Have you heard of Hynix

Ah ok got it

Honestly surprised Mitch and Tom aren't here... nor Doug and Babybay

Ok so...

Achilios + Paperthin
Bren + Sideshow
Pansy + Ender

What about the rest? Are they all just desk cast?

Me when I call a smoke A Main but my Astra's afk in spawn:

0/8 we were playing a scrim like an hour ago

Okay bud, settle down

People bring this up a lot, and to them I say: could said CEO not have found as much, if not more, success in a different industry?

Yeah all of those are clearly the same agent. Come on, 31Raven, get your head in the game

The name is catching on

In my elo? Astra, Cypher, Fade, Gekko, Harbor, Omen, Sova, Viper, Vyse, and Yoru.

In general? Nothing, I hecking suck LMAO

<3

Astra: https://streamable.com/esc278
Harbor: https://streamable.com/yyqu7j
Viper: https://streamable.com/zwnqhr

Yeah fr Geoguessr players are so delusional

All I'm gonna say is you see more Chambers than Harbors on Pearl nowadays

If ≥3 duelists, I fill controller
If ≤2 duelists, I fill initiator
(With caveats on certain maps)

So where are you going? Bologna?

Oh sorry wrong USA flag + EG flair, carry on

^^ here's a good example

Harbor :(

NIP did it ^^
VIT also combo'd Iso vulnerable and shock dart on defense to kill planter

6 to 1 off the back of the ace, Demon1 shuts it down

Surely that's more iconic

XERØFANG

Woah

No, to both the title and the actual question

Favourite is Champions 2023 (I don't have it 😔)
Main is Prime

Favourite Vandal: Champions 2023
Vandal in use: Prime

Favourite Phantom: Mystbloom
Phantom in use: Sentinels of Light

Aemondir?

Alright, that's valid

Do you think it'll make that big a difference? Idk much about askia but pryze is a solid player

Oh nice ok

Twice against EDG, once against BLG. The 4th one was their alt team against NOVA, I didn't think that'd work its way into the stats. Their Lotus is good regardless

I'd rather Ljubljana

Bro lives in Manuas or something

Pick Lotus, which they're 4-0 on

As much as I like the Kuronami set, I don't really like knife that much tbh, so I'll go with the karambit

Could also be nzr, Mazino, or nataNk

He's on a team of tier 1 rejects that have a great shot at Ascension

1st one never happened
3rd and 4th are rumours

Did I not open with "if you're not stingy about it being NA"?

If you're not stingy about it being NA, then getting LOUD 2022 or (even LOUD 2023) back together would be Americas' best chance of winning a Champions imho

Meanwhile you: https://www.vlr.gg/449374/hey

Sorry, replied to the wrong person

Abyss - Vyse
Ascent - Vyse
Bind - Vyse
Breeze - Cypher
Fracture - Vyse
Haven - Cypher
Icebox - Vyse
Lotus - Vyse
Pearl - Vyse
Split - Cypher
Sunset - Cypher

westside's 1v2 while Breach ulted on Lotus A
Derke's knives 3k against KC on Abyss

eeiu ace on Pearl against NRG

I mean... he's not wrong, that definitely is a list

For 9-12, I'm not sure, tbh. All of these are trustworthy orgs (well, as far as we're aware, at least) so if they're gonna keep investing in the VALORANT scene then I don't see why they wouldn't be directly invited into Challengers. That being said, I don't think there's been an actual statement on what happens then. Guess we'll find out later in the year

But yeah, that's how it works for 5-8

If you finish 9-12 you get auto relegated
If you finish 5-8 you get put in Ascension and have to fight to stay in
If you finish 1-4 (i.e. make Champs) you keep your spot for another year

If both teams finish 1-4 then the lower placing team goes to Ascension
If neither team makes Champs then the top 2 at Ascension make tier 1 (similar to NS and BME this year, only without the BLD part)
