Why is a part 2 thread created lol

I just want the better team from any region to win simple. We don't know who will perform suddenly just like we saw at Champions. So let's hope EMEA does perform well

You think Sentinels would do any better? I know TL didn't deserve the spot for the amount of bs comp changes they made but I don't think this was their fault

Bro you talk as if it's TL's fault I mean what is their fault that FPX can't go it's because of the fuckin war. I know they're Lucky but still hating on TL is kinda fucked up imo

Maybe a team knows as Wkey pressers maybe

NA plays a lot of Chamber Bro
EMEA on the other hand hasn't sent in a lot of Chambers so each region has their own pref I guess

I think for Berlin Masters SEA had 2 but Bren couldn't make it there because of Visa issues

I think the best part was when Zellsis was just bing chillin in the background omegalul

Lol yeah

I have been banned for a game cause of racist remarks

That there my friend...is a W take

I agree

Seems like you spent a lot of hrs studying science

Happy Birthday bro

It's gonna be close I would love to say TL wins 2-1 but considering G2 beat M3C I have to say G2 2-1

The reason why we love the Gambit boys these boys are really nice and kind tbh we could see that in the LAN events and their tweets

Fair take they did defeat Acend there

Copium

I mean their Breeze comp now isn't that bad it's a proper comp

But G2 is very unpredictable

Even Forsaken was on an international stage and nearly destroyed DRX singlehandedly

Let's just see I think this will go on forever

I think they wanna break the TSM vs GenG record I guess?

Just added some more points lol

I partly agree with your point. I know Jamppi was caught many times while using smokes so we could see he isn't that great of a lurker. But if he keeps dying without using his util then it's kinda sad. And like the problem with his IGLing is there are some maps in which he uses Jett. And Jett isn't an agent which an Igl would pick because an IGL is to focus on the strats and combos with the team whereas with Jett all you care is to take duels. I think he should be having a secondary IGL in the maps he plays Jett like Soulcas or Nivera. And in the grp stage Jamppi was rocking with Chamber but now they put that role on Nivera who is actually doing a very good job. Not to disrespect Jamppi who would be better on the OP but as a Sentinel Nivera would be better so they have put him on that role. And about the subpar days yes you could see when Liquid get kinda banged in some rounds they just lose their mental. Scream looks kinda nerfed in Skye but I don't think so for his Sage or his Duelists. As far as G2 is concerned, idk man they have to get things straight simple. Like in a round in Haven where they managed to Stun and Flash Nivera I don't know why they didn't push A long instead they stayed there and let Nivera pick 2 people out and TP back. So overall both teams have more work to do TL are individually really strong but util combinations and some reasonable comps should be there

Yeah and the fact that this is a small map he can smoke from anywhere and his one way smokes are also strong on defense plus yeah I feel his Paranoia is more stronger than his smokes

Fair point I don't know wtf is going on there

Couldn't agree more and besides with the speed boost to Brimmy's Stimmy people can just turn into Sonic the Hedgehog and ferrarri peak like anything. Besides that comp is heavily defender sided. Although in Haven they weren't that needed in defense because Nivera was just playing with G2 by that time. Overall some comps they create look absurd but some have their own meaning. I mean if they hadn't tried more comps then we wouldn't have seen Nivera smashing people on Chamber

I mean the reason Viper came as a second controller was because she was part sentinel. Here both Omen and Brim are pure controller I don't know what they were thinking but nvm they won Split

Yeah saw that but I think Subroza was also at home idk if you watch his stream you would know maybe

If you watched Roza streaming, he too was in his usual spot I don't understand what's going on lol

I think he was moving to Texas right that's what he had put in his tweet

Even then it's about team work and how they play as a team. Which I don't think they did. Better than the Guard match but still not enough

I think Sen played really well this time it's just that V1 is a whole different beast. TenZ managed to show glimpses of why he is considered the best Val player but still not enough. Well tried though

I would want Optic and the Guard to represent NA for masters they would do well. To an extent V1

No I don't think Optic is going to choke again because the team is good. FNS is a very good strategist and IGL you got Yay who basically just mows people down. He is now on the Chamber while only playing Jett in one map that is Ascent and you got the other 3 who are very good in their respective role. The only reason Optic lost champions is because Victor was having Covid WITH Symptoms. So we can expect a good performance from them.

Guard look amazing right now after they had squashed Sentinels, who were the best team of NA and also Luminosity who had just beat V1 who by themselves looked like Masters contenders. The players could hit crazy shots good util usage and good coordination. Yes there isn't any experience but with their mechanics and good strats and coordination, maybe they could be a force to reckon with in Masters. Their game against Optic decides whether they would go to Masters or not.

C9 are strategically very good. Like Leaf is just killing it and Mitch is doing clutches and yeah their initiator duo of Xeta and Xeppah who have been their main strengths so far. But the prob is sometimes they have a very good execute but don't hit their shots, as seen in the game against Optic. Vanity too is half the time sitting with a judge so yeah.

In the end 2 out of these 3 teams are gonna go to playoffs. V1 has a chance. Sentinels are done for let's meet them at Stage 2

To be perfectly honest Scream has a very high ACS on Sage, only lesser than the ACS he has on Reyna. He could also play initiators even though it's not upto the level of his Sage or Reyna

Dude I think this comparison is too much I know Sen is not at it's best but comparing them with CR who have been getting BYEs to get into LAN events is simply too much bruh

True

Sentinels doesn't need to practice they are individually very strong- Shahz says so

The reason why Sen actually were dominant till Masters Berlin was because of their brute aim and individual plays. And since Valorant had only been 1 year old at that time, aim was all that matters and still teams were figuring out how to go about and shit. By the time Champions came teams found out new strategies players became mechanically too good and stuff that now Sen have no advantages. Their style of brute forcing never worked in champions as teams started punishing them for example against TL on Breeze and Split. So they need to change the strats and Shahz needs to read what the other team does properly and not just call out like some random ranked game. Idk what you guys think but it's my opinion as of now

Compared to Steelseries Razor and Logitech?

Idk about roster changes roster looks good. It's just that they aren't playing well as a team, don't play well around their utils that's been the main problem. Maybe the one guy you can kick is Zombs other than that I feel a coach is needed or maybe try role switching

Um I think bringing in their personal relationship here is wrong . I know Sen lost badly but What does Kyadae have to do here. She has absolutely no relation with the way Sen lost cmon guys you can't just blame their personal lives just because Sen lost. To think Threads are created for all this

The way Sen lost is very bad like 13-1 in Icebox. I know Sen doesn't play Icebox too well and shit but still losing like this isn't acceptable. Too many mistakes and fuckin dry peeking stuff. Honestly they need a good coach. These guys are just getting clapped everywhere

My bet would be on Fnatic, M3C and Liquid to make it. Liquid can make it if they don't make any silly comp changes and shit. Other than Liquid maybe FPX or G2(copium overdose).

It's more like TL isn't bad they are a great team and all. It's just that their wierd comps in the grp stages has led them to a point where FPX had to win the match against Navi. Hope they don't try out some shit in the playoffs

I think this match would be harder for Sentinels because Guard look really strong. But I think many Sen haters are waiting for Sen to lose I guess lol. I personally wish that this will be a great game and not a one sided stomp. Otherwise another thread regarding TenZ will be formed lol

They won Icebox but I feel their defense is pretty bad. They nearly fuckin choked if it wasn't for the Deathmaker bladestorm in one round. Nonetheless their attack looks solid and are definitely playing well with strategies, if only not getting aim diffed by OF

Surely they don't choke here right
