oh well, it's fine then. as you said - let's just wait for the games, lean back and enjoy some good valorant!

You don't need to explain it to me, I watched every single one of his matches and you can probably guess what kinda pain it is to watch him lose and play bad for a certain period of time. I just wanted to say that other people on your list might have had similar periods in which they haven't played well but were overlooked since they never had a really high peak so it didn't really stand out.

It's true that I have a heavy bias towards yay and in my heart he is the greatest. But in my mind he is Top 4 on this list.

Yo simple question, can you read and comprehend what I was saying?

I am excited to see them going up against each other. I actually have a bias towards fnatic because of my boy crashies.
It's not like I wanted to downplay any team or region.

Every players performance would look like a falloff if anyone else had shown us what he had shown us in 2021-2022. All eyes are on him, even now. If you look at anyone the way you look at yay you would notice inconsistencies in every top player. But other top players are overlooked more often than him since he left an impact with his impeccable performance no one else could ever recreate.

I am not debating whether Heretics or G2 are better right now or which scene is more competitive in general. It was just the plain fact that EG isn't as bad as Mr. darklord69 makes them out to be.

It's crazy how you don't mention the player that had the highest peak out of all players in his prime.

EG played well in Playoffs though.

I trust you on that one. You are a GIANTX fan, you know best about losing

he seems less snappy and I noticed that he changed his setup like 90 degrees angled keyboard and stuff. idk maybe he is not feeling comfortable at all rn.

oh okay, I didn't notice that. But let's say Korean pro's are amongst the best aimers. And they definitely average lower HS % than EMEA pros, although they are much better.

HS % isn't all. SK has really good aimers, but the region averages the lowest HS % according to tracker.

had not enough time after the kill

okay that's too much, let's calm down now

i like your name but i have to disagree with your comment

apac on top

800 0.23

you are right, i should definitely play these guns more often

https://tracker.gg/valorant/profile/riot/THNDR%23sbf/overview

organizations: Sentinels, LOUD, FNATIC (would love to put OpTic here too but the other ones are probably more popular by now)

players: TenZ, yay, aspas

Wooting 60He
Logitech G Pro X Superlight
Artisan Zero Soft
Zowie XL2546K

I think the keyboard and the monitor are really good and can step up your game but mouse and mousepad are just personal preference. And I have to say I just got the mouse back then because I was looking for what most pros are using but it didn't help me at all because the shape sucks for my grip

not really, aspas is really disciplined when it comes to mid range to long range fights, almost always bursting

My personal Top 5 would be:

1 - Primordium
2 - Kuronami
3 - Gaia's
4 - Prelude to Chaos
5 - Araxys

well tbh yay wanted to play these agents. i guess he wanted to prove that he can be flexible and play other agents than chamber and jett which unfortunately didn't work out. now you could blame the coach that he didn't interfere but on the other hand according to sscary yay played really well on these agents in scrims. we don't have the insights we would need to really judge yay or the team in general, but there were things going on behind the scenes that weren't right, that's for sure. i hope both yay and the team can bounce back, whatever path they choose.

maybe the endgame gear op1 8k if wired is not an issue for you

I am 24 and stuck in the past hoping one day I will wake up from that terrible dream where OpTic didn't make Franchising.

Deadlock probably Saadhak...he played super smart on that agent.

When it comes to Cypher I think Less is Top 3 too despite his lack of playtime.

aspas is easily the best Jett right now

hey

Real yay fans wouldn't name themselves "number1yayfan" and then shit talk others. You are probably just a hater trying to drag his name through the mud even more. Because as a fan you would know that he is going through a lot of shit right now and therefore have enough empathy not to talk shit about others who are having a hard time, too.

aspas, jawgemo, Victor, Jingg are probably the best Raze players

honorable mentions would be zekken, Zyppan, t3xture, Life, keznit, OXY

Demon1 I think, even though he has had a rough performance on NRG so far

other than him I think the Turkish players in franchising are pretty sharp, especially Alfajer, Wo0t, RieNs and yetujey from what I have seen so far

also I love that aimstyle Less has, really calm and consistent, rarely whiffs

in terms of raze movement him and jingg are untouchable

will probably be played in apac or china for a couple times

184 (800 x 0.23)

this will be a great game, demon1 vs less masterclass incoming

well this was a showmatch with nothing on the line

also woot is still very young and inexperienced so i wouldn't be surprised if his performance wasn't outstanding

but there is no denying his mechanical ability, this guy is a monster and has so much potential to become one of the best

Artisan Hayate Otsu XSoft

It has a medium-fast glide but also really good stopping power

shot_up still has it in him, what a great player

damn that's sad news

Dasnerth is humble compared to this guy, imagine

Ofc aspas is a big loss for LOUD but they still have an excellent core, especially Less who has been - in my opinion - LOUD's best player for a long time. I think they'll do better than people expect them to do because of aspas leaving.

not american, but i believe he was IGLing for TSM

1

oh okay, that makes sense. i was only thinking about the language. then this roster might be the best, but it's hard to say since Russia has a lot of talented players.

no specific order

dan croll - from nowhere
coldplay - clocks
kid cudi - sept. 16
m83 - midnight city
china tiger - with you it's a saturday night
lorde - team
the neighbourhood - sweater weather
steve conte - call me call me (from cowboy bebop)
mac miller - ladders
apashe - rain

friends often tell me i have a weird music taste, feel free to roast me :D

Would be a really good roster, but I believe ANGE1 is a better IGL than Redgar

Honestly the forum is mostly about Valorant as an Esport and we currently go through a break that is (in my opinion) way too long. As a result people started talking about roster rumors but now that most teams are slowly bringing their new teams together people don't have interesting topics to talk about, that's my assumption.

I used to play 10-12 matches average back in the CS:GO times but when Valorant has become my main game about 3 and a half years ago I played less and less by time. I probably average like 50 games per act, 12 so far in this one. Don't get me wrong, I love Valorant just as much as if not even more than I liked CS but I can't really grind it. It's hard to explain but it's a whole lot of small details that add up that makes me not wanna play that much I assume.

W take

Less exists

leaf, Ethan, chronicle, Cloud, Shao, Sayf, Less, Sacy, crashies, Nukkye I think

Both really good mechanically, both really consistent, both really good agent pool

would say leaf has a higher peak and leaf would also be the kind of player who i'd expect to be good at calling in high pressure situations

both are great players and currently top 5 NA players imo
