You don't know shit about how they are playing in Scrims, Saadhak himself said they were struggling and focused more on improving that anything else.

Yet you keep hyping them up like they are undesputed first place - the best team in the world... hopefully most people can distinguish the players and the normal fans from the stupid annoying one's like you

I know Loud might look good, but chill.

It's the same guy, not really a journalist but he sure likes to leak stuff.

Pretty much everything he came up with was true in the BR scene.

Weird decision, V1xen performed well on the international stage, even tho his playstyle is mostly focused on helping the team.

My hope is that RGL is just a great IGL and that a strong voice is what's lacking on VK, otherwise they're wasting one of the best controllers in Brazil.

According to Noyn that's not what's going to happen.

Pelo lado positivo, se a equipa não funcionar ainda têm excelentes players que provavelmente fariam melhor figura noutra equipe, se o KILLDREAM ficar free agent espera que alguma equipa tier 1 o apanhe.

A Sharks é muito estranha, tecnicamente todos os player deveriam ser bastante bons nas suas função mas parece que pelo estilo de jogo nenhum deles se consegue destacar.

A antiga Sharks para além de ser melhor taticamente conseguia jogar mais solta.

Doesn't make much sense to me, either they'll take out V1xen and he's a perfectly good controller or Jhow and RGL will have to become a sentinel.

One of the worst teams I agree. But the worst?

They 3-0'd LEV, and LEV had a really close series against KRU - I'm not saying that this makes NIP better than KRU by any means but it indicates that especially with Fluyr coming in as coach maybe they're at least close in level.

That was a joke by Josh - he asked people to give him fake scrimbux on twitter.

There wasn't even enough time for them to practice against that many teams, they started 2 days ago I think.

There aren't 0 flaws in LOUD but they haven't been pushed enough by BR teams to the point where some players just underperform.

Their hardest series was against Liberty and they won because every player was on point, winning every clutch they could.

Even tho I often root for Brazil I also think they are one of the worst teams in the tournment, but they are pretty dangerous, I don't know if it was the Fluyr factor but they seem more organized now than when they played against LOUD... also they don't lack firepower at all.

On a good day they could give any team in the tournment an hard time.

You are so cringe

that's an understatement

They have the same spots, the only difference is now they are destributed between Brazil and LATAM

In my opinion, no.

I believe that LOUD manages to use their utility to maximize Aspas potencial that's the main reason he frags out so much - but skill wise Heat has a more crucial role on his team.

Also ignore trembola, he said that Keyd was gonna stomp this series so that speaks for itself. Aspas gets a lot of impactful kills even tho his FK isn't as high as most Jett mains that's just because his team doesn't need to rely on him to make agressive plays on defense very often. It's because of the playstyle of the team not bcz he lacks fire power.

2 - 0 for Liberty

A map will be somewhat close the other will be easy and clean.

You know what matters? First kills, and he got 16.

Yes, that's how it works, there was no improvement, no change in the team and also they didn't evolve tatically they are just the exact same team.

Jogo bom de assistir mas certo erros persistem, a capacidade das equipas tanto a LOUD como a Liberty de jogar situações de extrema vantagem por vezes é bem ruim.
A Liberty taticamente encontrou-se vários vezes em situações bem favoráveis que a LOUD tinha que reverter com jogadas individuais, isto fica evidente especialmente na Ascent (Não só 5v2 do Less e Sadhaak, mas também 5v4 e 4v3 que a Loud acabava ganhando na bala).

É uma pena a Loud não ter um analista focado somente no aspeto técnico do jogo, acho que ajudaria demais a equipa e talvez tivessem ganho esse jogo com uma vantagem bem mais confortável e fora isso têm SEMPRE que valorizar as situações de vantagem, algo que equipa consegue obviamente fazer mas por vezes perdem-se no momento.

na verdade eu não sou burro, estava simplesmente fingindo.

I agree with Xand being a pretty inconsistent player but I disagree with everything else.

First Bezn never really had a team he could pop off on, mostly just tier 2 teams and he was consistently good on those.
Second Cauazin is a very young player and is most likely the most promising player in Brazil at the moment alongside with Less, he isn't average at all.

They're doing a camp early on NA, if they manage to get to masters dgzin will really be nice to watch, he's the only sniper on Brazil on Heat's level, and he's probably more consistent.

True, they accidentaly beat Furia, than had a fluke against Sentinels, than in a moment of luck won against Fnatic and almost took out Gambit.

That's some luck right there.

Saadhak is playing flex, mostly second iniciator.

Right now people think that Less was the sentinel selected by LOUD.

The tweet in portuguese would indicate otherwise - novidades em breve (news coming soon).

