Without cases is just pointless economically for Riot because people would buy skins from each other instead of from Riot

League has over a decade of history, it’s much easier to create narratives, give it time. Also another factor is that Valorant it’s easier to understand for an outsider so attracting new players is easier

But yeah LOL is insanely big, we are not anywhere close as of now

I’ve argued this before but that has nothing to do with franchising tho

I think it has the potential to be because it’s more global. Regions are a lot more even and it feels like it’s stronger in more countries

That’s exactly his point, so many tournament organizers can do what they do because of gambling sponsors and money

Aspas missed a bunch of events brother xD

He also had hoody as signed as of yesterday and he just got signed to Fokus so who tf knows xD

Idk about underrated because they're generally being placed top4 EMEA in most people's rankings which is where I also think they should be. But yes I have high hopes for them, the firepower is insane and I'm excited about the Saadhack + Engh duo

yes he is, I was asking for him to get picked up
The thing is tho, the firepower is not where he will shine, I'd say he has average tier 1 firepower. The strength is the comms and the flexibility with the roles. Enghh knows what he's doing so we'll see

marteen duelist

Maybe, but it’s not the same as NRG at all

No he said the peak viewership was 9.1M

potter would have cned playing brimstone

as long as he's off duelist

She's too busy preparing for the game against Geng tomorrow

Relyks?

Fuck no, just of off player base alone that statement doesn't make any sense

Depends on the sport I suppose, but no, it's not anywhere close to Messi or Mj's levels. 90% of the planet know who Messi or Ronaldo are, I don't imagine Faker's level being above 20%

So are many sports nowadays too tbh

It's probably technically correct but the word "athlete" feels wrong

They already said 90% of this years champs viewership was Chinese

Technically it has without counting China

The Chinese numbers must be fucking crazy

Probably have to wait for the official numbers but that shit must have been fucking crazy counting all platforms

This is what we have as of now

Genuine question, how does a game like Fn compare to those games mechanically? Without having played either much Fn looks harder to the eye

not anytime soon at least

You're def confusing him with someone else, maybe thunking of some of the old Swedish GUILD players

taught faker everything he knows

shit's too easy

Rekkles clutches up for EMEA

I was about to say koldamenta or some other random name but atp just gotta bow down to the goat

holy fuck

Rekkles is this you?

he plays lol in the mornings and val in the afternoons

He's been ahead of Ibai all of worlds but today, I think it's because of the schedule

According to vlr they didn’t change coaches. And no my point is more like they never actually played good Valorant, before or after Shanghai. Relied a lot on individualities but the amount of mistakes was through the roof and it just didn’t look sustainable

Gigabin farms

If we’re being fair they didn’t even play very well at stage 2 gameplay wise. It didn’t look sustainable

I mean technically speaking, if you are racist then you probably consider yourself lucky you were born where you were born.

Not sure if that’s how it works tho xD

I’m so confused, are the academy player’s names actually Potter and Toast?

Why

I believe both Boo and MiniBoo do

I don't like mortadella

KC changed a player, so not the same roster. I'm talking about this https://www.vlr.gg/173223/team-heretics-vs-karmine-corp-champions-tour-2023-emea-league-w1/?game=117189&tab=overview

He was not on French KC

Last year they had 3 duelists, they'll be fine

No Ha-jun and Na Ha-jun is crazy

It’s Greek philosophy

Don't 100T have 1 of those too

Brother xD
