What doing?? They had full B control but decided to run to A?

Headhunter is too op IMO, but with nerf it would become useless.

maybe but both of them are really good skyes

He is one of the best skyes in the world

I mean TL was literally just getting outaimed and had no idea what was going on. How many times TL player would just turn their backs against the enemies. Like I understand your point, but TL individuals played like shit.

L1NK is good, but he lost so many crucial duels this game.

Zeta: 1.78
Liquid: 1.88
on Unibet

Zeta clearing tower: Astra suck to breach util combo
Liquid clearing tower: Rope up -> die to shorty

This map was terrible from every Liquid member outside of Nivera. Terrible terrible map.

I just don't understand that what they did before this game? Feels like every player just woke up and went straight into this game. Bad aim, bad decision making, clueless, no plan.

camping nest with shorty every rounds, but Liquid doesn't do anything to do get him out just running in without util kekw

Liquid are just having terrible game. They can't hit anything when firepower is one of their strongest points. Also their plan just seems bad. And they just seem clueless no idea where enemy might be and constantly turning back against enemy etc.

tower + shorty is fucking op tho if they don't even try to clear it with breach

Bad aim and pacing from TL currently

Egg, Soulcas, Nivera, Jesus and Lee Sin what else do you want

ScreaM Raze on Split Aware

NA egos too big so they have to constantly prove that they are the best aka shit talk. While EU pros are more humble and don't want to burn bridges or have bad blood with anyone because that might hurt they connections and this is because EU has more nationalities, languages and cultures so it may not be as easy to rebuild those bridges and in a way you are more alone than in NA where most people know each other etc. My analysis.

Dep. ScreaM and Mixwell good shouts.

first NA playoff win since 1967 W

yes ofc

riot knows how to make money

0/8

One thing to note about masters thus far -- NA is looking extremely strong. Maybe as a result of better living conditions/funding compared to some of the 3rd world countries competing, but the strats and pace run by Optic/The Guard are so obviously leagues ahead of the other regions. I think that us as Valorant fans should be thankful that these NA teams continue to innovate and shake up the meta.

So just like Fnatic

OpTic is just like Fnatic and see what happened when they lost Derke

Derke

Derke

Mixwell has best Chamber utility in the world IMO. Outside of ult*

Maybe getting hundreds of negative comments and DMs may not be the best experience. Guy like Sinatraa could literally murder someone and there would still be people attacking the victim's family.

Its crazy how much firepower Derke adds. Braveaf adds quite a lot of firepower as well.

For sure. The game against LOUD was close.

Fnatic: 2 subs, one of them being their superstar player.
Liquid: Looked like shit before Masters and changed their comps on pretty much all maps. LOUD is hyped and it wasn't bad game for a team that wasn't even supposed to be there.
G2: Looked bit shaky still especially when it comes to players like nukkye and Meddo. Also scrappy team so you can't look too much on round scores alone IMO.
And then we don't have FPX there or M3C who just looked exhausted against G2.
I think Fnatic with their full roster would have won the tournament same can be said for M3C. I think both of those teams have showed the highest level of competitive Valorant so far in 2022. Don't know about FPX.

COPIUM

Not embarrassing for team that placed 4th in EMEA.

nah Nivera wasn't just hitting his shot on Ascent. Can't blame agent pick.

He saw one of the Zeta players doing it

So far one of the bests for sure.

Jamppi is so good when he is feeling it. Good rifling, good op and really flexible.

They legit have admins on same call who understand English speaking team like Liquid. If they did something wrong they would have been caught. I'm pretty sure they can have small talk as long as they don't discuss the game. All teams speak a little during techs.

I'm so happy they are putting him on Jett. He is just so good

such dumb rule if thats true

also just changed comps

Gambit

JAMPPI NATION AND WE LIVE IN IT

For sure. Or more like he isn't underrated by the people who follow EMEA closely, but he is really unknown.

No worries. First game for G2. While Zeta has been warming up for multiple days. Also G2 is scrappy team. Win is all that matters.

COPIUM

G2 just shaky and getting outaimed.

I don't know. I just read rumors here on vlr and twitter.

Maybe Vitality found better fit. They don't seem to have duelist player in their rumored roster. Or maybe they actually signed JUGi COPIUM

Wasn't Mickebwoy supposed to join Vitality? Or at least there was rumors about it. (if it was vitality)

That wasn't rng. Zeta knew he can still be there, but lost the duels.
