he copying gambit and playing brimstone

nah this guy doesn't even hold a candle to m4

this guy is a demon in the clutch

he's escaped the kolkata asylum

losing every attack round on ascent to double sentinel is crazy

Someone said Governor is igling now

Their deadlock implementation looks great with the sova util

that shit is so troll for exits

flair

and are playing against furia

I think he was igl for turtle troop in like 2023 when there was rumblings they would be signed. If it means molsi goes back to his form on oglu that would be nice, but the expectations for Apeks have to be so low that any change should be welcome.

Did you delete Australia?

Th is like the th of valorant and Apeks is like the Apeks of valorant. Hope this helps!

Hard for latam teams to get a visa on short notice

12th to relegation

Elite was 2.2 rating higher than him holy shit

Tomaszy played a life game against KC, magnums turn

Goat is back

Deadlock sage every map

Runner what is he running from dementia? Runner what is he running from dementia? Runner what is he running from dementia? Runner what is he running from dementia? Runner what is he running from dementia? Runner what is he running from dementia?

If I had a nickel for every 26 year old female pharmacist on vlr I’d have 2 which isn’t a lot but weird that it’s happened twice

Still old

Lev being the worst team in Americas tied with 2g would be crazy. Demon1 proving that he's capable of outdoing yay in every way, even his fall off.

hardstuck silver 3 peak to ascendant 3 smurf, must've got a good gaming chair this act.

Astra Yoru are core pieces, then you have three main directions: Double senti (chamber and vyse), double duelist (yoru and neon), and then double initiator (tejo and fade). Sova and fade both seem viable, fade seems better if you commit to tejo.

HenBabyH's absence led to an even worse shitposter taking his place. He was essential for the vlr ecosystem.

Psion in 2025

Counterpoint: PRX

RIP

Get him back on the arizona green tea phantom and he drops 30 every map

He stopped phantom abusing this year

it says 2025, and in kickoff aspas set a new bo3 kill record

I forgot that China was on week 2 mb, I only counted the 2 preds from the week 1 of China

currently elysxxm is the smartest member being 100% correct on preds. Truly the darkest timeline

You're currently 13/20 for preds on podcast

I'll run a statistical test at the end to see if they are statistically different from randomly guessing

I've been keep track of the preds from both podcasts and will be posting the results in this thread. (I'm counting split 50/50 preds as neither correct or incorrect preds)

I must have misremembered, because I thought people were saying it was his choice during the sen city event.

I really hope that's not true and nAts stays on sentinel, he's legit one of the best in his role.

I thought he was the one who wanted to switch to the initiator role, that's why N4rrate was on cypher during the off season. When you say dragging him down did you mean in terms of his performance or his calling?

How is there 3x the 0 point pickems as 60 point pickems? Who was picking Furia > G2?

How do people rate him as an igl? I remember he was be called one of the fragging igls from last year, but 2024 sen looked way better in their calling than 2025, and I assume sacy was helping out with the midrounding. His attack side calling seems to struggle, with him running into the stacked site late a lot of times. Pearl today was pretty rough, except that sen was able just to outfrag 100t, even when running into a stack. I was curious on what people thought of his calling specifically and what they would rate it?

I’m surprised you didn’t bring up ascend’s 2021 Champs run.

Are there any other moments like the Txozin knife where small effects snowballed into huge changes in the scene?

Edit: Another example, I remember someone saying nv was looking to pickup zellsis but he got banned for racism/sexism at Reykjavik and they picked up yay leading to the OPTC roster.

Acend getting beaten by VKS exploiting a camera bug and the map reversal sent them on a run to win champs 2021.

this guy lost like 100k from a two leg parlay in kickoff. If anything this is more responsible

It’d be understandable if they were playing a comfort comp if it wasn’t their map pick. I am starting to have doubts in Dgzin because it looks like he can’t play yoru or doesn’t want to and it’s preventing loud from keeping up with the meta.

MASTERCLASS

Fns life series today he drops 35 in 2 maps

Bumping your own post after 2 minutes is actually tragic

I think the main reason for a lack of NA sentinels is that for a while most igls were sentinels. Same reason EMEA kind of lacks cracked controllers, since a lot of their igls are controllers.

But sen are from na???

Same energy as onur saying he didn’t believe in anti stratting teams
