It looks like they have finally figured out how to play this meta, do we see them going far in playoffs potentially making masters or was this a one off game?

You eliminated us :(

BBL is struggling because of meta changes and role issues which is not the case for Eternal Fire since they don’t have two one tricks on their team like BBL did.

Izzy can pretty much play any entry duelist and favian can play both duelist and support

Turkey gets their own sub region starting next year only playing against each other in playoffs so I don’t think so

As a Turk yourself you should know that these newer Turkish teams don’t really feel that much pressure no matter who they play against at whatever stage until someone can actually break their ego which doesn’t seem to be the case for Eternal Fire

And what makes you say that? They almost 2-0’d fnatic,2-0’d bbl and vitality with in ease which not even fnatic could

Turkish izzy glazer and doesn’t even have ef in his top 4 how does this happen

His English was never the issue it was his buyout

Look I won’t discuss if the ban is right or wrong but how does canzerra get hwid banned for 12 months but Sick a self admitted pedofile is still allowed to play Valorant and monetize his gameplay through his streams?

Sure but Sick is allowed to stream and play the game which he still doing to this day and making money from it

I think unfortunately this is a habit that many Turkish players have from playing the game on 50 ping and being forced to swing angles. I see ech0 fixing this issue with time

Is it far fetched to say mechanically he is top 3 in Emea?

Zaten bu saydığın oyuncuları bir araya toplamak imkansız gibi bişey o yüzden uzun zaman sonra kurulduğunda süper takıma en yakın olan türk kadro dedim.

Benim gözümde sadece bir Türk süper kadrosu var oda 2021 de SMB

Liquid will somehow find a way to make internationals again just to get grouped lol. I mean the last time they won more than a single game in a international tournament was in 2022 which is actually insane

Except Liquid wasn’t hit with a meta change that completely changed the way they approach maps

Because EU teams pay more than Turkish teams do. It makes way more sense financially to play for a European team like Navi or Heretics over a team like BBL or FUT (FUT has been getting their money up recently tho)

Yeah but it wasn’t even sociablee who said this. Also sociablee is good friends with ruxic I don’t think he would want his friend to get slandered like that for no reason

Idk I feel the same as you do but the FUT players were calling Navi shit

Hence why I said closest thing to a Turkish superteam. We will unfortunately never see a Turkish team with the people you mentioned all together since that team would probably be too much money for a Turkish org to create

They seemed pretty confident that they would finish first in their group during the post match interview so I will trust that they have some assurance to their claims going forward. Also they said Navi are the worst team in the group 😭

To look the way FUT did with a new igl + coach in only 2 weeks time is impressive no matter how bad M8 might be right now. Its not like M8 were completely lost either they had some good rounds too

This might be me being biased but sociablee. He is back to igling on a Turkish team now and I was pretty impressed with his calling against M8 considering he has only been on the team for 2 weeks

Also he can bring in valuable firepower to the squad when needed

Hot take but this is the closest we have gotten to a Turkish super team in a long time. Xeus (if he can keep form consistently like in t2),Yetujey,S0pp and Sociablee are all star players in their roles in the Turkish scene. Only exception I would say is Krostaly who is still a good addition to the team

About to show everyone how he made a masters today

I mean it is pretty straightforward, hard to have a connection with a region as an international viewer when there is a massive language barrier. All the other regions operate in English so easier to establish a connection

Waited 4 years for this man to return to VCT

Whatever helps you sleep at night I guess 🤷‍♂️

BBL players like Lar0k have came out saying they don’t care about this rivalry anymore and have bigger goals. Its literally the French fans trying to stir something up

This isn’t a rivalry tho its between starxo and BBL if you want to see real beef look at BBL vs FUT

Knowing the BBL team there is a chance they will because they are that confident in themselves. However I think anyone in BBL’s position will just pick the easiest team they can play against M8 wouldn’t pick BBL either

I thought this beef was settled in Emea when BBL beat M8, no reason to drag it anymore I don’t even think the players themselves care about it as much as the people on this site do.