But now what will happen to LATAM? They have no teams.

Meanwhile Brazil has a bunch of ORG's that want to invest but there are basically no tier 1 players left.

Tier S - Loud, Vivo Keyd

Tier A - Furia, Sharks, NIP

Tier B - Gamelanders, Oddik, MIBR

Tier C - Liberty, Vikings, Liberty, Stars Horizon

Tier D - Los Grandes, B4, Rise, Try, Lusa, Fluxo

Em termos de players todos são excelentes nas suas funções, pode parecer estranho mas o sucesso do time vai depender mais do trabalho feito pelo coach e pelos analistas.

A Vikings está interessada no Ds, então acho que o Fizzy vai fechar o line da NIP e Ds vai preencher a line da VKS no lugar dele.

Só falta o Janny, mas provavelmente encontrou uma equipa t1 na europa.

Nada contra o Killdream e o Addicted obviamente são excelentes nas suas funções.

Eu sei que podem mudar de função né, mas é meio contra produtivo já que não têm resultados demonstráveis nessa função (que eu conheça) e já que existem outros jogadores excelentes em Portugal com muitos mais conhecimento da função (teoricamente) disponíveis.

A line da Sharks com os reforços portugueses pode até ser verdadeira, mas não faz o menor sentido, Addicted é um iniciador uma role que provavelmente vai ser feita pelo Frz e o Killdream é um duelista que joga maioritariamente de Jett, uma função que é claramente do Gabx.

A equipa vai ter 3 duelistas, 2 iniciadores e 0 controlares e sentinelas?

Se os reforços são de facto portugueses é mais provável ser Fizzy e Ds, ou algo do gênero.

Muito gente vai criticar essa lineup, mas eu achei bem interessante.

Não tem muitos jogadores com resultados comprovados, mas tem bastante potencial. Se souberem trabalhar juntos podem segurar um lugar no top 5 das melhores equipas.

That's what google translate does to you, first tweet was VERY CLEARLY ironic and the second tweet you are interpreting the word "apavoro" way to literally.

Same way you might say - I'll cause a riot, or bring caos if you're being loud and over the top.

If they meet again in playoffs Acend will actually be so fucked, even without the cam Keyd outplayed them.

Fair enough tho.

If that's actually true and the cam was on it, than I change my mind, if he missed it it's still his responsability - Pro players don't have to know everything that happens around the world like the X10 or VGIA situation but if it's explained to you and they show the actual things you can't do than fair enough.

Still think they should've paused, but if that's actually true than the punishment was fair.

Come on my dude, Riot is being insanely inconsistent, pausing in some cases in not others, aplying different punishments.

Of course you can just think I'm an idiot but most pro players are saying the same things just look at Yay and Asuna for exemple.

Jhow said that he didn't have a clue, of course he could be lying but I doubt that if he knew what happened to teams that used the cam in the past he'd actually use it in an international event.

I doesn't take 2 hours, it takes to minutes to check Jhow's POV and see if that he was using was indeed an exploit - an the first time I saw the it I knew it was the bugged cam, so I think Riot should also be able to do so.

If Riot just didn't actually see Keyd using the exploit, than starting 0-1 against Envy would be pretty fair, purely because of the minimal role the cam had in that game.

I just don't get why they paused the game instantly when they thought Furia was using an exploit (Haven jump on C) - that actually wasn't an exploit. But when they see an actual exploit being used, they don't pause at all, in my opinion they should be consistent about this.

Tbh I'm only kind of mad because when the cam was used for the first time the game was 8-4, and during the entire match the camera was only used twice, on the 9-4 for Keyd (Eco for Acend) and on the 12-7 (Eco for Keyd that they lost), and the cam wasn't even a key element for winning any of those round - the other 4 round the cam was there but wasn't at all, no even to check if A site was completly clear or if someone was about to flank.

Don't actually think they are the best but both Heat and Yay are very good honourable mentions.

The pure magic of the brazillian Raze, but like... playing Sova and Skye.

Still think Krain was the better option but having a beast like MW on the team might bring in some extra motivation to the players.

They didn't replace him because he was a bad player, it's just because he beat his ex girlfriend.

Not really a duelist at all, he'll be an iniciator I think.

Don't get me wrong, MW is an amazing player but tbh I'd prefer if they got Krain as an Flex/Iniciator - I think he has a bigger agent pool than NTK and that way VK would still have the nice duelist sinergy between Heat and Murizzz.

If they end up picking MW to play Sova and Skye I think it's kinda dumb, he'll obviously still make some nice highlights but as a team player I think I prefer Krain.

You can't actually have a good take.
