Verno, Zekken, Less, Mazino, Aspas, fRoD and Happy is an extremely stacked superroster but here is the harsh truth. Even if MIBR signed Less, Cortezia or Inspire, they will still not qualify for internationals, let alone win a trophy; they will still be exposed as superfrauds. It makes no difference at all. The only way MIBR can qualify and win Champs is to sign Itopata so him, Tex, Mazino and Aspas can unite with each other again. Only Itopata can bring the best out of Aspas, Mazino and Tex. Only Itopata can reignite the lost team chemistry between this friendship trio. Only Itopata can revive Aspas's dominant 2024 form and restore his glory. Glory to Itopata!

Why is Jowa still playing for Wolves when he already got benched? Why is Whzy on the BLG bench? It kind of sucks that a lot of tier 1 teams are gonna play with subs, I really wanted to see how Tier 2 Chinese teams will perform against Tier 1 teams with their full rosters. At least I get to see Mindfreak play though

My dream VCT team:
Brawk
Koshmaras
Dambi
Alym
Whzy
Alecks

EDG will wreck TH again in London, mark my words. I cannot wait to see Koshmaras get hard exposed as the biggest EU Neon merchant by my glorious kings Kangkang, Autumn and Jieni7.

ZETA and DFM, did you know that BLG decided to release Muggle and replace him with a Korean coach? If you guys are not stupid and truly want to save Japanese Valorant, you guys really need to sign Muggle as a head coach. XQQ, Melofovia and NorthernLights all need to sacked from VCT immediately; they are 100 times worse than ENGH and Immi. Muggle is literally a world champion coach that brought utmost glory and prosperity to VCT China back in 2024. If Muggle can carry China to the top of VCT, then he can also do the same shit and restore glory to Japan. I am tired of seeing ZETA and DFM dickriding their tier 3 Japanese coaches and not give a fuck about winning in VCT. If you cannot buy Muggle, at least try to sign other trophy winning coaches like ENGH, Kaplan, Itopata and Elmapuddy

You cannot handle me speaking the truth, SugarZ3ro is genuinely a much more blatant paycheck stealer than Asuna and Xeppaa. ZETA has continued to become a bottom VCT team with SugarZ3ro for years and years and years. They will never improve and will always be a bottom feeder team if they keep him. In VCT, FNS, Boostio, Asuna, Cauanzin and C0m has unironically achieved a lot more domestically and internationally than this guy

if alfajer was so good, why didn't he make it to an international this year? (although I think he will finally make it to Shanghai with the new initiator cooldown changes, which favours fnc a lot)

Verno, Zekken, Less, Mazino, Aspas, fRoD and Happy is an extremely stacked superroster but here is the harsh truth.

SiuFatBB left WOL for TYLOO to replace unc Sword9. WOL somehow fumbled Spring and let him join AG, this team is extremely stacked holy shit. They have K1ra, Shr1mp, F4ngeer, Spring and tier 2 demon Bai. Fayde left WOL to return to his old team XLG. WOL got a new coach and still have 3 vacant players, who is gonna restore this org's former glory? C0m? BerLIN? Xeppaa? Tex?

bro, South American orgs are now 0-10 in maps against North American orgs in playoffs? Nah not like this, how can you guys completely crumble in playoffs when it mattered the most? Fuck me man

Come on MIBR, please lock in against 100T and win some maps for SA orgs. It would be so boring if SA orgs go 0-10 in maps against NA orgs in playoffs

Head coach: Melofovia (worst paycheck stealer out of all VCT coaches, this guy deserves 1000 times more hate than Immi, ENGH, Potter and Muggle)
Assistant coach: XQQ

Honourable mentions: SugarZ3ro, Cauanzin, Asuna, Immi, pipsoN, NorthernLights

Nah there is absolutely no way that Lukxo just consistently farms Group Stage and Kickoff, just to go 9/29 in his first Playoffs game. He is giving me flashbacks of 2025 Stage 1 BOOM when they won all of their group stage games just to get destroyed on every single map in Playoffs

Will GE end up like RRQ in internationals or will they surprise everyone by making a Wolves miracle run? I am not that convinced by this team yet, but I hope they prove me wrong in London

I honestly don't get the hate for any of these teams. G2, RRQ, VIT and XLG don't deserve to be hated by their own region; these teams are fucking goated and I really love them. Why hate on people like Jemking and Crazygoat? They seem like very chill and nice people. We need a lot more justice for these teams; they deserve so much more love than the hate they are getting right now

I saw LEV and G2 just completely run over FURIA, KRU and 100T like a hungry pack of dogs. Is there really such a huge gap between Group Alpha and Group Omega?

