During that game our run in Masters 3 was over and we were in a steak house, enjoying good stakes and watching that bo3 between G2 and GMB on our phones. That series was SUPER important, because, if I recall correctly, if G2 won and placed 2nd in Masters 3 - we would not have qualified to Champions.
Imagine how happy we were to see that Icebox game unfold...
Haters will hate. It doesnt take anything away from the achievements.
Lockin was the biggest (in terms of teams attending) and therefore the hardest tournament to date. Fnatic won and currently are the best team.
nAts is always scary to play against, but on that game... it was something else
I see you 👀
Quite a lot of pros come here. But you can only get replies in decent threads with proper discussions, rather than <INSERT ANY TEAM THAT LOST 1 OFFICIAL> QuICK fIX ThREaD

Sadly it seems that with time it is getting worse and worse. People forgot (or some never knew) what being a fan is all about. Praising your beloved teams and players, supporting them, cheering them on through good and bad times. Of course, banter is a part of it as well, but there's a line between banter and being straight up toxic or borderline disrespectful every chance you get.
Make love, not warcraft ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Should be a good, close match!
I did think that he could be the best LOUD player when I was watching champs, but then again - they had 5 players that all were possibly the best player on LOUD.
2022 LOUD was absolutely stacked with talent, what an incredible team
Let's go Travis!
Being careful is a good thing. Don't look for weird associations or reasons. It's just being careful.
We too did it all the time before major official games. ALWAYS avoided same nationality teams, or some teams that have IRL friends (that we knew of) from other teams.
Better safe than sorry
Good chance that BBL will surprise a lot of people
Hard one to predict, both really strong contenders to go all the way

You're right, I can't.
Truth be told, sometimes it can get quite frustrating being on the inside and reading false information being spread on the internets and not being able to argue or even say anything about some things haha (And I don't mean this topic, just in general)
good thing that making shit up is not impossible ¯_(ツ)_/ ¯
Good theorycrafting, was a nice read. Looks like a strong team with good players and appropriate roles.
Just -sage on pearl (:
"cNed was benched in late September after Acend failed to reach the partnered VCT EMEA League."
Nobody was benched, everyone in the team were allowed to explore options. It's not the same thing. Acend acknowledged that everyone in the team should have a chance to play in VCT if given a chance
Good read nevertheless!
If you're a fan of a player - you will continue to support him no matter where he goes
If you're a fan of a team/club - you will support them throughout the roster changes
If you call players traitors for their career choices - you're a hater, not a fan
Gratz with the progress and determination!
A month is done, now go for a full year
Big true! First lan was just for experience, now they showed that they are just as good as the top teams and any other day could have been top 4 for sure. What an insane series! GGs
It's hard to choose one
DRX - because I was always a big fan of their discipline and pre-set plays
LOUD - because I'm a sucker for HUGE firepower and insane mechanics
FPX - my favorite EMEA team to watch + EMEA's last hope at champs
Hi VLR, my first thread here
Champions are heating up and we're down to just a few teams remaining. Every game is getting more intense, more important and more difficult for the remaining teams, players and fans alike
I want to encourage people to:
-Support the teams and players that you like
-Don't hate on the teams and players that your supported team plays against
-Spread love and positivity instead of hate and envy
Peace!
Very highly doubt that any of the remaining teams would scrim each other. There are plenty of EU tier2 scrims available, probably that's where they scrim. Keep in mind - at this stage of tournament there is not much time to scrim anyways.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Very excited to see EDG face against other top international teams, hopeful for some banger games 💯
Love the positivity and appreciation towards the teams and players, nice thread!
Purp0 is a great player. It is insanely hard to get thrown into an elimination game and perform. You don't give 'miss pressure' enough credit.
Remember Lakia being 6th DRX player and pretty much HAVING to perform when he got an opportunity to play? Yeh.. this is similar, it's super hard.
Hoping for a 5 game series!
Good talent and work ethics
Red Bull Homeground goes international? Now that's a pogchamp if I have ever seen one
Player boosting used to be allowed, but it's banned since May 2022 (at least in EMEA)
Banger match
You said it very well yourself
Ultimate orbs are a nice resource and objective you can get, but they are not free. They cost time and also sometimes cost your position. It's a balance between what and when you think is more valuable.
