Enzo clutched out of his mind every now and then, he had a bad game, leave it at that.

That's what i thought, but dude got 1 shot by a phantom so clearly not.

Wtf is Booster doing ? Why is he buying half armor ? Is he keybinding, is it even legal ?

Boozz is terrible holy shit. Missing 3 crucial shots in a round, he's done tonight.

I take it all back BOOSTER is a chad.

What doesn't kill you make you crippled.

DRX will probably mental boom, let's be real.

G2 not even good enough to 'choke'.

We only call them chokers because they whoop asses prior to choking.

:> nice flair.

It's this time of the year for the annual DRX collapse. They are surely going to mental boom after this.

They will 2-0. Floptic is mental BOOMed

Boom Boom Boom Boom

Rigged shit for sure. Riot is gonna get caught pants down one day.

NA bots mental boomed.

Buum Buum Buummm

This team really doesn't deserve him.

Eco aces are just travesties. It's not really worth hyping, especially when you have access to a few backs and can just spray away.

Some aces though, are really fucking bonkers.

Get off 'my' dick is different.

To get off someone's dick means to stop sucking up to someone. It's used to call out disingenuous / disproportionate praise for someone.

Now, surely if you refer to yourself, people would assume a different meaning from the context. Words like 'dick' and 'fuck' nowadays have very derivative meanings. If you really spend braincells browsing 'urban dictionary', you can never spend emough.

Getting off one's ass and getting off one's dick are different.

Might even be a hot take with all the NA hate around here, but NA is not bad at all. If they condense their talents into a few competent rosters (franchising next year), they might give EMEA a run for their money. NA LCQ has been super close so far.

Same people who think Tenz still has a high 'ceiling'. It was the first Master, we had fond memory of it, let it be.

Again, not saying that Tenz and Lakia are washed, simply that we expect too much of them.

Slots allocated beginning of year. Riot probably didn't expect regions to be this close in power level, so they tried to pander to SA because their CSGO was half-decent.

Pls don't sneak india in there, it's not even a proper region. It's like TWHK and VN, literally only there for representation. Gets raped everytime.

KR=BR>TR

Back to twitch

Is it faster on twitch ? Fuck

Or not ?

Disband

How are the chinese teams ? Any chance they're showing up at Champs ?

Have not followed NA for a minute, which team is the favourite to win LCQ ?

SEN looking so so thus far, is TGRD even any good now ?

Fair game to FPX. Super salty that PRX elected to go for this dogshit novelty comp, but what's done is done, hopefully they learn to a play proper comp next time.

Just a matter of form. Previously, you can argue the same for APAC, yet they are getting to finals this time.

SA also flopped Master 2 Berlin last year, every single NA seed placed better than them.

The real reason is that Riot thought BR has the potential to produce a contender, due to their FPS foundations in CSGO. Turns out Riot doesn't have to pander so hard after all, regions are very balanced in this game.

BR/Latam has less than 1/3 the playerbase of EMEA, even putting the NA question aside, they don't deserve more seeds than EMEA, period.

APAC here means the entirety of Asia. You do know how large the whole region is, right ? If China starts playing this game probably, they alone will probably get 3 seeds.

They combined East Asia and APAC LCQ last year, but this year China is joining. It's fair to give them a more manageable chance at least.

Don't know much about their level, but KR or JP will probably still get the slot.

FPX has just returned to form. At their peak, FPX is basically the best team EMEA has produced (seeing how the sport is constantly improving), and they've just beaten FNC to prove it.

Saying that Optic loses to FPX because of mental is super dumb. There might be some stylistic reasons here and there, but Optic lost because they were the worse team (at least on the day), period.

Stems from the fact BR is basically the last region playing CSGO other than EU/CIS.

Riot was trying to promote it there because BR was not up to expectations last champions. They wanted to have a contender from there, judging from its hypothetical potential.

Turns out Riot doesn't have to try so much after all. Regions are quite balanced in VLR. South America, as of now, deserves 3 seeds at best imo.

It's a bit disingenuous to argue against NA's third seed. They have won a few Masters thus far, and is clearly a frontrunner. Even APAC has 3 seeds.

The obvious place to cut 1 seed from is LATAM/BR LCQ. There's no reason why South America should have 4 seeds in total (other than Riot wanting to pander).

Are players sabotaging the gears ? Why the fuck are there so many tech pauses in Valorant ?

Ange1 is literally dogshit, a huge liability for FPX. Dude has shit for aims but fancies himself a karrigan.

FNS is also shit, but at least he knows he's shit, so he doesn't try to match the enemy's picks. Ange1 will ego it and leave the team to 4v5 everytime.

As a neutral, I'd like FPX to squeeze through for narrative reasons. They are probably the most unfortunate team both Masters.

They shoot bears, not school kids. Definitely better practice than in burgerland.

Acoustics are not very good I'd agree. Crowd seems a little dry. Sound guy should put some reverb on it for the epic factor.

The Malaysian dude didn't know, and he seemed to ask.

Dude's been bailing FNC out of so many losses so far. FNChoke would have dropped to Leviatan if not for him.

If you don't survive last as a smoker, you are trolling your team. Peanut brain take.

Well, Jing is enlisting, and Forsaken probably moves westward for franchising. Let's hope APAC gets some proper org like in Dota, so the talents could stay.

He is quite cute as well, no homo.

These smokers are most likely the last one to drop, so they obviously are in the position to clutch. They often have the tools to do so as well. It's becoming clear that a clutch controller is vital for a roster. The same had applied for CSGO.

I don't even like DRX, but they have good reasons to think so. This team goes 12-0 one map and literally does fuck all the next.
It has to be consistency issue, no way such a dominant team can't perform at least respectably every other game.

Or perhaps Leviatan was just that good. After all, they did beat XSET.

DRX showed horrible form yesterday, I don't think you should rejoice so.
