true

how is 25 yo boomer?

Fnatic, NaVi, Furia, Leviatan/Giants hard to say, NRG

I think that for EMEA as a whole its good outside of like Fnatic. I could imagine teams like Liquid, NaVi, Giants(not sure cuz their Icebox was pretty good) etc doing well on Bind. And ofc Fnatic's Bind was good as well.

Recon is easily the best feeling Phantom out there. I think its because the design is kind of bulky and has even visual handgrip making it feel more accurate and less recoil in your head.

Yeah but I still think they showed good potential again. Some great strats/reads and nice individual stuff. They also lost some unlucky rounds like that ANGE1 blind spray on Split and Zyppan 3k on Fracture.

far from braindead. They spotted solo player behind them and decided to overwhelm him with numbers and utility.

I'm so happy Vitality sticked with ceNder all this time and took him to franchising. He showed great potential in tier 2 for so long, but was never talked about.

So you can pay 15$ for gamepass and then 35$ for game total of 50$? I didn't know I paid 70€

Wait how is it 35$ if you have gamepass?

I've heard that people have FPS and bug issues on PC, but haven't tested myself yet. Last game was good and from what I've heard this feels pretty similar but with additions and ofc new worlds and story.

no

KCorp is people's team

That same Omen OP was giving LOUD big trouble in Lock In

ovaoa?

He looks so much more comfortable on this team now and that's nice to see. Sayf has been popping but also hacing nAts putting up numbers is great for TL.

True I really like how he plays. He usually makes so much space for the team with this dashes and updrafts and often gets traded well. One of my favorites entries in terms of movement.

EMEA best sheriff region easily even in international events

Giants 2-0 Liquid
BBL 2-1 Heretics
KOI 2-1 KC (if Scream is on while Wolfen/Starxo aren't then KC's firepower could win them a map otherwise 2-0)
FUT 0-2 FNATIC
Vitality 2-1 NAVI

No shit that Fnatic is rolling everyone. They pretty much rolled every team in Lock In outside of LOUD who almost only made a comeback after going 0-2. But other teams are definitely making NaVi sweat. Even KC had relatively close game against them. Like you mention NRG struggling while at the moment are likely below both Fnatic and NaVi.

Copium

True. Like I get that's there 3 versions of each that all have unique sounds etc but holy fuck is it still expensive and bad sign.

I think Gambit would do fine still. I think they kind of fell off because everyone watched and learned how they played. Like nAts changed the way sentinels were seen/played etc. Their players of Redgar, Chronicle, nAts and Sheydos are still relevant and up to par individually d3ffo is bit hit or miss, but I actually think he would still be good enough for current meta. Also especially nAts looked more comfortable on M3C who still were top 5 EMEA team for most of last year. And Gambit were playing Reyna on Haven because it was their perma ban.

Ofc it hard to say because teams would adapt mid game and not just follow their 1.5 year old gameplan. If they were just same everything 2021 Gambit then they would struggle, but as I said their individuals as well as adaptation would win them games I think because as I said this same roster could still be playing on top level.

coaching: ?
dualist: Fnatic - Derke > Aspas
operator: Fnatic - not biggest fan of Derke's op, but cant remember Aspas' op being that crazy either
controller: Loud - because Boaster isnt that good individually
igl: equal/fnatic - Fnatic just won so...
initiator: Fnatic - Leo clears
sentinel: Loud - Less is better sentinel main than Alfajer

Fnatic played with a sub and BBL isn't terrible team especially on Ascent. Their good form is actually pretty high.

I mean most clutches happen because the enemy team played poorly. If you play perfect 3v1 you shouldn't lose.

true

violent person = fat person
like holy fuck

Why would anyone have to "put in the work" to not be made fun of? I have never understood this logic. Let people live their lifes how they want. If someone doesnt want to in their mind waste even 30 min for something they don't enjoy then let them.

hope the NA noobs are happy . your best team ruined the "best" EMEA player . NRG is embarrassing .

Says the one defending braziL

Brazilians act like the world is against them and how they are the underdogs while having the most biased superiority complex fanbase out there

Brazilians with their superiority complex incoming

I just pointed to the comment above who said that.

You can't just compare team to individual player. Derke carried Fnatic for long time. While Aspas joined the Brazilian superteam. Now Derke is on European superteam and well he just won Lock In.

Maybe not the most consistent, but calling Aspas better because he's been "this good for longer" is just total bs considering that Derke has arguably been top 3 duelist since 2021.

That was in 2021 and he still performed well in Champs like you said and where was Aspas during that time? Playing in tier 2 of Brazil. Derke has been one of the best since 2021 and has for most part been top performer no matter the meta or event.

For sure. Plus Derke Raze and Chamber > Aspas

Paris or Barcelona/other Spanish city

Derke, Jamppi, hoody, Bonecold + Famsii/H1ber/Polvi/Iluri ez

Pearl carried them in Champions

Derke owns Aspas

BBL always decent they just can't win games

Molsi is usually so good, but hes been bit on and off on Vitality and especially off today.

True, but tbf Aslan got 1 through smoke and spike was on bad spot

KC would 26-0 DRX

Boo & MiniBoo >

New team, but Derke would have dropped 30 already

7ssk7 was good on NaVi but he hasn't been looking too hot since leaving NaVi

Derke
Molsi
Boaster
Leo
Less
