I’ll see you guys in a month 🫡

cs gives 16/24 slots to a single region
league gives a max of 4/24 slots per region

cs is way more of a one region game then league cause, even if only one region is winning, most regions actually play the game and Riot gives a chance to even the worst regions

so free

Gen.G, TS*

We will change the name of the game to Counter-Counter Strike to fix this

VPL, VAL, VEL

i thought it was just limited to SEA/SA teams, but it'd be cool if the last three slots went to say DRX, EDG, and ZETA

bro came prepared

wdym?

TS is one of the best IGLs in KR other than stax/zest, k1ng is one of the best aimers in KR, eKo was great in the EA LCQ, and Secret is a great upcoming talent as a 6th man

Only player that’s a questionable pickup is iNTRO imo, everyone else deserves their spot

I'm surprised he rated Talon so low

Hollow Knight

I never learned Japanese in school cause we took English classes instead, so I would say google translate for a majority of them. I can only think of a few Korean players, like Astell, who seem to be fluent in Japanese. So probably just google translate

lmfao, someone really said “what team can realistically beat Fnatic”

I mean if he was able to beat out Lakia in tryouts, there has to be something special about him

You mean unofficially?

Marved, nukkye, JUGi, BCJ, and Dicey are some notable ones still not signed

TS and RRQ are going to get farmed internationally, but PRX/TLN and GE (if other teams underestimate them) should still do well

nah that's just me and the boys running some 5 stacks, dw about it

If BLD spend +1M on their roster only for them to lose to EDG in the Ascension tournament

JDG, T1, DK, EDG
JDG, DK
DK

Would be a cool script

KOI, KC, NAVI, VIT, TL, TH, BBL, GIA, FUT
C9, NRG, LEV, FUR, MIBR, SEN, KRU, LOUD, 100T, EG
GENG, DNG, TLN, GE, TS, ZETA, T1, DRX, PRX

Deft vs EDG will be fun

GGs, good to sit down the toxic fans that were in the chat earlier today

TS = Team Save

stax is yet to wakeup this tourney, maybe it's harder to focus on the game when he doesn't have Zest's shotcalling help?

lenne

Gen.G

If Zest plays, the odds are like 95-5 for DRX
If Foxy plays, the odds are like 60-40 for DRX

Didn’t Sacy have to speak English when he was a guest on Play Chat before Reykjavik last year? I remember him being surprisingly fluent

Foxy is an amazing talent, all he needs is some better discipline

Foxy kind of messes up the roles of the team, I thought he was getting subbed in for BuZz/Rb, not Zest

His Chamber is T1 but Jett looks more comfortable for him to play

Daejeon Hana Citizen

Nice try CNJ, they had too many throws to count on the last map but had some solid moments on Ascent

cause that game was a bit of a fluke / not a serious match, look at the rest of their results

CNJ could've won if they stopped throwing 5v3s and 5v2s so often, TS are getting by right now with just individual skill

PH vs ID, KR vs SA, and ID/PH vs SA will probably be the most toxic

Didn't Mith just lose to an unsigned team the other day?

Gen.G and T1 are the two I'm referring to. Last time I checked those two orgs weren't invested in KR when KR players were going to JP and if you want to say they aren't stable, you're straight up delusional.

I feel like we have forgotten that it's a Pacific league now. SEA/KR/JP/SA are all the same region now, no need to be toxic.
It's in all our best interest to have the best teams produced from Asia, I feel like we've all forgotten this fact. The trash talk can be fun but some of you guys are being weird about it.

KR/JP slot could honestly be justified either way to be honest. JP have the fanbase but KR has the stable orgs + more T1 players

i can't tell if this is sarcastic or not, but if it's not, bro that's what you guys said about teams like TS in the past

agreed but I'll just say that it's hard to not be toxic when so many SEA fans were still holding 2021 LCQ results over our heads before Champions

1. Said they would represent Indonesia, instead signed 5 PH players and only 1 ID player initially
2. Rumored to be trying to get players to sign trap contracts
3. Signed T2 players in order to stay on a budget, presumably because they only wanted to pocket the Riot stipend
4. Were then slapped on the wrist by Riot, forcing them to sign actual T1 players. The social media accounts have been trying to play it off like they've meant to create a 10 man roster all along lmao when we all now know what's been happening behind the scene

LMFAO THE TIMING OF BOTH PLAYERS

Favorite: NU vs V1
Most satisfying for me: DRX vs FPX (Rematch) or VS vs ACE

CNJ need to heavily work on their teamwork/synergy, you can tell by how many times they fail to clear a corner

true, def got better as the tournament progressed

ID vs PH is just a series of one attacking the other and then the other playing the victim card to the extreme lmao

do CNJ even scrim T1 Pacific teams?

ONS = T1 players, bad coordination
CNJ = T3 players, bad coordination
