All I'm gonna say is that the proof is there, if Madrid had single elim like the Kick Off playoffs then GENG are the champions.

Yeah I knew it was coming after that map 2

But it's literally the truth, SEN won the tournament thanks to double elim, and so many SEN fans tried to say that double elim means nothng :/

To be fair, Demon1 vs'd prime aspas, Less, and the rest of LOUD. I don't think the comparison holds up.

Congrats to SEN and I'm happy af for you guys but this Masters Madrid was just filled with fluke competition (also 8 team tourney :/), Kick Off playoffs should've been double elim and SEN is proof of that considering they would've been out after losing to GENG in the Madrid playoffs, Riot really screwed up with this one in terms of competitive integrity and I hope SEN can actually prove that they're the best in Shanghai.

For all the butthurt SEN fans, this thread would've still been made even if SEN got 3-0 39-0'D aced every round. This thread still holds up even if SEN didn't qualify to begin with.

This Masters is by far the least creditable one so far with how big of an asterisk it has, even worse than FPX's ban for Masters Reykjavik. There's never been single elim playoffs for Masters/Champions qualifications for a reason, not even for LCQ. There's also never been a Masters/Champions event with less than 10 teams. Look at the logic please!

It's because GENG threw this series, and FNS knows that.

prefiring expectations with nothing to back it up is dumb, that's why you got clowned

what about the rest of the players?

Not really, last map looks hype though

You didn't watch the final? i'd say it's fair

Not at all, wtf?

the fact that it even reached icebox is a sign that SEN will probably win, GENG don't deserve it at this point

you are not watching this series, GENG almost tossed a 3v5 that had Zekken die to his OWN NADE

SEN trolls -> GENG trolls -> SEN trolls -> GENG troll, this series is making saves look like full buys

I cant this shit man this final is one of the all time worse display of skills

and then geng immediately give SEN a thrifty haha

This shit is actually depressing to watch

geng almost threw that 3v5 still oh my god can someone bring back 2023 Champs

this finals is so ass, vct actually got worse

contention for best player itw for 5 months straight is forgotten for a single elim loss...? What's with the discredit

and you're also discrediting all of Demon1's performances last year for a single elim loss...

he is single handedly gonna win SEN this map, props

LMFAO

oh no

lying like that is crazy

I could see it :/

Every international final last year had teams playing at their absolute best (PRX is arguable though), so thats a lie ngl

Nah not really at all, they completely threw Bind and cant close out easy rounds right now

Honestly yea

GENG are playing uncharacteristically poor and yet they're still up 2-1

^

this isn't the GENG we saw two days ago :/

How many times are teams going to get punished for throwing against SEN? Are there just no teams in this tournament that can close out a 4-6 round advantage?

probably the lowest quality of gameplay ive seen in a final so far, GENG deserved to lose that round but somehow didnt

hehe

He gets a random 2k through the smoke in the deciding round, I swear like 80% of his kills are like that

bot reply 🤢🤢🤢 https://tracker.gg/valorant/match/a252f177-bb7f-461a-a353-65e2ba0aba74

I hope TenZ doesn't read what you've been saying is all I'm gonna say :(

ironically you're the one that's by far the least empathetic right now, it's truly unfortunate :(

I bet you actually think that TenZ would be happy reading the shit you're saying too :(

"This explains why he zoned out in the match and he was only thinking about kyedae" you defended this :(

great to know that you think TenZ let his team, fans, and himself down specifically and only because his gf got sick. Like I said before, I'm sure he will be super happy with you guys using his own gf as a scapegoat for his performance without any knowledge whatsoever of his thoughts or even the actual situation itself in the moment. That's totally not messed up at all :D

Also can't believe you defended that AceGamer line unironically ngl, you are cooked!!!

I'm praying TenZ doesn't read this thread holy shit, "This explains why he zoned out in the match and he was only thinking about kyedae" ????? 😭😭😭

"what does tenz's opinion on this change any things the fans will want to say" you are so cooked 😭

Are you mentally handicapped, I'm replying back to someone who is literally saying that TenZ couldn't focus on the match as if he knew the guy personally. "How is this any relevant", read the context next time you wanna jump into shit in two different replies.

You guys wanna insult the pro player with an excuse like this and that's legit pathetic, I'm sure he's super happy knowing that people think he played poorly and let his team down because his gf got sick for sure, amazing moral stance you guys have.

#24 there's your supporter.

And we're pushing this dumb narrative still, let's shut up about it then.

#3? what are you even talking about lol

By her and not by the man who was actually playing the game. Let TenZ own up to it as a player dude.

????????????

put yourself in TenZ's shoes for a sec, do you honestly think he'll be content with using his gf going to the hospital as a scapegoat like that? You're being weird bro.

oh my god her ult looks fucking busted theres no way man, a 2nd life thats your decision to make is way too useful that shit better be a billion orbs

I think you're putting way too much trust in this community to be honest lol
