what is your price? i will consider it if you pay me

DRX will always find a way to get 5th-6th when they qual to internationals. if they don't shit the bed in the playoffs LB, this entire ranking will be wrong.

it might as well be offseason for fans of the two teams - we won't be seeing them for a couple of months anyways.

you folded under ZERO pressure. you would have to pay me to make me act like this, even on the internet. what next, are you two going to engage in esex?

but every win has required some amount of luck. it's the truth. and it's still subjective because that is what YOU think. YOU think that the community perceived a certain win as a fluke or as a non fluke, and you actually don't know if the community actually perceives it as a fluke (or at least a sample of the community that is present on vlr.gg) because you didn't include those options. do you see the problem? you based it on what the loud minority agreed were flukes, when in a way an argument could be made that any win or loss is a fluke, especially in a game like valorant where the best teams rise and fall within months.

wait what you are typing like you are from the future. this is quite clever. is this your version of manifesting the teams that make it to toronto?

so you are biased. thanks for letting us know. if you are taking a survey, you have to be objective when you make it. give everyone all the options available so that you can get a true representation of what people think. this survey means nothing now. not that it meant anything anyways, but it is not legitimate anymore.

Well I can only judge based on what you give me. I also tend to portray an uncharacteristic side of myself online, so you could never know who I am through internet posts. But I find that the hardest time to hide who you really are, whether it is online or in real life, is when you are caught in an adverse circumstance or a difficult situation. Your response to negative criticism was so blatantly ignorant (and you had the same reaction to every comment criticising you on your iconic thread) that it was undeniably a side of you that is genuine. It is really hard to fake that kind of behaviour in those circumstances, nay I say it is actually impossible to fake that kind of behaviour, especially when it was something as personal to you, such as that google sheets document that you must have spent a long time on..

it doesn't take a PhD to know what the truth is. it simply takes not being blind. you are so entitled and annoying that it's unbelievable.

you cannot compare jawgemo to any duelist player unless they are top 10 itw on duelist. idk what you are arguing... that kinggg is just as good as jawgemo on the agents they play?? absolutely not on duelist.

no. jawgemo is phenomenal on duelist agents. kinggg is mid on duelists. that is a huge difference in agent pool. kinggg is an amazing player if he isn't forced onto the entry role.

sure sure. if the truth takes hours to comprehend then I will sit this one out. thankfully that is not how real life works.

oh you provided us with plenty of entertainment with that thread, i will give you that much at least.

he created a thread about how 100T management were unappreciative of his work. what was his work, you may ask? it was a ONE HUNDRED PAGE google sheets document filled with yap. now i have a question for you: what kind of fool of a coach would waste HOURS sifting through one hundred pages of nothing with some (i use some very liberally here) actual analysis sprinkled in. in fact, even if all 100 pages were full of analysis, I know that no tier 1 coach who is worth anything has the time or energy to go through all of that. m4 received a lot of flame but some actual constructive criticism, which he completely chose to ignore, while continuing to insist that it was not his fault, that his effort should have meant something to a tier 1 team and and that everyone criticising him (even if they were giving actual genuinely respectful feedback) was gaslighting him into thinking that he did something wrong. it is somewhat of a legendary thread for this year simply because of the sheer audacity m4 showed in the entire thread. it was so much fun.

it's so funny seeing people flaming him after the first half of lotus just to turn around and do this. i just know that the benjy haters are SEETHING right now.

average asselasstia terrible L take.

Isn't it because their takes and predictions are awful and wrong that nobody likes them?

Your wording makes it sound like puberty is the latest recreational drug that kids take nowadays lol.

There isn't anybody to "watch out for". Idk why you think this site has people to actually be worried about. Also this reeks of engagement baiting. You have added nothing of value to the forums with this thread. If you have nothing to say, then don't speak at all.

allat

no i am telling you this is TLOP levels of production put into this song. it seriously reminds me of what kanye used to be capable of. the lyrics are pretty awful even with context but it sounds amazing. i am not diddy, i was a minor less than a year ago so idk how that even makes sense but whatever.

COUSINS is actually a goated song if you ignore the lyrics

I wonder whether there is potential for deadlock kj comps or vyse cypher comps. Either way, I think double sentinel comps will be back. If tejo wasnt added, I think this would have been the meta instead. Deadlock vyse comps are already quite powerful.

G2 had LAN winning potential long before tejo was even released. I will keep falling for these ragebaits if I have to to make sure that G2 haters don't get their hopes up

Others literally showed you his counter. Damaging util, waiting it out, don't take 1v1 fights, flash then shoot as long as it isn't an OP, literally the outlaw counters him very well. I'm not even that good at the game and I gave you all these solutions. Now stop whining just because you are an op crutch. You are crashing out because you can't do what you always did to get kills without any skill whatsoever.

you are complaining because the agent does what it is supposed to... bully people who op crutch and entry sites, even without movement util. why are you complaining? he has no flashes, no stuns, no dashes, no blinds, and yet you think he is OP?

trent is top 3 in americas on sova and fade. he was never a tejo one trick. where did this narrative come from? do people not remember his absurd sova clips and plays in 2022?? what in the recency bias is this?

i have to agree. termi excels at developing new talent to hit their peak and even at encoraging synergy in the team. but he just doen't translate those into results for the team. he has to be doing something wrong because there is no way he is flopping with 5 amazing players repeatedly.

