There’s a reason why all the teams with lots of streamers are popular and considered exciting 😂

Ig its just me that enjoys watching g2’s play style, I’ve never understood why they get a boring rep, since they have had even before tejo meta

Genuinely I think it’s because they don’t really have many streamers on their team

He was g2’s stand out player other than the finals, that’s not really choking imo

Tbf t1 also have amazing util

Except g2 won a bunch of clutches and close scenarios….
Haven’t seen people cry about team being good at the game this hard since yay was getting crosshair placement abuser accusations

Mibr placed 3rd in Kickoff

I have a feeling that som fns and Ethan don’t mesh well with a lot of people since they are cliquey outside the game

Havoc caught a stray for no reason 😭

Waylay is basically Jett but better against vyse, so good idea from him

Big fan of leaf since 2021

I believe in the sauce, 3/3 for pick’em’s this week

Imma go wit mibr 2-1 g2

Poor dude had to be compared to prime pancada for an entire year while trying to learn a new role. finally started putting up mvp level performances on smokes on 2024, then immediately got booted off smokes as soon as pancada rejoined, justice for tuyz man

Mibr 2-1 g2
Final boss and nonchalant king get it done today

G2 clearly improved after dropping icy u fucking moron 😂😂😂😂 what are you talking about, I didn’t say they were terrible with icy

Ardiis is a pro player and a radiant, he understands valorant and the pro scene better than you do
Sayf is on initiator and is igling, ofc his individual performance is gonna struggle, but if he played duelist he could be a top 5 player easily
Your calling him the worst player on his team off stats when he is off role and calling

Idk bro I think ardiis knows valorant a lot better than toph
Icy held g2 back extremely hard as we can see g2 improvement once they got rid of him, and it was only possible because g2 are a very coordinated team with great map pool and fantastic teamwork, all of which sen lack

I didn’t say he went double negative every series, I said he did go double negative multiple times, had multiple poor performances, and barely had any standout games
By your logic, there was no reason for him to stay on the team
Whatever man no point in discussing, I’ve looked at some of your previous posts and ur clearly a bit delusional

What are you on about? In 2023, tenz went negative in like 6 series and went positive in 4 the entire fucking year
He literally had like 3 matches where he played well, and sacy played ever worse

Also if you kick narrate, replace him with a top tier initiator player
Not fucking redux

Saadhak you think your slick huh?

What did narrate says that was racist

Ones a duelist and the others an initiator right? He had plenty of mid or meh performances and had pretty bad decision making, but sen understood the quality of a player and stuck it out

He had like one good map in some sen invitational or smth so now he’s Jesus

They just don’t seem to understand that reduxx isn’t this mythical savior, if your booting narrate at least get an actually good player to replace him

Brother every single player has fucked up their util at some point, I can remember times where sacy died first for no reason or died with his ult out

Tenz had a lot of really poor performances in 2023 on duelist where he would go double negative, and was overall just mid, just like narrate rn

Sacy and tenz had a whole year on sen where they were shit no?

Yeah 😂😂😂😂 I’m trying to hear his logic

Also why are you assuming that redux can improve but narrate can’t?

Should I bring up one maps where redux played poorly in TIER 2 and use it to paint him as a horrible player?

With ur logic, tenz and sacy shoulda been kicked after 2023. Clearly you don’t seem to understand that we see like a fraction of the time sen play valorant compared to hundreds of hours of scrims, where perhaps narrate is playing very well on those roles. Ultimately, to say narrate is at fault when sen threw like 5 clutches is a pretty stupid narrative
I’m also very curious why you think narrate is so bad at comma and util, and don’t fucking bring up shock darts that’s literally sovas least useful piece of util

Also I will eat a shoe if redux is a better fragger than narrate tbh

Sacy went 4-17 on skye at some point last year btw. Sen got literally grouped in stage 1 regionals last year, stop being reactionary for the love of god
My point still stands, we don’t know that this roster would have stayed good with tenz and sacy

Ardiis has addressed things like this before
If you want to be a good tier 1 player you need to dominate in tier 2
If your putting up redux levels performances in tier 2, your going to be mid or just bad in tier 1
So explain why redux should play duelistnpver Zekken

You can’t double duelist every map, so redux needs to play something other than duelist, or get Zekken off duelist completely

Both are bad options, since reduxx isn’t good enough in tier 2 to be a good tier 1 duelist, Zekken is better than redux at every role he plays

How do you know narrates mental is bad? Fns is a whiny bitch in ranked but is calm and productive in matches

Geng fell off, heretics fell off, fnc fell off, but yeah tenz and sacy who got grouped regionally would be destroying these bums, fuck narrate and bang

Stop being reactionary and hating on the new roster
This tenz and sacy nostalgia is annoying as fuck, sen had both tenz and sacy in 2023 and did absofucking lutely nothing, since their system wasn’t working
Once they figured out role and igl problem, everything started gelling together
Such a disloyal fan base, stop hating on ur own players for everything, you don’t even know if the tenz and sacy roster would still be good today

What do you think about his entry makes it harder to work around compared to other duelists?

Likely also the reason why more passive duelists like Aspas are so consistent

On the flip side though you have derke whose super aggressive and is great regionally and internationally, but he’s prolly also just better than kk

That’s funny as fuck if that’s the reason why
Maybe playing worse competition favors aggressive players like you said, the way prx players are always top of the stats in regionals

Yeah obviously because he’s facing stronger competition, I meant that he goes from being the best player on his team by a wide margin to the 2nd m/3rd best

He doesn’t tend to fall off, but he’s not clearly the best players on his team like he is regionally
Chichoo is the better off the two internationally

Ah yeah I can see that
I was maybe wondering if their was a difference in the way edg sets him up regionally vs internationally, considering this ain’t something you usually see from other star duelists

I don’t think adding a mid player is going to be a good investment
Also, what does reduxx play on raze maps?

Also why do u think narrate sucks on sova

Chichoo is generally edgs best player internationally
Smoggy as well is comparably to KK at times internationally

How come KK is so dominant regionally (like perma top frag) but seems to fall off a bit internationally?
Maybe my goat chichoo just doesn’t try in China

Player’s skill has nothing to do with where their team places and everything to do with their individual skill
Idk who ur talking about but as a individual they were prolly great even tho their team was mid

Zekken is a good sova and an okay Skye
That’s it
His breach is horrible, we don’t know his fade etc
Also reduxx will not be a good tier 1 duelist I can PROMISE you

People saying this don’t know ball, reduxx is way less skilled than narrate and doesn’t even play initiator, reduxx is literally not even the best player on his team in t2
If you want a good tier 1 player they need to be absolutely dominant in tier 2(like how mada and verno were literally the best tier 2 players in their whole region)

I genuinely think there’s something about this sentinels initiator role that’s cursed, sacy too started playing worse (fragging wise) when he joined sen when we all know his caliber of player

That’s because the way icebox (especially a site) is designed, flash initiators aren’t as impactful, there are comps on icebox with no flash init that aren’t viper harbor comps

But on most viper harbor maps u need some flash util, so running a solo recon init isn’t worth it (especially since Tejo is making double init very op right now)

Suck is mostly used in post plant, the stun has some creative usage but for the most part ur just placing down normal smokes like any other controller

With harbor, you can make creative walls that create new angles, use the cascade to take and hold space while defaulting, use the cove as well for planting/defusing or even as a smoke to cross etc etc
Definitely more creative

I don’t think the viper nerfs are a big deal, but that Skye nerf is massive
At best, we can see a harbor viper with gekko but he’s just so much weaker than prime skye
