took you a while to come up with this cope huh?

this is not "belief" buddy, this is factually true. if we're talking about purely average placements then NRG did better, there's nothing to "believe" in this. do you think before you speak?

they call the truth bait 🥱

factually true, the numbers don't lie 😹you can argue all you want about how "winning is all that matters" but it won't change this fact. you're bringing up irrelevant accolades, average them out and see which team was better 🥱

if we're talking purely in terms of average placements, NRG 2023 was better and more consistent than Sen 2024. this is even if you consider sen as being better than 75% of the teams that didn't qualify for shanghai (which they were not)

they're definitely better than the players MIBR, EG and C9 have + they could also go to other regions

I find it unlikely that none of them are getting trials

what is navi doing up there 💀

you're supposed to have fun by flipping coins to decide which player to kick, not by denying rumors

magnum in big 2025 is crazy

cook that fraud

how many champs did sen players win? a single player on NRG has more champs trophies than your whole team 🥱

"better teams like sen, 100T, c9" 💀💀💀at least make the bait believable

"never show why they are a top team" it's basically a whole new roster, what is this based on? 2023 NRG did decent and in 2024 the core of ethan, s0m and FNS had like 2 weeks to practice. why don't you prove to us how s0ntinels managed to be the second ever team to not make regional playoffs after a masters win? clearly a fluke if I've ever seen one

that's actually pretty good, I feel like his play style is more suited to sentinel

prostitutes suck dick for money while you do it for free

s0nny you're actually one of the most retarded users on this site, that's an achievement

that's if his stocks aren't in the dirt like a certain other player who joined bleed, there'll still definitely be teams that want him but if he performs badly then he likely won't make it to a championship team

you're clearly unfamiliar with the average prx fan

aspas wasn't a baiter on loud which is why his stats weren't as ridiculous as his stats on Lev yet he performed much better in terms of actual impact, that was more of a Lev issue than an aspas issue

internet explorer?

NRG - would've preferred if they got aspas but if that's off the table then d0rke is serviceable, if verno plays to the level expected of him it's fair to call them a superteam, I can definitely see them winning a master/champs.

fnatic - this team is going downhill no matter who they choose to sign, you can argue kaajak or whoever is better than derke but derke was hardly their main problem this year, I highly doubt they get any top 3s internationally next year

NAVI - management has a combined two brain cells, I expect them to dominate the center of the emea scoreboard

G2 - good change but I don't think they'll get any more top 3s internationally, their play style is relatively predictable

Sen - n4rrate + bang is an upgrade over tenz + sacy so I can see them being a top 3 americas team but I doubt they win a master

Vitality - less, sayf, trexx (and maybe derke) is an insane team but if they don't get a good igl I doubt they'll be top contenders, vitality had some of the most atrocious igling last year imo

PRX - it seems like they're trying to play proper comps? no idea but this team has run its course, changing their play style won't be as easy as learning a few new characters and playing traditional compositions will expose their lack of a proper igl

bl00d- do I even need to say anything? they could sign jesus and he won't save them, some teams are just so fundamentally flawed that they're destined to fail

DRX - high expectations for them, I think everyone on that team is great mechanically and they have the potential to be top contenders if mako's igling continues to improve

EG - if they sign the ex-NRG players then I think they could do very well regionally since those were all good players but if they sign more mid tier 2 players (I already forgot who they were rumored to sign from how mediocre they are) then they won't do shit, especially now that they don't have jawgemo

C9 - decent changes based on the rumors but compared to the rest of the league it's a very mid roster

MIBR - if they stop playing like retards then I truly think they can be solid competitors, they showed good promise in split 2 last year and signing NA talent might give them the push they need

FURIA and LOUD - ...

Lev - I think they'll look better as a team without aspas, this isn't chamber meta anymore where the whole team plays around one player

gen.g - not much to say, they'll still be a great team

KC - saadhak, elite, suygetsu and marteen are all great players (elite is one of the most mechanically talented players I've seen in particular), if they can figure out the roles they can do very well

EDG - this team will be exposed for the frauds that they are, if they win two games straight internationally I'll be surprised 🥱

Team Liquid - I don't think they're interested in being competitors, did the org join franchising to money launder?

