strawberry hate will not be tolerated any longer

bro your English is really good

Strawberries, very versatile fruit especially for desserts, can be used in pies, cakes, turnovers, and basically any other pastries and also by itself or maybe cream

can confirm, using a dot crosshair got me from gold 3 to iron 1

I hope that EU doesn't eventually dominate the game, honestly this NA vs EU rivalry is one of the best things that Valorant has produced. It gets a sort of tribal culture around it with trash talk from both sides, and with the way that Valorant esports is formatted with international matches happening very rarely, every game between the top teams of each region feel that much more important. In CS, it feels like we see every single tournament dominated by the same teams every time and all of them are EU, which could disconnect many viewers, especially from NA and other regions that aren't massive CS powerhouses. In valorant however, the hype built up between these two giants of NA and EU can bring in new fans as they see the hype around these two teams and want to see what's up. Just look at the growth valorant has had since it came out. It has hundred of thousands of people watching damn QUALIFIERS, and unless riot does a tremendous fuck up then these numbers can only get higher as more people get exposed to valorant and the esports scene, and I think the NA vs EU rivalry will contribute heavily to that.

seeing all the old CS guys get back to a LAN again will be fun for me, also, this is such a normie answer but TenZ vs Cned, everyone is hyping them up to be the two top duelists in the world so I wanna see them go at it

been a while since I've seen an actually quality post here, Group A looks like the group of death lol

worlds

aren't like half the teams going to Berlin 1 duelist teams?

I doubt its going to be good on maps like Breeze or Haven that really spread the defense out and make flanking very easy, but maybe on others it could be good

Anyone know how the seeding for the final playoff will be determined? I’m assuming it will be by win deficits

half your team is from Sentinels bro

NA feels like the most top heavy region with Sentinels basically dominating the region and EU feels like it has the most parity, any team can win it if they have a good enough day

whenever SEN wins, all I see on twitter are TenZ fanboys spamming shitty copy pastes and the same "I believe in TenZ supremacy" meme, it gets so tiring especially when you are actually trying to talk to someone about valorant and then some rando comes in spamming "TenZ is better than Asuna cry about it" when everybody knows that already

hello

I like single elim better, it makes every match a real fight for survival instead of having a cushion of the lower bracket, imo the most exciting games of every tournament for me have been lower bracket games, upper bracket games don't have the same excitement because there is a lower bracket they can fall to

They definitely have the talent to be the best in the world, just haven't shown it despite having every chance in the world to do so

Bren Esports winning Berlin?

edit: I tried to reply to someone wtf

insanely hot take bro

I hope to god we don't get a 16 team double elim bracket, just be a normal tournament and go group stages into 8 team single elim bracket

7/8

almost got me defending Sentinels lol

What’s the point of making this a bo5, it’s a meaningless game, they should have made Lower round 3 a bo5

counter

Did you think they were going to beat TSM? Plus through the challengers qualifiers and playoffs beating teams like C9B, GenG, and FaZe and keeping decently competitive series with SEN, and XSET, that's very impressive considering they were thought of as just another Tier 2 team to get washed by the actually good teams in qualifiers

Rise is one of the most inspirational teams this whole challengers cycle, they grinded their way through all the tier 2 events, and when they pulled off a couple of upsets and got the opportunity to play in the challengers main stages, they absolutely overachieved and stayed competitive with many teams that people thought were far superior to them. I hope tehy continue to succeed in the future

I have no idea who is going to win here tbh, both teams are coming into this game at peak performance, and also they might not throw everything on the table considering it's a "SeEdInG gAmE", but 100T hasn't won against SEN since First Strike so there may be some player pride things going on, anyway I'm tentatively going with 100T win here 2-1

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/aa7bba6c 100Thieves will beat Sentinels for the first time since First Strike

they're both really good, the manga is starting a new arc right now, so if you want to catch up to it quickly then read the manga, but the anime is also hilarious with the narrator and the animation, its more of a preference thing. If you have the time I would suggest watching the anime first then reading the entire manga including the part in the anime

Kaguya-sama

I know absolutely zero Filipino valorant players someone help

damn I'm late asf on that lol

I was watching Asuna's stream and he said he heard in a leak that Champions is going to be held in LA is this confirmed? Anyone got a source for this?

I've always hated the idea of superteams, but I guess its inevitable in any competitive game that a team would want the best players possible. Sentinels is just too good of a team right now, so nobody else can compete. With them, and its basically a foregone conclusion that SEN is going to win and everyone else in NA is fighting for 2nd. I also want some type of rivalry or something, the game feels too nice and everyone likes each other. I'm not saying every needs to hate each other, I just want some type of conflict.

I'd rather get talked down to by SEN fans than talked down to by Europeans

I mean that 100T has so much talent but it feels like they always underperform against SEN, haven't exactly been watching that much valorant lately so I could be wrong

as is expected considering he is the igl of arguably the best team in the world

100T winning First Strike

I feel like 100t can beat any team in the world except for Sentinels

SEN should have thrown so we get the Ploo hot tub stream

shut up about TSM for once

true, we need a circuit or tournament series for T1 teams that don't qualify for the big LAN events, its good for the fans and good practice for the players too

cNed skilled player but that is not normally, This very very insane....They need to check him pc and game.....Maybe he not cheating but maybe he using the game deficit ...and this cant seem on game screen..He needs to check-up....Day0s radiant Cheater with Streaming.....I think day0s still cheating...cNed using game deficit on PRO scene ,ON BIG Events.Maybe everyone dont knows him trick.He incredible....I want to ask his where is the comming of your skill's ?

The best Brazil teams would be T2 at best in NA

Imagine Elige in valorant, he'd easily be one of the best duelists in the world

Fans of the most popular 3 orgs (TSM, SEN, and 100T) in NA valorant are 95% delusional

Sentinels fans see their team win 1 LAN and act like the saviors of Valorant

his kit is very underwhelming, skye flashes are better, the only thing he has going for him are his stun stuff, and even then you can still get one tapped if the other guy has good enough aim, the only thing he's good for is countering OPs bc his stun unscopes OPs.

imagine not picking teams on which logo you think is cooler, this is why I think Brimstone Gaming is going to Berlin

isn't Bind in Morocco?
