I do not intend to be malicious in any way, and I apologize if my words have come off in an unintended manner. The original focus of this thread was about how the crowd is muted in comparison to the casters, and #5 brought up how it was the same in Shanghai. You rebuked it and I simply made a response to it.

I'm not as invested in this debate as you are, so I'll make this brief and respond to each of your paragraphs/sentences.

1. We heard cheers, but not when a Korean team was playing.
   I'm not implying that ridiculous political vendettas are okay, but I'm stating that it is understandable that GenG received less cheers from a home population very sensitive about such topics. I do not condone it but for sympathy's sake I believe it's understandable that they reacted how they did.

2. Yes, teams with fans are going to get cheers.
3. Crowd is going to support favorites and you can't really stop them from doing so.
4. Crowd favorite team got defeated while controversial team won the trophy. Of course it's going to be awkward for the crowd.
5. Nobody is pretending that neutral crowds are non-existant.

I feel like the scoreline flattered Talon but their strange comps definitely gave them an upper hand

Yeah you're probably right. I just can't help but retort misinformation that could mislead guillible users.

So T1 doesn't exist and nobody cheered/clapped for GenG? Sure, the enthusiasm wasn't high for GenG (understandable) but the crowd mic sucked and people did react positively to GenG plays. Also TH had a bigger fanbase (Wo0t, benjy) so of course they got more cheers.

What the

Definitely not the goat but my point stands

Kangkang's aura clears

I'm not so sure about that

moatz is the sites most famous Uzbek flagger (probably)

Going home :(

After cabbaging destroyer as well lol

I would never. Especially not on you

<3

Not all Europeans are hateful. I can make the same claims about Americans

The geography nerd in me hurts

I like your handwriting. The tier list is a solid 7/10 in my opinion

Because CN is supposed to be the region that produces garbage and we get to laugh at them when they suck a lot (satire)

Also we're EMEA fans so of course we're going to worry if we aren't winning

Don't you need to 100% the event?

Same lol

They don't call him Bian-k in China. They call him Xiao Bian, but idk what the case is for K-night I think he just wants it to be like that

EDG looks much better than FPX (discipline + mechanics)

Facts

FPX got beat by Trace in playoffs upper bracket only to reverse sweep them in the lower finals after Trace lost to EDG.

No FPX reverse swept Trace

FNS is good but I will always love watching Steven Liggy

I agree. I think they should've taken Bind and put up a much better fight on Lotus

I've only seen him play maybe 5 times so I'll take your word on that

I think it might be better (aim)

I don't actually care I just didn't want to continue the conversation lol.

Brain is smoother than The Quantum stabilized atom mirror

Thanks for the info!

But you have to remember that Bind is BLG's best map.
And you can't really compare region competition because the circumstances for each team are different. BLG had a rough season overall but got much better towards the end of Stage 2 and Playoffs.

BLG needs to beat KRU and FPX needs to beat SEN before I can actually believe that. 4/8

truth is lev did way better as APAC 4th seed> China 4th seed on bind

Lev went 13-11 against TS while Fnatic went 13-9 against BLG. If you're going to make a bait the least you can do is to be clear.

What are you even trying to say?

Good

Beat Funplus first

No I cannot :(

I will make sure Edward makes you that coin

Sayf and walker aren't ready for FengF and Kai

He might be my favorite Valorant player.

I feel like Sentinels are going home but KRU might live to fight another day.

It would be devastating to see Jamppi go.

By "dumb stupid" do you mean they frag hard? Or do you literally mean that they're going to go dumb stupid?

It's slightly hard to read, yes. But it could be attributed to my English which isn't as good as it may seem.

Blud has a vendetta against China lol

Kangkang is rated just fine. It's not like anyone's rating him as a top 10 player this year.

But for some delusional reason I have Sentinels beating FPX

Watch BLG and FPX respectively send KRU and Sentinels flying back across The Peaceful Sea.
