There's a split opinion between Americas and Pacific's trophy...

But we all know China's the best and EMEA's the worst

Is it just lower and grand finals (final 2 days) or it also includes upper finals (third to last day)?

16 teams swiss stage, 8 double elim bracket

The funniest they can do is 16 teams bo1 round robin stage, each team versus every other 15 teams

I know, im fine with the first draw (TH v DRG) byt when they drew FPX v FUT, im fuming cuz it's not too inter region as we want... would be better if FPX v LEV/T1

Should be 2 v 3

Jinggg

So, this is third, then?

Fake reverse sweep

After PRX reverse sweep DRX in Pacific grand finals last year...

They have the firepower, just lacking STAMINA!!! Pls go on a run or smth, build that stamina... they look so tired after 2.5 maps

Also slowing down the defuse... can also slows down the plant (round timer still counts down normally)

HMMMMMM but she's astral radiant, not space and time radiant/techies

• A throwable object that spawns breakable circular spikes from the floor
• a placeable portal that goes through walls (surface which are wallbangable)
• (E - signature) a stimpak that accelerate the player
• (8 points) A breach/fade-ult wide ultimate that slows down everything in the range such as players, spike timer, molly damage

I'm cooking, am I?

Then let egypt teams win ascension and join in tier 1 next year

Then what do you propose?

Most educated emea fan

One highly possible reason is teams got anti stratted so hard

Bro just gerrymandered the count

Who would've thought?

Thats the thing, its just 1 extra day, im sure they can spare that

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Someone sign this mephisto guy pls

Lets go

i know this is fake when you said d4v41 plays sage...

number of teams is 11 this year, next year the format should be good

cursory check reveals that the number adds up... so i have to accept

bro fr has schizo rn... but if not, she should be impressed with your 4 digits posts count

hehe i believe

amer: https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/f20c383a
cn: https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/b6381267
emea: https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/6789f543

i agree, give it to south na

both have +1 map diif so resolve by round diff

we need new fluke rivalry

we've seen how vlr users calling other teams flukes when they shouldnt have qualified to playoffs and to masters

how about we get all these top teams from each region that you like to glaze so much (maybe like 4 from each region) and have them fight in a tournament? then we can see who's the real deal

both wins and losses are demolitions, you win with large margin, you lose with large margin

have no connection to playoffs... just straight which is better to have/be

off topic but moving on

Winning against stronger teams but losing to weaker teams
or
Losing to stronger teams but winning against weaker teams

by winning 26-12, then it's possible

funny how sen needs to rely on Loud and 100T winning 2-0 to even qualify

Loud can do the funniest thing and win 2-1 to both qualify themself and eliminate Sen

if only there's a "delete post" button

maybe i want to say how they should have unique no-"esports, team, gaming"-in-their-name kinda thing

like how CN teams prefer GAMING instead of TEAM, for example

i know, im too excited for this

Emea: TEAM liquid, TEAM heretics, TEAM vitality, fut ESPORTS, bbl ESPORTS
China: edward GAMING, bilibili GAMING, dragon ranger GAMING, jd GAMING, also alot of ESPORTS
Americas: kru ESPORTS, nrg ESPORTS, g2 ESPORTS
Pacific: TEAM secret, global ESPORTS, talon ESPORTS

something to talk about

(Since no one really cares about this region, and I don't have anything better to do this summer)

NOVA can qualify as Alpha #3 seed by winning 2-0, doesn't matter the round diff. BLG's hope to qualify is that TEC to win a map off NOVA so they can win by map diff.

Trace already qualify, and since there's no difference between playing as #2 or #3 seed (other than next map ban/pick side), eyes are on TEC.

1. If TEC wins 2-0, automatically qualify, need Trace to lose 0-2 and TEC to catch a whopping +41 round diff to even get #2 seed
2. If TEC wins 2-1, need to gain +17 round diff to beat AG (tiebreaker resolves by number of map wins, which TEC has 7 and AG has 6)

and why are you watching apac region again? oh right, cuz memea is too boring for you

Everyone looks at Jinggg and something because they're crazy duelists with great aim
Everyone looks at forsaken because he can flex multiple agents and still be good at it

But d4v41 and mindfreak will always be there clutching up and assisting with utils when we need them the most

Susan-bro

Need to be outaimed or Jinggg will be in front of your face in the first 10 seconds into the round

With Jett Raze, Skye Breach, Omen

Any analysis on who might qualify, and how can they be qualified/eliminated?
