HE TOOK DOWN ACCESS TO THE DOCS NOOOOO HOW WILL I KNOW WHERE ICEBOX IS LOCATED NOW??????

edg? trash
trace? trash
blg? trash

drg?......... drg kinda good.............

he heated up so much after halftime goddamn something like 1/8 to 18/12 is crazy

that pearl was rough but I'm never counting out a team with 2 ex EG players on fracture

yeah but if 100T had won kuruk is saying that EG would've ran though LCQ like it was nothing

beautiful strat sent natank just to die and play post plat util thats hilarious

Last year:
We play 2-1 Valorant. Salt of the earth, punch the clock, consistent 1-map loss. We lose a map, guess what? We'll win 2, too. But don't get too excited. A few wins in a row, these guys will balance it out by dropping a map. That's my 2024 DRX. A good, honest 2-1 Valorant team.

Now, BuZz leaves DRX and they start winning 2-0, while T1 has gone 2-1 every match they've played this year. I don't think it was 2-1 DRX, it was just 2-1 BuZz.

just realized this was a 10 flag game :D

I think you're confusing yoru+duelist with double duelist

Yoru plays very differently from all the other duelists, it's so different from playing something like raze jett where you're just double diving, instead you're using yoru as a psuedo initiator and like he's a ghost agent on both sites. Very powerful, but fundamentally different from other double duelist comps

According to him in the post-match interview, he isn't a high management IGL, but the whole team does mid round calling with Sayf being the head voice and making the wider decisions, which sounds like a great solution to the new IGL problem - just have all you experienced players make smaller calls as a group while sticking to the larger plan Sayf provides

bulky lettuce?

apeks has at least won a map and had close losses, 2g has gotten blown out every time they play, apk clears 2g

saw too many people calling them 2025's NRG but sayf can IGL much better than ethan and the team works as a unit infinitely better than 2024 NRG did

and yet still shorter than m4's doc lmao

Well yeah in theory, but last year madrid had only 4 or 5 good teams whereas both cn teams, team heretics, and loud all looked pretty dull leading to games like the 26-5 during loud vs EDG
This year looks like the average power of all 8 teams is so much higher and I'm hugely excited

Not too hot of a take but i wanted to throw it out there
If Bangkok has the 8 teams it's looking like will make it (G2, NRG/Sen, TH, Vit, DRX, T1/PRX, EDG, TE) then there won't be a bad game all tournament every matchup will be hype

thorns are genuinely so strong people sleep on them heavily

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

:GIGACHAD:

i tuned in last night just to hear them talking about "the chief gooner"

fl1pzjder had a 0 kill game (that he still won) where he had a 0.33 rating how do you even get under 0.1

the crazy thing is I think click is a really good player, he just ate shit that map frfr

Does anyone else see v1c's model? Shit is glitching like crazy

damn I didn't realize going 1-2 with one dominant map and one competitive map against a 2 time international grand finalist was fraud behavior
if you asked me I'd say m8 played pretty well, they were just going up against one of the best teams in the world and still held their own decently well, but what do I know

dread it, run from it, loud v sen arrives all the same

he's so good
everyone looks at sayf and derke and less on vitality but trexx gets slept on hard he's the secret component

those also do look like bangers ngl

still this game was peak

i mean for the rest of the month - are there gonna be any kickoff games in the next few weeks as good as this one?

0/8

this is fucking cinema is there even gonna be another match this good?

he's cleared the first step of having solid IGLing which is the hardest part imo

not amazing rn but its successful enough to where he'll get better with time

trexx use your dart man :(

abyss is a pretty attacker sided comp so getting the spike down is easier

you have so many agents who can just deny defuse over and over again, so they're leaning heavy into that, the real test is VIT's defense

i think as long as drg can keep bind out of traces pool they’ll do pretty good, 2-1 drg

THATS WHAT WE WERE PROMISED

batu hasn't even played yet dawg

if they do well this year i could see them getting chosen to join franchise when riot reevaluates contracts

kangkang as well, zekken still 4th though (i think he was just slightly better than derke)

i think with time he'll be good, he provides really analytical thinking - but right now it sounds a fair bit tired

goonerx my goats

giants went to champs 23 for a reason after all
that reason? cloud.

chamber vyse is fucking wild might just be for kickoff or because vakk is playing but still

everyone talking about how him and lewn are playing, but can we talk about his hair?
bro is literally so majestic wtf

raze and brim are necessary
tejo is gonna be really good on bind later this year but probably won't see too much at kickoff
then take two of viper/deadlock/gekko/fade/skye choosing at least 1 initiator (i personally would go viper & fade/skye)

scrims mean nothing, for all we know they could be practicing eco rounds defending b site on split every round
don't take it too seriously

this is insanely well done, congrats on completing it!!

tiktok especially is fucking disgusting any highlight clip of hers will be full of super passive aggressive comments going "man his aim is so good :)" and attacking anyone who uses "her" it's gross

no those are streaks
snap score is how many snaps someone has sent + received

exams will be finished in like 1 week just tell yourself that valorant is a reward for finishing your last final
