Bruh have you ever seen keznit play? Underrating him like crazy rn

Bro...no way you put icy 6th, and above keznit lmao.

Who's Leah?

How tf did you make that connection? lol

Whole ass lineup larry in the staff just to be missing flashes lmao

Honestly worth the watch though, that vid is funny af. In short though, NRG is ass.

A common problem is they make noise, but then react/move slow, so it gives time for the other team to rotate.

Tbh Demon1 is a little overrated, when NRG has lost he's going giga negative, whereas Cryo for this year, has been fragging in every game. And as you'll note, 100t has only won, once. Cryo is still very good, and not that Demon1 isn't, but he's not levels above like you think.

100t 2-0

Cryo's Jett is good though, maybe not as good as Demon1's, but why are we acting like Cryo isn't good? Peak Cryo is not that much worse than peak Demon1, and that's just one player on the team anyway.

Super teams don't and probably won't exist. There isn't a team you could build that would win every game, it's legit impossible.

It's really not by that much though. At the top half of tier 1, most players are fairly similar in terms of talent. That's why superteams don't work, there's just too many good players. The only reason you say those players are that much better is because they've all won an international event at some point, but 100t players are also really good.

Sure, bang, asuna, and boostio have been struggling some, but Cryo and eeiu are insane players, and the rest can all turn up. I promise if 100t and NRG play, 100t will not lose because of player quality, for this exact reason.

What does a superteam individually even mean? People throw around the term superteam so casually like as if just a random team of 5 insane players makes them a superteam. NRG is just a team of great players, and I disagree that their player quality is that much better than 100t. 100t has very good roster and a lot of firepower, and sure maybe NRG has better players, but it's not by much.

I mean 100t is a weird team though, because they locked their roster late, played in a hard group in kickoff, and then only lost to SEN. Obviously, they haven't beaten a really good team, but my belief in 100t is about the same as people calling NRG a superteam when they only beat Furia.

In the end, the only team in Americas that's really proven themselves with their current roster, is SEN. Besides, there is no objective way to rank teams anyway, to be honest.

Look, LEV has gotten a lot better, but I'm still not convinced LEV is that good. SEN played awful verse them, and tbh NRG doesn't look like they played well against them either.

100t to me, feels like they'll just keep getting better and better. Ofc, as outrageous as this sounds, I'm not going to stick to 100t that much. If they lose again, I'll be happy to drop them lower in an Americas ranking.

Valorant is TenZ and it's frankly not even close, but VCT is fs aspas and it's not even close.

I did underrate LEV I'll admit, but I'm not ready to say LEV is better than 100t fs yet. However, 100t loses to C9, and you got it 100%.

The trans discussion that happens once every few months

Bro the disrespect to supamen is crazy. His rizz and aura would carry the fuck outta EG.

Sad though, good discussions are being had, even if it's also creating a lot of hate.

Nah actually we do not want this because then it'll be a bunch of people either hating on trans people, or with a lack of knowledge thinking their right. Either way, the discussion is important because without it, people will just go on being ignorant, and at that point it's not even their fault.

I agree, but it's less about him fragging and more so that sometimes they aren't setting him up well. That or there's some disconnect about the pace with asuna and the rest of the team. Either way, 100t will have a good chance at contending against NRG/SEN by the end of the split, I think.

Yeah ik, but T1 losing to Zeta/Talon would also be a way.

Well, maybe but two wins minimum for playoffs. TS only have one rn, so if they lose out and Bleed lose out, all GE need is to win against DFM.

They need TS to lose against PRX, Talon, and DFM. Bleed losing to PRX/DRX is likely, and T1 is probably winning out.

On VLR, xffero has the IGL star. I also feel like I remember them switching the IGL from flip to xffero.

Isn't xffero the igl?

Well yeah, I'm a little biased ofc, but it's not like I'm basing my rankings on nothing. It's a bit of a reach maybe, but I don't really see who's better than 100t outside of SEN/NRG rn.

Tbh PRX should let him go and RRQ should sign him. Lowkey put in a 2ge -> Monyet trade.

I'm rooting for 100t because I think they can be really good, but I'm not really a 100t fan.

Asuna is a lot better than people give him credit for, it's just on some maps the coordination with the team isn't quite there, but like his split against G2 was pretty good.

Boostio's individual performance has kind of been lacking recently, but his igling is still good. Xeppaa does have more experience than eeiu, but eeiu is so much more reliable as a fragger.

Bro...

xeppaa is not better than eeiu, asuna when he's on is better than runi, and vanity is absolutely not better than a champs winning IGL.

I mean it's not even that biased, 100t genuinely have a good roster. They look good right now, although I don't know how long that'll last.

C9 look decent at best, let's be honest. If OXY doesn't frag that team is doomed.

Edit: Maybe that's a little unfair to C9, but I guess we'll see when C9 and 100T play.

Nah, 100T look good and better than LOUD/LEV/C9. There really isn't a solid 3rd team in Americas imo, but 100t takes it for me.

No way you think C9 is better than SEN

IMO:

1. SEN
2. NRG

Tier Gap

3. 100T
4. LOUD
5. C9
6. LEV

Tier Gap

7. G2
8. KRU
9. EG

Tier Gap

10. FURIA
11. MIBR

Nah you need a minimum of 2 wins to qualify

I know this is a bait, but like that's a crazy connection to make lmao.

I'm going to be honest MIBR is getting decimated after the talk kaplan had with SEN. MIBR stand literally 0 chance at winning this game.

Lmao that timing

Zesty Esports is crazy lmao

W blind by sScary though, but Zest is insane.

It's not that hot of a take imo, and I agree, but also saadhak always manages to make LOUD good.

Yes, but only if Zest goes god mode against DRX, otherwise, it's over for them.

I still can't believe Bleed did that bro, so outta pocket.

I mean it's not even just that, it's also that yay is getting so much hate rn. It's not even funny at this point, it's just sad.

Idk why though, he's bringing them so much added engagement. They should want him to be good again, smh.

I hope yay has a therapist bro. He's going to need to need it man.

Yall rewatch games, wtf there's so many new games each season, how tf do y'all have time for that?

I mean tbf KOI did throw. FNC got lucky as hell with that timeout at 3-11.
