there is no way EG fans are comparing the two

ok

yes I know but "top 8" is basically more of a tier than saying 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

just like how you wouldn't say fnatic is a top 10 EMEA team you'd specify it to the lowest applicable number

he means falling from top 2 to top 8

how is the translator getting downfragged y'all bugging

highly unfair to EDG

their executes, rotates and utility usage are all extremely complex

there are not "simple" teams in Champions

nah com is lowkey clean

it's basically even chance for all three

they genuinely look just as disciplined with their util and just as crisp with their aim

they really might win it all

from player 1 to 5 they all are individually incredible

the streets are spouting some mad bullshit

please do 100T, I'm not sure if you have yet but my boy AsunaWEEB must be freed

really got that 2 inch monster up and raring

I'm torn between wanting to see EG finally getting sat versus seeing how far this shitfuckery can go on LOL

one bad game this tournament = overrated

don't wanna jump on the anti-GE bandwagon but at least his team is competing in the tournament 💀

that's true af

whole of NA was laughing at EG for even making franchising over G2 and now they're their last hope

I am

idc if he's the IGL he lowkey got his ass dragged to the finish line by Lemon1 and my goat Ethan

I guess people are mad that he's attacking the region not the team itself and Asians are super patriotic

look, the rule is if you can back it up, you get to talk shit

they backed it up against a good team in convincing fashion = anyone who gets mad should get good

respect EG o7

we'll be seeing you again boys later (hopefully)

xccurate would be so cool, I remember him hitting mad clips in late 2010s CS

they might not be in the hunt for another duelist though, just bring forsaken back to his pre something role and pick up a promising talent from one of the ascension teams that didn't make it

if they do want another crazy duelist, why not somebody like Jemkin who can hit the raze?

we're trying to win games here

damn.

Better NA:
Wardell (oper)
Prod (flex/entry)
sinatraa (initiator)
zombs (smokes)
jacob whiteaker (Sentinel/igl)

This team would crush fnatic's dreams

using rating over three games is not a good way of determining how good a player is

by your logic:
Chronicle < Boaster
something < whzy
Jingg + Forsaken < d4v4i

worst performing on Sentinels -> still a great player

that's why he got picked duh

and it would be saadhak for Loud not tuyz

no, vibes as in "mid" vibes

I would not put my beautiful catgirl Boaster in here if it was for personality

why are there even so many for a washed team

is it cause they're attractive?

vibe

my goat GloK will farm those noobs

0/8

not ur fault I should've added it to begin with

absolutely not, mindfreak is arguably a top 3 controller at this event at arguably the hardest role counting stats wise

i should've specified "best team" possible

DFM would take a map off that monstrosity

who is it

don't say mindfreak

make the best roster out of the worst player on every team, I'll start

Buzz
pANcada
d4v4i
Boostio
Boaster

smartest aTastyCook1e take

more like TwoFaceCe 💀

Ce you can't talk about bandwagons after putting on an EG flair after their miracle Tokyo run aight 💀

I can't wait for Lemon1 to get humbled tomorrow

I hope they get forever fr 😭

is it possible to be banned for misinformation

I love victor, but if a team is treating him as their star jett/raze player I don't think his mechanics or consistency is good enough for that

the NRG trio of FNS, crashies and vic was always good, but I think everyone really underestimated the fact they lost their two best players in the offseason- you can't expect to bounce back from that with long-term consistent form

ardiis was undoubtedly a downgrade for prime yay and losing marved was a blow too (though s0m is absolutely fantastic and has really impressed everyone, but just has been more of a pack player which has made NRG sorta lose a bit of the nuance of their attacking half with the nice flanks to accentuate the full site executes)

picking up a good flex player on the market would be good, but I really do wanna see them swing for the fences with a cracked young star instead of making veteran moves that will make them a playoff team that never really is in true contention to win the whole thing

not sure how many more Demon1s there are in NA ranked atm but I'm sure there's someone out there if they're willing to take some risks (Foxy9 to NRG would be epic too, his English isn't even that bad from what I can tell)

untrue

counterexample: FNS
counterexample #2: me (I could IGL a franchise team if you gave me aspas' aim)

does anyone know what happens if more than three of the guard guys get poached by franchise teams with better offers
correct me if I'm wrong but its the core of three players that get the spot in franchising not the org
does it go to the runner up team from ascension?

he was mid against better competition in 2022 and was farming teams like DSG during Ascension

You can't judge someone by how well they play in T2 and there's a reason he got dropped last year for better talent

and they said you can't replicate the csgo control in valorant smh

my guy is showing everyone

they say if you can't beat em, join em

are we even counting that as a region

average VLR user: trashes teams for lack of gamesense
NA players: start using gamesense to win rounds
VLR user: "smoke spamming crutch" 🤓🤓🤓

he's ok

lowkey in aiming ability too

it's not like they're winning off strats LOL

1. China
2. everybody else

thoughts???
