They qualified by beating out shitter teams they could've aim diffed anyway; when faced off against actual teams they fall apart from all the antistratting

Not playing for a good regional placement is the dumbest shit I've ever heard, if you play well regionally you get better playoff chances. This isn't 2023, they don't have a free Masters ticket anymore

Elmapuddy changes one agent from last year's team comps and decides that's enough meta innovation for the entire year

Team with RX in their acronym wins

generally they go by map diff first then round diff

Bruh that map 1 had TenTen get more kills than the other team combined

egg diabl0/11

On one hand anyone escaping IGZIST is a good move

On the other I don't see that working at all

Also where do people usually find Japanese scrimbux?

The world if leagues allowed 2 import slots

They transferred Yowamu into BC SWELL even though Split 2 is starting in a few days

Anyone know who they might replace him with?

Lmao just shoot the trip bozo

I saw tgrd 13-0 100t once and just followed their initiator player (I play initiator)

Wish there was a Turkish stream cause I feel like the casting on that would go so hard

FNATIC

Not adapting to the new meta and its consequences

bro's talking to himself 💀

TenTen lore: He's the taller of the two

You could put any map back in I just want Ascent gone

Highly doubt they would have the financial allocations for two T2 LAN tournaments

Second point is valid tho point system sucks

Eliminated teams when they have nothing to lose:

mazin pulled up out of the pit looking at the corner and died with both flashes

what

Win against Bleed next month then I'll consider it

holy fuck how long is this tech pause

Me personally I would've said cUm lurk assterclass

im a broke mf after getting reaver phantom and i wanna get the battle pass

JayH (DSG player) got banned on matchfixing allegations

Said allegations stemmed from when he was playing in China Ascension for NiP where he betted on himself to win

id be surprised if bro even wants to keep the org running atp

Makes sense, most of the top Japanese challengers teams are either giants in other games or owned by massive streamers so the viewership goes crazy

Bleed

praying on this outcome for g2

i mean tbf no one really had kru rated that high to begin with

There has been a concerning trend of gaslighting people into thinking that NRG fans were always the annoying ones

no team is entitled to a LAN spot stop crying because a team that isn't your favorite is playing good

Ascent just needs to go i don't care about anything else

True, I just wish at least some of his util got used

As much as I shit on y0y now, 2022 him was just a clip machine, I think his ult ace against LOUD better fits Chamber's methodical playstyle

Insane clip but it was kinda just aim diff

I chose the clips I chose because they beautifully showcased the agent utility which would be fitting for a cinematic

What clips have been in VCT that could be an agent's cinematic clip? Had this thought after Foxy9's ace last night

Jett - Jawgemo ace against NRG
Raze - Nukkye ace against Acend where he dodged a Raze ult with a satchel
Cypher - Foxy9 site lockdown ace against Bleed

Those were the three that immediately come to mind

Edit:

Viper - nAts lurk against G2
Chamber - yay ult ace against LOUD

That clip just screamed Jett clip. Absolute masterclass

bro tryna start a race war

Out: Ascent

That's literally it

hiroronn bottom rating hurts my soul but is expected considering they put a sentinel on initiator

So close! The phrase translates to "Hello friends. It's a nice day today!"

sunk cost fallacy really

y0y

wat happen

Bleed played better at the Riot One invitational with LEGIJA subbing than with Y0y in any of these Stage 1 matches lol

Here's a fun Vietnamese phrase you can use with your friends!

"Xin lỗi Công Anh. Chúng tôi là vô ích không có bạn."

This means "Hello friends. It's a nice day today!"

Happy learning!

feel bad for hiroronn, was hyped for him going into the season

bro snuck in y0y

yeah lmao

He gets a lot of first bloods and multikills which are the two main things in calculating acs
