Regardless of what happens on Split, gg to LOUD and Optic, sucks that their 3rd encounter is sending one home.

Marved too

accurate. Considering 90% of any and all toxic regional supremacy threads are either NA or EMEA "fans"

its mid in their pool tbh

its because his fanbase

It is really good for the scene tbh, keeps its fresh rather than having the same region/teams constantly dominating, we atleast get to see what teams are made of in their terms of adaptation. Its why teams that stay on top and make it to many international events are considered really good and consistent.

Longevity is key to an esports scene. Valorant atleast can have that if this type of meta shifting continues

Idk man yesterday everyone was pretty wild on Yay.

Bad games happen, even for the best of players. They always bounce back, thats why theyre considered some of the best in the world.

Yeah pretty much. But NA and BR have a few specific bozos that bait to cause drama per usual. Regardless the toxicity from anyone is uncalled for

NA and Brazil dont rlly go at eachother as much as EMEA and NA. Hopefully it doesnt get too bad but who knows, we already have sea laugh threads despite xerxia playing really close games and still being a good team. Vlr is just full of bozos

Meteor doesnt speak japanese, so joxjo translates for the rest of the team in the game. Must be actuslly pretty hard to do that and make your own comms

Cus vlr full of toxic clowns

How could anyone forget that, it changed valorant esports history bro

Actually would be a banger top 8 tbh, and they would atleast be better than M1 where some regions had to play eachother in playoffs

What drug did you take tho?

Isnt these replies me literally disagreeing with him, im fully aware he isnt any better. Never claimed otherwise

Sadly correct

We need justenjoying back

Thats all alot of people want bro. Its just stupidity getting let free tbh

We need nore positive threads and constructive discussion than just "region bad kekw"

Ignore this bozo. His brain can only spit out
"NA bad" and "cry"

People called it out as being toxic then and still do whenever its brought up.

Its just a very vocal toxic minority of users that cause the most shit

Sadly that's how VLR is and as #2 pointed it out, sports in general can get really toxic and theres alotta region supremacists and trolls that spark shit. Nobody actually enjoys international competition they just wanna shit on the losing team, and every regions fanbase is guilty of it. A never ending cycle of toxicity.

I just wish the forums were most constructive discussion about the esport but thats few and far between

Actually the most dogshit eu baiter and now he's gone

Ngl read this while taking a shit at work.

Good read, alotta hopium. Time to wait and see if any of this happens

Why's that even matter tho? I just dont get how ppl can be that much of a loser

They ruin the forums all things considered.
Emea and na just have the majority on the site and are very vocal about it. Its just stupid to me because why not just enioy international val

Every regions got a very local group of supremacist cringelords, embarrassing for actual fans ngl

I dont get why ppl use alts on this site, like bro are you that desperate for upvotes?

Not really, but i expect a 2-1, Seider had an up and down yesterday and FPX easily couldve lost yesterday on 2 of the maps, it was scarily close with Xerxia.

FPX are an amazing team but its safer to say that yeah DRX who are a better team than Xerxia should beat FPX here in a more comfortable way. This could bite me in the ass and it should be a great match either way. But if we're talking numerical odds I'd say like 20% chance

Thats just twitter in general

Yeah I know Korea has 1 slot, and i dont think anyone was gonna be beating DRX. I knew they sent f4q and nuturn. But as stated in #17, i dont consider KR, BR, or LATAM minor regions. And yeah I know the fact that we only see DRX is the fact that they get the only slot KR has. Thats moreso a format problem than anything, my point was only being that thus far nobody has challenged DRX for that no 1 spot. Whereas every other region regardless of spots has had numerous teams be that 1 seed. Not to say they arent competitive because hell, we could easily see a 2nd korean team at champs via east asia lcq.

I think u were just misunderstanding what i meant by mentioning korea

Yea because Thorin is reliable. Totally

No, even with Zellsis and an unretired Shroud, they would be lucky to even make top 6. They just maybe now will avoid being dead last.

no such thing as a fluke team.

W take

unfortunately toxic idiot baiters on this site will continue to cause shit

How does this kid have stars, only bait toxicity

Yessir

Pretty much every major teams fanbase gets like that, not just the Optic guys

I think so, its a great map ngl

he's been wrong before

I meant the literal V1 team, pretty sure they'd know if their teammate was leaving or not

fair point

pretty sure the v1 guys all said fake

incoming kru cinderella run??

or is it too early to call that?

all vlr knows is to hate

don't let the regional supremacists hear that though.

People across every region and fanbase would rather just shit on other teams and regions then mald when their team lose and it becomes a toxic cycle.

Either way yeah Optic will probably bounce back from this loss.

definitely a possibility

100T, EG, FaZe, Guard if they bounce back are the ez top 4
NRG and SR have potential but I don't expect them to
C9 I have little faith in
sentinels taking 8th for sure

Korea has only ever sent 1 other team other than DRX to a masters, and that team doesnt exist anymore. Thats not a diss on korea at all. I'm just saying compared to every other region to this point. Korea is the only one who hasnt sent multiple teams to more than 1 international event.
LATAM until Copenhagen was in that same boat.

a t3 region wouldnt even have a slot in master
0/8 bait

the only regions that would be considered minor rn are OCE, SA, China, and MENA

fnatic have atleast been consistent in making every international except Berlin

fnc rn isn't overhyped, they won emea for a reason, and emea is probably one of the two most competitive regions domestically. I can see them at bare minimum finishing top 6 at copenhagen.
