pretty much every chinese team has academy. china has some rich ass orgs

smoggy, muggle, century and aaron all said the reason edg won champs is because of nobody and how they believe nobody is truly the n1 igl rn

with 2 subs 😭

yes

they are actually playing good too, especially potter

THE FUCKING GOAT WHAT?????

zhao is also solid from what ive seen

bait is so annoying

prize pool is not enough so they wanna let kk have his vacation and let the academy players to have some experience and show off their talent

our worst map was ascent wdym. its an overall lost, considering EDG were the best lotus team this year but split and pearl are good maps for EDG overall. so im not concerned

bro let the sub players play. its not that srs, edg havent even pracc'd properly with these guys

I like EDG playing ascent, I wanna see how they are on their worse map even if its with 2 subs. also potter so far has been great tho its clear some chemistry is off

I am so fucking hyped for this match now

bro EG have played with each other for like a week, chillax bro T-T

thats true, very very excited to see this team in 2025 and look very solid as a second seed for china considering fpx rn is... not up there. with kai I expect a top 6 finish at least next year

such a shame, zhao is a good player, suprised me quite a bit but definitely he is no kai yet, TE had a real chance to win here today. But overall pretty satisfied with the result, and good signs for TE developing their map pool

while for GENG, its obviously a good result, let them gain some confidence for their new team. Foxy9 looks much better

is this the chamber finished merchant or something like that

lol

geng have no sentinel, I wouldnt expect them to be doing good on def, and honestly if trace couldnt win attack rounds even if they have sub, it would be dissapointing for this team

wouldnt say good yet, not ascent winning level but its a sign of life for TE fans

obvious take, anyone who doesnt think so is just wrong, buzz is the only comparable one, and texture is like 2 levels of diff compared to buzz

if they have chemistry then EDG should demolish I agree

most likely

he is and honestly he is a good one at that

I agree, they are good players, but they most likely arent used to the system of EDG and cannot bring out near the same success as the mirco is much worse. and T1 is not a bad team, with extra time of prep, T1 is most likely favoured here to win.

I give them 60-% odds to t1 to win here.

do NOT bet on EDG expecting a free win, they have 2 acedamy sub players

give me some credit. im 7

real talk im 16 :p

You also didnt put stock into Chronicle's CIS Masters win

no one is gonna see the TEC domination and revolution coming 😈

whzy and 3.5 friends

FNC, NRG and EDG cried about having too many matches in 2023

dont think it would work

guess who is 1 year older than the average :^?

have you ever heard of a team called FPX

no TES? kinda sad

put everyone in contract jail >:(

real talks it wasnt that bad

no, he is gonna suffer another year

thanks I know IM the best player available :6

ah I forgot JDG is franchised in valorant lol

that team hasnt done anything good yet

yeah and he was the original chinese jett too lol

谢了

is it confirmed alr? mb havent really been following vct lately cuz ive been busy :p

blg is rumoured to lose their best player, yosemite. maybe they can cook something up but its not looking good

xlg plz win

that was a goal? I mean theres only 3 franchised LPL teams in valo

is scuffed like can only play x amount or can play y amount but only 1 is meta

we will see when wolves face fpx later but as of now, I still lock fpx/te as 2/3 seed. the real competition is nova for that 4th slot

thats a shame, but still excited for when trace play. hope he recovers soon

snail is better than b1ack, but nothing special, I also hate abo on duelist

edit: as soon as I said this abo won 2 rounds for TEC making him 9-13 lol

and as soon as I say that he is getting cooked again smh
