we're looking at yoru jett double entry
since they closed the left side of site w sova dart its a safe tp decently often
viper wall protects me from someone playing near mcdonalds, yoru jumps up and jett pops out of smoke w yoru flash
ez

you're the first, my entire premier team has been calling me lebronze james for this
idc im locking it anyway LMFAO

if i see a team run this in premier im blaming you

not even trolling theres actually 80 set plays you can craft on b site
change the jett/chamber to reyna and thats paper rex's comp for this map

yoru jett/chamber sova harbor viper

yoru will become meta on this map the b site is just busted

half serious pick and it will dunk on kids in premier

5.5 a month is after taxes... thats literally what the comment says can you read

he's not their worst player lol the kid just isnt good on LAN yet(or in general somewhere that isn't a setup he's well adjusted to)
think once he can work past that he'll become much more solid
yes he shit the bed on both MXM's losses but that's fine, he played well in split 2 and playoffs, just shouldnt be on neon lmao

i think they can do better than screwface but this trial roster looks pretty solid

c9 flyuh likely
rip the mxm goat cant wait to see him in franchising

you're playing reyna with op
two people swing you
you miss your shot
what next

no i will continue to play initiator controller and duelist better than my donkey ass ranked teammates

think you just have to change how you use your mouse if you're playing on a sens that low
perfectly viable to play raze on low sens even though it's probably more difficult but if your arm sits in the same position the whole time/your mousepad isnt big enough yeah your satchels are gonna suck

woohoojin the goat

yes, that's what they did, they banned lotus

in order of skill on the map
ascent - kayo sova omen jett
bind - skye jett raze brim
breeze - chamber kayo sova harbor
fracture - phoenix jett chamber raze(bring back fracture i miss free op kills a main)
haven - omen kayo jett
icebox - dodge(fade jett sova if i have to)
lotus - phoenix jett raze
pearl - jett kayo
split - skye raze jett
sunset - how tf do you play this map someone explain

could not be more harsh lmao they got outplayed by loud who solved their lotus kind of hard to beat a team that's as good as you when they crack the code of your best map
4th is a good placement considering chronicle sold champs LMAO they still would have beaten paper rex and they would have had good odds to beat eg too

we found the one guy that plays kayo on split

top of head, pragg, erigaisi, gukesh, sarin

what's your elo link is dead

yeah i have no idea why people are downfragging you LMAO

indians are cracked at chess bro theres like 4 young indian prodigies already
anand fell off and a whole ass squad came to replace him in the super gm territory

some of the shit their ceo has done with some of their other teams has been extremely scummy

they already have their own team lol

this person's abject refusal to read words is kind of mindblowing

demon1 over derke and jawg should probably be a couple places higher imo

s0m died

it is time to revisit demon1, ethan, and jawgemo's placement.

yeah 100% he's the most replaceable on the team
like there just arent people available right now that can fill demon1's shoes on jett, or ethan's as a support, or jawg's raze, or boosti's igl(at least an igl that has the fragging ability that he does)
flex players like com are a lot easier to come by tbh
despite that he still has consistently huge impact both individually and for his team, and he's just as good as the rest of them
the role that he plays is just the most populated among players on the market rn

what more does bro have to do dude could 1v5 prx every round and win grands all on his own and people would still find a way to underrate him

eg are not going to let prx get away with not banning their permaban map in haven
eg may not want to play it but they will certainly be happy to play it against prx considering they actually know how to play haven

there is simply no shot we are continuing to underrate ethan after literally 4 triple doubles against loud
the man put on a clinic and we still have to have this conversation? jesus christ...

