the leaks of chapter 293 came out earlier today.

LNG ZEKA??????????

they really don't need roster changes. I think Jinggg and something should flex from just being a duelist to playing other agents (at least one of them can play vyse, kayo, and skye)

this reminded me of the BL vs U20 arc.........

this is straight up insanity.

reject definitely improved a lot, I think he underestimated RC's ability at least a little bit considering they got sayaplayer and hate for only almost 1 month

he was GREAT in CGZ, having him not play in a Tier 1 doesn't seem right for such a talented player like him

nzr is aspas' close friend, aspas wanted to leave LEV bc he doesn't want to play without nzr for some reason

even tho nzr isn't the IGL, he is underperforming a bit rn, hopefully he returns to a better form!

this isn't really considered as a choke

there's no reason not to like both!

I thought this was going to be a post about nzr, lots of people are calling him out

I'm with you. It seems a little bit blown out of proportion, the winning team gets a massive prize but the rest of the teams, well........

he probably means that since the French orgs went all out just for the qualification for Champions shows that the reason for all of these flabbergasting transfers is bc of EWC (bc they give a huge prize pool)

well, considering the state of NRG rn, if he doesn't do well, then no.

It is a complete gamble, but brawk should be given a trial for a T1 at the very least

pls get muto in a Tier 1 team...........

pros: more games to watch to fill in the gaps between Split 1 and Masters Toronto (iirc), orgs get more income

cons: ethical issues, MIGHT have reduced production quality (since most broadcast talent does not agree with Valorant joining EWC), might be promoted an absurd amount of times in official VCT broadcasts (especially in international events), and it might be as bad as sportswashing.

so who wins here?

if MIBR keeps improving, I honestly think they will give everyone in Americas a run for their money

:)

I wouldn't say Pacific has the highest chance of winning Bangkok, but DRX and T1 should never be counted out!

losing consz kinda sucks tho

if the MongolZ in CS can succeed just bc there is no DOTA scene in Mongolia, surely the MongolZ can succeed in Valorant too, right?

not to hurt anyone's feelings here, but I think if Sylvan played T1 would not have won against GEN.G

for u, it's fine

I'm going to watch the Americas games at 6 am in my timezone ;)

they've been overlooked since last year

they are in an upward trajectory, but I don't want them to steal that Champs spot if the other 3 teams are qualifying........

(I also root for RRQ if both JP teams are out lol, that Lotus game made me a permanent fan)

their Lotus game made them a bit tired, and revealed way too much strats

it's fine, NS still brings their A-game even if they lose. I mean, they got a map against DRX

I want this scenario to happen:

let Primmie team up with his friends at TLN Academy first

GEN.G's recovery from a slow start to potentially qualifying for Masters Bangkok is insane.

I want to see Snappy in Tier 1, can TLN pls let them team up for 1 split at least........

we don't know for sure, but hopefully Envy becomes way more successful in e-sports in the future!

this solution doesn't seem bad, a calculated risk but the benefits will be way greater

we can't tell much aside from the regional games, but their level of play will improve even by a little bit by the time Masters Bangkok starts.

tbf, I don't watch PUBG esports, but I believe u....

Actually, I haven't seen someone suggest Sungmin gaining full coaching authority to the team. This is like Muggle becoming the coach for EDG, this will significantly change the team's structure if that happens

G2 doesn't deserve this much hate, even tho their playstyle leans more towards macro, fundamentals, microadjustments, coordination, and execution.

I root for any Pacific and CN team in an international event!!!

it's fixed now!

WOOPS LMAO

but yeah, Hyunmin's time at Crest felt like a fever dream, he was just carrying his team on his back just like aspas in MIBR

but I want T1 to win tho

#DRXWIN

people who watched him during his tenure at RA would know how good he is.

woops, talked about the wrong person!

I think Hyunmin's VCJ tenure should be watched by more people, even if it's just the VODs

I was hoping CheongGak and Indigo would solve this problem even for a little bit......

sylvan is sick

DRX's rookies need more international exp, and who knows, they might even go on a run!

if anyone watches the games, they will subtly see carpe fragging for his team, autumn's team structure in T1 doesn't mesh with the players that well if u compared it to DRX

craziest part is they almost 2-0'd NS

a lil bit of bias, but Jemkin proved that he has the potential to be better than something

yep, they can't be really comparable bc both will put up similar performances in any game

RRQ are way stronger than people think

if T1 can get a better IGL, then they will be way stronger than they currently are

oh my goodness, HenBabyH with a reasonable take?!?!?!??!?

#DRXWIN !!!!!!!!!!!!
