2026 Champs already confirmed to be in China.

Peking Duck

W timezone.

DRX gave him plenty of chances
GenG gave him multiple chances
How many chances does he get?

Governor reveal in interview, before he joined Talon, Governor was invited by munchkin to trial for GenG but when he told Munchkin that he can't speak good korean to comms GenG stopped talking to him.

VCT CN (weibo) does release some content: https://x.com/wanshunzhi/status/1891487545197723909

Last 2 days or so found some TH twitter showing content around the station with promotional masters bangkok.
Saw another TH video of getting to the arena
Saw another TH video of the shopping mall, floor 5 going lift to UOB Live venue.

From local asia scene there has been some, but from official english not so much.
Also saw a fan twitter yesterday from a tuk-tuks showing leaf with a riot staff filming.
So They're still filming promotion as team only arrive in Thailand 24-48 hours ago.

Game is F2P friendly in a way they give you so many rewards, tickets, pulls, materials, gold etc very often.
Don’t expect to be able to do specific late game content (recent hard mode WOBL) as F2P, extremely challenging.
Community likes challenging content, so dev often give difficult content but eventually nerf them afterwards after a month or so.
Goto Ryuji will be on the next upcoming banner.

haven't read the manga, but did get spoiler cause I play Solo Levelling Arise gacha game and the story from the game pre much gives me that the anime is very quick pace, deathnote level progress. I want to enjoy more about the stats/weapon/ other character story, but the anime is EXTREMELY progress heavy. I'd read the manga first.

So top 2 is 1 Asia/cn team and 1 EMEA team. Always put Americas team 3rd. Got it.

SCARZ Absolute -> Absolute -> Absolute Jupiter -> ZETA

Laz/Crow/Barce/Takej/Reita made the right call.

Trexx and Derke were the two highest rated players at champions

EDG won champs with same roster. EDG is the super team. People just doubt EDG cause it doesn’t follow the English speaking western team narrative.

If they're the best team, the shouldn't have lost to VIT. They're EMEA 2nd seed. So NO.

its just a concern cause if rossy does get brought in to help mid rounding/2nd caller to kinggg there might be possible c9 response from demon1 cause rossy is the new guy coming in. Judging from the reply itopata have a firm control of this team unlike immi. Helps explain natanK departure reason.

Rossy's positive attitude gonna annoy the heck out of demon1. I can see some banter becomes conflict unless kiNgg and Itopata steps in. Hope those 2 personality can somehow work so they can return to international stage.

• The King's Avatar (Quanzhi Gaoshou) - Its about esport
• Made in Abyss
• Monster (74 ep) - if you have time

Can you update your MAL first? says u last watch anime July 2024. Surely u watch some anime since then. Go anime tab -> seasonal anime and add the ones you watched.

Derke won by 1pt, with bren putting KangKang 7th change top 2.

So… from the looks of it, EDG vs VIT final then.

finally mint and suzu on same team.

its a "not for sale" 1 in 10 collective acrylic stand. Meaning you can't even buy it in the pop up store. Apparently its exclusive to SEA, I found an EBAY listing for $50.

The item only distributed to the 1st 20 people of each day. The mall only receive 200 of those according to the mall staff. I got the armoured titan one.

Suzu Moco Fennel GC
Rip ZETA GC.

Korea wins

Watch AOT The Last Attack in expensive seat in cinema.
Apparently They have a pop up place that collab with the mall to give away free AOT item after watching the movie.
They refuse to give me the free item unless I sign up with the mall app etc
Used protonmail for it, they got annoyed cause I didn't use "normal" email site to sign up.
Had Karon complaining moment, drag Cinema supervisor and the mall staff cause they didn't give me free stuff
Got my free stuff after 45mins of arguing + don't even have to sign up on their app.
Caught traffic on way home 3/10
Movie essentially both episode of Final Season - The Final Chapters + post credit scene 8/10

that reasoning can apply to any1. Demon1 reasoning is he's 1 season wonder and now he's being averaged out by competition, no longer a standout.

EDG 2 - 1 TL
DRX 2 - 1 SEN
-------------------------
VIT 2 - 0 T1
G2 2 - 1 TE

The only one complaining about kickoff format is Nadeshot. He's whining teams that made champs gets a bye in kickoff.

Australian. Now I lost my ability to roll my r's.
Over here -> Ova hee-ya

Not the Fedora coach Euler. He probably annoyed the fact JP valorant is gatekept by ZETA (XQQ + 1 foreign coach) and DFM (Melofovia + CR coach Astell/Northernlights). His only chance in Tier 1 is only through ascension.

2 hours 50 mins. damn.

you'll get it on off-season turney.

• Chichoo plays nAts opening game.
• KangKang have the motivation + opportunity to play with his favourite player Derke.
• Muggle and Century warmed up in evolution series.
• Century seen advising/handing out multiple notes to muggle and nobody in EDG vlog and instantly producing haven results.
• Good well earned break from CNY + advantageous time to scout enemy comps + prepare anti strats.
• Players and coaching staff both in great form heading to Bangkok, as the team with shortest flight there.
• Community pre much agreed top 3 teams heading into the tournament.

All great signs for EDG to defend title.

Solo Levelling Arise. Game is SUPER generous with pulls and rewards.

rossyDespair
T1 vs Bleed Breeze 6 hour Techpause.

GenG: -Meteor. RIP pacific valorant.

Self confessed paycheck stealer

FNS: This is my final year competing, lets give it our all
Verno: I don't care bruh, I'm not playing valorant after scrim

this was his last year last 2 months

You fell for classic NA fake hype train and left disappointed. NRG didn’t make a single international in 2024, don’t expect too much lol.

2023 champs timezone was annoying to pacific viewer like myself. The amount of alarm I have to set to wake up/not dozed off is a lot. Had good sleep in 2024 with Shanghai + Seoul.

Just goes to show Verno and Bonkar Tier 2 players/coach. Mada the only one that can hang in tier 1. Rossy been in tier 1 before he should be fine.

Also pros: Saudi is great Timezone, not too early for EMEA, and not too late for Pacific viewers.

f0rsakeN was speaking in Indo.

verno mada bonkar were all overhyped tier 2 players + coach, but mada shows that he's the only one that can hang in the tier 1 ecosystem. There is a good initiator player to replace verno and its rossy. If NRG does sign rossy, daeda is an option, but best available coach right now would be doombros.

U saw the JUVA video didn’t you?

Oh wow you’ve seen 25 Detective Conan movies. Which is your favourite one? Also what episode you’re upto now?

But GenG have a fragging IGL in munchkin, 100T have b0tsi0.

Sideshow not gonna be happy with this one.

EMEA timezone better. Game 1 is closer to midnight, americas are usually 3am.
2025 EMEA times are NOT GOOD since they moved it 2 hours later. 1st game midnight, 2nd game 3am.
Many potential to get dozed off.

T1 never made it out of group stage of any masters/champs + still have map pool issue.
DRX always finish 4th to 6th (consistency)
I’d put EDG on the 16% instead of DRX -> DRX 13% -> T1 9%
