Leo is pregnant?

That's a funny joke

I mean... Sova on ascent is Odin paradise. I'll accept it

My beloved 2023 Fnatic hopium has vanished

I hear Kxtqqh is quite good. Trust me, 2025 he gets signed and dominates VCT

Because SEN has a huge fanbase. Many of which are 12-14 year olds

Stopped recently after playing since launch. It's gotten a bit boring and quite ridiculous.
But I do love the fact that they're not getting incredibly greedy and coming out with constant new content

I would like that. One ban per role

Loud's roster looking quite good now that they removed Quick and added Pancada.
I'm expecting them to perform quite well... surely right?

I was just watching the SPG v FearX haha. Guess I wasn't paying attention to the names
Thanks!

Who is Dambi (genuinely curious)

That's just sad

Most likely. Seems like a winning roster only stays on top for so long huh
I still have faith in them but at this point, it's just hopium because of how good they were in 2024.
I do hope they perform well. Still rooting for them to reach the finals no matter how unlikely

That's just sad and cringe

Anyone else excited to see Fnatic play with their new temp player?
Leo was obviously amazing and a big reason for their success in Split 1 but I can't wait to see how they'll perform with a new player.
Especially after the hype that was built around his career in Tier 2.

?

To each their own : )

Issue with a team like FUT is... their performance thus far doesn't inspire confidence in them making it far even if they qualify to champions.

Apart from the obvious contenders (G2, 100T) , I'm watching Loud, KRU and Cloud9 to surprise us.

Yea, KOI has no shot.

I want a tournament with exclusively the weakest VCT teams of each region. I think it'd be quite interesting and I'm curious as to how they'd perform against each other.
Teams like KOI, GiantX, DFM, GE, Bleed, MIBR, Furia and more.

An unfortunate downfall :/

why maybe?

Meh, anyone who thinks Demon1 isn't crazy talented is just dumb

I just wish they were more consistent.

Any1 who thought Lock-In was mickey mouse is just mad their team didn't win.
2023 Lock-In was arguably the best VCT tournament so far

The way they lost the past 3 rounds are crazy pathetic. They've showed very weak gameplay. It's a gg of them having any shot at making it this year

That's a fact

People seem to forget that the sub was in no way a handicap in this scenario. I'm willing to bet that in another universe where MiniBoo did end up playing, TH could've just as well not made it to the finals. Would not have surprised me.
And I'm not saying this as a TH hater, I'm saying this as a TH and GenG fan

You forgot about GenG

For the first time, I feel like Americas is weaker than EMEA and Pacific

Benkai & Blazeking are ruining their future in esports... rip

The guy is basically ruining his own career. It's bad enough being arguably the worst team in VCT but... when you're causing trouble, you're basically asking to get kicked and forgotten.

Agent ban would be real cool, I'd really like that.

Yea my bad, overhyped is the correct word.

That's funny. Sen is hands down the overrated team

Kinda... They have such potential but always choke

People just high on copium

They both have crazy talent and great potential to win Champions

The more South Korean teams, the better ;p

Context? Something happened to cNed?

As a GenG and DRX fan, I do not approve.
I like seeing them each as individual teams as all those South Korean players that were excluded have crazy potential. Thinking of Beyn and Karon especially.
Both teams have a real shot of making it far in Champions.

Meiy, Sayf, Leo, Aspas, Demon1

Who's yukky?

I agree but...
Recently is the key word here. Same can be said for 2023 T3xture, 2023 Zekken, 2024 Demon1. More examples can easily be found. Top players that have fallen of. y0y is also a prime example.
The point is that they were crazy good in their time. They would've been considered a top 5 player back then.

The skill difference between top players aren't very drastic in Valorant imo.
It's hard to confidently say who the top 5 players are as all that's required is for a player to change team, and boom. The guy went from arguably a top 30 players to a top 5 (Ofc it's not as simple as a team change but you get the idea). T3xture is a prime example of that.
His performance in GE wasn't terrible but he wasn't anything impressive. Now in GenG he's been performing crazy good and very consistently.

But I guess the theory does apply in a way that each winning team tends to have at least one player who performs insanely well. The ability to win points with clutch 1v3 situations or starting of a round with an instant pick or two.
Players like T3xture, Meteor, Aspas, Zekken, Leo, Derke, Chronicle, Demon1 and more.

Surely they'll end up nerfing him right? I don't play Valorant often and would rather watch it but... When I played for the first time since the update yesterday, Iso looked a bit overpowered

I want to see y0y playing again

Ok?

Oh yea, such a great video!
