EDG, JDG, BLG, WBG, TES, FPX, LNG are guarantee to make it, they are the most popular org in China and all have great financial with stronger ownership.

RNG is most likely to not make it due both the owner and the org are in bad financial situation.

I think RA is most likely to make it. They have pretty good financial, compete in multiple game, and decently popular. They are one size down on everything from the big 7, but they have a competitive Val team.

Is the matchup correct? These 2 teams are in the same group during group stage.

I always feel FPX players have worse mechanical aim on average compare other top chinese teams. I know FPX keep proving me wrong since they always have pocket weird strategy to surprised other teams, maybe this is their thing. I still think ASE will overtake them this time.

I think you mean Challenger.

I have a higher hope for Leave. Decision making is very important in Val, I have always think Leave has top decision making among OWL players. Though Leave's aim is a bit worse than shy, but his aim is very high level none of less. I also think he will master a bigger agent pools.

The partnership league only allows 1 import. WBG is well funded org with good financial and they have been in Chinese VAL since the underground days. They are very likely to make it, so Maple or pl1xxRA will have to be benched next year. They begin to prep for next year.

RA is a medium size LPL org(still well funded compare to likes of Tyloo) and they have not been in Val for long. They may or may not make it to the partnership, if they don't make it they will have to compete in the Chinese Ascension tournament which allow 2 import.

I never heard of Stew before, he played so well.

You are delusional. If any tier 2 players get paid 10k a month, they are extreme minority.
50k a year + living expenses covered is better paid than most jobs in US.

RNG's owner has financial trouble. RNG itself owes lots of loans to banks. Riot potentially disapproved them based on financial.

I feel Esperanza is the weakest/ one of the weakest players on the roaster. Why is he safe but not the others?

EDG 2-0, they looked much more coordinate in the second match against PRX

Kru may have died, but its spirit lives on. Fusion is the new Brazilian slayer! Fusion 2-1 Union

EDG 2-1 T1

Knight will win both Valorant and MSI.

Massive threw from Faker

I can't wait for the toilet bowl

TR choked away a 12-6 lead, that is impressive

NA is scheduled to play a B03 against TSM at 4pm est in MCT, and a B03 against Teal Seam at 5pm in Knights Monthly lol

He is 18. He couldn't compete earlier this year because he was under 18.

Well, Chinese teams will probably be good.

Is guard also in the COL facility for this qualifier?

Honestly if both SEN and TSM win their first match today, I hope that SEN loses to TSM. For the past 6-8 months it seems like SEN has really let their foot off the gas pedal and lacks the motivation to compete at a high level. I feel like losing to TSM in a deciding match would be enough to spark a change for them. SEN has one of the most skilled rosters in NA but it just seems like they don’t have the drive to win that they used to have. I’m a fan of both SEN and TSM and want them both to succeed, but for SENs sake I hope they lose, because if they win vs TSM I see them bombing out in the closed playoffs again. Let me know your thoughts please!

Akrewstralis is back

Laz is the only one from Zeta here to play

If V1 qual through NA, they won't have wippie. so they are in the same boat as fnatic.

He was too busy pumping shit NFTs to make big money.

I think Shawn and Gmd grind the rank alot. I hear them on other pro's stream a fairly often.

VS stole Nuturn's best player Lakia to sabortage them. Nuturn performance fell off even against other korean team after that.
