I agree to highest extent. Ash has come a long way since he got signed and can really shoot, but does lack the consistency needed for the Team. They need the Meteor to Texture that they had in the 2024 Team to where you can always count on the both to close out the game, now they just have a single Texture. Foxy9 is close to that consistency but not yet.

That is what I expected, its unfortunate things didn't work I had very high Expectations.

What If GenG kept Yoman.

I'm sure there are reasons why the didn't keep him, but imagine if it worked? Yoman is an experienced IGL, he could have taken so much off of Munchkins shoulders by either taking up the Midrounding or the Micro Managing of players. Yoman had also showed really high peaks mechanically, probably the highest any GenG Initiator has shown. I still remember that 4k on B Site of Split, just to name one of them.

If Yoman had stayed and he peaked along with the Team right now, they would of had a really good chance at winning Toronto and EWC. Its Unfortunate we will never see what that Team could have been like.

Brother thought he could just not respond to me after I said I am Asc3.

S1mon was mid throughout all of his duration in EDG and I can tell you exactly why they won Champions 2024.

#1 Everyone peaked during the later ends of Champions. We never thought Chichoo was good until his popoff in Champs, same thing with Smoggy. The only player that was outrageous internationally before Champions was Zmjkk.

#2 The Meta had barely shifted throughout the Entire Year, making it very easy to find which Composition that is currently in the Meta suits your players the best and then master it using Vods and some of your own Ideas.

You must be wondering why I mentioned Everyone Peaking, Including S1mon. He did, and still was the worst player on the Team. His Utility was good but there is no telling whether or not that was because of him or his teammates calling for it unless we can get some Voice Comms.

There is much better Talent out there that they can grow and become great, he is not the greatest player to touch the game. He decided to sack off his life and let himself go after Champions because of an Ego. EDG are better off without, let it go.

Just got up to Asc 3, what does it matter?

We simply do not know, you cannot assume that because it did not and never will happen.

The fact is that he was never and I mean never standout on the team, worst player on that team my a long shot. He got booted for a reason.

I agree with you to an extent. We do not know whether or not S1mon just had the read for Chichoo or Chichoo asked S1mon to do the stun. I agree his Utility was good but nothing someone better can learn within time.

Regarding it being a team dynamic, its best that S1mon is gone for that reason because its clear everyone on the team got their relationship fractured with him for not putting in the work with them.

Everyone is allowed a poor performance, we are humans.

Slowly is Tyloo's best player. It is like trying to buy Oxy from C9 or Primmie from Talon, the Org won't want them gone.

Exactly. He was also Mid during Champs, never the reason why they were good.

Thank God S1mon is gone.

Genuinely do not know how there are S1mon glazers out there. He was Mid his whole career on EDG and i genuinely cannot fathom how people put this guy in a pedestal as if he is the only reason this team won in the first place, it baffles me.

ZJC did play like shit during EWC, but his debut match in China showed more promise than S1mon ever did and I hope ZJ can bring it up.

It does feel much more like a CS Event, bringing in a different Vibe and I Love it.

I meant to specify it being my favorite of the Three that we have seen this Year, I fixed it!

Definitely My Favorite Event this year so far, maybe it is because we get to see Teams that usually don't get to Internationals play against teams from other regions.

It may not matter the most but I hope we get another next year, with a better schedule for it.

Brother he is one of the only Players who I mainly watch Vods of and he is much better than you are giving him credit for.

Damn, Unlucky. Looking forward to seeing him play again.

I believe Sentinels will win Tomorrow unless DRX bring back Flashback and use their Kickoff Roster.

Is Flashback even their in Saudi for the event? I know they promoted him but is he attending?

Fixing the Cryo Issue
People forget that 100T are letting Cryo play what he wants (To an Extent), so there is a reason why he is not playing Raze and most other Duelists.

If we are letting him play what he wants then there needs to be someone who will be able to play Sentinel and Step up to the Duelist.

-Seven
+Aleksandar

I will never stop defending Alek he is mechanically better than the vast majority of American T1. I would Love to see him get the chance on a Tier 1 Roster.

Nah who is Disliking everything Promoting China on this Forum without even Debating, Crazy bro.

Yuh uh

Cannot forget how they have the Best Production as well.

Not going to Lie, I have gone from not watching VCT China a year ago to looking forward to their matches the most. By far the most competitive region where at this point there are great arguments for many Teams.

EDG, do I really have to explain why they might win VCT China.
Wolves, best Chinese Team in Toronto, they might continue their run.
FPX, bested Wolves, could make them a really good contender. Berlin is back.
XLG, last team to win China, could have a chance at winning if Rarga goes back into Stage 1 form.
BLG, Second Seed going into Toronto, one of the most consistent Org's in China.