Keznit and Dgzin, this unstoppable duo would destroy all VCT teams

If TL, BBL and FNC truly want to win champs, they really have to sign Fayde and BerLIN, otherwise they are not gonna win any trophies. Fayde is still him. Don’t think that Strong, Milan, Mini and Anderzz will be the solution to their shortcomings. No other talented player can save these sorry ass teams, only BerLIN can change them

I think FNC would have the best chance at making champs if they employ Fayde as the head coach. FNC Fayde would be the best option IMO. What do you guys think? There is also Strong and Anderzz but I honestly prefer FNC ENGH and FNC Immi over them.

If China wants to truly be a very competitive region in internationals, VCTCN teams really need to consider getting Strong, Milan, Mini and Anderzz and offer them huge amounts of money. If China doesn't poach these coaches, most of the VCTCN teams will always continue to become dogshit. This is literally the best chance for most VCTCN teams to be able to compete with top dogs like EDG.

G2 never fails to get top 4 in masters, keep crying lmao. We really need g2 in masters, otherwise America has a lower chance of winning internationals

no, flashback is either joining WOL, FPX or C9. I reckon it is C9 Flashback

Keznit, he can consistently drop generational nukes and nobody would give a fuck, like the C9 vs ENVY Kickoff game where Keznit dropped a 71 bomb against Demon1. Everyone was praising Demon1 and Keznit barely got any praise in that game. In terms of the general public opinion, he is completely overshadowed by Nightz and Demon1. If Demon1 and Nightz drop nukes, all of the NA fans would glaze the fuck out of them

who gives a fuck, did you see dgzin drop 69 kills and keznit drop 73 kills today? we really need dgzin and keznit together in the same time, with frost and termi coaching them. frost and termi are also top coaches in vct

I cannot think of any other better tier 1 and tier 2 players to replace Xeppaa than C0m. Maybe BerLIN can also be a very formidable replacement for Xeppaa but idk. Who do you guys think is gonna join C9? Will it be another nepo hire?

From 3rd in Toronto to being the worst team in VCT and EWC, holy fucking downfall. Who the hell is this LuXlis guy, I think BerLIN needs to join WOL and replace this man immediately. Only BerLIN can save WOL and restore glory to this team

Keznit and Dgzin have consistently boasted the highest ACS in their teams and have always been the best fraggers on ENVY and EG. They are fucking unstoppable, we should put these two on the same team. They can easily become the best duo in VCT

I've seen enough, Zellsis is the biggest onliner in VCT

Fun fact: The last 10 BO5 tier 2 matches were all 3-0’s for some reason. What the fuck is happening in tier 2 Valorant, why is there always one team that is clearly 100 times better than all teams in their subregion?

Tier 2: https://www.vlr.gg/510423/qt-dig-vs-dfm-academy-challengers-2025-japan-split-3-w2/?game=225245&tab=overview (Dropping a pi on map 1 and then getting 0 kills on map 2 is absolutely generational. How do you get only 3 kills in 35 rounds?)

Tier 1 (unofficial): https://www.vlr.gg/675340/bilibili-gaming-vs-wolves-esports-esports-world-cup-2026-china-qualifier-stage-1-ubsf (How do you even drop 50 ACS throughout the entire series and go quintuple negative?)

Tier 1 (official): https://www.vlr.gg/542267/nrg-vs-giantx-valorant-champions-2025-ubqf (Ara's 0.17 rating in this Champs Paris series will forever be legendary)

There's a good chance that BerLIN might be dropped from FPX. TL and FNC fans, would you guys all want BerLIN to replace Wayne on TL or CyvOph on FNC, now that BerLIN is finally a free agent? At the moment, BerLIN is definitely one of the most invaluable pros without a team.

Why is he not playing for FPX in EWC qualifiers? Did BerLIN get dropped or did he just have personal issues? Please don't tell me that BerGOAT got dropped :(

Estrella, Suggest, Jinboong, Governor, Lakia

Why are the EWC qualifier games from other regions shown on VLR but the Chinese ones are not even shown. The CN games start in around 7 hours and a lot of people on VLR are very hyped to see BerLIN play in the FPX vs NOVA match. VLR mods, why are you guys so shameless and discriminatory? You guys can't even do your fucking jobs correctly.