F0t - I think emea finally made some good rosters so this mid team can stop making internationals just to bomb out or win against the bottom feeders

heretics - greatest roster of all time, if they don't win 3 in a row then riot is definitely scripting thee games

yeah I'm sure ange1 personally came up with that 😹d00mbros is the one that takes credit here and we might as well say EG invented how to properly combo ults and ult orb management

boostio: champs winner, 2nd place tokyo, 4th place shanghai

what is ange1 doing up there? boostio is better

t3xture was not the best itw, what level of delusion is this?

crazy how you continue to beg for attention 🥱

horrible idea 🔥🔥🔥

do you have a source for him staying up until 4am to talk to his gf on discord? 🗿

feel bad for icy ngl, he looked better and better as the year progressed and he's mechanically good enough to be a great duelist imo

marved and pancada were literally only good for a year and a half at most

sacy is not top 5 wtf 😹, his performance in 2024 was mediocre and he was nonexistent in 2023. just because his team won twice doesn't mean he deserves top 5 because he has two trophies.

does cojo actually have no life? brother responds to anything

isn't the only proof we have the 2-0 scrim picture? it could easily be a coincidence

spreads misinformation + argues about it + even before that his tweets were annoying

why do you say so? kru looked decent with him and he was arguably their best player, if anything I feel that shy underperformed this year and then there's the shitshow with klaus/mta (klaus was mid and mta wasn't ready for tier 1).

heat is the last person aside from keznit that I'd consider replacing on that roster, melser was also quite underwhelming though he had his moments

show me which leaks on his spreadsheet were correct aside from the ones that were pretty much unofficially confirmed? and the americas/emea ones are part of the ones chunkio trolled him with, if he got any of the leaks right it's more likely it was a fluke 😹if he considers random dms as reliable info then I'm sure the rest of his sources were reliable

full time bum

well idk about in brazil but player nicknames were never a common thing in most places, only renowned players usually get nicknames or if something peculiar/funny happens related to a player they may get labelled by it (in any sport, not just val)

anyway I'm joking around, you can give them whatever nicknames you want. it's just a little cringe 🗿

yeah his leaks from renowned leaker chunkio were definitely right!

you know it's kinda funny seeing people say he's trying to do something good for the community, no he's not, he just wants attention 😹doxxing him is of course wrong and those people are disgusting but let's not back track and act like he is anything more than an attention seeker

is this the effect of anime on children?

FNS will definitely surpass him in time if he continuously streams (and if tarik follows his trend of being less and less passionate about games).

I feel like even if FNS isn't enjoying a game he'll try to make jokes and analyze it meanwhile tarik looks dead inside for the majority of the games this year and can barely be bothered to entertain. I disagree with the people saying tarik for content and FNS for analysis, FNS is better in both. a more reasonable comparison would be tarik to sliggy

they're not "analysts" they're casters, the guests they have like sliggy usually have good opinions. calling them analysts is a disservice to the actual analysts on teams 😹

I don't mind platchat when they're just trolling and commenting their opinions on things, the issue is when they try to seriously analyze something despite spending very little time actually researching it and then half the community echoes their sentiment

nismo actually deserved a tier 1 spot last year and he was insane, this year his performance was pretty bad and there's much better pick ups

if they'd go winless then what would the inferior team M80 go?

I'm pretty sure the majority of them don't watch the games and base their opinion of most players based on how clouted they are or at most the post game stats. also the number of people I see echoing platchat (or sideshow in particular)'s opinion is astounding, some narratives don't exist whatsoever until some ignorant person with clout says it and suddenly it's being echoed like the gospel (and this isn't even about his 2G comment)

anyway it's hilarious seeing the reactions to 2G beating M80, and they did it without getting to scrim tier 1 teams at all. the player quality on that team alone is definitely better than M80

what do you mean by weird? second person might check the corner expecting you to be waiting for all of them to cross. it's more common for them to assume no one's there if the 1st person went past it and didn't die but it's nothing crazy to clear it

tuyz and bang are NOT better than s0m + tenz literally only plays omen

"one of the best cemented best controllers of all time" he had a singular good year 💀+ tuyz definitely has the potential to be top 5 but he hasn't shown that yet

also this is what they get for dropping 2 great coaches and letting their players troll instead
