Well the reason why the point and click smokes are important is because of how much faster the pace on Fracture is. Also the big thing about three smokes is that Brim can shut down all the important chokes when executing on one of the sites unlike the other controllers. There is a reason why Astra isn't used by any team on Fracture and why BBL eventually went back to using Brimstone after having a terrible record while playing Astra.

Blue otter no hacks no wins I guess

Since when did he switch to polish flag and why??????

I don't know but I think he needs to do it soon

Okay maybe Sean Gares was on to something about this team. The other stuff was pretty speculative, but this is the 4th flawless by MU.

Here's the tweet

I forgot when but Sen released a statement about it on X when they started Cubert Academy

Well that not the case with Sen, Rob Moore made all their buyouts really low so tier 1 team can pick them up pretty easily.

Apparently you're a Sen fan now KGad03

I mean a bunch of teams are still playing breach and I think that Kayo is probably better so I think a team could make it work. Also his skye is pretty good.

I actually like the Lotus Kayo pick too it looks surprisingly good. I don't know if that's just Nismo being really good at kayo though.

If only XLG and T1 had someone like that

WU, SRB, maybe NBG with sonofcar

Do you think that Nismo would be better for Sen than Johnqt? Like I know John probably calls better and has potential to frag more, but Nismo is much better at initiator and is a pretty heavy fragger himself.

Edit: Didn't realize that Kyu was the IGL not Nismo, so nvm I guess. But Satellite looks like he's gotten a lot better at Senti and if he continues like this Zellsis might actually be replaced.

Sadly Kru is a permanent top 4 placement in Stage 2 and own a permanent spot at champs

I feel like recently Sen haters have been more annoying than most Sen fans, at least on VLR. The hate just feels so forced and repetitive at this point. Also, its kind of annoying when a user with a Sen flair writes an opinion/comment and another user doesn't agree with it so they just say flair or 13-1 instead of actually giving any valid argument.

Don't get me wrong though, there are still some Sen fans that rage bait or are actually delusional and unbearable and should be hated, but every team has those fans, Sen just has a larger volume of those fans.

He should have to change his name as one of his punishments sharing a name with one of the best Chinese talents is something he shouldn't have.

I don't think I've seen a match where sylvan has had less than 20 assists. Also he put up an incredible number of assist during Bangkok, like 80 assist in the lower final against EDG is crazy especially when it only went to 4 maps not the full 5.

No way stax was flaming Sylvan when Sylvan would have at least had the decency to get a decent number of assists even during a bad performance. Like how are you playing sova and fade and only having 10 assist while also having the least kills and almost the most deaths on your team. Maybe Stax is the problem.

I mean the talent is there, its just the mental, strats and coaching that are suspect

Sylvan would probably have like 30+ assist too

Marved- The True Goat
Vo0kashu- DRG's Raid Boss
c0m- The Flank Gamer/The OT weapon saver

He's good at developing talent, but he's terrible at using that talent to its fullest potential and getting results with said talent

Why did T1 think releasing this was a good idea? Like did they think people would just ignore Sylvan getting flamed and scapegoated at every opportunity or that people would ignore the coaches incompetence? I mean I guess it was good in that the public got to see how Sylvan was being treated and how bad autumn actually is, but the fact that T1 management saw no problem in this is concerning.

So I guess the second option is the only way and I doubt that will ever actually happen

Money or the very impossible chance of 2G placing higher then them at champs and then G2 losing in the ascension tournament

I mean Icebox isn't a terrible map, but its just an incredibly boring map to watch and unless you're watching a Team like ENVY or a crazy/troll comp like DRG's comp its a bad viewing experience.

I mean its kind of the same thing with EMEA and Astra before Astra was buffed, they were trying to make the agent work even though there were better smokes and only now are being rewarded for it because Astra got buffed.

I mean the reason Brimstone is better though is because he has 3 smokes which is very important especially on site execs or retakes, his ult is better specifically on fracture because you can basically an entire plant site, and his smokes don't require anything to be placed before, its just point and click on a tablet.

Okay I fixed it now it should be the KC BBL Fracture

I don't think there's someone who likes it except maybe GenG

I don't think this counts, but this Ascent had some interesting roles from Sen:

Also this game both teams were running Astra on Fracture also KC were playing Jett on Fracture

https://www.vlr.gg/459827/bbl-esports-vs-karmine-corp-champions-tour-2025-emea-stage-1-w1/?game=207152&tab=overview
The Astra's ended up top fragging, but in terms of gameplay it was actually trolling to pick astra over brim

Edit: I put the wrong link for the second one

You forgot to include Sen and Kru in teams 100T loses to. Also Burger Boyz placed 3rd during stage 2, so I don't know why you're acting like Burger Boyz are the worst team in NA Challengers.

I hate Team Heretics, and I hate that now that they won EWC all their fans are going to use that as if its as good as an actual masters or champs trophy when its not. And I hate that now their fans will defend their Toronto performance on them facing the top teams even though you could see they were playing very poorly and probably would have lost to almost every other team at the event besides MIBR.

Also I don't like patitek, I hate that sometimes he'll start shouting at the other team even when he's at like 4/14 and has the least impact in the server.

Johnqt instalock Clove on every map

Don't disrespect Marved like that he's the goat and best player VCT has ever seen

This might have been the worst corrode I've seen played so far, like SRG on their attack side were hardly defaulting and didn't draw out almost any util. They were just having 1 player explore mid and the opposite site and then still committing to the site they started at without any info. Also they weren't trading almost at all.

It feels like the only reason they've gotten any rounds is because of hero plays.

For number 1, I think its more of a disconnect of aggression rather than not having another aggressive player because almost every Sen player wants to play aggressive. The difference is when they want to play aggressive, like Zekken wants to take first contact, while n4rrate wants to wait until they or the other team exec on a site and other stuff like that and pretty much all the players are doing it.

First EG didn't have the easier bracket, they had to start from the lower bracket with elimination hanging over them at all times. Second EG beat Kru who easily beat 100T in the group stage. Third 100T had a lot of opportunities to do better but didn't.

There is no point in giving 100T the benefit of the doubt when every time they are given it they prove they don't deserve it.

Not really, EG performed better in stage 1 playoffs than 100T and the EWC qualifiers were nowhere near the level of stage 1 playoffs.

The EWC qualifiers were definitely mickey mouse, MIBR were preparing for Toronto, a bunch of teams were playing with subs or brand new players, and it was on the pre nerf tejo patch.

Also bo1s are mickey mouse, because then if a team are really good at a map and get that map they are basically guaranteed a win even if the other team would most likely win if there were three maps.

I feel like Koi and Navi could potentially switch places in the future but I think your list is good

This is going to be the only trophy EMEA gets for the next 5 years sadly, and all the EMEA fans will call this tournament legit even though its an obvious mickey mouse

I mean the community can want more 3rd tournaments and it still be a mickey mouse tournament. But what made EWC mickey mouse is that it was using the old map pool, qualifiers were on the tejo meta patch and many of the teams either played with subs or didn't try that hard, single elim playoffs and then two teams had subs during the swiss, and a lot more. That's why EWC is mickey mouse, not because its a 3rd party tournament.

0/8

They should just buy sheriffs for the rest of the game

If they could then they would be at the tournament

KRU is literally farmed by the exact same teams you're making fun of

Classic EMEA
