I don't understand fracture haters, especially when they left Icebox in the game, and the fact that Pearl is gonna play out like Icebox in the new meta. Bind was a worse map to play than Fracture so this seems like a skill issue

Better? yes. Way better? I dont think so

I know some of them are going to VX, some of them are going to XSET

its literally happening right now

nah the deadline is in february, the october date is .

actually im only half right, teams need a full 5 by october 15th, but they can make any moves they want until february

Riot didnt ask any of the players on either team before they called for a replay, so this L belongs to them not the teams

I think thats pretty exciting, some of the final week games last stage didnt mean anything so there was no point in watching

hasnt recieved an update in years, lazy devs

I hate drinking coffee, but coffee ice cream is goated

I think it just needs time, each reigon has like 1 pair of good casters. EU has Pansy/Hypoc, NA has Sideshow/Bren

Me, CSGO is fun to watch if VCT isnt on

WyattRiver if you want someone funny who pays attention to the game

I was saying people don't get locked up for accusations alone, they get locked up for proof. It definitely bothers her that hes still successful, but she cant really change that, the people that think hes innocent right now wont change their minds unless he admits to it, and if you think that you wont get a conviciton, theres no point in going to court, losing, and having all 10k of his fans harass you for the rest of your life

even tho im an NA fan, G2 Gozen owns NA T2

people don't get locked up because of accusations, and despite having proof she still might not get a conviction. plus court is really expensive

still less important games, viewership isnt the point

Yeah, the main channel is gonna stream a grand finals over some open qual games, thats a no brainer

this is a cold take

lmao bro the flex is looking better every match

its not points, these are the 5-12th place teams from last qual

they are 8 teams with the highest placements that didnt qualify from last week

they get to skip some matches and go straight to ro32

zombs was with the team way longer than kanpeki. if kanpeki has the same stats as zombs over s similar period of time, maybe consider benching him

you dont have to care, but they also dont have to stay silent if they dont like it. as long as you are ok with people calling you out, theres no law that says you cant say female

if woman sounds too old just say girl instead?

I dont think Kanpeki was a bad pickup, but the problem wasnt the roster

wasnt that clip from a match?

then you havent been on this site long enough, every time literally any team loses a first map there are threads about how bad they are, especially if the score isnt close

yeah but you can do damage with any gun, if you really dont want to use phantom/vandal try the guardian, same 1tap, better scope than phantom/vandal and high pen

Harder to use ≠ Weaker, especially because its only harder to use for some people. Making the dash forward only would be a nerf, but I dont think it would actually decrease the power jett has. She's still be able to do everything she already does, and thats the problem

thats another problem, at this point Jett is so central to the way the game worls that shell be picked in ranked even if shes nerfed into the ground. If that hapened, pros might drop her, but everyone else, in all ranks, will still play her

they said they tested that, and it only made it harder for low elo, high elo players were just able to adjust to it so it made jett harder to play without making her weaker

not involving yourself in it is actually the best way. if you REALLY want another take, heres mine:

I think he did it, the audio that Cleo released is really incriminating, but the thing is Riot no longer has a reason to keep him banned. They originally banned him for not cooperating with the investigation, and I think that if he was really innocent, he would have just cooperated and gotten it over with. The fact that she didn't pursue a case doesn't mean he's innocent.

I don't like him, and I wont root for any team that signs him, but I don't think he should be permanently banned from playing until he's proven guilty.

They're the best OW region??

yeah but what if he does believe jasonR is se?xist? should he lie? should you be obligated to defend your friend if you dont think they should be defended

:skull: I think you mean 13-1

*Hopium

for those that want to know, you can use ≠ or != to mean "not equal" in math

wow, didnt see. But the immortal rule is definitely a real thing, so im not sure how thats allowed?

this isnt true because you need to be at least immortal to play in VCT

theres no equivalent, skin drops arent random in this game. the best skins are just opinion instead of being rare drops

SicK is just a chill dude, nothing to hate about him. He plays his role really well and just gives off good vibes

so proud of M3C, insane to see an amateur team go this far in VCT

Overall W list, you could maybe switch Valyn and Shaz

Which teams from your region would you want to go to Masters 1? Which group of teams would have the best chance against international competition?
for me, from NA:

• C9
• V1

BUILDING

i mean yeah these are just my guesses on what agents work best as a team in general on these maps. you could easily look at these comps and pick a different set of 5 that would counter them, but I just wanted to put this out there as a thought experiment.

I'm not trying to say these comps would win 100% of the time, or that teams should only try to run the "best" comps (acend won champs with a comp straight out of the beta) but if you had to make a guess, with all else being equal, what would you think is the best comp for each map in your opinion?

Pretend that no matter what agents you pick, the players are gonna be the best for that pick. Region doesn't matter, just best comp overall. Pro game focused, these comps probably wouldn't work as well in ranked
