no, but you dont get as many dry peek and easy kill form your enemy.

same reason why a smurf can drop 40 bombs every game in bronze but not in radiant

same take as ppl saying mwzera is best player.

they are playing against shit player, of course they can get 300+ACS easy lol

odin to 0, let us have some fun

It looks pretty meh, the blue camo variant literally looks like the $0.04 Urban DDPAT skin from CSGO, it is 'safari mesh' level of skin, but they did threw in a buttlefly knife, so I'm sure a lot will buy the bundle even though they are not convinced by the skins

i agree, too fast making it look a bit janky, if it slows down it will look better

100% guarentee that ppl in redditwill complain it look bad and not as smooth as CSGO

posting cringe post to farm upvote lmao

Ethan is probably the 'best' CSGO player to switch to Valorant, not saying he's average, but he didn't exactly look a class above the top tier Valorant players. Dapr, Sick etc. are washed CSGO player, and they perform just as well (if not better) than Ethan.

The 'ceiling' for good aim in Valorant is lower than CSGO, so say if some aim god switch to valorant, their insane aim will not really get to shine as much as CSGO.

he frag when he needs to, he is not entry why would he top frag? He win clutches when he need to, that's what it matter

setup dont mean how good a player is, if setup means anything then Steel would have been one of the best player in the world

no, Dapr

EMEA is just so random,

you can play the same tournament again right now, and I think the result will be completely different lmao

Do you need some of the COPIUM KEKW KEKW

Both play similar role, both are absolutely cracked

THey also look pretty similar from what I can see from teh limited camera angle

Wouldn't be suprised if they announce that one of Dapr or Nats cant play in Berlin last minute because they turned out to be the same guy lmao

ping diff

how to beat SMB: ask them to play on LAN or equal ping

honestly doesnt look good for EU teams, if they play like this in Berlin, they will get destroyed by NA (and SEN, but that won't be a surprise to anyone)

seeding match, better to hide strat than to win

well it will be like 87-0 NiP at least, dominate at start of the game
we will see if they fall off

people rated them top3 NA when they got Bang and Chet lol

yes, only one performed in LAN so far. More will enter the conversation when they play on LAN in Berlin, but till then TenZ #1

still doesnt change fact coldzera is washed

no tier 1 team should be getting him (unless they are trying to get BR fans support)

wont be suprised lmao,

these high ping fragger will definitely get exposed

EG is like those anime taking out those training weight with potter lmao

washed-zera more like

he hasn't been good for few years

VKS washed KEKW lost to some tier 2 team

Vikings washed KEKW

only 'S' tier in my book is SEN, they are the only team which performed consistently top place across all tournaments.

if this is how the EU team play in Berlin, they got no chance against NA (and SEN especially) lol

It is pretty obvious 1 turk > 5 turk

the less turk there is stronger the team is

every team going to Berlin is a death sentence then, because SEN will knock them out sooner or later

TenZ
ShanZam
Dapr
Sick
Zombs

then Valorant is perfect for u then KEKW

duh???

and I predicted the sun will rise from the east tomorow

Valorant certainly tends to have a fiercer competitive scene than CSGO, where Europe has always been dominant and is the larger player base, what do you guys think about that?

hard to determine. CSGO compeitive scene although dominated by Europe, the top 10 switches fairly often, so there is some unpredictability.
Valorant so far, is SEN show only, you dont know if the Valorant scene will be dominated by one region (or team), and the 'wildcard' like SEA, JP etc. will just fall to obscurity once the dust settles

his opponent is not the strongest though

is like if Leaf consistently drop 30 bomb in NSG tournament, doesnt make him one of the best player in the world

league of legends tournament winning is low despite it being more popular, is only the valve game that has high price pool.

well CS casting is always top notch, Valorant casting is hit and miss

yes I am literally raging right now at your 4*.

good thing the downfall of TSM keeps me sane at night

ok, go to twitter for that ratio crap.

I am here trying to have a discussion, not asking for likes

well I am just worry for long term of the competitive scene.

If it keeps getting low attention and viewership, teams will leave the scene and there will just be less investment towards the game in general

yes true, japan is a good suprise. Just feel let down by EU viewership that is all

the fans dont care how big the prize money is. It is about who is playing

if valve majojr gives the winning team only 10k, there will still be more viewership than a 1m tourney

true, but kinda sad.

as long as competitive CSGO is popular in EU, I dont see Valorant overtaking them in viewership for EU games

I am not counting the sub stream, if you count the substream, ENCE vs Team Spirit has another 50k+ viewers as well

read the post, I am saying it is a good casual streaming game, plenty watch streamers play. But there is not enough competitive interest with how popular this game is

this is not a qualifier, this is Challengers3. Are we really saying everything is qualifier nowadays? Like this 'qualifier' excuse is getting old, there is only 3 real tournament the whole year by your logic, and teams can't expect to sustain if they are getting these 'qualifier' viewership.

That's like saying the whole of premier league is just qualifier for champions league. Absurd

where u getting 80k viewers from?

TL vs ForZe, a game which the team lost will not get to participate in Berlin (high stake game): 25k viewers

ENCE vs Team Spirit: low stake Group stage game: 55k viewers

once again, without SEN (and big NA brand team to some extent like 100T), Valorant competitive viewership is bad.
It is a 'casual' game, you get plenty of streamers playing casually with good views, but for competitive scene, there is just so little interest in team that is not SEN and 100T
