PRX beat both EU and NA's first seeds, they are just better

*5-0

Honestly groups are fked
Guild, Optic, Loud all three > All Group B teams except DRX
one should have not been here

Split has produced certified bangers after certified bangers, tf u mean

I would argue ascent is one of optic's weakest maps
After Iceland, they have changed their ascent comp THREE times

Their cringe comp against C9 was better imo

Idk, if everyone is going to their 2021 iceland form, shaz is gonna be a top tier IGL, cosigned by sean gares and boaster
But thats huge copium lmao and IF they manage to come back

This is what I said a while back in a tweet about how I think it should be done, hopefully they do it soon:
Wall: make it either a mini astra wall that 'burns' bullets that pass through or make it like a bangable wall, reducing bullet damage
Molly: make radius like brim, increase damage to 200 and heal to 85
Flash: reduced path/pop time and lasts as long as yoru's
Ult: 2 sec increase + cancel

This the biggest cope I have seen, especially with how optic played last night

Deffo is the weak link ngl

How did u manage to make a more braindead comment than the OG post

The hell is this opinion, optic plays like a hive mind, so does fnatic
Both teams are great, stop trying to downplay one to praise the other

Double initiator is meta rn, so the optimal adjustment would be dapr to smokes, shaz (sova, fade, breach) and kanpeki (skye, kay oh) initiators, sick duelist and tenz chamber

In chamber meta, dapr is actually the one most losing his value as a player despite being an amazing player
On non-viper maps, if tenz is on chamber, he has nothing left to play in his agent pool

There is a slight problem with this
What will dapr play lol

Tied for highest amount of international trophies still

I didn't say he is a problem lol, I specifically said he was having a tough game cuz he is their best player by far
Their best player having an off day, going 8-21 and they still got fracture to 11-13 shows that they are good

People forget that their duelist i.e., xeppa was having a tough af game in first map
They lost fracture 11-13 and xeppa was 8-21, if he wasn't having a tough time, they may have just won

unfortunately he wasn't playing chamber on haven on stream either
He on jett, shaz prolly off sova tho

0 advantages? Bruh, loud got full map vetos and optic didn't get any lol, that was a HUGE advantage for loud

It actually is, one of the devs on twitter confirmed that phoenix has been in the testing for a bit now but there's not a set date on them coming out

lol

?

Literally most Asian countries like mine lol
Twitter is the frowned upon 'dumb' app here xD

Bro out here acting like yoru isn't actually viable, unlike phoenix
Teams have proven that if u know how to play him, he works

Entirely the opposite lmao
What they are doing is clearly not working so they NEED to take risks, more than the winning teams

if u been seeing any of the matches, there IS no "meta" comp
I just want them to run ANYTHING aside from the same jett comps

Seems SEN actually run a yoru comp but haven't had a chance to run it yet, interesting
https://clips.twitch.tv/BenevolentIcyPterodactylLitty-f0SCXd5wBVv0DSx9

Fade + Breach + Yoru is actually broken ngl, even in ranked
Take pro comms and practice with that, I have faith

0head take

Watching current SEN makes me keep looking back at Shroud randomly trolling about the sen roster "disbanding" after champions, its just so fking sad to see
https://youtu.be/qUmaHyGu8ZM

People are just weird, a couple of off games and its "kick him" this or "x better" that
No single player should get the amount of shit that tenz gets when he is not performing ngl

Oh I agree
Was just responding to y asuna doesn't seem to get as much shit as someone like tenz or something when he is not performing (which I think is good, no single player should get shit like that)

He has always been a wild card, when he is ON, there aren't many people on his level
das y he gets a free pass I guess

Looking at the format, all the teams that only just qualified are at a MAJOR disadvantage cuz of patch change/new comps
So defo gon be interesting
I would say OPTIC, C9 and NRG

Playing more valorant matches after winning matches
So whats the problem?

Playing to your opponents' weakness instead of your own strengths is the first sign of lack of confidence in this game

Bruh akrew had to, fracture and breeze are their permas, a team like SEN that's known for their individual plays would have beaten them with 0 practice on em

Man talking like SEN didn't beat NYFU anyways just a week ago in the 1st qualifier even though they (SEN) were looking like absolute shit

Very map specific
His viper on bind is defo up there

Yeah I don't think there is bad blood between them cuz Tarik was watch partying with BabyJ, Nadeshot

Anyways, watch tarik's watch party
El diablo in call

100t and TSM Era is back babyyy

They don't lol
Wardell has also flat out stated that he isn't decided on when and if he wants to return to pro paly

Its not even behind the scenes, zellsis flat out has said that win or lose, he is taking a break from competitive play so there's that mental thing too, that even if they win, they won't have a teammate for the real thing
V1 are not at their peak at all

Tbf nrg really didn't need bootcamping as their fundamentals were all there
They just got incredibly unlucky last playoffs, losing every single series by 1 or 2 rounds

"I wish i could tell you guys something about whats happening all around this team" while looking down af in the stream

Guessers?

Bro what match did u watch, tenz had 324 ACS on Fracture and 319 on Split on raze
He was NOT at fault this match
