Meteor and Jawgemo still

Don’t think prime demon1 is ever coming back sadly, but it could be an EG yay situation where he becomes a good player again

Leviatan vs Sentinels Americas Stage 1 2024 group stage repeat, 2-0 dfm

Fumbled the fuck out of the Bangkok trophy
Now it feels like the time for them has passed, with leafs health issues and tejo nerf, maybe I’m underestimating them but they feel like they will continue to finish near the top but not actually win a trophy

Oh we could tell 😂

Jokes aside I hope dfm find smth that work because I feel like they are so flat when someone isn’t having a god performance

I think calling is the issue, there were some bizarre rounds and they still lost 7 rounds with player AVERAGING 2 kills per rounds

I don’t think so, his eyes are always wide open/staring

Who IGLs?

It’s so funny that the specific goood duelist u mentioned also gets adderall accusations

I get that, but deaths are valued too much, especially for duelists
Also, did Jinboong really play better? He had lower adr/acs, and while he only had 2 deaths dfm only lost 1 rounds (vs 7 on icebox), so ofc he won’t have many deaths

I just feel like impact wise it was more of an impressive performance/hard carry. It was a closer map as well, if zeta won 7 rounds map 1, jinboong wouldn’t have 2 deaths, but he wouldn’t have 40 kills either (lower adr)

He didn’t get a kill the last two round btw, was 39-9 in 18 rounds

Meiy had twice the kills in just 6 more rounds and 302 adr. Far more of a hard carry and impressive performance than jinboong, deaths shouldn’t matter that much

If your ignoring context/opposition, it’s a top 1 performance of all time

I think they do need to reduce how much deaths matter still, it’s basically a kd stat at this point
Meiy got 302 adr that shit is incredible

Values deaths wayyyyy too much, does rating account for traded deaths?
Tbf Jinboong did have a 10kd but meiy literally averaged 2 kills a round

“Unproven”
Nats - top 10 player OAT
Keiko - best tier 2 Emea player of the whole year
Patitek - crucial support player who got second at a masters
Kamo - played reasonably well on a shitty KOI team

Other than kamo let’s not pretend that liquid is taking insane risks

This bum is literally the best hard entry of all time who can play every duelist and is very vocal in game

Idk if you can say that this year
It would have to be up there in 24 tho

Don’t punish him with navi
Liquid would be fire since keiko is a good smokes

You must not know about KOI grubinho then

Nah cause buzz crashed out on everyone else too they just edited it out (I’m delusional)

I would genuinely piss myself laughing if this was real but sadly they prolly just scapegoated him

What if in reality, t1 were a fair team and every member of the team got fairly criticized and they didn’t just pick on sylvan, but then they edited it all out and only kept sylvans mistakes and getting criticized to paint him as the villain who had to be dropped? That would the funniest shit of all time.

Yeah autumn isn’t even an analyst, bro just tells his team to shoot better
He ain’t a vibes coach either bro just shits on one player over and over again

As a person of Asian descent, we often get screamed at by our parents. As a result, most of just dissociate when people yell at us/shut down until they stop ranting. This is likely true of many Asian pro players (like sylvan). In fact, this is something Alecks said used to happen with his guys as well, and he has to teach them to take criticism from their elders/authority figures.

Now notice that Alecks, coaching the most frustrating team of all time, regularly slamming his desk and screaming profanities on coach cam, is extremely calm every single time he talks to his players in time outs. He understands that the players are self-critical and are already internally kicking themselves for their misplay. He doesn’t need to admonish them- he just needs to calmly point out where the erred and set them straight.

Compare this with autumn and his behavior with sylvan. The fact that Sylvan got shit when buzz went 36-55 against secret (a series with 2 13-10 losses btw) is criminal.

Another thing is that as a coach he should understand what his players need. Some people need to the harsh criticism that he have sylvan to give them a reality check and motivate them to improve and prove everyone wrong, and other shut down when being yelled at like that (sylvan is the latter type) and listen better to calm, logical advice since they themselves are very self-critical. As a fucking coach he should be aware and understand his players enough to know this.

Avova is just like paura khalil net adverso and Estrella
If ykyk

I genuinely would not be surprised if makos buyout is like half a million plus in usd

Trent is way better with AND without tejo

Nah his stocks will be high, vit is just imploding
Amer is a little bit short on sentinels so he could go to an NA team if he wants, but mibr or some kind of furia rebuild is likely

I’d rather like rossy or someone but they don’t really have many options

I think less will leave, but the other two will stay

Fuck no rather just replace him with Beyn at that point than move flashback out his comfort role

Hey man I don’t judge

I read this as “and bang the ceo of DRX to fire termi”

I guarantee first half haven he was flaming the shit out of him, especially since buzz was playing well

Shadow and bucher

He’s soooooooo good at opening duels/entries
Like his aim is clean enough that he wins them but messy enough that he can deal with unpredictability and chaotic situations ya feel me
Obv geng do a great job supporting him, but he’s got great preaim so he gets instakills and great movement for when he doesn’t hit the first shot

Cryo is severely limited by the fact he can’t play raze/neon, or he’d actually have a trophy and asuna would have been kicked yesterday

Unpopular opinion; like 50% of valorant coaches are paycheck stealers Ngl
Like autumn is particularly bad but i seen too many coaches say some useless bullshit during timeouts

Half the IGLs or valorant players who watch party could give way better advice during timeouts; although they do have a very different view of the game and way more information

I think izu is just a quiet guy, don’t forget he got a lot of criticism last year and just seems a bit more introverted
I wouldn’t flame him too much because of that one whiffs

Their game vs prx honestly wasn’t bad, but a lot of internal shit wrong with this team in terms of the team dynamic and coaching staff

Yeah that kinda of confidence he had lets him perform even despite the pressure of being the goat. I hope he rejoins faze when he’s down to fully being competing again as well that shit would be fire. CS feels a little bit dimmer without him

Why u hating on mako so much dawg I literally saw u posting the same shit in a diff thread

He’s still got it Ngl, prolly was just burnt out from the aftermath of the war and navis struggles
I saw some fpl vods recently and his rifle aim is coming back to his prime

Played with s1mple he knows how to handle egos 😂

I don’t get it either, swear it’s so shit

I was talking about rossy actually

Dantedeus? He’s an upgrade over adverso tho fs
But yeah prolly a little overhyped
