About damn time

my pickems had NAVI due to the NRG/Optic slow start curse, but i think i might end up regretting picking against them, but its still only 1 map in.

NRG's worst map, I'll take this outcome

I'll take it on their worst map

boostio is a lanimal

DRX, PRX,

wasnt as clean as I hoped but I'll take it

I took 3 years of classes so I'm good

lower bracket run incoming

this

ascension teams get 2 full years in the franchise league, but then get relegated back and have to re-earn their way again into the league

lil bro neither of them playin in this

look at the vlr news, its mainly EMEA, then Americas, Pacific definitely doesnt get as much news posts as the other 2, so that alone kinda makes your argument fall apart.

it is fate

northwood michigan pride

not all but alot of eu baiters or bandwagon clowns have the FNC flair. the FNC fanbase just across esports doesn't have the best type of individuals.

Its the same thing with SEN if you ask me.

no, which is wild to think about despite MENA counting north africa

part of an academy team so that settles that, just gotta find time between scrims and tourneys

they will watch

all i can say is flag and flair

crashies and shao are pretty equal in the context of initiators despite them having switched roles recently on some maps.

the other 2 i'll agree with

0/8

its been 3 of 8 weeks bro

yeah but 2022 NAVI was just as bad with that

steels literally known for his entire calling and strats is poke and prod default until a 30 second left hit, literal 2022 NAVI or 2023 KC on crack

atleast they have an IGL now ig?

Honestly I dont care for who represents the league in Tokyo other than the 3 best teams, its only been 3 weeks into the season so alot can still change across the board other than maybe LOUD being #1 and KRU/EG being 9/10. Some teams look great one week, bad another. Only thing that matters is the top 6 for playoffs.

That being said
LOUD, LEV, NRG for Tokyo
(sorry furia)

cus regional arguing regardless of who it is is omnipresent here
BR v LATAM
NA v BR
BR v EMEA
NA v EMEA
APAC v APAC
EU v CIS

alot of it is needless dogshit banter across the board

nrg slow start

I feel XMS would be the next best option, him or Nivera

sick format, seems like itll work well for apac too
(Ik americas wont get that because we are only 4 regions compared to europe and asias dozen or so)

watched every now and then around the time post reykjavik 2021, only started following consistently around champs 2021 and onward

Neon or Raze best 2 options for duelist on lotus

navi and lotus man

maybe some people just watch VCT regardless of region? I've watched games from both Pacific and EMEA if theyre on and I'm not busy

6th worst rated player in americas as of week 2

na challengers everyone else plays for 2nd no?

A return to normalcy

NRG Is gonna bounce back, just a slow start and a bad showing against a really good team in Leviatan. Are teams like SEN/100T/FUR also competing for that 3rd slot yea so it can go either way really

High Plat

Thats disrespectful to golds ngl cus those are bronze takes

Honestly agree

then lets ask nobody

i can't believe it

0/8

NRG is a lock for tokyo

good point

roles and strats were mid at best recently, something had to change.

He'll find another roster for sure he's still a really solid T2 IGL

boaster lower than both Saadhaak and FNS, just because he won the most recent title doesnt mean he's the best IGL automatically

ANGE1, Kingg, Benkai > Koldamenta, this is a braindead take off one game.

disappointing maybe, but they're still a good roster, should do better in split 2
