That was so incredibly intelligent from Leviatan. All 4 members making sure to die to Cryocells so his Mr. 4k curse activates, rendering him unable to kill Tacolilla in the 1v1? Truly a 1000 IQ move, you can really see how the tactical depth of Onur and Betony brings so much to this squad.

as someone who upgraded to 11 i regret it, don't make the same mistake i did

you can't even really call it that, they showed back in champs that they were good, now it's just a run

i will change my flag to whatever you wish if guild qualify through winners, respected user ufc.

def on the krupium this event, kru make top 8 thru lower bracket let's gooooo

DONOOBS 2-0 LITERALLY TOO EZ LFG

qor 2-1 produce

LFG DONOOBS

i don't disagree but winning 1000 points from winning copenhagen essentially guarantees you a spot regardless, so i doubt they change it :(

optic will lose to xerxia at least once, it's doomed to happen

E-xolos but I am already aware it won’t happen if latam, Brazil and na are merged

No movement abilities so wall and slow kill pushes iirc

BASED

THEY DID IT ONCE THEY CAN DO IT AGAIN VAMOS E XOLOS

One thing I am confused about is why bbl are def out. If bbl win and Navi somehow beats guild won’t it go to round differential? If either bbl or Navi somehow win by massive amounts isn’t there a chance for either of them?

81?

Some form of dual pistols. No real reason

Gonna need to see kill sounds/animations before I make a call on this one

also my dumbass read it as seven's team secure playoff berth :(

sadly no. if two teams have the same number of wins, head-to-head is compared. since faze beat c9, faze is guaranteed to place above c9

ever heard of a little team called t1?

probably metal fusion but (bad take alert) i think shogun steel is unfairly disliked, it's pretty fun

Phantom because I am a smokes main
I really like radiant crisis because of the kill sounds as well as the fact that it is relatively clean and doesn’t take up too much of my attention otherwise

I guess I’m OG since I’ve lurked around since maybe sept/oct 2020? Don’t really feel accomplished tho…

Obviously m3c are a very good team but they’re in a bit of a slump rn, maybe the political situation is playing a part so I’m not going to judge them too harshly. But consider:
DRX have only been 2-0ed twice in VCT history if I recall correctly (vs nuturn in stage 1 2021 and vs ons in stage 1 2022). Note how none of those were international. They are insanely consistent and people really underestimate how close they bring it.

VAMOS E-XOLOS

Unless valor go insane and 13-1 13-1 p5 or something along those lines, yes.

I think mathematically global has gotta place 2nd, so it will in fact be fpg vs ge

While I don’t personally agree, I am a big fan of how you actually had reasons for your choices and didn’t just call players bad or washed. Was a fun read!

Who’s gonna igl my guy

Lfg igzist you got this

zombs may be arguably a little too confident on twitter but net is not confident enough. different things entirely, one is not inherently "better"

It’s really good for valorant as a scene that sen seem to be getting back on their feet, because like em or hate em, they are the team that draws the most attention.

Having a coach at all is a major W, def a step in the right direction

Number 10 on your list isn’t tenz or tenn so idc sorry. Respect the effort though.

He’s not even as bad of a player as the vlr analysts make him out to be, I am starting to think he’s just incredibly unlucky.

wait it isn't rossy?

is this one being streamed anywhere?

Cries in not having a major yet

Massive W

E xolos lazer from latam
Onsl2yers from korea
Whatever sa/oce teams make it to apac as long as it isn’t enigma
Fpx and bbl in emea, fpx deserves better and Bbl need to help make turkey a force to be reckoned with
Loud in Brazil
Sen/tsm/100t/ any “washed” team really in na. It feels bad even though I’m not really fans of any of them and I wanna see them bounce back.
And obviously igzist in Japan ALL THE WAY BABYYYYY MASTERS 2 INCOMING LFGGG

MASSIVE W for bleed, sadge for sharks and i hope gaabxx gets a good team. also as an igzist fan i am sadge that the thing with ask didn't work out, but the drop of pepper was not unexpected at all. overall W article though!

i mean idt there were a lot, they're just very vocal, dare i say loud?

people will hate on you for this, but honestly? kind of a banger

Wait how is the cameraman Iceland themed though

The problem for me is I’ve played so much valorant that cs looks too dark for me, idk maybe I’m just blind as hell

benkai best cypher no cap

Me but tbh wait a bit, the next match is the real make or break for most people’s

Zeta barely, INCREDIBLY narrowly beats optic 2-1. They get 2-0ed by drx but it’s much closer than last time. At least, this is me on hopium, take it as you will

Personally super biased towards this one https://www.vlr.gg/41065/skross-is-dogshit
