EG and replace C0M.
Start of EG domination

i thought you were sitting down beside the table. Have you gotten on the table with your PC? What dimensions is your table top, I am looking for a big table like yours.

india?

Went to sleep after game 1 cuz late. 2 MxM 30 bombs and a 16-14.
Is it worth the watch, and if so all of it or just some rounds

If Nivera is opping, he needs to be on a sentinel. Delayed smokes, not full controller util, it's extremely difficult to play op controller, and nigh impossible on attack.

Competetive =/= good

Again, a lot of european countries dont NEED a second language in a DAILY BASIS. You are blaming the lack of care to learn English on someone else and complaining that other countries learn English to help later in life more. European countries can live normal lives only speaking their national language, English is not a necessity

"Americas Beasts"? He is sacrificing and still losing? Sounds like a weak team. It's very understandable that they wouldnt beat EMEA teams, cmon

Then why do you think that other teams players have reached their potentials? And why do you think that they will definitely be better than other players that currently exist, they could be busts

Then why does China learn English? Why does Russia learn English? You are complaing about not being able to interact with other regions because you do not have a common language with them, and then telling me that you shouldnt have to learn a common language. Make it make sense.

You mean the Melser that has a 1.0 rating and a .95 k/d? If thats the star of your team you are presenting to save your argument they might lose to Heretics. The star of the team being a 1.0 rating in a weaker region isnt beating any teams

you didnt present it as a problem, you presented it as an excuse. I am telling you that this is not an excuse because most players go pro at the same age and arent given the same excuse. You didnt really get any points

When ACEND won Champions, they beat; Keyd stars, ENVY (old optic roster), Team Secret (who beat Vikings), Liquid (who beat C9(Who beat VS(DRX), SEN and KRU), and Gambit (who beat KRU (who beat FNC), Vikings and X10).
If FNC losing to SEN counts because SEN players are now bad, then ACEND beating all these teams, who most players are still in T1 Valorant and good players, is definitely counted.

Turkey is not near any primarily English speaking countries. There are 10+ different languages beside them aside from English, which would actually make it harder as Brazil just has to know Portuguese and possibly English. Most countries worldwide also learn a second language, which is most commonly English. Brazil learns Spanish or English normally. This is not an excuse

So you think that Fnatic losing to SEN in the finals of Reykjavic was too long ago to count aswell? And you are going to use this to discredit Gambits win aswell? Will you try this in 6 months to discredit FPX's?

Kru lose to 100%: Fnatic, Navi, Giants, FUT, Vitality, TL
Game is close but KRU lose most likely: BBL, KC, KOI
Game is 50/50: Heretics

Kru are getting dominated and disbanding in EMEA

Not really an exception seeing I provided multiple people. Okay I'll give more. S1mple went pro at 16, alfajer is 17 aswell. Most players go pro at 17/18 and Csgo is the same, everyone is the same as cauanzin. Part of the reason that T1 pros are older ages is because of nepotism and systems already being in place without adding new players you have to teach, coach and integrate

What about teams like TL? are they better now or would they still lose again? KC improved, TL improved, Fnatic and NAVI were always above americas, Vitality, FUT and Giants would beat most Americas teams. I dont see where Americas wins

m0nesy been doing it for years and so many T2 players are that age that deserves a chance in T1 (especially Americas T1: Koalanoob, sym, oxy etc)

your league has lost every game to 2 rookies. if FNC>Loud and Loud>All the other teams in Americas then FNC>Americas.
Karmine corp would be mid table in Americas, you can take Heretics tho, maybe koi

you did this

100%, shes a good example of diversity from just her ability allowing her to be a coach. She shows that women can be coaches if theyre good enough rather than; 1) women should be coaches for representation, regardless of performance. 2) women cant be coaches because women are bad at videogames and stinky.

Jawgemo has been underperforming to be fair to her and bcj situation is a mess. Boostio is ok and ethan has looked poor on some maps. C0m might be the weak link in the team but i didnt keep up with him before so it might be underperformance for his level

(Not disrespectfully) English might not be your first language so you may have misunderstood. I think that Potter shouldnt be slammed for being a bad coach because she is a pretty good one. However she is not top5 in the world at the moment and isnt a coach that everyone should overhype for their strategy and coaching. I think that she is a good representation for women in gaming because it shows a more inclusive side and she isnt there just for diversity points but her talent. She is there because of her own ability, not because shes a girl and she deserves to be there. She just isnt one of the best in the world. It seems unfair to talk about her specifically so much because she lines up with the status quo for coaches and the only reason she is being singled out so much, for good or bad, is because she is a girl.

