APEKS hopium !!

So the next Challenger will have 2 teams ascend as well?

If both of them fails to get to Champion Paris, which team will get relegated? Since both of them got ascended.

I know he plays for TEC but they never stood out ya know :_:

Im excited to see RB playing in Tier 1 again, Nongshim might beat T1 or DRX if i cope hard enough

Only if Team Secret finally get good and qual or Invy just leave for another team ;_;

EXACTLY

I just saw Plat Chat top players rankings and i wonder, who do you think deserves to be up there even tho they arent master/champion contenders or even qualified at all.

My 2 sleeper picks are TS Invy and KC Suygetsu.

Invy is just a god-like player stuck in a dumbster fire of a team.

Suygetsu is just consistantly good in my eyes (i still remember Master Reykjavik like it was yesterday)

Imagine this is Mr Beast buying Twitter for "contents"

Noted

I saw a bunch of hints (its so obvious) that M80 Bao is coming to LEV, which means they could also pick up Sato and Okeanos.

What do ya'll think about this? (Especially Latam fans)

Can i get the source of the info?

:3

They choked harder than my granpa eating solid food

It would be much more exciting if we can go 3 maps plus OT.

Chokers vs Chokers ahhh matchup. I think FNC take this with 4 players going neg and Boaster go pos somehow.

Im a Heretic believer, but the chokes are real.

Oh it has to be Furia

:3

I know we won but this is not the time to celebrate yet. (said me who screamed so loud my mother woke up)
We lowkey need better signings tho, cuz i havent seen enough Patmen impact. (Will change if hes better)
Where tf are the money, did their manager gamble all of it? cuz we rich but why not sign better stars? (please sign actual talents)

(i want to die watching them play)

Either become a proper team with IGLs or just revert back to W Gaming, those are their only options. (Please stop gambling and use the money to sign Super stars, please PRX manager)

When i loses hopes, they win rounds. Then i get my hopes up, they loses threw so hard even HowToBasic throw less than them.

Ill let my hopes be low for PRX, but i trust that they will 2-1 with Patmen dropping 20 and proving himself...or just drop 2 and let Mindfreak sub back in.

fr, Alecks should be derank to assistant coach (for mental supports) and give his spot to another coach.

Paper Rex f*cking their fan every week.

Forsaken

Not sure about 100T's but its definately not Boostio (if he somehow manages then FNS will be in shambles)

Agreed, i dont like Sayf as an IGLing fragger because hes too used to play duelists. People like Derke and Less all used to have top IGLS like Boaster and Saadhak to help them unleash all their abilities and i cant imagine Sayf being able to do that while also hitting shots. Trexx leaving due so internal issues may lead to the dropping of Sayf and possibly the downfall of the "super" team.

They might have something "secret" up their sleeves ';P

Texture bribe coach with 20 skadoodles (leaked by a not really crazy guy).

I have some hopes for other chinese teams really, they might get something going or just another domination year for EDG, TE, BLG and DRG. TMV have lots of hope for Wolves and i trust XiLai and FPX a bit so im hoping (might be coping).

Lots of sixth mans too. Paper rex, Edward Gaming.

Sayonara is a good pickup imo, i dont know about the other guy. Trexx is one of the best sovas i know, just have to wait and see.

Im still looking forward to more Shr1mp's perfromances

Do we know what is the replacement for Ban and Gorv yet?

What were the best and worse roster moves as of now, right before stage 1 to you guys?

i hope they can get RB

Probably D4v41, he's the least impactful player on the team in my opinion. Sometime clutches but thats about it, also his agent pool isnt that great either. Better than Jinggg? Yes, but my mind wanders to him.

For me, Smoggy is better overall, we can also see that we and Chichoo carried EDG for the first half of their tourament so KK can get back in form.

For got about him lol, ill add

My last top 20 have nAts at 8th, so im gonna update it to my newest opinion (only players who isnt retired):

1. Derke
2. Leo
3. Chronicle
4. Smoggy
5. Nats
6. Aspas
7. Mako
8. Forsaken
9. Alfajer
10. DGzin
11. Less
12. Trexx
13. Suygetsu
14. C0m
15. BuZz
16. Soms
17. KK
18. Rossy
19. Boaster
20. Florescence

(Bonus: Sayf, Something, Meteor, Dos9, Eeiu, Foxy9, Cryo, PatiTek, Texture, Oxy, Chichoo)

Is there any recent bias? F*ck no, been there for Nats since 2021 baby! This is just my personal opinion so feel free to peg me. Also I wont even mention SKrossi because the Indian fans keep spamming "Skrossi > :playername:" after one bad moment and we all know he overrated as hell.

SEN will win if Zekken wake up on time and Zellsis perform like the MiBR game.

DRX will win if Mako remember he is the best Pacific controller and Flashback clutches.

SEN retake is masterclass so DRX chances are slim here.

Jokes aside, im glad to see Nats on the international stages again. We will witness the lurk that opened up a new era for Valorant back in the day.

He may be TL Nats, but the one performing will be GMB Nats.

I agree

Like Paper Rex has been so bad recently, how can they actually make a differences?

age like fine wine
