FPX is a very good team and similar to FNC, they are solid strategically and have players who easily adapt to new roles and duties.
Joy to watch them.

FPX is a very very good team, but issues G2 has need to be addressed ASAP
I hate saying this, but roster change just to reset some things might be necessary
Don't bother trying to be the voice of the reason on vlr lol
These kids be mad disrespectful
They are trying stuff out for the international stage probably.
Who can blame them lol, they are overly dominant i their region
My reasoning behind f0rsakeN being the best APAC player is similar. His agent pool goes beyond Jett and Raze, and makes his whole team flexible with the comps (he played Yoru better than anyone before on a big stage and he is now utilizing Neon efficiently). His entries are explosive and find value much more often than not, even when he gets 0 kills, which is something I personally highly value within the duelist realm.
Jingg is a cracked individual whose impact cannot be measured properly, but he often finds incredible value from lose-lose situations and swings the momentum on the PRX side.
It's hard to give a proper reasoning behind one being better than the other tbh
Man you have an S tier Vandal there, pls do not complain lol
You havent seen mine yet lol
In my eyes he is, EU and NA scenes often forget to include them in these conversations. I want others to pay more attention to other regions, hence why I made this post.
He is indeed crazy good... And unfortunately underrated on the international scene
Interesting, who you got in APAC over him?
Where do you rank f0rsakeN in your best players lists?
Best APAC players - No. 1
Best players in the world - Top 15
Best duelist players - Top 5
And became a platform where streamers want to be featured on, so whats with the smack talk.
Mans grinded it out and found himself in a winning situation.
My point still stands tho, but even so, he didn't just start getting them from them out of nowhere. If he found himself in that position to be able to receive the videos in that way, it means he was doing something very good and he became a place where streamers want to end up being showcased.
Don't know the guy, but that still takes hours and hours to compile and put together
Sayf is underrated. His interactions with the chat have me rofl sometimes.
Man is probably laundering money or some shit thru twitch subs, no way he still has those sub numbers
Who would've thought that it only took a single agent nerf to shake up the meta and make it 100% more exciting.
You have a problem with that? Cool, I do not care. Either be a part of the discussion or as you so disrespectfully implied "shut up".You alright buddy? Need some air or water? What's with all negativity? IRL issues?
You seem to have issue with me talking about someone who played godly on Chamber while naming the thread "Best Chamber?" implying dude is nuts and we should include him more in non-shitpost threads. My post left the question up for discussion. You have a problem with that? Cool, I do not care. Either be a part of the discussion or as you so disrespectfully implied "shut up".
Now I know he is not the best Chamber, but I feel he deserves a little bit more attention.```
Kinda said it already.
Since MAD Lions picked up TENSTAR roster xms has been more than popping off:
24/5/1 (94% KAST & 341 ACS)
13/11/2 (71% KAST & 206 ACS) - only positive KDA player in a 13-4 loss
30/7/7 (95% KAST & 424 ACS)
Other MAD players just took a backseat and supported him while he just farms the T2 scene lol
Now I know he is not the best Chamber, but I feel he deserves a little bit more attention. He was nuts and only just got better during the short off season.
With new patch being played, I can definitely see a lot of role switches depending on the map. I'm just assuming here, maybe we will see Mitch on a Viper duty on Breeze, or Xeppa being the main entry for the team on Fracture & Bind.
This move is so exciting tbh. I want to see C9 on international stage again.
Numbers do not differentiate that much tbh, especially taking into consideration how long CSGO was establishing its esport scene and how long Valorant has been out. Valorants viewership will rise even further, it has the potential to be the most followed esport scene in the future, but I'd also like to see CS evolve with it and continuously challenge them.
Worst team or not... this was far from a "carry".
If you are SO into stats, shaky KAYO doesn't get 19 assists.
Once they get more comfortable in all roles, Guild can go all the way
We can only assume what they are gonna do, its been months since we have last seen Acend.
One thing to note tho... Cned has almost unmatched impact on Jett and it wouldn't make sense to have someone else in that entry role.
Even with nerfs in mind, even if he is to stay away from Jett on, let's say Fracture, he would play Chamber or Sage, while zeek would be the one entrying on Raze.
but then again, they could have reinvented the way they play...Like I said, we haven't seen them in a while.
In low-elo lobbies, people's game sense is non-existent (except few rare instances). It is aim that gets you out of milion crappy situations.