You also have Trace and my sleeper pick of the region, Nova. In my mind they are less likely to win but it is still very possible

The Title was a bit of Bait, Pacific is technically the Best Region but in terms of Regional Matchups and the uncertainty of who might win I am giving it to China.

THE GOAT!!!!!!

I guess you decided only to read the thing you can nit pick. I stated I do not know much about Trexx, I only know some of what happened with Derke. I was just voicing a concern and If i can see just a snippet of what Trexx and Derke were saying and get a hint that Trexx might not hold much accountability, says a lot.

So real, I'm ready for it they do not use Logic. The vast majority of them are just band wagoning off of the OG PRX Fans, its quite sad how little they usually know.

One of the WORST Finals. I'm sorry but it was not impressive from PRX or FNATIC regardless of who wouldve won

Every Team left the tournament looking Ass compared to how they looked during their Regionals. PRX and Wolves are the only teams that left looking better than when they came in, It was truly the worst Masters event.

and Crashies has made more Grand Finals than TL ever have.

Not a huge Crashies fan anymore, but a logic fan because your statement made no sense.

crazy work

;-;

Im just calling him ZJ lol, how do you pronounce that even??

Am I the only on that can see Trexx not liking the way Nats IGL's?

To be fair I am not much in tuned to what has been going around online regarding Trexx but from what I have heard I feel like he does not hold much if not any accountability for himself and Nat's makes sure his teammates are held accountable.

He impressed me a lot. He had a rough Second Half on Sunset but the whole team did, everywhere else he fragged a bit over what is expected from him so far. His aim is Snappy and might end up being a Headshot Demon if the near future, looking forward to seeing more of him on EDG.

Genuinely happy that he is on the Roster.

He may have went Negative during Sunset but that was due to the fall of him and his team during the second half, he was snappy when we saw him on the defense and that part of him only carried on more into Corrode.

For it being his first match with a team that comes with a lot of pressure being on, he impressed me. 40 HS% Is what I like to see!

I wonder why they dropped Yoman, I thought he was a major upgrade and a better fit on paper considering his past in being a Leader. Must have been an Internal Issue or because they were not getting any results.

I had imagined them being better than the previous GenG roster once they got their shit together like they did in Toronto, I guess we will never see it happen.

Any News on If Lakia is going anywhere? Leaks?

Thank You because I have been struggling to understand how ACS is counted. Does Damage Done Stack? Like if you were to hit a headshot after 1 or more Bodyshots?

I stated that I am higher on everything, that includes having First Bloods and in this case I am doubling their First Bloods.

Whenever I get out of a game and check the leaderboard at the end Riot always manages to put me lower than I reasonably should. I could go Place Under someone going Negative that is statistically worse in every stat shown other than ACS. Am I getting less ACS because my HS% Is just higher giving me less points, I don't know if that when you hit a body shot, then a headshot does the Body shot Counter get override or if it stacks?

I Hope I am not the only person with this Issue because even If I am winning I don't want my MMR and Placements to get fucked up because of a flawed system.

Out of the Dozens of times I have Q'd Corrode today there have been many people complaining that they think the map is terrible. I ask them

"What makes the map so bad"

Over 90% of the time they say it is because there are "Way too many corners".

Which seems like horse shit to me because the major criticism among the community has been that on Valorant Maps there are minimal places to play and not get killed in after the utter util spam of the site. Now we are complaining about the thing we wished for?

The Community cant choose what they want can they.

Do people actually believe the Teams wont try and Win? To me it sounds like serious Copium if a team just looses. The Money should be a massive motivator.

More of a Jett Map than Raze, horrid for Double Satchels.

Fade 10000%.

I believe Jett would have a high pick rate on this Map.

Sentinel can be flip flopped

Probably Double Initiator.

I feel as if it will be Attacker Sided, but a few slight changes will make it a lot more even.

Maybe the Bend Side, Long Side? Whatever it will be called can be spammable but surely not all the way from Main.

Surely they fortify the walls eventually, there is no way they are going to allow Odin Spam to that degree.

Fair, Thanks for baring with me lmoa.

Im still lost. I wasnt here all day and its late. Did they state this in an Interview? My bad.

Why are people saying this? Is it just a prediction considering they have the veto advantage.

The Title is a bit of Bait, I'm not Bias but I must point out this.

PRX have only ever had an upper bracket run going into the finals, yet lost both times. Third Times the Charm or will the curse continue?

5 Times, disregarding 2021 I don't remember.

But here is another question, Has PRX ever won after an upper bracket run? Just saying.
