There will 100% be such a group because na+emea+kr=9 slots, either 2 emea+1na group or na+emea+kr, so being top 4 EMEA actually sucks, I just realized that

Sorry for toxicity

Based as fuck, pipson was a thrower on my favourite team in crossfire and was a reason for them sucking dicks back in the day, I am a personal hater of him and insoM so NAVI DAVI

Exactly, seeding does not really matter, top 1 na and emea will most get last seed of the opposite region+top 1-2 teams from minor regions except Korea, so it will be easy to get top 2 in group stage for 3rd seed na!/3-4th seeds emea

No, they weren't, their core has been playing together for couple of months months and they only added cloud instead of crabik, not a completely new team like you portray

Wouldn't really call it a choke given how navi performed vs acend, seems like Acend and Gambit are more or less same level judging by scores vs navi, and Liquid are def way weaker than Acend, I would say 80-20 for Gambit in Liquid-Gambit match up.

Gambit are leagues above navi(7-0 so far, with half the maps not even being close) , so I doubt liquid can win vs them if they face each other, we will see tho, everything is a possibility.

This qualifier is a chance for Valorant to become more popular here, the same happened with dota when navi won ti1, dota still dominates cis despite lol being a way more popular game globally, that's why im hard rooting for our region now

CIS is just good at fps, look at current hltv rankings, the same might as well happen in Valorant who knows.

Imagine not being too fond of cis when you are Russian, fake and gay tbh
РУССКИЕ ВПЕРЁД
ЖЫВЕ БЕЛАРУСЬ
СЛАВА УКРАЇНЕ

Forze are(unfortunately) way worse than navi, so liquid are favourites to win(coming from a CIS fan), liquid probably wont qualify even despite winning vs Forze tho

Not an fpx fan but feeling proud for 2 Belarusian players to be in top 8 EMEA at least, now rooting for ssk to beat Guild and Giants and I will be very satisfied.

They are losing to 3rd cis seed, and Forze are way worse than navi let alone gambit, it is easier to qualify for EMEA from eu than from CIS cuz they have 6 slots versus 3 slots in CIS.
