really sad for Vanity, but I think VS will win this time)

(nxt round)

SEED 1: GMB, TL, FNC and NV
SEED 2: VKS, VK, SEN and VS

probably like League of Legends, a lot of regional leagues and the champions will be at international stage.

Duelist: Derke, TenZ and Heat
Initiator: Sacy, Stax and Doma
Controller: Mako, Link and Nivera
Sentinel: Saadhak, Dispenser and Murizzz

yeah, it could, but the thing is the money invested, Riot probably don't want to mix things between LATAM and BR, just like some sources were saying that EMEA will have regional leagues to give more direct slots to other regions, BR and LATAM will probably continue to be divided.

NV 2-0 ACE
VK 2-0 X10
VKS 2-0 TS
SEN 2-1 KRU
C9 2-1 VS

And I don't know if u guys know this, but... just the Brazil territory is already bigger than ALL of the European continent, so bringing all the Latin American Continent together would be a mess.

It's really hard to do this. The reason it's bcs LATAM North will compete alone, while LATAM South will compete against BR teams, that's one reason for just KRU and Austrauls fight against BR teams toe-to-toe in LCQ/Masters/Champs, it's bcs they are training together, while the LATAM North just scrims some tier 2/3 NA teams (and they already said that they're REALLY bad).

sad
