id say gambit rather than acend but yes acend have been good for more than just champions
KR<BR is an indefensible take, 0/8
pretty obvious sarcasm, its about the fact that vlr has been deleting posts about ukraine due to the No Politics rule
yes. the guard still struggled on the other two maps, which they would not do against a t3 team.
says a lot about the guard for getting smacked on split and almost beaten on haven by a t3 team then...
im fairly sure they havent changed the answer list from the original
fuck vlr why does it default to making a new comment when im trying to reply too quickly and why tf cant i delete comments
he means getting a negative number of kills, as in less than zero kills (hence "somehow")
Reyna is not S tier and Omen is not worse than Brim
is he wrong tho? obviously there are reasons for it but currently the scene is an absolute joke, at least in valorant
the form of all four of those teams was very varied across the tournament so while VK and VKS deserve credit for almost beating acend and gambit, they cant be considered as good as Acend and Gambit's peak form (grand finals). Both acend and gambit struggled in their games against the brazilian teams and later got better, and both VK and VKS played way worse in their next games and got eliminated handily. FNATIC's form was pretty consistent and C9's was consistent after their initial game against FNC so the fact that VS almost beat both of them shows that they are a playoffs-calibre team.
full sense were absolutely not better than x10 at champs... x10 beat envy, slaughtered VK and took a map of gambit, full sense got bodied by vision strikers and cloud9
if they get a direct slot to masters then riot still has to pay for their flights lol
well f4q were decent but didnt actually win a game internationally so hard to call them world-class
perhaps. im mostly basing it off the fact that the korean teams lost to a japanese team and full sense, the second worst team at champs, in LCQ
why should oce get a direct slot?
japan is the worst region... i think kr 1-2 , jp 1, br 1-2 is pretty fair for champs. vs is better than any brazilian team but br has 3 decent teams while kr only has 1 good one
youre absolutely right, but KR is still a one team region until DK and ESC can prove that theyre the real deal
LG definitely too low but SEN being lower than 2nd is a react andy take
you're a clown but riot is trash at organising tournaments so you get my upvote anyway
well champions and masters now have a different number of teams and i assume different formats. honestly id rather champions be a carbon copy of masters with bigger prize pool if we could fix this dogshit slot distribution
NA has insane viewership yet only 2 slots at masters so dunno about that
not everyone in EMEA or APAC (SEA+SA+OCE) speak the same language either
no, but the best region should have more slots than fucking south america
riot should just do playins, then you can have 69 japanese teams for your precious viewership and marketing and also have a decent number of actual top teams there
NA is the second best region. frankly none of the regions are shit except japan but NA&EMEA >>> brazil
sentinels weren't playing notably worse than C9 at champions even, C9 would have lost to KRU as well most likely
marved said kyedae was "the type to cheat" and that he was gonna fuck her at LAN. he apologised for it after but idk if he and tenz are still not on good terms bc of it
100T still undefeated by EMEA
FYI:
Chamber, Sage, Astra Jett PROTECTED
Sova, Kayo BANNED
pheonix is also the face of the game and he's been dog for ages
TSM won Stage 3 Challengers 2, not Challengers Playoffs
yeah it doesnt say that, OP added that in an edit and i dont know what his source for that is, id be very interested in seeing that source since i havent seen that said anywhere
definitely not direct to OCE since they go through APAC. i really doubt theyre giving APAC an extra slot just because it includes OCE now, since only one OCE team qualifies to APAC in the first place. even then i wouldnt want NA to lose a slot for that, NA is almost certainly way better than OCE
i dont mind BR keeping 2 slots, but if NA loses a slot just for an underwhelming Champions then BR absolutely should lose one as well
why not? he's an OPer and sentinel player, chamber makes complete sense for him
traditionally yes, but not in valorant (yet)
