Remember back in 2021 when NA was known to be a bunch of all aim no brainers and EU was known as the strategy region? Now that almost all regions are strategically similar,

is there a certain playstyle that defines them? I feel like I can see an obvious difference between the other regions and pacific, but that's the most easy one to tell.

It's okay, it's okay. you don't have to hold it back anymore. just let it all out

skuba is fucked dude, he deserves a shot at T1

LMAO

coping mechanism for being unable to control the outcome of the game

They looked really good for the first half, i have no idea why they fell off so hard but they did give T1 a run for their money recently so It's not like they're perma bad, maybe just chokers

I can't help but root for them as an old Guard fan.

Also I played against saya and carpe in a deathmatch once so i root for them individually

its already happening, but like the most popular flair in any region is usually that region's top dog.

I'm wondering what the distribution will look like if DRX is no longer korea's best team

It's nice to see Gen.G and T1 being as good as they are right now; only a year ago DRX was literally the only good team in that region.

If T1 beats DRX I wonder how many Korean users will change their flair from DRX to T1

sry bro i dont have a smurf that low

I want a custom voiceline.

Imagine if, after Yoru aces and says "send 5 more, I can do this again!" he aces again.

There should be a voiceline in that very specific situation where he says something along the lines of "I wasn't kidding"

but hes playing for PRX not T1

I like japan

I especially like that one dude that writes paragraphs about how japanese valorant needs ego like in blue lock everytime zeta loses

I like how they all have their individual strengths.

having mCe as your coach gives your team like +30% individual improvement + unlimited access to pool of cheap, underrated players.
--best choice for financially crippled orgs and teams trying to take a chance on up-and-comers. Dude also births new top IGLs with every team he coaches

having cheT gives you a +50% buff to any preparation against other teams, +20% anti-stratting (he spends all night before the match to give his team this info)--the top choice for rosters full of veteran players and a self-sufficient IGL

having seangares gives you a +40% discipline bonus, ingraines protocol after protocol into his players, makes their gameplay strict and maximizes teamplay--an excellent choice for young/rookie rosters.

You're not delusional, you always have solid grounds to back your claims and you're mostly made up of mainland europeans.

I like navi flair users

That's what it looked like at the time I mean

I have nothing else to do at work than scroll this accursed forum

I feel like the most w fanbase is the one that doesn't actually care if you win or lose, which is hard in americas because everyone's always hyping up their teams to win.

Honestly, KOI's fanbase is pretty neat

Faraday, you have said something very wrong.

Valyn:
-Coached by mCe
-Came out of t3
-Led a team of unknown rookie players at the time to qualify for masters, beating prime Optic, XSET, Cloud9 (with xeta), and dumpstering the rest of NA.
-IGLing remained consistently S-tier even after mCe left, TGRD still regularly shits on franchised teams, not just in scrims but in off-season events.

runi:
-Coached by mCe
-Came out of t3
-stepped up to a vacant T1 IGL role and within 2 weeks made C9 go from looking like the worst team in the league to LOUD's only rival. Beat NRG, claimed top NA spot. Dumpstered every single team in its league except LOUD (who they lost 1-2 to)
-Looks stronger every single game he plays.

Who's better?

Maybe so

I don't think Valyn is a rookie IGL anymore, he's the second best caller in NA imo

He reminds me of Zmjjkk with how aggressive he is.

Genuinely surprised me at lock-in to see him doing so well while all the other jetts we'd been hyping up had been suffering from chamber withdrawal

W

FORSAKEN or ANGE1 you better play yoru in the grand finals

If Zekken leaves SEN I'm never supporting that team ever again.

they're probably just trying out another yoru comp

They beat Furia with less than 3 days of practice, I'm sure that rob moore should just give them time no?

snowglobe knife fns

On one hand, for most players even attending this major, the salaries that their orgs pay them make the actual prize money not worth as much.

but yeah it does kinda suck for situations when you have an underdog team like GamerLegion who had a solid chance of winning and probably earning more than 2 years of their salaries (it's only NA that has those huge inflated contract deals)

All you jett abusers fear the coming age.

The one, true, chosen duelist is here to take the public's undivided attention.

No longer will boring awp shots cluster social media, but instead tp and ult outplays!!!

Better start learning Yoru before your one trick days are over.

Invest in the rift walker today.

you're signed, but really play more yoru

imagine he grows an aspas beard. would totally suit him

soon enough he'll change his name to medg- oh wait

teach me your ways. my gaming pc broke recently so all im left with is a 60 fps gaming laptop.

yo this thread revealed something to me: https://www.vlr.gg/214640/team-of-5-players-starting-with-the-same-letter/#34

Why do so many of the names of all the world's best smokes players start with M? lmao

MaKo
Mazino
Marved
Melser
Mindfreak
Monyet
MrFallin

yo wait wtf Mazino too

What's with the world's best smokes players having their name start with N LMAO

Get your Yoru comfortability up, friend. A healthy yoru is a healthy mind

all you do is stun default spots where they 90% of people play right before your team pushes out

Ever since I saw something hit that 1 fps 1 tap flick across his screen with reyna, i've considered him the best aimer in the world. Jingg is close behind.

In terms of raw aim, Tenz is definitely up there too.

did you do it?

SAME LOL

you actually don't get it. the razer viper mini is actually the most goated mouse for people with small hands and low sens

i just realized lol

bros trying to copy his posture too (pls for the love of god no)

that's probably just high dpi.

You're forced to aim with your fingers and you can hit flicks very easily, but you'll be damned if you want to take a long range duel or microflick

Say your team doesn't want to go with a perma-ban.

For the sake of learning how to utilize a specific comp, remembering certain protocols, etc. on every map

Is it better to scrim a different map every day? or is it better to focus on a single map for a week, and move on to another for the following week, and maybe on the week prior to a tournament have a week of doing all the maps as a refresher?

Lothar is a disgrace to all yoru mains