EDG got a direct invite to EWC as the first seed of China but there is a very very high chance that the main team won't play in EWC. EDG are probably going to send their full academy team to EWC or something. Maybe 5 other random ass players, idk. I think more other teams are not even gonna send their full main roster to EWC

Xeppaa is not called the off-season Aspas for no reason. He will dominate every single American team in EWC Qualifiers, and maybe win EWC himself

I admit that Korean tier 2 teams like ONG and GGA are just on another level compared to every other APAC tier 2 team, but I can definitely say that CN tier 2 is no worse than Tier 2 SEA, SA and JP. BLG Academy are looking pretty nice in Tier 2 SEA despite having 3 extremely inexperienced tier 2 players. It is not even a top tier CN tier 2 team, but BLG Academy can easily wipe out all JP and SA tier 2 teams

If GENG loses to ZETA and gets eliminated from EWC qualifiers, I am gonna cry my heart out for the rest of the week. When I watch GENG replay the same uncoordinated mistakes, I can feel my tears welling up behind my eyes. Another eco round lost. Another post-plant thrown. The tears come not from the scoreboard but from that stubborn hope that kept me tuning into every match, believing that this time would be different. Crying over an EWC qualifiers game feels silly, until you realise that it was never just about the game. It was about the insane lore behind every GENG player, the extremely high potential that this team can bring to the server, the beautiful loyalty of loving a roster you can’t control. So I let the tears fall. This time, I’ll be watching GENG vs ZETA, hoping again that things would be different this time and that they can make it to EWC in Paris

It has only been 11 hours and the EDG vs XLG grand finals Bilibili livestream already has 1.13 million views and will hit 10000 bullet comments soon. This is only Bilibili and not other content platforms like Huya. Even though VCTCN is not at its best state right now, the viewership and money from the region is still absolutely nuts. Imagine if VCTCN finally started doing well internationally like the other regions

I am low-key extremely excited to watch FPX vs NOVA play in EWC qualifiers tomorrow. Are we all excited to watch BerLIN play again tomorrow?

Is it gonna be streamed tomorrow? I am deadass so excited to watch VL and ZETA clash again, am I the only one that feels this way?

Rossy: Ass on LEV, great on ENVY
Artzin: Ass on MIBR, great on FURIA
Bang: Ass on SEN, great on 100T
Mwzera: Braindead on FUR, great on KRU
Koshmaras: Mid in tier 2, now a Neon monster on TH
Marteen: Good on KC, now an unbeatable, top player on M8
Governor: Ass on TALON, ass on APEKS, ass on KRU, future best player on PRX/FNC

Every ass player will be absolutely insane if they join the right system of a VCT team that will allow them to play to their strengths and shine. I know Governor has extremely high potential to win trophies, his ceiling is higher than most VCT pros. He just needs to find the right team that he can magically click with and shine like a superstar.

I love Queen BuZz and Princess Stax, but unfortunately, TenZ joining T1 ruined everything. I still love Stax and BuZz and want to see them win but fuck TenZ. I don’t really get the hype and love for the current TenZ nowadays

They only trained with Nightz this week and still destroyed MIBR. the bind comp was also a last minute thing

1) XLG vs JDG in Upper Semifinals of VCTCN Stage 1
2) MIBR VS ENVY in VCT Americas Group Stage Week 5

These 2 games looked like blatant cryptothrowing from JDG and MIBR.

We need these teams in London: GE, FS, RRQ, NRG, G2, MIBR, BBL, FUT, VIT, DRG, XLG, EDG

London would not be peak if RRQ, NRG, and BBL were not there. RRQ and NRG are a must in every international because of Jemking, Crazygoat, Rose and Brawk. They deadass have way too much aura right now

Is NS seriously gonna fall for the first Masters curse again? Can we even call it a First Masters curse when the Champs curse also exists? We might as well call it an international trophy curse at this point

Am I happy that DRG made it to London? Definitely not. They won all of their games by only hero rounds and aim diffing. It won't do jack shit against actual good teams. If they don't try to significantly improve from their current form right now, they will be as fucked as Toronto MIBR. They cannot play in London with their current form