I would put him third but not having him at all is actually a crime.

maybe a way to choose the next map - so the 10 players get a choice to choose a map out of 3 and then you play that. that would be nice i guess. the 3 maps are randomised every time.

No. This list is recency bias. Murizzz is literally the worst Brazilian player to ever make franchising. He is awful

Then what's this entire thread about??? Shall we just take their word for it?

No capital letter at the start of your sentence. No apostrophe and no capital I in I'm. No full stop at the end of the sentence. You must be slow since you didn't bother to have perfect grammar. Do you see what I did here? They did nothing to antagonise you and you responded by calling him retarded. This sounds like an underlying insecurity of yours that you are projecting onto the user with a British flag.

Over how many years? How many LAN appearances has fnatic made. Normally that would support your case but I think we can all admit that his teammates carried him to most of those LAN appearances. The performances at LAN fall on the igls and coaches because at the highest level, it's about strats and mind games instead of pure fragging power.

Can confirm. Source: the ghosts under my bed. Trust me. They are never wrong.

Ayrin, dephh from 2022 XSET, link from TL, deffo and kiles from acend, this is just off the top of my head and what others may not have mentioned in this thread yet.

What? Where did this come from?

This is the last place I expected to see an SS reference lol.

On that note, also kaboose who I think retired from pro play after leaving ENVY. also a lot of former pros in NA challengers vanished after 2022

The team always choked in the playoffs. The stats look good only because of the group stages. Rb was probably the worst choker but no matter who played duelist (whether it was rb or buzz), they never did well at all. I watched every single game that DRX played for the last 3 years and I can tell you honestly that the team just crumbled in international tournament playoffs. Buzz did it with T1 as well in the finals vs g2 but like I said, a life game from meteor gave them that win. Buzz is far too inconsistent to not be called a choker. I loved that drx team so it really hurts to admit this, but there was nothing else to blame for their loss apart from them just not shooting back and being antistratted. But even that shouldn't make you lose so badly in playoffs, no matter how hard your opponents try to punish your strats.

Yep. Sylvan and meteor carried them to the win. Especially buzz. Luckily they had great teammates who could cover for their weaknesses, but where was all of that when they were on DRX? It was just the mako show every international playoffs. So disappointing, and now that meteor isn't having a life performance they are not good at all. 3rd seed for masters winners is simply unacceptable. Their win is not reproducible.

I already explained why I don't think they can be considered together but I can't be bothered to explain it again so let's agree to disagree.

You can't merge talking about igling and talking about in game performance when it comes to players. Igling is something that cannot be measured with numbers but with overall team performance and by watching matches, while performance is shown through stats. Talking about both simultaneously is not appropriate. Also why are you changing your mind? You were arguing before to other people that mako is worse both as an igl and in performance. Boaster is definitely a better igl. I would expect that much after igling for 4 and a half years now, compared to mako's 6 months. But his performance is vetter

I just think that people aren't seeing that the teams don't really show weaknesses until they start losing. DRX definitely suffered from their mid season roster shuffles because they looked shaky at best in their last 2 matches, even against T1. DRX should have closed out fracture against RRQ faster and should not have been battered by them on the next 2 maps. GENG though, I can't tell if they are looking strong or if talon and boom choked. It could be that they were working on integrating ash from when he was on geng academy but idk.

No. Mako has been ridiculously good for far longer than boaster. 2022 and early 2023 mako is higher than any peak a controller has ever hit apart from maybe karon but I don't think you are ready for that conversation. He has been better than boaster for at least 2 and a half years and you are suffering from recency bias because mako's fragging suffered while he was igling. Now he is off igling and surprise, he is back to top fragging even when the team loses. You can argue that fnatic overall is better than drx but not that boaster is better than mako.

He played with 4 chokers for 3 years. The chokers leave and then his team is plagued with roster shuffles for all of 2024 and 2025. Call it cope but this is why mako hasn't come close to winning. He has the skill to be on a roster winning team. If only he left DRX earlier, both T1 and GENG wouldn't have hesitated to pick him up. But now they are developing their own insane smokes players in sylvan and karon, so no chance of that anymore. What makes mako even more impressive in my eyes is his ability to pick up kills with relatively mid aim compared to other pros. His gamesense and ability to find timings and make the right plays nets him more kills than his aim does sometimes. Of course he has some pop off moments but would be more of a quietly consistent player on a capable team, instead of a hard carry controller, especially off the igl role.

Does this mean the next agent we get will be Canadian? Possible, if riot is trying to link each of the events to the new content in the game.

They have plats on that premier team btw. Definitely not a team that can make it to tier 2 valorant. Also danii is actually immortal iirc. Don't ask me how I know all of this.

I will gladly accept the origin vandal. Thanks cloudberry
