I could see a team poaching half of oxygen's roster because it is so strong rn. Verno is 100% going to be a very sought after player for any franchised team.

I only have one ( delusional) hot take: DRX winning something for once.

Wow, what did I do to babysasuke? I didn't know you possessed more of a brain than three quarters of thr people on this site. I don't like this new look.

You have convinced me that maybe I wasn't completely correct in saying that the world champions, no matter how unpredictable their win was, earned that title and the players should get some respect.

But back to the main point, I do think that its not fair to the person who makes a thread to have everyone talk about a different topic.

Valorant community: treats women badly
Women in valorsnt: get defensive and angry to protect themselves
Valorant community: "why are women so toxic!! 😡😡😡"

They lost their first three games after losing to talon at lock in. And i know you spend enough time on this website to know that everyone jumps to conclusions too quickly. Also, the reason why everyone complained about bcj being replaced was because everyone thought that c0m should have been subbed out instead and because they forced bcj onto a role which he was uncomfortable on. Now tell me again that people didn't think that everyone thought EG didn't deserve to be franchised and that EG wasn't the worst NA team in the league. Finally, we have never seen jawgemo, c0m and boostio on a team apart from eg, so we don't know it it was potters strats and methods that put eg in positions to shine or if it was the players. So it makes sense that discussing whether these players can perform in a new environment would be interesting.

For igl, sure. But do you want nrg to get stomped again because it turns into a 4v5? And age clearly doesn't make you better when you reach 30+. His experience is better used to teach others, either through his streams or through coaching new igls.

Doesn't change the fact that johnqt is too inconsistent to compare to ethan, even considering igl duties. Drx has nothing to do with this, and unlike you, I don't feel the need to make my flair my whole personality on this website.

Ok s0m yeah he should have stayed but fns should just become a coach at this point and train another mini fns. His time is up. Fns is basically a dinosaur in the esports world.

Potato tomato he is still the best flashback initiator in the world.

Funny how they were the 4 worst players from NA in the league until bcj got subbed out. I can't believe how quickly everyone forgets the past.

So you prefer a mid player vs the best flex itw? I won't forget Johnqts shameful performance in ascension...

Then make a post about that instead? Also this thread also could have been interesting if you actually talked about the topic that was brought up.

Vit is now my favourite EMEA team because both sayf and trexx are united 🥰. I'm now praying on fnatics downfall so that Leo can join them as well. Reunite the best core in the world!

Because when there's too many 4 stars, you are going to run into some really dumb ones...

Uh did you read the post?

TF? Do you only farm out bad takes? Expected from a shitinels fan.

??? They haven't played yet??? And LOUD did beat them... by that logic fnatic doesn't stand a chance against LOUD

NA t2 talent don't need no help bro, pacific on the other hand.... Pacific tier two has so much opportunity that hasn't been tapped into yet unlike NA tier 2. Don't you agree? do you think toast has done an injustice by abandoning the NA tier 2 scene?

For americas I would say it's furia. They may not go to Madrid but they will surprise and upset if the players don't choke.

I'm downgrading myself. Wtf team tarik, you guys are not good at all :(

Team two because keloqz is really bad and team two is more well rounded

Boostio is already halfway to becoming a fraud. Joining 100T is like a curse at this point. Like, look at how much better ethan was on nrg and eg instead of 100T? And derrek is about to become the world's best sova with potters strats (if the leaks are real). I just don't understand what happens on 100T. They always fall short.

Could they beat BLG?

Drop the link to the tier list

Upfrag if you think team tarik will win. Tenz can't win a 9v1 so this is free for tariks team

Let wotter work her magic again. No one ever realised how good of a coach she was and now that we know what she can do, we know not to count eg out.

Wait will this team run three duelists or what? But also fpx is now looking like a top 3 team, as long as life does well

Can someone tell me how good Tyloo is rn? I know they used to be pretty decent but how about now?

Hooray! So happy for rb. Hopefully he does well and takes TEC to the top of the Chinese league. Definitely a W pickup.

There is a player on the flair of your team who clears bang by miles.

Not you forgetting that my goat mako is on the team too. Most of the things that drx did wouldn't have worked if not for makos really strong assists and good gamesense.

Honestly, I would agree. I wouldn't word it like that though. I would say that changes had to be made to the starting roster. Drxs biggest strength is also their biggest weakness: their set plays gave them consistency and also made them lose late into tournaments. I would say that apart from mako, the rest of the team needed a change. Not because they were bad, but because their predictability in their set plays and their playstyle caused them to hit a ceiling. They tried to change things up but it just didn't work with the team. The two new young players may or may not be the solution, but staying with the same core for the third year in a row wasn't working. We do t know if it was termi, but after what k1ng mentioned about termi, I don't think that's the case. I'm nor saying rb or zest are bad, in fact I think they are really good players. But maybe they weren't fitting well with the new playstyle that termi wanted to try.

I think verno is already better than all of them but crashies.

Snorted too many lines of copium...

Omg it suddenly makes so much more sense why oxygen is so good. Only the great bonkar himself could make a team this good.

But what if oxygen loses to the same Saudi team too? In that case, maybe we are underestimating Saudi league?

July 30th 2021

Idkif he was ever in the goat debate but cned must never be on that list. Not because I think he's a bad player, but because of how hard he fell off after the jett op meta got taken away. Even now, he hasn't recovered like he used to be in 2021 because now jett and chamber have been nerfed quite badly.

Sounds like a 10 year old made it

You know what I think? Maybe we should start believing pancada after he said last year that he does not wish to main controller agents full time anymore. Did no one notice how sacy and dephh were picking up that role, not pancada? There's no way that the management team on sentinels is so incompetent that they would miss out on subbing in the region's best smoker to play smokes unless pancada himself didn't want that. Idk it just seems so bizarre that he would not play smokes last year, and this year he would rather warm the bench than play on smokes.

Whenever money is involved, politics will find its way into it. I know that esports orgs normally run on a loss, but once they start making money, they may indirectly help the country that they are based in through tax and other ways. This means that politics will inevitably get involved with esports even though there is no reason for it.

YES MY GOAT MAKO 😍

MaKo the all time goat on controller!!! 😍😍😍😍

?? Ahh he's such a cutie pie 🥰😍

You're actually more delusional than the worst sentinels fans

💀💀💀😭😭😭

Not the delusional sen fans that think that sen is better than leviatan 😭

Hey don't drag a dying drx into this. That's not fair, completely uncalled for.

What? 50% of sen fans didn't even play valorant before tenz was on the team

Omg nrg washed nrg washed 🤓 losing to EG and tied against 100T wow nrg worst in americas league 🤓🤓