Starxo talked shit, couldn’t back his talk and got clowned for it and that was it now we are dragging it a bit

No he is hated for calling ULF and BBL players losers during ascension when no one was publicly beefing him or saying anything towards him

“1st seeds are light work” Meanwhile losing to BBL while Marteen was dropping historical performances

Entertaining for sure but M8 isn’t playing to the same level they were in Emea

M8 looks stage nervous this series. Not happy with the level of Valorant I am watching rn

NO WAY!!!

Can y'all stop hating phonk? Seriously, half the time people trash the genre without even understanding what it is. They hear a distorted bassline or a gritty Memphis sample and immediately write it off as noise. But phonk isn’t just a style—it’s a vibe, a whole culture rooted in underground hip-hop, street racing, and raw emotion. It’s the soundtrack of rebellion, of late nights drifting through neon-lit streets, of headphones blasting while the world fades away. From classic phonk with its lo-fi, eerie aesthetic to drift phonk with its aggressive energy, there's variety and depth if you take a second to actually listen. Artists pour their soul into this music, blending nostalgia, grit, and adrenaline into something that's more than just sound—it's atmosphere. Dismissing it just because it doesn't sound like chart-toppers or your favorite genre is lazy. Music is meant to challenge, to evoke, to make you feel something real, even if it’s dark or chaotic. And phonk does exactly that. So before you keep riding the hate train, maybe dive a little deeper into the scene. Watch a drift montage synced to KSLV Noh or DVRST and feel the momentum. Because let’s be real—you can't hate something you don't know💀.

Think about it, your deep into a round its a 3v2 you and your teammate are left in a clutch situation as the enemy team starts pushing towards you, you have two choices, fight them with all your might or as the title suggests cuck max and watch as your teammate attempts a 3v1. Personally I choose the second option as watching my teammate attempt a clutch and give him moral support while he does so is one of the most rewarding feelings ever. It’s like I can feel as he presses down on his mouse and gets the kills.

Is it just me who feels this way or is cuckmaxing the way to go in Valorant?

Masters O’block next

This is my first post about starxo lmao I don’t know what other people were talking about Im not a chronic vlr user

He is the one who is talking about the game still

“First bo5 could be easy 3-0 if i was myself. ” Like whats the point of saying this publicly? Yeah the first 3 maps were really close but it wasn’t only M8 throwing advantage rounds BBL threw so many rounds as well, at the end of the day M8 lost so there is no point disrespecting your opponents now that you qualified to a international.

And this isn’t the first time Starxo posts something like this, he posted some unnecessary cope after getting knocked out of ascension as well.

Then he goes and complains about toxicity on twitter when he is the one who starts it in the first place. Starxo used to be one of my favourite players but I have lost so much respect for him over the years because of this attitude

Im not the one coping, maybe get off vlr for a bit and do something else

No one was encouraging death threats you idiot stop crying cause Starxo talked shit and couldn’t back his talk

Don’t want to hear Valorant takes from a person that lives in a country where Donald Trump was elected as the president

We have seen Fnatic lose to Turkish teams before even in dominating fashion sometimes but I have never seen Fnatic get completely outplayed in a map against a Turkish team like this before. Like on Haven there was both a aim diff and a strategy diff which Fnatic had no answer to

He was mid because his team was not enabling him. Don’t get me wrong Xeus definitely needs to improve his decision making but like even yesterday they would send xeus into site alone with basically no utility to help him

He has been underperforming since last year idk what happened to him

I don’t know how they managed to downgrade from atakaptan and qraxs when there were so many options in Turkey they could have chosen from. The only positive in this team is Xeus and even his talents are being wasted by playing on such a disorganised team I hope FUT eventually realise that a 4th season of mrfalin igl isn’t going to work out the way they intended

Thats why you take away vlr from them. Its like a modern day aversion therapy
