bro must have been having flashbacks opening up the scoreboard and seeing his IGL on a 0.5 and unable to clean up free kills on the map.

-30 is still a problem, you could singlehandedly farm 3/4 ults just on his - alone, but the problem was that half of his deaths are after he fumbles around with util, or whiffs 20 shots on a player looking the other way, or cant get simple trades on stationary enemies. the last 2 rounds of lotus OT were single handedly on him alone, he drooled over himself on C looking for spike with nothing smoked off, and then proceeded to run upto an enemy dominated smoke with util in his hand after splitting with his team.

classic retard droid with the npc "cry about it" response. its like they make u barely sentient mongoloids on a conveyer belt programmed to drool the same responses to everything. literally every person with 2 braincells to rub together is in universal consensus that the level of play was dogshit. cant wait to see the best Toronto teams definitely be the best at champs too tho!

that doesnt make any sense ngl, the map pool changed and got rid of prxs worst map and put in their historic best, the meta changed and made double duelest and single initiator immediately viable which is PRX preference, they won precisely becasue they diddnt have to adapt anything riot basically gifted them everything they would have wanted and then took away the prep time for teams that historically stomp PRX.

2 teams playing with substitutes another 2/3 only there because they were good in tejo meta, a mappool and meta change last minute that both heavily favoured a single team (what a shock that team won /s ) no t1 or edg so no title defences. wolves storyline is nice but do they make the same run if like 6 of the teams in the tournament arent duds, probably not. so this one will always have an* to anyone who knows what they are talking about tbh.

• 2 teams with substitutes.
• missing the last 2 champions becasue they werent good at tejo meta
• last minute meta change
• last minute map pool change

other than paper rex where every single thing from meta change to map pool all worked perfectly in their favour getting rid of their worst map and making their most favourable comps viable, every single other team looked different levels of bad to awful.

The disrespect to YHchen is insane, do people not see how insane his supportive utility is? He is topping the lobby on assists consistently, even when they went international his assists were insane.

Ontop of just straight up assists he is such a gap filler, alll 4 players will forget to check a corner, except him, things that dont appear on the stats like him playing his life at switch map 1 every time allowing teammates in garden and site to get a bunch of kills, delaying with the molly and knife in tree. Next time ASE play just pay attention to how he plays and how good he is at supporting and setting up the rest of the team is, if you do and still think monk/bunt are better choices u gotta be smoking something.

ASE have so much potential imo, if Life can play a little tighter with his team while entering sites as jet, and lean into the operator more, and Zero1 can improve his individual decision making, then this team can be competitive tbh.

if one google is following a life closely what do u define jumping from thread to thread to defend your favourite pc gamer pro team who you only like because they happen to be born on the same dirt as you and happen to be doing well as u hop on the bandwagon for a team of players no one gave a shit about for 2 years? something about a pot and a kettle no?

take out "region that got the game a month ago" and replace it with "region thats been underdeveloped in FPS forever, has virtually no presence from experienced veterans to be IGLs and coaches, had no support and couldnt attend more international events than events they have attended to this day, have had no ability to play on less than 200 ping for half the region and where talent development has been hampered by the fact that they literally had to vpn to play the game", the latter was really just an microcosmic example to show the lack of experience the region has as a whole.

theyve had the game but the region hasnt, they havent been able to attend a tier 1 competition for 2 years, half the region cant just "play on korean servers" and get valuable experience since shanghai is like 250 ping to korea, thats not including the fact practice and mickeymouse's arent a crumb of the valuable experience that NA has gotten for example. the sentiment is the same, as a region they are a newborn.

fnatic either stomp as they should do with that roster or they throw and we see some atrocious valorant out of them like we did vs Loud, either way its almost as snooze as the 437th repeat of the china regional match we get tomorrow as well.

the guy has been competing in professional esports across OW and Val for almost 6 years and his crowing achievement in that time is coming 2nd to fnatic a single time after 2 years of mediocrity, ofc hes gonna get shit on for running his mouth, bro has achieved the same amount of professional success as magnum and doma.

after achieving his crown jewel of being a post-it note in fnatic's story he has opted to exclusively punch down, being dead silent to teams with the level of experience and instead exclusively targeting low seed teams and a region that got the game a month ago. ofc its hes gonna get shit on for being so loud on camera but as silent as a whimper in the server for 6 years straight.

im sure "gentlemates" will do great in tier1! they definitely dont have a t8 peak on the horizon next year!

NA DEAD SILENT LAMOOOOOO, UR BEST TEAM GOT MANHANDLED MAP 1 AND NARROWLY WON THEIR BEST MAP, HOW DO U PLAN ON WINNING WHEN FNC HAVE 2 VETOS???? LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

yeah idk, PRX have already shown they have 0 chance of beating FNC and that probably extends to EG too based on how similar their teams and form are, unless they get something back they will probably lose to NRG if not definetly lose to FNC/EG so rooting for them to win is pointless, ig the fnatic 2peat is the last interesting storyline unless ur banking on another NA slot

both teams were entirely in control of their own fate, EDG absolutely dominated PRX map 1, if they stacked ults they just win the map easily and then go on to do one of the easiest 2-0s of the tournament. just a lack of experience
