Some of these EMEA teams are stupid af. Pearl has always been the weakest map and there's still teams who decide to attend internationals with perma bans that isn't Pearl. I don't remember was it Fnatic or something who did the exact same thing some event. Doesn't make any sense considering that no one plays this shitty map in EMEA officials.
I genuinely dont understand why would they ever ban Split over Pearl. Their Split might be weak, but surely its better than this shit considering that they have played Split before. No one in EMEA plays Pearl in officials.
Guys could just hold smoke but decide to two man spam the smoke until running out of ammo. After that Vyse ults and sits still waiting it to run out.
Likely spent around 150€ in total including battle passes.
Honestly not bad if this happened. purp0 on flex would be nice to see as he looked best on that role in tier 2. UNFAKE deserves a chance IMO, but obviously I can't tell how his IGLing is. CyvOph looked decent and still young player. And Derke and Less are Derke and Less. But it is kind of crazy how we went from Derke, Less, Sayf and Trexx to potentially something like this. Feels unfinished somehow like something was missing.
He is IGL though and when he was playing on Spain(?) he was performing very well individually. Haven't watched him for while, but IMO he should be one of the stronger IGL prospects.
Yeah it is. Qck is cheap pad and the top layer will get worn out and starts peeling from sides with time and becomes more inconsistent. In comparison I just threw my dusty LGG to washing machine and it came out perfectly fine.
Likely Ronaldo or Messi because theres big groups of people everywhere who knows one of them. I think the difference makers are random countries in like Africa and Asia. It will stack up quickly.
LGG Saturn. Almost same feel to every basic control pad like G640 and SteelSeries Qck, but way better quality for good price. And honestly quality(consistency) is only thing that matters after you know do you like speed, or control or.... IMO.
I get you, but Ardiis wasn't that bad when he quit and he was on struggling team. Not sure how he would do rn but I think he deserves a chance in VCT again. He was still decent duelist and he is pretty flexible as well.
He was talking about creating tier 2 team with Sayonara and Zyppan and if I'm not wrong he said there was a proper org that was willing to make it happen.
I don't like either but true. Tom/Mitch casting is better while they are fine on desk as well. Ender/Mini casting is shit and desk ok.
there is no goal just enjoy life as much as possible
We are sending FNC, TH and TL.
All these teams are insane man, our region has incredible depht, these 3 teams could legit win Toronto...
Can we say the same about other regions? I don't think so.
APAC looks kinda meh with GEN G being the only decent team.
America is washed, their 'best' team SEN got absolutely steamrolled by a weak looking G2, nothing to say about MIBR, they fucking lost to 100T.
China, 0 team region, they are terrible and EDG was carrying their ass.
There's almost no chance that EMEA's don't bring the trophy home this time.
Yeah and that is why its stupid. Valuing marketing and clout over level of play is wrong. Teams should drive to be as good as they can (or at least develop talent) while giving chances to those players who have proven themselves in lower tiers. Riot likes it ofc, but that is still stupid. There is absolutely no world where someone like Bstrd would deserve a chance over multiple tier 2 players.
Hasn't Sayf made it clear over and over again that he doesn't want to play duelist? That is why he switched roles. Obviously if that keeps him in tier 1 and other roles won't, he might change his mind.
From tier 2 I can only think Starki and UNFAKE really. Starki has done well with EP and has performed individually, while UNFAKE hasn't really won anything but he used to be pretty good fragger while IGLing. Obviously I don't know how good IGLs they really are. Could also be Foxie from their academy roster, but his fragging is pretty weak.
Click farmed his tier 2 league, he would absolutely dominate in GC scene
That would be stupid reasoning even if true. Investing into players whose potential success is extremely questionable over players who have grinded tier 2 with good performances just because of gender would be insanity.
They aren't bad, but top CS teams and players are constantly perfecting the way you play CS to the smallest of things and timings. While in other hand Valorant teams and players are not playing even close to the same perfection and likely never will due to metas etc. And this isn't even some "well CS is older game" thing. The "skill ceiling" will always be lower and that shows in results.
Well it can get boring, but IMO best team should dominate. If there is new winner every event like in Valorant is just shows that the wins are more about adaptation/fitting meta than being a consistent good team. More potential for flukes. Astralis dominated for long because they were by far the best team and played the most perfect CS for that time.
For series The Clone Wars 100%. It added so much to the prequels. By far the most influential Star Wars show. Rebels is also very good outside of the art style. The Bad Batch was good. Andor S1 and S2 is by far the best live action Star Wars show. The Mandalorian S1 and S2 were good especially for the time. Skeleton Crew was surprisingly good even if its aimed for younger audience. At least its clear the people making it actually cared. Rest of the live action shows are shit aka Obi-Wan, The Acolyte, Ahsoka, The Mandalorian S3, The Book of Boba Fett. All garbage with lazy production value.
