Navy isn't a bad color, but even within it's relative category I'd prefer turquoise or just a nice Aqua, maybe even the basic Dark Blue.

I trust FNS, and that's all the proof I need in life.

You're the type to like kids.

Strongest Navi flair acting like the average discord mod

Fnatic vs Navi showed that Fnatic was far and away the best in their region.

Loud and NRG are clearly better than Navi, and Furia/100T/Sentinels were closer to Navi than I expected (like just under Navi). Liquid looked terrible, Vitality is clearly #3 EMEA. Largely, America's is still better than EMEA.

1. Fnatic
2. Navi
3. Vitality
4. Between Liquid if they decide to play and Fut

bROTHER IS 20

Yeah, I'm still proud of what loud did. I'm so excited for America's league now, Fnatic beat 4 America's teams and all 4 looked about as good as Fnatic vs Navi. Furia and Sentinels gonna fight like DOGS to get 3rd in America's now.

What crowd? They all left.

Strongest Navi flair sounding like the most average discord mod

My Kpop brother, deserves it.

I slipped under the desk to unleash the wettest top of 2023

Fnatic on top

tbh most the America's teams looked better against Fnatic than Navi

I switch sides and that team starts to lose. Switch to Loud at 11-3 to get a comeback and here we are at fnatic win. GG

Answer: Aspas stopped going off. Look at his kills second half. He's gotten 8 deaths WITHOUT GETTING 1 KILL. That's the difference

Chokenatic or the 9-3?

Lets see.

It's 11-3, I can say it. I've never had a team I've cheered for win a championship, while I was cheering for them. I cheered for the falcons to win the superbowl. I've just been chanting copium for Fnatic, and I'd say I threw the correct shit into the air. If Loud lose now, it'd be funny.

America's best region :)

4 K/D LOL

This is both teams weak side, SIGNIFICANTLY weaker side. Loud faced a better opponent, but got half their defensive rounds on pistols. 100T lost more rounds but 100T cooked for Attack side.

When he is needed, BRO SUPPLIES

Yay was close twice PRIOR to the final, then he lost the stats in the final series.

Fnatic's strong side is Defense (won 3 rounds attack w/o pistol win v 100T. Lost 8)
Loud's strong side is Attack (won 4 rounds defense + pistol v DRX. Lost 5)

They can't lose look at the young goat Leo's history, he ALWAYS goes insane on Icebox.

People talk about how whoever wins will have the first 2 time lan champion.

Another cool stat is whichever of them loses will join an elite group of the only the former Optic to be the only people to lose MULTIPLE grand finals.

Please, that'll be too much for Fnatic as an org

Damn, maybe nerve pain? That's a valid excuse honestly, genuinely sucks. I hope t's at least gotten better for him.

What happened to his arm?

Fnatic's strong half was attack. Literally a 10-2. They got enough rounds already.

yessir just chill and watch the shit go down

The dinosaur Mario physically abuses

when listening to Yoshi music. Swear to god this game hits so much harder with the most mellow music in history backing it. Superior viewing experience.

fr gg

Never seen his stream, but all I know is that I compared him to Jimmy falon and he needed a redeming factor because of it.

That was FNS level whiff

Imagine if Jimmy Falon was

a) Funny
b) Dancy
c) twitch streamer

I too have never dropped a map to fnatic.

Thank you Fnatic for facing 4 America's teams so we can base America's ranks (mostly) off how each team did vs Fnatic. Love that from them.

Smart play, I love it.

To be fair though, FNS and Chet are SIGNIFICANTLY better than any other NA IGL. FNS isn't even 1 step ahead, his average is still a few steps above the peak of any other NA IGL.

In your objective opinion, would NRG have done better against Fnatic than Loud has?

I Ain't Reading all that Version: Could Chet counterstrats have done enough for NRG to get more rounds than Loud has gotten vs Fnatic?

Loud and NRG were basically 50:50 in their game, but the key factor that is noticeable in this Loud v Fnatic is how little Loud worked to counter Fnatic. In this hypothetical, we are giving the two best minds in Valorant (Chet and FNS) two weeks to strat based on other teams and Fnatic. I'm not asking if NRG would have won, I don't think they would have, but simply if NRG (mostly with that MASSIVE prep period and meta knowledge) would have done better than Loud has.

Not even bandwagoning, he just looks objectively like the best player in the world. Like, he does things that seem impossible. When Boaster was told to cook, he was making Leo a 5 star meal.

Loud is a lock/in (tee hee)
Lev land NRG are easily number 2 and 3
Sentinels, Furia, 100T could all fight for #4. All had to face Fnatic who look like the MOST prepared team in Lock/in.

I'd say Sentinels have the highest possible peak, but Furia is insane and lead the hunt for #4. 100T don't look as strong as Furia, but don't have the talent of Sentinels, so I'd have them at 6th.

Exalt gonna go crazy at halftime

It's either 4, which would be in line with the other regions
I'd personally go with 3 and give masters winner a slot
Possible (If china has another bad tournament outside of EDG) that Riot might give up a bit on Chinese Valorant for 2023 and give them 1 slot.

Curveball: The big 3 get 4 slots each, winner of Lock/in region gets +1 CHamps slot, winner of Masters gets +1 champs slot. Least likely option, but a possible 6/4/4/2 split

SO 16 teams. If I had to guess, that's:
4 from EMEA, NA, and Pacific
3 China
+1 for winner of Masters

I don't think they'll give China 4 slots due to how new the scene is. Plus, at Masters they only get the 2 spots, I don't think they'd double it and give it to the next tournament.

Bro I'd go insane to a different degree. Me alone would make more noise than a college football game.

Dizzy is fucking trash, Wingman tanky as fuck, green goog guy is wierd.

BRO HE HAS 100HP? WAY TOO MUCH

Fnatic 2-0 Loud

"It's a 5 map series tho"

Saadhak roles up into a ball after losing map 2, with Boaster over top of his quaking body doing the Fortnite L dance which causes Loud to forfeit.

Every fan in the crowd then gets a bagel because Derke bought some bagels for them. What a nice lad.

I hope it's some tasteful Brimstone nudes
