Yo what, LATAM vct only popped up for me rn

What do you mean by leave lol, y’all keep acting as if to be in this site you have to live in it 24/7, just check it out once a while and comment when some thread interests you, ya know, like a normal person

No idea, a combination of laziness and ego I guess. He’ll probably only play if it is for a big org, and even then he wants the org to do exactly as he wishes, in the end it is too much of a risk to take for a guy with very little to show for.
He could play in T2-3 if he really wanted to I guess, but even then he’s quite toxic and big egoed, I doubt any players would want to be in that team

The sova and jett metas I mentioned were from 2020, BR valorant scene barely even existed back then

I’d say NA showed the importance of the sova, (thanks to sinatraa mostly say what you will about the guy).

The difference a star jett awper can do.

sentinels popularised the jett/reyna duo for the rest of the world.

And post plant meta came purely out of vanity, showing other teams how good buffed viper could be.

So yeah, valorant metas until mid 2021 was mainly defined by NA

Comps substituindo jett por raze tem desde sempre, mas pra mim a parte principal e a inclusão do chamber, q are agr n vi ser usado com mto sucesso por nenhum time grande, (jzz meteu um jogo grande de chamber ontem porém)

Do q que c ta falando, qualifier NA nem começou maluco

I’m not saying jett will just disappear, but in maps such as bind, fracture and split chamber/raze can be superior for some teams

Understandable, have a great day

I might just be the only not from NA with high hopes for the region this year.
NA’s biggest strength in valo was never mechanical skill or actual strats, but their hability to understand and innovate in the game.
Most metas until masters Berlin were born and bred in NA, and this year they’re changing up things a lot again, letting go of the jett for a chamber/raze comp which I think it suits most teams in the region extremely well.
It’ll be fun to see how this bet plays out tho.

Sacy 1 game wonder? He dominated the Brazilian scene the whole year and even during Iceland where they were playing like shit tenz was still praising sacy
Heat literally diffed cNed, who many consider the best in the world, you don’t manage to do that by being just a one game wonder.
This is clearly a bait post tho so I don’t know why I’m arguing

3 main duelists plus two T2-3 players
That’s some TSM level shit, which means the team sucks

Yeah NiP EU is better, if we still were in February 2021

Apparently yeah, they all used to dickride sentinels but as soon as they lost something everyone turned on them

Sentinels performed much better against liquid then C9, and only lost to KRU by a thread, so yeah C9 might’ve gone gone to the playoffs but that doesn’t change that sentinels are still the best team in NA

VK remains The height of brazilian teams still, but I can’t see them keeping up with other teams if they maintain v1xen and jhow in The roster

Loud has crazy potential but they still don’t seem to have found much of their groove, they’ve kept VKS’s style of play and i don’t think it fits that well with aspas less and pancada. Already close second to VK tho which shows how good They can still be

Mibr impressed me a lot and it’ll be interesting to watch how much they can improve, worried that they might be lacking that one duelist superstar just like VKS did but we’ll have to see

NIP also has a lot of potential but haven’t impressed me too much, they don’t seem to fit too well together and have been a bit inconsistent, either playing crazy good or just plain weird, besides jonn doesn’t seem to be at his best but all of that can chance still.

I have no idea of how the other teams on the playoffs will perform so can’t really talk about them

Kkkkkkkkk more like “naughty”

Meh apart from NIP i don’t think there is any other teams that could give Loud a challenge in The closed qualifiers

Why don’t we have any results on the Turkish qualifiers?

Hot damn the skill gap is insane

What rank do you think these teams on open qualifiers usually are

Prod be throwing too many games against immortals to play for any professional te.. oh wait, he is perfect for TSM then.

So will he be playing this character in tournaments as well? Cause it feels like it was made for him, he’s always been one of the greatest awpers but a terrible entry Jett, so if he switches to chamber will TSM be running only corey on raze/reyna as duelist or will someone else take up Jett?

They’re currently on low immortal rn, used to be gold. It might not seem terrible, but there’s a big difference between low immortal and top radiant. I don’t mind the guy having fun, it’s just that I don’t see him playing with people his level a lot and I don’t how his out of stream practice schedule works so just making a comment here, but you can’t make a valid criticism without NA frogs crying about it

It’s his fricking job lmao, don’t come crying when SEN continue losing this year then, there’s more to life

I love the guy, I’m just worried about his practice routine, he even admitted that he wasn’t playing as much and that’s why he performed badly in Berlin

Everytime I watch this guy’s streams he’s smurfing with his gf, and yet he calls it grind and thinks himself a demon for owning lower ranked people.

Depends on his team, if he stays on VK heat is clearly the better jett, and in this current meta teams can’t Just viably play double duelist on every map. I do think he should’ve been the second duelist instead of murizzz tho

I think you didn’t really understand what I said, I actually agree with you, aspas is too aggressive and overpeeks too much, which is concerning if they want him to be the duelist that takes LOUD to the world championship

Not really, yeah he’s an insane raze and can even do a great reyna, but his jett is barely top 10 in Brazil and he’s nothing special with the awp, this kinda leaves him in the same situation as asuna, in which he’s an insane duellist, just nothing special as jett, and unfortunately the meta right now isn’t double duelist

Wait, did you delete your previous reply here or was it another guy? Anyways, man’s gonna do everything for a shitty joke huh

Welp they say Brazilians always play it like it’s ranked

Yesterday we had this matchup in ranked and I think it gave us a glimpse at what 2022 stores for us with this matchup.

