Actually, their group stage and early playoffs performance used to be good enough for the top 3. They used to finish 5th-6th as a result of choking.

I remember watching that MITH game. They were 12-9 up on map 3 and then proceeded to lose 12-14. That was so heartbreaking as an Indian fan. Then it happened again against Bleed at Ascension last year when they were 10-8 up on map 3 with all the momentum and lost 10-13. Being a fan of these teams really requires a lot of resilience lmao

GE looked really good today, hope they bring this level of play against good teams

iirc skrossi did a lot better than that against geng xD

Because now 100T will probably go on a run and eventually beat geng
ggs pacific

the thing is NRG was already so bad that if FNS and S0m get them to champs they will get a fuck ton of praise and will be seen as the reason why the roster improved and even if things go bad they won't get that much of the blame since it's like they just made the team before split 2 didn't have a lot of time etc.
And it is just really tough to look as bad as they already did

so tl;dr if they do good stonks up massively if they don't stonks mostly unaffected maybe slightly down

Do cite your data sources, my friend

I think we should wait til forsaken plays

hai

use common sense mate, aspas is on top despite playing at the highest level
for soulcas doesnt necessarily mean much

wtf are you saying my friend aspas has been the best player across all valorant esports recently

So let me break it down; your only argument is trophies. While trophies are great and only good teams get to touch them, not winning a trophy does not make a team bad automatically. To win a trophy a lot apart from just a team's skills has to go right.

i think TS and TLN are very close it just comes down to who's better on a particular day

damn brother they must have done something really bad to you for you to hate them that much

It's because hating on GE is the 'socially correct' thing to do. To anyone who says T1 deserve more than GE - GE should have won the series against talon which would've sealed the slot for them. They gave a fight to zeta too. Can you say the same about T1?

Yeah I hope they qualify so they'll get to play prx? and get destroyed which will force them to look at their shit more and try to improve more.

This guy is GOOD

ig his frustration is understandable they should have won this map and it was crucial for qualification scenarios too

Need omen tips guys

hehe yw, i think the 2100 one gets u 2500 vp

look up valorant gift cards on paytm

We need cgrs

Don't worry guys, we just need to win icebox then we can 2-0 dfm HOPIUM COPIUM LETSGO

gj then koreans
then, there are other "super teams" that did not work out like that. Take NRG for example.

I mean ur saying that because they are good now, in the off season geng were getting a lot of shit for not building a good roster. They released k1ng and got lakia people werent happy lmfao

i mean probably lmao super teams on paper rarely work out that way

his igl could be good, if it doesnt work drag blazeking in and make him igl at gunpoint

juicy (duelist)
invy (initiator)
jitboys (smokes/flex)
monyet (smokes)
benkai (igl)
blazeking (6th)

yeah the synergy is looking good, if they keep this up they could contend for going to champs

IMO instead of building a 5 indian roster straight away, they can add indians incrementally. For next year they should get deathmaker probably.

imagine if GE had closed out breeze v/s talon
they also could've beaten zeta but lacked composure (though this would be more farfetched than the talon game)

Anq's stats really look goat level but it's actually easier to achieve that in Indian VCL than u think. Last year, azys and deathmaker had similar stats for split 1.

TMV goes off on every team and it's always fun to watch. love that guy.

Haven't seen any EG matches, what happened to my goat?

Bruh, Rossi had 2 problems - his agent pool and his inconsistency. You can't blame the roster not realizing its potential purely on rossi. The team also had issues getting along which was surely a crucial factor in deciding its potential, was that also rossi's fault? The team lost 2 games that they should have won before rossi joined them in korea, they wouldn't be in the "must-win" situation had that not happened. That wasn't rossi's fault.

Anyways the thing is we wouldn't be having this convo if GE decided to stick with t3xture or get another good duelist, but the fact that they replaced rossi with polvi who hasn't had 1 good series this season is what leads people to write posts like these. Get a better player than rossi -> no one's asking for him to come back. Simple.

I think ppl forget that last year bro had insanely good games too. He wasn't that bad u can still see the stats but he either had very good games or very bad games and that was the bad part.

ngl his util today was actually good
but yes so far he's been playing like a gold player against bronze players, just swinging

Well the point of this post wasn't to get him to play for GE xD
I was just wondering why teams didn't pick him up cus i did remember he was on texture level

So for a while i've been thinking it's unfortunate he didn't get to play this year and I was wondering how good he would do if he does get to play cus I remember he was on a similar level to t3xture before they both joined GE. So, I dug up some stats:
For most of 2022, they both played duelist and had similar stats with bazzi being slightly better. They both were also the best players apart from the drx guys.
Bazzi also had this insane game against DRX https://www.vlr.gg/71632/on-sla2ers-vs-drx-champions-tour-korea-stage-1-challengers-w2/?game=72182&tab=overview
In 2023 their stats were also similar and both were off their main roles (bazzi had flexed a lil before that though)

Seeing how well texture has done makes me wonder if he's the most slept on player rn. He might or might not have been as good as texture is right now but he for sure should have been picked up by someone at least. (maybe his hand injury? had played a role)

They look worse than GE when dep is not fragging
Tell me is this copium hopium or u guys agree?

MAYBE IT WASNT MUCH SITUATIONALLY BUT HE JUST WON 5 STRAIGHT GUNFIGHTS LOVE TO SEE THAT

NOW THAT IS WHAT WE WANT TO SEE

i feel so bad for him, just wanna see a confident yay again

only other person in franchise i've seen whiff kills like that was skrossi

he's losing so many 1v1 duels how does someone even become this washed? wtffff
there has to be some explanation right? The best player in the world cant just get this washed in a year?

Well let's not forget this guy spent a year on the bench just practicing and trying to improve his game

LMFAO idk why but this cracked me up

Also last year their team was much more solid. Losing juicy has hurt them a lot.

In EMEA, KC matches are really fun. In APAC, teams are generally fun to watch. I watch every GE match and then BLD matches get a lot of viewers cus yay, and teams like PRX, GEN, DRX, T1, RRQ, Zeta, TLN, TS are fun to watch in general.