For movies The Revenge of the Sith is my favorite, Rogue One/A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back are all top tier. Attack of The Clones and Phantom Menace are decent (AOTC my favorite as child). Not fan of sequels, but The Force Awakens > The Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker. Solo was pretty decent and bit underrated IMO.
Guild Leo was world class though. Many ranked him as top 5 EMEA even back in 2021/20. Fnatic was just first team that he could win events with. He has been one of the most respected and highly rated EMEA players since forever pretty much and has shown over and over again how good he is and has won events.
Messages don't mean anything. You could be in happy long relationship and still get technically SAd by your partner if there is no consent in the moment. But sure Florescent likely won't get any punishment anyways because you really can't prove something like this that happened year ago.
I have very high hopes for Comeback. He is the tier 2 player I've had the most faith in. But he is joining M8s who can be very on and off team and first English speaking team so who knows how he will do. But overall I think he should do well and be more consistent than Xeus.
The Guard a t2 team? They literally made it to international event and played in tier 1 league. Technically G2 (The Guard core) were a tier 2 team, but they really aren't comparable to other tier 2 teams in that sense. They just didn't make it to franchising.
but yes obviously G2 is the best "tier 2 team"
IMO Comeback is better for sure. Reminds to be seen, but I think he is ready for tier 1 and I think he will do well. Fully believe that he has potential for being top tier 1 level eventually. While for Xuss I think he is more of tier 2 level for now. He has shown some good stuff, but I doubt he would do super well in tier 1. Maybe decent for bottom team. Xuss has been playing well in tier 2 for long now so would want to see him get a chance, but at the same time the fact that no team has signed him yet could show that they don't see him being good enough or weak in trials etc.
Its pretty good. Season 1 is overall good, but IMO Season 2 is pretty mediocre outside of like 2 episodes. To note that I liked the first game(s1), but didn't really like the second(s2, and s3 when it comes out).
so small and hard to press and low feedback. DAV3 has big clicky ones. It matters if you need to click side button fast like melee in Overwatch
Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro
Used to use G Pro Superlight, but it had shit buttons compared to DAV3. Especially side buttons were bottom tier.
True but bit overrated IMO. Leo and Chronicle both were top tier 1 talent. Kaajak and Alfajer were top tier 2 talent. Crashies no idea but he has a lot of experience and past success. Hiro, Enzo, BraveAf etc were pretty average and something you would expect from picking decent tier 2 talent. Like sure they have had success, but its more about their system and existing core that is making it work.
Not wrong, but he was one of if not the best looking duelists in tier 2 EMEA last year. He would have gotten into VCT no matter what(not Apeks). He/Apeks just ended up choosing Fnatic.
he didnt expect benjyfishy to jump out so quick, its fine
He was talking shit about Vitality (EWC qualifier game). How they need roster changes, proper IGL and he should step in etc.
Seems like it. I partly understand why they might want to hide it because its serious topic, but if this was any other pro there would be bunch of posts and no damage control. r/ValComp and this site seem to be full on damage control for some reason. I understand clear bait posts, but many serious ones as well.
Well isnt that the case in majority of places? How can it be proven if there isn't any proof?
He is good. And flexible as well. Very underrated/undertalked player.
he had good map overall but fucked up couple rounds that ended up costing them
Not sure will they as hes had short time with them, but he has been by far their worst player so far in my opinion. I think he is dragging them down rn.
So? And comparing overweight(not giga overweight) to drug addiction isn't it. And point is that some just don't simply give a fuck about exercising or thinking what they eat. They want to live life how they want and enjoy it. So why even comment on it? They very well know what to do if they want to lose weight, and know the downsides. And I say this because it seems like something some just don't understand that not everyone wants to live "healthy" lifestyle.
because not everyone gives a fuck about this type of stuff. Some people genuinely think every person cares enough getting fit. Some just want to live comfortably and not care too much.
Alfajer has finally activated and thats huge for Fnatic. He has been pretty quiet until playoffs.
That is so shit. Understandable from Riot considering we have VCT games today but still... I thought this day was going to be full of Valorant but at least we have the 2 VCT games.
Yeah I would say TL 60-40 BBL as well. I think it comes down to Lewn and Serial. Lewn has to perform for BBL to win, and if Serial has impact like last match then I think TL should win. But honestly seems like BBL always surprises and they are on good form right now.
monsteerr is sentinel player or was most of his career. Monsteerr sentinel, baddyG smokes.
Hopefully he can adjust into new role. He has had some popoff performances but I'm not fully convinced. But they are definitely building something interesting.
