I'll be very surprised if it's not 100T, C9 or XSET

but between those 3 i'm not sure

def the most british looking, idk about general european tho

how is this a hot take? atm, i'd say it's not expected for them to make finals... quarters? yeah, semis maybe but if you expect them to make finals your expectations are too high

lmao sounds to me like he just doesn't wanna be ordered around

can the KR, CN and SA (india) teams at least fly into and play from PH or ID or SG for better ping?

because imo Nuturn should win apac lcq but if they play on singapore servers and have 120 ping.......

watching EU and NA kids mald if there's ever a mixed EU/NA team would be so funny

aren't you a TSM fan?

no

the bait isn't funny but the people falling for it are

ignore sen twitter it's a bandwagoner farm to find merch targets

yeah classic anime storyline, they play each other for a spot in champions, but then both root for whoever wins

that loss broke their mental fr

to think what might've happened if bren just had visas lmao

cned also gets more threads when he pops off, he just gets more attention in general on vlr

don't worry, it's only the least important game of the day, totally not a game that could've easily been a final...

as CR showed today

pretty sure the lithuania val scene is bigger than russia's

r/stfu

I know i'm gonna get downfragged for this but i really do think they're hiding something on icebox, dapr on sova seems like a downright troll to me

(if this is really their best on icebox.... they might wanna consider banning it or at least making drastic changes, bc it's awful)

honestly i don't understand why the teams even had to play twice

I mean if SEN was in a "normal" group, they beat F4Q, then beat G2 -> advance to playoffs, which is two games played & 3 days of rest... instead they have to play two extra games (and they lost, meaning they're 2nd seed instead of 1st like they'd be in any other group) and have no rest days. Same for G2, instead of two rest days they get 1 and they played 4 games instead of 3

source?

can you?

LATAM > BR, JP which both have 2 slots but they only get 1... i guess LATAM is kinda a one-team-region tho and BR&JP have much more viewers... should latam get another slot, thoughts?

if it's gonna be random i rly hope they do it live

imagine getting 1st seed and beating gambit just to potentially play SEN in quarters KEKW

well, and I'm not saying SEN threw bc i don't think they did, but tbh being the 2 seed might be better for them. As long as they don't get unlucky and play VS, they're gonna be playing an NA team they know they can crush

I think it's about branding, like it or not SEN's brand (on twitter at least) is based around how they always win, posting a loss would lose them thousands of bandwagon twitterstans

"Havan Liberty" = Haven is free for u

zeta threw vs vk so they could feel out the BR playstyle and feed the info to CR 10head

F4Q is just saying shit for content lol

Frisian

noob NA & EU teams: save strats
5head KR team: save players

i wasn't gonna make a post today but TenZ just smashed like 10 records so i guess here's an update on the international LAN records. And yes, I know a lot of these are kinda useless stats (like spike plants as skye), i mostly do it for fun.

In a single map:
Highest +/-, +25, TenZ (SEN), previous record was +17 by BuZz (VS)
Highest ACS - 478, TenZ (SEN), previous record was 396 by Derke (FNC) vs KRU
Highest HS% - 69%, Esperanza (F4Q)
Highest econ rating - 141, TenZ (SEN)
Most 2ks - 9, ShahZaM (SEN)
Most rounds won by defusing - 6, SEN (vs F4Q on Split)

Agent-specific:
Least deaths as Astra - 5, Marved (NV)
Least kills as Reyna - 5, fiveK (F4Q)
Highest ADR as Reyna - 286.9, TenZ (SEN)
Most op kills as Reyna - 1, zeek (ACE)
Most spike plants as Skye - 6, SicK (SEN)
Most 2ks as Viper - 8, MaKo (VS)

hey, don't get depressed. EU is the only region that's never had to deal with not being top tier and it shows in their fans. It's not the end of the world to not be the best

tenz > cned but not as jett

hands down best val LAN series so far

I'm not liking this EU self-deprecation arc

take a card from BR, just limit hype a bit more and talk about what goes wrong no need to get depressed

haha +respect

Korea has 50 million people, Europe has 750 million, according to this logic EU (and NA) should be extremely embarrassed for dropping maps to KR teams...

nah d3ffo is just having a good game, there are plenty of EU jetts better than Asuna (cNed, Keloqz, Derke) but d3ffo's not one of them

CIS + EU + TR = EMEA is the thinking, it's not necessarily wrong, it's just used in the wrong way sometimes

defense sided or not, you're not gonna win any games when you're down 11-1 at half bc u planted the spike once

in 12 rounds of attack, G2 managed to plant the spike... once. One whole time. I get that SEN is a good team and all, but on arguably the easiest map to get onto site (except Breeze and B-site Icebox) this is just embarrassing... G2 really needs to fix this if they plan on getting past the quarters

this guy isn't a SEN fan, he's a SEN bandwagoner that wants SEN so TSM quals for LCQ KEKW

but they WERE dominant on the first map

just because they got embarrassed on the second map doesn't mean they didn't dominate the first

studies show that official val twitch chats reduce your iq by up to 10%

avoid at all costs

1 more, you forgot the one before the match

gtn holds every single yoru lan record... most kills, most assists, highest ACS... all the yoru records are his. Top 1 world for sure

it's bait y'all ^^

100% that one, the others were stomps

see how SA and CN do in asia LCQ and maybe give it to one of them
