YES I’m waiting for a huge upsets and I want a completely unknown player to just pop off

I know everyone on this site loves hating and pretending everything is bad but icl when I say I’m excited for this years champions, really good teams competing I feel like the winner from this year could be anyone (FNATIC it’s their year frfrfr)

‘Breach of contract’ is a crazy reason to completely exterminate a team from the league. I mean what kind of clause in a contract says ‘if you are bad we are going to kick you out’? I mean (I am not defending riot whatsoever) but if there was a clause like that and KOI singed it either way then theres nothing KOI could argue against. Even if the contract DID said something like that it’s still poor treatment from riot towards the team. The players and staff deserved better

All these comments about it being a biological thing are wrong, in reality it’s a social thing.

Everyone that has said that it is because of the toxic/misoginistic environment are right but have you ever considered it could be a deeper social issue that spreads across all esports and sports generally? What I’m saying is that if women are less skilled than men in esports because of gender roles? let me explain why with an example.

When a kid is on their younger days and it is basically creating its own identity there are social roles that are pushed into the kids depending on their gender. For example if the kid is born a women it is most likely she will be taught to be delicate, to like dolls, to like fashion, to care for other people, to like cooking, etc. While a kid that is man will be taught to be aggressive, to be strong, to like sports and not be afraid. From these examples you can already see why women aren’t encouraged to even play video games: because video games (specially shooters) do not align with what is considered to be ‘for women’ (specially since a lot of video games are violent or involve using guns, shooting enemies, etc). I am not saying this is the absolute rule for every women in the world, but what I’m trying to say is that this gender roles is what causes the disparity between female players and male players in the first place.

Once this segregation occurs is when the skill level starts to also differentiate between men and women, why? Because men tend to start playing video games at a younger age than women. If we ask a tier 1 male player when did they started playing video games it is very likely they started playing when they were kids, while female players probably started later in life. This years end up being crucial, why? Because no one is born being good at video games, while you could have and innate skill for video games, if you don’t develop it will be good for nothing. Skills like reaction time, game sense, hand eye coordination, are better developed in the younger years of childhood. So if we add 1+1 we are going to find out why it is most likely for men to become better at video games: basically because of earlier access to video games + social encouragement to play them.

AGAIN, this is not the general rule and you can reply this with examples of x and y players that to not fit the general standard I just mentioned but I just wanted to point this out because this not only happens in valorant, it happens in all of esports and even normal sports. I’m just trying to make you see the bigger picture in here.

You are right on the cultural stuff but has really nothing to do with genetics or anything like that

This is fnatic’s comp

LMAO

Looking at the current situation NA is no longer a two-team region anymore

we won’t get g2 vs Sen for the hundredth time in the year

My team is getting cooked by nrg 🥀

I BELIEVE

They needed top 2 so yeah

At least that was a nice 1v4

NRG looked like stage 2 winners for like one hour and now we are back to normal

So 2G just have to win against the undefeated team in the group, #2 team in the region, yep that sounds possible

I feel like I’ve seen sato 4k every round
