bro had such a redemption arc on KRU just to get stuck on this fraud org

wait, why him?

Please, im begging you
in a recent interview the valorant team manager claimed that "they do not believe in comboing abilities" when asked about how awful the teams comps and utility usage were.

kick this fucking org, please, we cant risk tainting more brazilian talent with Furia's brainless thinking
i hate these fucks holy shit

i really hope they somehow beat 100t eg and some third team. personally i feel like they could maybe beat either LOUD or KRU because of region buff, like how FURIA and MIBR were dogshit against gringo teams but somehow made 23 LOUD sweat. maybe they get a broken SEN? i just hope they win enough series to go to playoffs and then win atleast 1 game there so they have a chance at getting top 8 overall

plz refrain from the 2glu hatred. especially if you are from americas.
you are basically admitting all of your regions t2 teams are brainless
m80 and TSM lost to 2g so they are clearly below abysmal

cmon, we all know that was a pr move.

the base worry can be simplified to Trump's assertiveness, past administrations were very passive so the status quo didnt really change. Trump is assertive, he thinks something needs to be done, he does it, and border policy is something he cares about, which means border policy is volatile while under his command. which regardless of validity, IS an issue for an international league like VCT Americas

Even if you dont go the DEI route, or border policy route. Valorant is owned by a chinese company, and we all know how iffy the relationship between china us and russia is right now

ooooohhhh
i guess that could work

If that is the case, I still want a new host
I mean we have a fuck ton of visa issues now. I just thought this situation would be the necessary trigger to get VCT out of LA

I don't accept that argument because shows like Sex ED and Euphoria exist. If they can do it no consequence why can't anime?
Hell, I personally prefer anime Fanservice since it is atleast design to please the watcher
But most western media just uses nudity as a way to shock or weird out the watcher.

It would be possible, I guess the main problem for riot would be infrastructure.

Idk how safe and structured are the cities in the Caribbean, but I am pretty sure it's expensive to travel there atleast.

Fortaleza itself doesn't have the necessary accomodations for the teams in my perspective.

A lot of people complain about Fanservice in anime
But, it feels like they have forgotten a key aspect of it

Shonen is for teenage boys.... Teenage boys like boobs and action, which is why there is so much of it

Shoujo is for teenage girls.... teenage girls like tall dudes with overtly feminine or masculine personality traits (srsly look at any Shoujo harem anime it's 8 or 80).

If you don't want Fanservice, watch Josei or seinen. You know, the genre of anime specifically targeted for adults?? With all that grey dullness and hopeless vibe you ppl seem to enjoy.

Every time ppl complain about anime and how it "should be" they always end up describing western animation. Just watch western media dude, nobody is forcing you to watch Mirai Nikki or Love Stage

It's always "too much Fanservice", "the characters are to whimsical", "why are the designs so cutesy?" , "I don't like how expressive they are", "It has too many weird concepts". It sounds like you just don't want to watch anime.

Anime is made in Japan, by the japanese, within japanese culture, ofc someone who doesn't live there is going to feel off-putting, but to just go and scream that they need to change is just entitled.

Kids shows are aimed at children, LazyTown, Bluey & Backyardigans are shows made for kids that display clichês inherent to the genre, to complain about it and then compare it to The boys or GOT is insanity.

TLDR : Stop complaining about anime when you are clearly watching the wrong genre for you.

Brasil has a good relationship with USA now

This could change, Trump is controversial, and not that popular with south American government leaders + Canada. Maybe something happens, maybe someone says something and they get added to the list, if trump.enforces the list, them he becomes it's manager, any country can enter the list, and by entering the list, Valorant s eSports scene gets compromised.

The majority of countries have an awful president rep sheet, now imagine two hardheaded presidents bickering about tariffs or import restrictions.

The point is, if the list exists, VCT Americas is compromised by how Trump decides to manage the list, which is why I'm saying to change the host, so VCT Americas isn't hosted on a country that has highly restrictive visa parameters.

I don't care about the validity of x country entering such a list, all I care about is that one of my hobbies doesn't get kneecapped by international politics

Hey, let me preface this by saying, I dgaf Abt what anyone thinks of Trump, this isn't a political post ok?

After news of the "yellow list" which is allegedly a draft of countries the USA will ban from traveling into their land. Again, not a political post.