I would argue, from my experience and from some analyst podcasts, that you shouldn't always play "properly". To elaborate, use first few rounds to see the tendencies of your teammates, are initiators using their utility to clear sites, are controllers smoking the defaults and generally how they position themselves. Ask for their help and if they do not offer it, slow down, angle by angle, clear everything and only explode on site once you have cleared all angles of chokepoints. Train your aim in meantime, as this is what you should focus on perfecting all the way to diamond-immortal lobbies. I recommend PREMS method of training and if you really like it, Aim Lab to warm up.
Big W for them... Sad to see a legend gob b gone, but this was the right move.
German Valo to the moon!
Roles, like positions in sports, would be a necessary criteria for choosing players
Imagine an all-star game, like in NBA for example lol
SO it would be people from TR and CIS vs EU all-stars (5+2 subs+1 coach)
Coaches are allowed to talk and subs can come in and play after a timeout call
TR & CIS roster
Duelist: ACE cNed
Sentinel: M3C Chronicle (switching roles with nAts)
Initiator: FPX Shao
Flex: BBL aimDLL
Controller: M3C nAts (switching roles with Chronicle)
Sub: FPX SUYGETSU & M3C Sheydos
Coach: GMB ENGH
EU roster
Duelist: FNC Derke
Sentinel: TL Nivera
Initiator: GLD Leo
Flex: G2 Nukkye
Controller: TL L1nk
Sub: TL Scream & ACE zeek
Coach: FNC Mini
What would your hypotetical EMEA All-star game look like?
Tip #6 If you really like certain skin and you are financially stable after the purchase, just buy the skin and enjoy it
SInce you have already said you are P3 (predicted it lol)
Your aim is fine, you just have a tendency to overflick sometimes + crosshair placement is decent
Its your movement and positioning that needs little bit of work
SEN are too inconsistent imo. They will need some more time to figure out how to properly play with Kanpeki and they will need to put the work in. They cleaned the lower bracket, yes, but they still made fundamental mistakes that cost them so so many rounds. Shazam as an IGL needs to be more assertive and not allow so many hero plays to be attempted mid-game. Only than, they can be SEN of early 2021.
100T are RAPIDLY improving and playing coordinated and cohesive. They are a team to beat as of right now, but in the long run, we could be looking at a Champs contender IF they keep improving and eliminating some mistakes they have made.
Guard, Optic and C9 can beat out each other one day, and than lose against each other, the very next day.
I would say Cloud9 are my main pick for a number one seed, but its a bias, as I love how they jump from a loose playstyle one round and than have a killer set piece strategy the very next round. OPTIC on the other hand, they just read their opponents so well and are easily the best team rn when it comes to mid-round adaptations and post-timeout adjustments.
still, just a speculation, but what man said is true, this NRG has a lot of potential
Doma left cause he didn't fit in with FNC vision about future, I dont think you can call Doma anything using the word "bad" lol
I feel like that is just a slight exaggeration. We have seen The Guard apply the "traditional EU coaching formula", 100T have also been putting the work in and I feel like, the recent Shazam & Sentinels criticism (which is to a certain extent, applicable) has made us over-question NAs dedication and willing to put the work in to reach the top spots in International stages. I mean, ENVY/OPTIC have been making noise on International stage for a while.
Lets not make it about NA (region thing), it is more of a team culture thing.
Recently, FNC vs M3C was damn near stressful lol
I loved 100T vs GMB on Icebox during Masters 2
Do not forget 100T comeback on Breeze against ACEND
I asked him for his opinion as a fan of the game, captain obvious
You think he can fit in with their team and the culture in Fnatic?
Did Fearoth get signed on a full contract?
You know Shaz is becoming unbearable with his idiotic claims and his mindset when even SEN flair users are flaming him and calling him out at times + less fanboys defend him lol
I feel like Europe having so many different countries and cultures, makes this tough to answer if I'm completely honest.
However, I feel like people more often opt out to go at a bar, pub or a restaurant. Clubs are more "special occasion" if you will, that usually pull people in with their events or famous artists performing in them, which is not as often as it was, given the COVID is still a thing.
Then, there's Balkan area... Every weekend is a party or a club day, and every weekday is a coffee or a pub day.
EU stereotypes don't apply to Balkan region lol, but the best parties are there.
Few people have made a strong case, however, no one is as impactful as nAts, and probably won't be as M3C/Gambit have a playstyle that create opportunities for nAts to have the impact he is having on agents that can solo hold a site, or go on a solo lurk. Unless someone utilizes their comps to this extent, we won't see a site anchor be as impactful as he is.
