she sounds British thats tuff

at least not immediately. i still see him being top 5 in emea with time

its their first time in playoffs. cant really do worse than C9

yeah but if second seed loses they would be dodging them both.

its management that accepts who gets dropped btw.

def have a chance since all they need is 1 win. as long as they dodge TH/FNC i see them making it

sentinels is a bit different since 99% of their fanbase is from valorant and they rely upon it.

FNC, KC, TH etc have been building their fanbases through multiple esports. FNC could revamp their roster and their numbers would still be the same

they are already guaranteed playoffs. they are now fighting for seeding

i want KC to win. need them to get as many champs points as possible. would be crazy if we had 2 french teams at champs

not every player has to be marketable.

also emea fans are tied more to orgs than players compared to NA.

nope we are so back

KK aint even the best duelist in his own region anymore. all those stupid speeches bro is cooked

one of the 3 were def getting benched or bonkar wanted to make a signing and got blocked.

also management is quite ignorant of the current situation. they made a long ahh tweet saying this is the only time "we can make changes" seeing as everything worked out before the season started

they didnt. FNS talked about it being a last second thing. both him and s0m anted to wait the year out.

also FNS did take NRG to 3 internationals and made them the most money. donnt really blame them

saw all those fan girls on twitter hyping KK like he was the second coming of aspas. shit made me sick

mind you this is the same management that dropped marved after 1 split and benched demon1 last year. dont think its just FNS's fault

ong

i still think the NRG management have no clue whatsoever. obs issues persists but no player said anything about bonkar making me think that management just fucked shit up.

or fns, ethan and s0m couldnt drop their egos and listen to a coach that was fcking wanted by FNC.

The fact that people think FNS is the one benching coaches considering this is the same management that got rid of marved, benched demon1 and decided to bring back som+fns in stage 2 last year.

had my hands in my face seeing TH choke for a second time

obv but they never looked this bad under bonkar. also this opens up for bonkar to be reinstated as HC which i would rather have.

hate watching is a skill

been hate watching this stupid nerd with his sniper celebration since 2023.

did we expect anything different tho? comps, timeouts and map picks looked mid.

thats insane cant lie. actually incompetent organizers

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

or ban second duelist and deryeon on main duelist.

no but BLG and EDG are fighting for the last spot for toronto.

Are u sure?

patrickwho had a stinker

i understand their point but this is balance as it gets. we might see fade/skye come back to lotus or even open up for more double controllers.

the meta currently is double initiator and util dump is quite common to the point where teams have sacrificed info related agents (sova, fade and skye) to tejo and breach combo.

"Any initiator is with recharge ability is better" is just wrong. You're not gonna replace tejo with kayo are you? certain initiators in the game are used differently and tejo doesnt need to be used on every map.

sova and kayo wont replace him on maps such as lotus and fracture which makes initiators more "balanced" but u might not see a tejo on ascent or abyss.

also the problem that valorant has is too much utility. the fact that you have more than enough util to default, hit a site and then play post plant results in an unhealthy game. tejo is a prime example of it. You have to be SMART with your util and not throw it out as you please just cuz you know u will get it back. thats what the devs are literally saying.

tejo is still decent and does provide value that other initiators wont bring and hes now been nerfed to the point where other initiators are a better pick on certain maps. that is balance

what initiator can provide the same value that tejo brings?

also you still have 2 nades. the only thing this will affect is post plant if your attacking

how is it brainless if hes too op? mind u he still has the best drone in the game and great util.

idk why it took so long lol they shouldve gradually nerfed him as time went on. the fact that he received no nerfs after bangkok is quite embarrassing

W mans

it wont change but hopefully it will result in rule changes so situations like this doesnt happen since it could've been avoided from the start

"why did KC keep playing it" is a horrible argument seeing as they dont choose when to cancel matches. If KC had won the map over TL i would still hold the same opinion.

If you recognize that the game is unplayable for both teams resulting in a result that doesnt prove who was better, why are you so against the map being replayed? if you hold the opinion that the game was unplayable then you shouldnt be against the idea of having a map played without issues.

It may feel unfair for TL but i think they should restart it. Game was unplayable which means whatever results comes of it shouldnt count.

KC had freezes in clutch situations and mid rounds resulting in them not being able to re roll the rounds since they've already taken damage. same goes for TL. the most fair option would just be restarting the map

i dont like the argument "TL played under the same circumstances therefore its fair" ignoring the fact that the game was unplayable for both teams and should've been cancelled before the map ended

he took a break. he will terrorize another region soon dw

still stuck on pearl and som just put his cove down

A man can dream

verno is a rookie dummy

and if youve known the history of MIBR you wouldve known theyve been trading players between furia and lev

also liked the fact that MIBR went with rookies instead of reusing other pros from different orgs. shows that the talent is still there but the management is just fucking about

Old kanye

there arent many players you can pick up that

• Have visas
• speaks english
• ready to relocate mid season

my team is shit

but ban is still a decent pickup considering he was decent for talon.

ban isnt even a bad pickup

those 2 are nowhere near the worst coach changes