Realistically EG wont be the ones to pick him up. Orgs with higher budgets and better players but cheeks coaches are more likely.

Yeah thats true, and most of what I was saying. Unless there is a top top tier coach (top5 worldwide), it would be a poor decision to replace.
The money would be better invested in the team and she shows good promise. At the moment she is pretty middle of the pack T1 coach, with great antistratting but potential is there

Lads respectfully can we stop talking about her.
She's a good example of a coach to talk about because she shows opportunity as a woman in gaming. But...
why are we talking about her coaching skills. She is extremely mid. She is not one of the worst coaches and has strengths + weaknesses like antistratting being one of her strong suits. She is also not one of the best coaches, not someone to marvel over for crazy guidance of her players.
Should she be replaced immediately? Many more coaches are much worse than her. Would it be a terrible decision to replace her? If you can find a truly top tier coach it would definitely be worth.
The biggest problem with EG is somehow roster problems, splitting the salaries too much to get a star and not playing BCJ for whatever reason (internal problems or just bad decisions)

Edit: I dont think people understood this properly so I probably did a bad job at explaining. Potter is a good coach, and deserves her spot in T1 valorant. However there is too much conversation about how good she is compared to other just because she is a woman. She is better than most T1 coaches, especially with antistratting but she isnt an example of the best coaching possible. People who say that she is a terrible coach are not always sexist, but some are. People that say she is top3 in the world are not always sexist, but some are. She has great potential, and if achieved she definitely should be in these forums but she is being brought up wayyyyy too much

Soulcas over nukkye? Havent read it all yet but thats an interesting take

Edit: Twisten aswell, he has been poor recently but we know his capability, insane to give vitality big wins early into season

just there he got 100% defense KAST, and was better in each category except deaths than forsaken, yet still much lower VLR Rating. The factors taken into account are very confusing.

The fact that Davai has a higher rating than something is insane. 11 more kills + higher impact when they needed more in that 9-3 choke. It's kind of ridiculous

bro

ik its excluding m80/guard, but realistically most of each team will go t1. If guard win then I can see all m80 being signed, if M80 win then I can see most (idk about net and jonahP, tex might not be above some NA jetts)

U right. Thats gotta be hard on his arm tho, one of the lowest sens ive seen

Extra 20cm/360 so pretty decent difference

Hes .23 800dpi, its on his twitch

I thought leaf was .235 unless he changed it?
Edit: he changed it, u right

I didnt watch the match so it could be really simple. On map 3, how did Ban have a lower rating than xeta and carpe, despite having 11 and 9 more kills than them, especially carpe getting .12 higher rating? Did he just eco frag or were the others just clutch goats or something?

Very nice!👍😄👍! Great success

He does know that this game counts for the league right? He does know that they're trying to win and that he shoot back?

100% give them space to grow, looking hype with huge potential from a mostly untapped market. However...
Please please please, make them change names to something legible. Casting and supporting a player that fell asleep on his desk when they asked them to choose a name is difficult

Yay>D3ffo (havent seen anything on d3ffo in a long time, could be NA publicity, could be a bad fall off)
FNS>Redgar
Crashies>=Sheydos (This one you could say im smoking crack, but off their current records and popoff potentials imma tie it. Sheydos can become him sometimes)
Marved=<Nats (This one isnt smoking the same amount, Nats maybe slightly better rn, but both are still superstars rn. Least falloffs from both teams for each(except chronicle))
Victor<Chronicle (Chronicle is debatably the goat (not mine but has a good case), no-one else in each team other than Yay is and hes has a bad fall off. Chronicle)

Ik its just 1 game but this is most of what we’ve been looking for. Only taking 6 first fights in a long bo3 is crazy tho, he needs to try and get impact earlier in rounds rather than “last player standing”

Confidence is coming back. Hes been down for a long time but there has to be a reason hes been kept on the team this long.

Someone please tell me hes secondary caller or anything else valuable. Hes just whiffing, baiting and giving up space

“Fred”
Or maybe “Brad”

yeah i put "slow start" in the sentence, probably should have made it clear tho, nearly impossible to see it

nah man, fr had no clue. just a bad pun

is that why it got taken down? mb, i didnt see it could be racist just wanted to make the bad "slow start" ability pun that (poorly) fit into NRG