Early game: Sacy’s team started the game with an easy 7-1 lead, showing again why he is Brazil’s most solid player, great utility usage, multifraging, and calling shots for his team.

Aspas also started showing his wonderkid status, taking every duel and winning most

Mwzera having a bad day wasn’t managing to win almost any duel

And heat was throwing more than helping his team, solo pushing, getting one frag and then getting traded as jett.

Things started to change tho, heat showed how much he’s grown, sticking to his team, calling strats and getting easy picks with the OP, getting his team back to a 5-7 game.

After switching sides mwzera managed to get a 4k on pistol and regained his confidence, getting a solid 1K per round after that

Even so sacy’s team managed to pull back, aspas stated winning early duels again and after that sacy led his team in the mid round to a win with with 2 and 3K almost every round, getting the team to a 12-8 match point.

That’s when heat turned the heat back on again, getting 3Ks almost every round, not to mention an insane 1v4 clutch to save the game, they managed to pull it to OT where they won 14-12.

In the end, we could see sacy getting increasingly frustrated with aspas, as he kept solo pushing and getting killed early in the round by heat, during the 1v4 clutch he just straight up took the duel with heat alone instead of waiting back with the spike along with his teammates.

On and all, aspas showed once again his pure mechanical skill with the rifle, but his eargerness to take duels everytime even when against sacy’s warnings and terrible decision making showed that there’s still a lot of room to improve if he really wants to be considered one of the best.

On the other hand it is time we accept MW just isn’t as dominant as he was in 2020, the competition has improved and the games evolution has also taken a toll on his playstyle, he is now moving on to a support role which is clearly new to him, as his utility usage when compared to sacy’s on the other side is notidly worse. I still have high hopes tho, as he adapts better to this new style of play he may once again have a spot on the sun.

As for heat and sacy I have no words, both are clearly the best Brazil has to offer right now, sacy being one of the most solid players in the world, great aim game sense and decision making, meanwhile heat keeps showing how much he’s grown, remaining the best jett awper in Brazil and managing to control his aggressive posture and hang back more, even being able to take a leadership position for his team at times, I do think aspas has more raw rifling skills than him, and if he manages to grow up just like heat it will be great to see what their rivalry will produce in the future.

(P.S. waiting for the too long didn’t read, or don’t care about this shit region replies)

One always starts strong and then starts choking, the other always starts slow and then picks up, who wins?

Kkkk wtf

Breakup, that shit don’t work. But you do you I guess, there’s not a lot to do in this situation without prior planning, so just call her, cook the same thing and make a virtual dinner, idk, just call her and figure something out together.

We would’ve had gambit vs envy and sentinels vs fnatic tomorrow. Not getting into any arguments I’m just stating it

I honestly believe VKS could be the only team in the world able to rock a no duelist comps, they’re stacked with amazing support players and absolutely no duelists, even gtn can frag more with sage than with Jett

If you think like that then gambit got no aim cuz they got dicked on by secret on icebox the same way

100T with the genius asuna go ropes and kill strat

Fnatic never went against a team that plays like secret or x10 on icebox so we can’t judge

I swear the best strat for this map it’s to just rush and take straight on duels

Honestly they look the same, just a different map pool and maybe a worse opponent, we’ll see about the last one

His brimstone’s legendary, but just start looking at acend’s past losses and notice a trend, he’s most definitely not as bad as bonkar for example and has been improving a lot

I’m not saying bonecold can’t improve nor that he shouldn’t be on the team, I’m just saying it’s a fact he’s not as mechanically skilled as other players and if you think his calling compensates for it. It’s hard to argue about this now that Acends riding high, but everytime they lose its all about the “Cned and friends” and every single time they lose it’s always bonecold that’s way down on the scoreboard

Why are you being so aggressive, I didn’t state my opinion, I asked for yours. IGLing does not mean you have to be consistently bot fragging, just look at Boaster, until iceland he was always the bot frag, until he admitted his mechanics weren’t that good and started to grind hard. I saw it all and look at that, now he’s actually carrying his own weight not just through strats

He does well on bind I admit, just talking about every other series

Just looking for opinions here, do you think his IGLing justifies his stay at the roster? Cause the man is just consistently bot fragging, and before you come at me with this roles talk I understand that he isn’t supposed to be top fragging, that doesn’t mean that he should always be bot fragging as well

May be, it depends, i myself would still place my bets on VS cause Brazil starts crying when they organized strats, but VK might have a shot with heat and all. VKS on the other hand I don’t think they’d have any advantages against them

And you don’t know how affected He is as well, so you can’t just throw corona as an excuse, besides, all of Envy are just losing duels man it’s very weird

I’d say the only way to win against VS is to disrupt their midround before they do anything, and Fnatic had Derke doing that perfectly
