ChickenJoe my goat

Here are a couple players he's done better than this Champs (according to VLR rating):

Zellsis, bang, JonahP, Ethan, crashies, N4RRATE, whzy, CHICHOO, paTiTek, trexx, benjyfishy, MiniBoo, stax, free1ng, BuZz, xffero, PatMen, Kushy, Monyet

Not that it's an objective statistic or anything, but it's crazy to say he's not fit for tier 1 when he's outperforming several very seasoned tier 1 players at the highest level of the game

I just hope next controller can challenge Viper as a 2nd ctrl

Harbor is RIGHT there

Okoboxx 🗿

Bruh if you knew then what's the point of the thread

Edit: mb check #4

I feel like I'd see it if the moustache was flatter

Yeah I know the guy running the Twitter account said it's a senti, but he's been wrong before and there's nothing in the image he added supporting his claim

Nothing about the image hints at a sentinel

Why would he leave? He handpicked this team himself

Nothing about the image hints at a sentinel

I wouldn't consider 5-0 a choke tbh

Bump!

They've lost two series at Champs already

It's a nice bundle with a cool design and effects that costs 1775 VP (very rare nowadays, the only other bundles this applies to since 2024 are XERØFANG and Aemondir)

The FLC era ended when they moved to TU and Akai went to military 😔

4-1

Didn't think anyone here watched World Cup qualifiers, did you

You got that brochacho

JonahP is Canadian

As far as I'm aware Riot's main issue with Falcons is that they're unwilling to disclose a couple things about their ownership that Riot wants all its partners to share

Not the point

They've been the two most consistently good played in MENA for a long time (along with Akai and Avez) so seeing them unable to represent their region at a stage like this feels a bit odd

KHaaLiD > sickrey and it's not close imo

Also a top level MENA team without Moh or SpY feels wrong

You were a SEN flair literally yesterday

Oh ic ok

Mini is currently part of PRX's coaching staff

I think you wait for FNATIC to drop Erik/d00mbr0s (he's kinda just chilling on the sidelines rn) and pick him up instead

Wait I recognize that username

https://www.vlr.gg/user/smthlikeyou11 omg it is him it's been so long

Fair, but NRG was -22 in overall first engagements (how is that even possible?)

how did nrg win when everybody was negative

Not the first time this year

You should, they're very good

Bit expensive cuz they're quite rare but it's worth it imo

(I lowkey thought this would be a Heretics post tbh)

You think DRX are gonna pull a Champs 2022?

Ok so you've never tried one, got it

Why Saadhak bruh he's not a controller player he plays cortezia and artziN's roles

The fact that bro responded immediately

I KNOW at least half of all tier 1 pros are ghosting this man for at LEAST an hour. W doma

I would have the entire Ego bundle by now if it wasn't the same price as Prime for some reason

Thoughts on cloudberries?

Bump

I appreciate those who've answered btw :)

Dont hate the NRG players but like none of them played well :poopemoji:

What's crazy about this is that FNC also choked a 2-0 lead in the series lmao

Also just to add to this, he's been proven to hype his teammates up (at least, to considerable extent) off the grand stage. He's much more supportive with comms in 10 mans (e.g. Pro City) and he's been shown in team documentaries to have a very positive character outside of the game

won't work for him long term
sure, he drops 40 kills now
but wait a few years when the game changes completely

This has already happened, man. He's gone through this already after leaving LOUD and he's still dropping the same numbers

I 100% understand what you're saying and it for sure applies to physical sports, but it's not exactly the same thing for esports, especially ones where being hyperfocused and not letting anything distract you is a very big factor in determining your performance

curry yes, he does it shamelessly

RoyalG no, he does end up smurfing but he tries to go out of his way to make sure it's not as bad as it could be. He just wants to do challenges (sometimes for educational purposes) and at the VERY least he's a good teammate when he plays in lower elo

^^^

No flash initiators and no Harbor :(

Otherwise I'd be stoked about current meta ngl

have barely watched this champs just baiting

We know

Wdym "male" 💀

No

Reason: uses Twitter

Ok but why would you even post it? Not only is it a completely voluntary comment but you're just setting yourself up for obvious misinterpretation

What is a reality stone

He's misspelling Antony
