Why not? BBL are one of the best emea teams when it comes to mechanical skill, so if their counterplay/fundamentals look good they are able to take maps off of anyone. See back here when BBL are top 5 emea next split.

I could see bleed beating all of the Pacific league teams other than talon and DRX.

Bro are you even watching the fucking matches? Even people who don't watch pro play can tell that BBL looked very good, and that PRX are a very inconsistent team.

I think that a lot of people underestimate what the actual definition of obese is.

that people here

I would assume that there just isn't a big enough playerbase built around valorant for investment into the region to be worth it from a profits perspective.

very cool

Being consistently 5-6th in the world for a year and a half is not irrelevant, especially when they were missing out on a top 3 finish by incredibly fine margins at both masters last year. While one could argue that a 2nd finish and a 4th finish is better than this, you can't just discount the fact that DRX were one of, if not the most consistent team of the pre franchise era.

He's a decent player, but not the best duelist on global esp. I would expect him to be playing hard initiator (which he has played in the past) or maybe even switching to controller/smokes.

Is there any confirmation of this or is it just rumors?

Nah, the first time foxy9 played with DRX he and zest swapped in and out, and it wasn't a serious tournament. The second tournament foxy9 was apparently playing due to zest being sick. I don't think there is any confirmation, and it's just a rumor that foxy is playing instead of zest. I would be very surprised if zest played no maps at lock//in.

they lost 2-0 to funcrew, an unsigned group of mates?

yo this is sick! first group stage pick'ems ever?

did he stream the first? I am following him and he didn't pop up

No english stream :*(

I'm supporting TGRD for ascension because everyone on the team is very likeable, and the game times are somewhat reasonable for OCE.

What more could you ask for from a regular league game? great goals from both sides, and an impressive comeback to round it out.

The tournament can only fit into a certain timeslot, and it can't overshadow champions at the end of the year. While there have been some questionable decisions around the event, just treat it as a March Madness style tournament and enjoy watching the high pressure matchups. It's not that serious.

My top 4 are Loud (I think loosing marved is a big impact for nrg/optic), DRX (I believe that the experience of the DRX core will pull through), Navi (they're good), and sen (mostly because it would be funny for fnatic to lose).

DRX 3-1 Loud
Navi 3-0 Sen

Navi 3-2 DRX, getting their revenge for champs 2022

3rd at champions, top 6 all year, and they have the same core, so the teamplay is through the roof. But sure, DRX frauds super overrated!

Also Sen vs fnatic is not a good move imo. RRQ vs Fut is an opening matchup and so is C9 vs PRX like ?????

bottom five open qualifiers maybe

I looked it up and updated it
I knew it was myself

vlr bugged out and sent my message twice

not till april
wait nvm this is vlr bug

Not till april

when does reduxx play?

Hard cope, one of the youngest teams and they're still getting better. No team has been as consistently top level as DRX

90% sure stax igled at champions, I doubt it's zest. Zest is fine with util, but he isn't the best statistically.

that sucks

Is reduxx unable to play due to age? or is it just a decision by the teams coach

.

that's the standard way of writing predictions on vlr???

Sick>tenz?????????
What are you on about

what did suygetsu do other than place a turret?

I liked the blue

British moment.

Sounds delicious tho.

bro is an apex streamer cut him some slack

I mean I was kinda right on the throw comp lol. Reyna+yoru

i don't think that would work very well, it's too cold for one to keep a hard on

DRX 13-9 but DRX throw comp

A huge load 📷🤔

Yeah ofc, it's not a one size fits all solution, but it does remove a lot of the problems in a lot of the sports. 100% would need to be a case by case basis.

They are not common in the US or heavily US influenced cultures. These include the UK, Canada, AUS and NZ, where PC cafes are simply not a part of the culture.

Sadly, a lot of the time transphobia is the reason for any hate against trans people. Not all of the time, but a lot of the time. On top of this, trans people in women's sports is an ongoing debate. One way to remove this debate is to make sports leagues divided by weight or height, which makes a lot more sense when you actually consider the sport in question. (tho this wouldn't work for valorant.)

The reason for the system is to avoid people creating smurfs in order to play with friends, but this looks like they are exploiting the system. Maybe riot should limit to 3 games a day 5 stacking with players who you couldn't duo queue with or something.