Riot needs to change hosts NOW, I can't even begin to rattle off the amount of headaches that this will cause for e-sports, sure, maybe Brasil has a good relationship with USA now, but I'm pretty sure LATAM doesn't, neither does most countries in EMEA.

PLEASE RIOT, avoid the visa headaches and just fucking change the host city. There is Canada, Curitiba in Brasil, hell, I'm sure there are some good cities on LATAM.

FFS we already had visa issues before, this shits gonna get wicked now

this is literally something 10th graders ask

If a thief points a gun to you and your gfs head, and says one of you needs to suck his dick for both to live, which one of you is sucking him?

there is 2 chairs, one chair with your favourite type of cake, and another with a dildo, do you sit on the dildo and eat the cake? or sit on the cake and eat the dildo? (obs, the dildo will go up your butt if you sit on it)

i dont have the patience to watch this mf anymore
he stalls and bullshits too much, takes too long, talks abt shit no one cares
anyone who watched the vid can explain to me why is he saying Verno is going to GenG?

hes replacing something we just dont know who

did danii1 die? anguibok?

for americas i would go
MIBR
LOUD
G2
SENTINELS
KRU
LEV

2 of each, maybe sub out lev cuz they betrayed latam

Personally never had any opinion on Tex, never even heard of him badmouthing less, and considering the whole Sacy/less drama I'm not surprised Tex talked shit on less

still under review

Retired

If its him playing on mibr again im gonna fucking cream

on the brazillian killlist
its on sight for him, if he steps foot on so much as bolivia we cappin him

here is a list of NA players the Bronzillian community would approve to have on their teams

Jawgemo
Bdog
Oxy
Eeiu
JohnQt
Zekken
Rossy
Stellar
Som
Zellsis (Personal pick)

Give me 2g

lets negotiate

How do i become 2G manager?

I know he just got benched but he was 2G's second caller, and is also an initiator. Good utility usage, the team won't need to change the comms.
He watches Vod reviews. He can flex.

I mean. I know his aim didn't look great in Kickoff, but if they can't hold Nzr due to personality, Pryze would fit

Aspas = God
Jawgemo = Dog
Zekken = Good
Mwzera = Doog (shit)

EdG got top 3
Last year they got grouped by Qck
They will be alright

I meant it as a Incredible IGL and Duelist duo that stuck together to win a title

The Sacy and Aspas of Korea

He deserves this

5 YEARS IN THE COMPETITIVE SCENE FOR THIS DUDE FINALLY GET A MASTERS
THANK YOU LORD
IT WAS EATING ME ALIVE THAT FNS AND COM HAD ONE AND YOU DIDNT

literally all of it was Fnatic's fault
if LOUD had won Lock In i guarantee you that the competitive landscape wouldve been different, Fnatic probably wouldve not even won the second masters, PRX probably wouldve took that

If you ever wanna get a feel for that city in particular

Search Jardim Botanico Curitiba on Google street
You will get a decent idea of how the place looks

Dawg they just won a champions and got top 3 on a back to back event 😭😭
Let them rest 😭😭

The only team that won a champions made it to GF's next event was LOUD, and if LockIn was double bracket Loud would've NOT made it to GF

it still enrages me we allowed memea to win lockin
one of my time travel spots fs

Anyone know what will be the maps on split 1?

Because the city has great infrastructure with low crime compared to Sao Paulo and Rio and fortaleza

Basically
It's a good city for the players and orgs to be in. Relatively safe (in comparison to other capitals) has a large eSports crowd and is one of the cheapest places to live with good quality of life in Brazil

Can Fns even play initiator?

Curitiba. PR. Brasil
Or Canada

USA keeps FUCKING up our teams

He speaks Spanish right? That could be a great alternative

That's the thing, it's just a scary situation.
fRod and Aspas aren't dumb, if it's the right choice to bring in verno, that's the choice they will make
The problem is if they have to decide between 2 bad decisions

My issue is the weird way he got benched from NRG
I'm scared he might fuck up the team cohesion

Other than that I do believe it can be detrimental to bring in an English speaking player cuz you would need to change the entire comms to accommodate him

Can someone plz explain in detail why NRG got rid of verno?
All I know is he punched Fns and keeps moaning in voice chat
