It's also the "no util, no escape" phenomenon that makes players plant their feet and lock in

The suck tech is troll but yeah the map is too big for Omen. Astra smokes having larger radius is also relevant on B site
Yeah they need to beat 100T in the lower bracket
FPX bro when Life pulls out the shades it's like he's drawing the shades in the bedroom
NRG because every time they lose the fans make a million "fix" threads trying to lynch their own team instead of standing by them.
Hello I am from 2026 and you will need to add BerLiN to this list because FPX has won three trophies with his IGLing and smokes fragging
I swear to god if FPX get cucked out of finals again by facing GenG and Heretics in groups
I think short kings Boostio and Shyy should lead
No he's actually such a W coach for this like he really said it's a shooting game let's go shoot
Unironically I think a lot of you SEN haters will be converted to KRÜ fans today I know they got this one
ok mta is still getting there true but have you not watched Melser? the man is a 1v1 demon
cider or Mexican beer
for a mixed drink, Irish whiskey and coffee liquer with some bitters
read a dictionary dumbass something doesn't need to be groundbreaking to be thoughtful
But it's like
aspas > all of KRÜ > the rest of LEV
average vlr response to something thoughtful and genuine and not a low-effort bait
Listen he's a fine player overall but when it was him in that 1v2 instead of keznit I knew the comeback was over
True they do have the most boring comps but at least they play them in an unconventional way. I wish they'd try Shyy on Chamber or something cool though.
Gotta be one of the most entertaining teams to watch.
The way they never back down from a fight, they're so proactive on defense, keznit has cracked midround plays, heat pulls kills out of his ass, Melser never loses a dry 50/50, Shyy can't win clutches, mta is getting better, Atom encourages them to overheat. It's all so entertaining.
I hope they give us a close 2-1 group of bangers against LEV.
Tbh current LOUD if tuyz gets comfortable on duelist. Current FPX is a banger too.
Nah cuz they also need SEN to reach top 3 or else SEN takes the 4th slot. So they'd have to gamble that neither LEV nor SEN lose two matchups, as opposed to counting on themselves to win one of two matchups if they beat SEN.
Yeah SEN doesn't qualify if they lose single elim to 100T and then LEV loses both their series, taking the 4th seed champs points slot. Unlikely, but possible.
Leviatán is guaranteed to qualify.
Points go LEV > SEN > 100T so the last spot will go accordingly.
G2 must win one series to qualify since they have a bye.
C9 and KRÜ must win two series to qualify, starting with themselves, so only one can make it through.
I think the Americas grand finals is gonna be a disasterclass anyway but G2 will survive by virtue of how awful other teams play against them.
Are you watching the Chinese games
FPX is in their throwing arc and Trace has crazy aimers
I swear to god if FPX manages 3rd seed just to get 1st seed GenG and 4th seed Heretics again...
Literally 0 stakes games. Last time they were on an international stage they brought both of the grand finalists to a close map 3.
Explain the Sage part. The reason you want trip sentinels is because B is hard as shit to hold and mid is one giant lurk zone. Cypher or even Deadlock are better for that purpose. And if you want site retake or post plant support, Breach could be a better gimmick pick.
Also, if double controller is picked, it'd probably be with Harbor and not Viper. Her wall is too inflexible for this map and the one orb won't do shit.
how about you get over it and learn the map instead of running away from your fears
Tbh anyone with a Chinese team flair is good vibes. They're humble and just in it for fun pew pew gameplay
Talk to Me and Barbarian are the two most stressful movies I've ever watched.
Late Night with the Devil is a good vibes movie.
This is cope but I mean it was practically a showmatch for loud so I wouldn't be surprised if they trolled map 1 just for the hype knowing they'd actually put up a fight in the next two.
And yeah frod leaving really did a number on em.
Tbh yeah. Some of the Chinese teams can be wildly entertaining tho.
EMEA is worse. Feels like they wait until the last 20 seconds of the round way more often than other regions do.
Americas at least has a lot of aggro teams like Kru, C9, EG, and Loud that keep the pace up even when they're underperforming.
Won against every team that reached top 4 internationally and then lost against every team that didn't (giving mibr their first map was a loss in spirit). What's up with that?
Also tuyz will be top 3 raze itw in 2025, just watch.
Lev just needs to win one series and their first one is against the winner of C9 vs Kru so let's be real here. I say this as a Kru fan.
This shit again...
The region's population is comparable to Americas and EMEA, its playerbase is heavy into esports, and the game is still new there so of course they're gonna be a bit behind. Give them a year or two and we'll have more than 2 internationally competitive Chinese teams.
He can absolutely be their main duelist with more time and practice, which they'll have now. The mid season transition from qck to pancada was just impossible to deal with cleanly.
As a team that's practically all supports, Loud performs better with a duelist that sticks close to the main core and doesn't make solo plays. That was the idea with qck, but frankly his routing was really off a lot of the time. Also Less's omen is kinda crazy if they wanna do the double orb smokes comp from bind again.
That being said if they drop tuyz I'll be upset. It's not his fault they decided to get pancada back when having better smokes was this team's least concern.
No it's true they have all the pieces they need to win, but I think what's really missing is that they have weaker mental.
A lot of the games they win are clear stomps from the start. Games that drag out tend to see them making more mistakes, whiffing shots, getting impatient, etc. They need someone who can keep them focused when their aggressive playstyle gets countered by more patient/passive teams.
GenG will still qualify by championship points as long as PRX doesn't also throw
