chronicle's ace
it wasnt just the play either, that play allowed gambit to play for easily the best map of valorant up until that point

this one is kinda niche
most people are gonna think of pearl s0m cgrs from this

was funny tho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HwZjW2KReg

higher or lower?
I haven't seen that many (I play London and Frankfurt usually)
but from the ones I have seen they're pretty chill

uhhhhh

Either I get some cracked 13 year old or some toxic 40 year old chain smoker no in between

playing London ranked will change your attitude real fast trust

Do you agree with this tierlist of EU teammates?
tell me what you disagree with or if you think a country should/shouldn't be on here

unfortunately real

do NOT get ruination if you want a 'soft' skin
I made the mistake of buying it and whenever I play with a guardian I have to brace for the horrible sound

The difference is you're not calling against tier 1 teams in ranked (your calls are unlikely to be tier 1 level either unless you are high Rad)
You're not playing with Alfajer, Chronicle (and Leo)
You're not using util to a tier 1 standard

frankly I think the ranked comparison makes no sense

his aim wasn't the cause of his bad performances in 2024 entirely either, there's a few videos on the topic, this is the best one I've seen

To sum it up, the way he plays rounds makes it so if they win, they have numbers and he stays alive, but he doesn't really get any kills either since the others are doing most of the frag work, but if they lose Boaster is typically the last one alive. If you're last alive more often than not you're in a losing situation anyways.
I'd suggest anyone who actually really thinks Boaster is a 'fraud' to watch a few VODs and only look at Boaster.

I'm not saying that he's the perfect player, he needs to work on certain things like most do, it's just an explanation for why his aim isn't what's causing him to badly

I get some people don't have the opportunity to drive
I'm lucky that I did, and I would heavily suggest anyone else who does have the opportunity to pursue it. Even in one of the cities with the best public transport itw it's a game changer

man I cannot wait until I eventually hit immortal
(immo+ can only duo)

Nah I like this better tbh, this actually feels like a “kickoff” (I.e. high stake games off the bat)

uhh

hmm
that's not ideal imo, the bottom teams (or teams who aren't as popular) will benefit
but most of the supposed benefits were going to be for tier 2

21/22 koldamenta wasnt bad for his time
23 was very bad but people say his 21/22 was bad only because of his 23 imo (sorta a recenecy bias effect)

together as one

this is correct because y0y is gone
yay is now linked to EG
welcome back el diablo

I've supported the org since they picked up my favourite F/A team
and I really haven't got any particular loyalty to the org (maybe I do and I'm coping), it's just that they always sign players that I like, Optic was easily my second favourite team of 2022 and lo and behold they just signed crashies

Leo was my favourite player on guild in 2022, Chronicle was my second favourite player on gambit in 2021 and my favourite in 2022.
Boaster was on the original SUMN FC roster that got picked up

I'll be honest I'm initially doubting the kaajak acquisition, but I won't form my opinion just yet, it was very similar for my opinion on Alfajer at first, but he very quickly proved why he was called the 'Wonder Kid'

I'm still sad that Derke was dropped, I really liked him. I wish the best for him on VIT
The only scenario in which I can forsee no longer supporting them is if they drop Alfajer, Chronicle and Leo all in one go

im biased but

wo0t and derke are both great, derke's just been at it at the highest level for longer, I feel like he'd be more reliable

thank you 🙂

I was tryna find the post where I went through the STATS thread and put all of trembos separate comments in to one comment

wait I didn't even see this
I was trying to manifest billy billy 6-0 😭

hurry up!!! fraud list is calling

any suggestions?

one last bump
(delulu for thinking maybe someone at rito sees this)

I'd go for Kuronami or Mystbloom

however singularity is the goat

always

Let's see what he's gonna say now that they've won

I don't really watch streamers when there isn't games, but:

Sliggy
mini
ardiis

holy moly

Also I think Jinggg's good more so because of his agent mastery, maybe someone like buzz would be more suited imo

maybe Xeus > Elite?
Also Cryo's gotta prove himself again imo

5/9 im cooked
(there's one more category 🪞)

Man I miss ScreaM

There's no defined roles so one player can fulfil the role of another if needed, also they're technically unofficial but it's pretty much:

on t side
Entry
AWPer
Lurker
IGL
Support

on ct side 2 of the players will play site anchor

verno is great but donk is donk

yeah exactly

this isnt bronze

ok, so you'll then be able to surely communicate to your team to go out and capitalise on the timing right?
hell if you know how to popflash correctly you can set yourself up
plus I haven't even illustrated any use of util from the 4 other players on your team

I get ranked can be annoying but complaining like this is indicative of a weak mental, it really could be a factor holding you back from immo 3

you said you're immortal?
I'm not doubting you, I'm just surprised

I like val better as a game to play
but CS is a bit better as a game in terms of esports imo

in CS you have way more situations in which mechanical talent can shine, making for a lot of hype moments. You still have some depth to strategy although its not as deep as in val.
But the final being a bo3 was kinda disappointing tbh, the last map was amazing

Are you not doing any of those 4 things to clear angles anyway?

Haven'll be one of the least affected maps by the omen nerf I think
the only one way that pros frequently used (out of the ones that you can't do anymore) is the garage one

I think astra is better now though regardless because of 5 stars, so maybe for that reason her pick rate will go higher, but I don't see her replacing omen completely since a lot of players are comfortable on Omen

So you're a baiter AND a liar
smh my head pick a struggle

who do you really dislike then
is it Turkey an TH?

Oggy and the cockroaches
Naruto
Pokemon

Donk was 13 when val came out
Still would’ve gone to CS but it’s food for thought

Of CIS
Riot PLEASE give them their own VCL at some point

Most important 1v1 of his life and he showed up