considering theyve been permabanning haven the whole tournament? not likely tbh
not just this tournament, they've been doing it for a while, almost zero shot they change that for a grand final
more likely they take their chances on ascent

lowkey such a hard team to rank(outside of boostio bottom but he's igl so that's more than fine, and his sheriff is NASTY) they all have such insane impact
jawg's raze is insane, might be top 3 rn, and very capable of flexing smokes
demon1 similar story with jett, kid frags out so consistently
C0M(aka Commits 0 Mistakes) has an insane sova and great lurk impact
im being so fr when i say the dudes sova is unlike anything ive seen hes so good at it, every dart, drone, ult is so consistently connecting bro has the enemy on a 4k 80 inch screen all game its fucked
ill be thinking about his sova on that pearl game against fut for at least the next week
ethan literally triple doubled every single game against loud except bind LMAO who even does that
gotta be a top 3 initiator right now

anyway enough glazing com the team is nuts whether you like them or not

there's a decent chance they try it but imo it doesnt matter either way, eg are fundamentally better at both maps
first set of maps should leave the series at a 1-1 in any case(bind and asc/frac)

Ethan gotta be higher than 10th

probably fracture but eg should win whichever map regardless so it's probably immaterial

?

pearl will probably be a decider or prx map pick(lowkey i think eg are better at pearl though)
edit i gotta shut the fuck up sometime

is there a possibility that pANcada would be staying in the sentinel role and a player such as Flyuh(or a controller main/flex) coming in to directly fill Marved's role?
W thread

huge call

100%, at minimum loud and eg should have a clear edge over fnatic from map bans
what does a prx-fnc grand final look like?

as a guy that's been called a ch***(slur for chinese people for those unaware) probably more times than the person that made this tweet that's not the idea at all lmfao
if it was then sure you can have that conversation about it being racist but the tweet totally ignores the context of how new the chinese val scene is and the comparative level of said scene to the global stage
it's banter and for fun, but it's also literal - chinese teams, right now, are at a lower level than the rest of the world. nothing wrong with acknowledging that and trying to read into that and interpret in a way it's clearly not meant is just silly lmao

FWIW its somewhat different than claiming eu>na is racist since racism against chinese people is an actual thing and the idea is that it's "belittling the capability of chinese people"

100% agree this is an inevitability of any competitive scene
there literally have to be good teams and bad teams
also couldnt agree more with the navi point the margins between win and loss in those group stage matches were razor thin

the fact that the strength of teams are spread throughout regions is a good thing, not a bad one, and we need to stop pretending otherwise
plenty of esports scenes have seen the congregation of skill become limited to one region(league of legends) which is so much worse than what we have now
it creates a much more engaging worldwide scene, it brings in more money to help sustain the scene, and it brings better viewership which is all great for growing the game

me when i forget about drx

yeah drx are kinda balling but i still maintain that prx is still fundamentally a level above them right now
i'm so down to eat my words if they make a losers run but considering fnatic will be waiting for them if they lose to eg(which they should in theory, but i said that about them against loud) i dont have high hopes for it

and yeah if you group the americas together they're a two team region but imo there isnt a large gap rn between tier 1 na and tier 2 na teams(especially the top ones like m80, mxm), and i think the story is similar with sa in that regard
so the point of na and sa only having 5 spots therefore not being their own region is kind of ehhh in my mind especially since the guard will almost certainly fit right in with the rest of the teams in americas

thanks!

yeah but it's as chronicle put it, that's true for every region
na - eg
sa - loud
pacific - prx
emea - fnatic

when competition is as fierce as it is that kind of thing becomes an inevitability and considering the alternative is the scene becomes dominated by one region only, which is so much worse, this is probably preferable atp
and tbh to say every other emea team sucks isn't all that true
fut looked pretty solid against eg despite the 2-0
navi performed quite well in their group and really just had a tough group to deal with that they BARELY dropped on all 4 maps they lost
giants probably overperformed expectations(at least mine)
and liqmid are unsurprisingly dogshit!

basically yeah emea is a one team region but a lot of people are overreacting(purely for banters sake which i respect) when it comes to the level of the other teams
and every other region is just like emea so meh this isn't unique, nor is it news

my brother in christ this is an either or question what are you saying yes to

EMEA are unquestionably a one team region but is that so bad? considering fnatic are still the best team in the world who really cares

nt lil bro
