Bouta hit diamond 💎

FNC in my mind but their loss does give me doubts

I used to be so careful about what I said on here but the deeper I go down this rabbit hole the more I’ve begun to just rage bait with the occasional normal stuff. I’m a long way away from full time baiter but I feel like I’m slipping into the dark side

First time making one of these and I’m tearing up man 🥲

I more mean vitality and talon can def beat lev as opposed to lev look bad

FPX?

I’d be happy with this and it definitely seems likely, although lev are a bit suspect atm

Where trace esports levelled up on the international stage, BLG genuinely looked awful today, even compared to how they played regionally. It’s upsetting to see how far they were from their potential, especially considering how crazy the other team people were writing off have been playing. And now all the record level China glaze has backfired into even more China hate. Shameful performance

thats not really how it works

well the americas teams will just go home in a couple days instead

next map should be a 1 site map
who's with me

Yes possibly the 2 best attacking ascent teams oat (ik it’s an early call)

STOP TAKE IT BACK BLG WIN

That is true but I worry KRU have cooked up because they floated sunset against DRX and also BLG have a fair bit of tape on them now

But I want both of us to win 😭😭😭

Surely BLG pick icebox over sunset right. KRU icebox is pretty bad. Also I’d say FPX win haven they’re pretty solid on that map

Their deadlock stuff looks really good as well like they must’ve really been grinding it

Yeah and having icebox as a perma is a little wack cause it’s not many team’s favourite map

BLG flair fs

Spring <3

Ik I’m China glazer but I wanna talk about why I think Trace were able to beat both these teams. Lev and Vit are very much individualistic teams, being uplifted by a couple players with others there to just support and enable the stars. Trace have the best fundamentals and discipline out of any Chinese team, with amazing trades and ability to freeze a round. What this means is that against star players, trace can trade out really well, and against players like c0m or kicks they can just win fights. Trace are amazing obviously but I do think they’re able to beat these teams simply with amazing team play and trading, and I’d love to see play against some less individual teams to test their macro.

No I don’t believe so

Well it’s gotta be 1 team from each region winning in lowers and if we want EMEA vs AMER and CN vs APAC then KRU FPX PRX VIT all win

I think everyone agrees that no team is better than bilibili gaming

KRU are going home tomorrow lil bro

Sooo many games have been so good, no bad teams for the first time ever, all regions look close for the first time I’d argue. Such a good event already even if BLG go home tomorrow 🥺🥺

YOOOOOOOOO TRACE DOUBTER WYA LETS GOOOO

its hard when you play against a team that can trade

WHO CALLED IT LMK DOWN BELOW

I’m seeing record levels of aspas hate rn but they don’t realise trace can just shut individuals down, just like they did sayf

I’ve really gotta start gambling…

The Chinese team winning people over has the least Chinese-style gameplay out of all the Chinese teams. It’s cool to see a team with cracked aimers truly adopt a disciplined strategic style with good macro from China and hopefully they can inspire other Chinese teams too

HELLO TRACE DOUBTERS

He’s not igl

I mean he’s trying his best

Got me bro

What do Vitality and Lev have in common? THEY ARE CARRIED BY THEIR STARS!!!! Sayf was SHUT DOWN by Trace and so that makes me think that they will SHUT DOWN aspas as well. "But lev have kiNgg or whatever" you may wonder, BUT VITALITY HAD TREXX AND TREXX > KINGG. Trace don't need to shut down everyone, but lev and vitality do need at least 2 people shooting. The wincon for Lev is to have both kiNgg and Mazino in peak form, and the trace guys need an off day. This is because BIANK >>>>>>>>> C0M and both FengF and Kai on senti DIFF THE TRAFFIC CONE. Thanks for reading go trace

they probably beat vitality but I don't think they'll be able to handle trace.
Kai jett = Aspas jett
FengF raze <= Aspas raze
Kai senti = Tex senti
FengF senti > Tex senti
Biank >>>>>> c0m
Luok1ng = kiNgg
Heybay < Mazino
Players are pretty evenly matched but I think trace can shut down aspas just like how they shut down sayf and kept him out of the game. I just don't think lev have the backbone without their star and won't win without an aspas carry

KRU arent winning anything bro who cares

FPXWIN

orrr norrrr the norrrn australiarrns are gorrrrrn

If they didn’t reverse sweep trace in lowers they’d have easily gotten past vitality and talon and maybe lev but instead they get death group. Just like how they were punished for beating fut at Shanghai. It’s heartbreaking man

This take makes no sense and is awful thanks for reading

Dw bro lev are in trace’s pocket

Feels like it's up there both games have been so stacked, these 4 teams can all contest for a title imo

why random zekken stray

this is a good post keep it up

I really don’t care for this team either way, not a fan or hater of this team. I think people calling for roster changes or coaching changes are kinda crazy like all the players are nuts, they’re just playing very disjointed and aren’t all on the same page with ideas. All they have to do to make a run is get that hivemind mentality back cause rn they just look like everyone is calling a different plan for themselves with no real direction or cohesion at all. With how they are now they aren’t leaving groups

☹️

TW: I have not watched a KRU game
BLG BAN HAVEN PERMA + HAVEN IS KRU BEST MAP
KRU abyss is NOT GOOD and BLG have kept it hidden so far which is scary af
KRU bind is REALLY BAD and BLG bind is REALLY GOOD
KRU icebox is ALSO REALLY BAD and BLG are NOT THAT BAD at icebox
Lets look at the maps and my estimated win rate for the teams
Ascent - BLG 60%
Bind - BLG 100%
Haven - KRU 100%
Icebox - BLG 90%
Sunset - BLG 60%
Abyss - UNKNOWN BUT BLG PROLLY BETTER
Lotus - KRU 75%
KRU will ban either bind or icebox and BLG will pick and WIN the other one for FREE as their map pick. BLG will BAN haven meaning KRU will have to pick LOTUS, which BLG could make an upset happen but KRU probably take this. Map 3 will be either ASCENT SUNSET ABYSS, which I'd favour BLG on all of those maps.
BLG 2-1 in my eyes
