What are these odds?

oof 3 kills on defense. Hate to see it

There were points where I had somewhat long hiatus' away from Valorant esports and vlr in general (either because I was too busy, off-season drought, or just got bored).

I guess for reference, my account is about half a year younger than yours, but I have nearly 18,000 posts less (and I post somewhat frequently). So yes, you should be worried.

Bracket resets would work for Bo3s, but not for Bo5s. Now, me personally, I prefer single Bo5 over a Bo3 bracket reset. In general, I don't like bracket resets for Tactical First-Person Shooters because of the map pools and longer games. Love them for fighting games, Rocket League, and MOBAs though.

Pretty sure that rule applies to ALL regions

SEN still practiced with 4 of their players. LOUD had limited practice time with anyone. NRG is a better team than 100T as well. I don't think it's comparable.

Thing: 😐

Thing Japan: 😍

It's my favorite FromSoftware game followed closely by Bloodborne. My top 5 favorite bosses would be:

1. Maliketh
2. Morgott
3. Mohg
4. Godfrey
5. Radahn

HMs: Malenia, Godrick, Placidusax and Radagon (1st phase only, fuck Elden Beast)

These odds are insane for having a sub

DFM or some of the bottom tier Chinese teams

Europe Middle East Africa

Rather have boring Ascent than dogshit Breeze or Icebox

Riot should delete Breeze and Icebox from existence.

It's fine the way it is. Really no reason to change it.

Lives up to the name

If they fix B on Pearl, then removing Ascent is a good choice. Otherwise, keep Ascent

You know damn well that he means Tier 1

Well APAC still has to contend with Americas

That round where he ran into the spike was probably the most braindead thing I've ever seen in pro play

This is a dangerous thread

Some of these players are not old enough to compete in Tier 1 anyway. Reduxx has to wait another year and Verno turns 18 at the end of the month.

Previously they were elibible for play in Week 2 of Stage 1, but a bug has stopped this: https://twitter.com/ValorantEsports/status/1775601840471822433

PRX, though I wouldn't be surprised if SEN overtook them after winning Madrid.

Yup, Viperless Breeze incoming with Omen, Brimstone, and Astra who all line up smokes for A hits

Viper solo bind

I still wish Riot split Americas into North American and South American leagues. Fucking sucks that we have to swallow each other up

I don't play the game anymore so this doesn't effect me, but I can feel for ranked players. I wouldn't mind these nerfs if they got rid of Breeze and Icebox from the map pool.

It can mean Dark Souls, Dead Space, or Death Stranding. In this instance, Dark Souls.

Depends on the region. In Americas and Asian countries that aren't China and Korea, they favor Valorant.

I prefer Bo5 for MR12. Grand Finals should test your map pools and mental strength.

Nothing in Valorant is wild enough to cause a seizure for me. My medication helps a lot

I'm unfit for military service in the US only because I have Epilepsy. You won't see me drafted for the inevitable WW3 😎

Take your pills

Alright NRG, 0 excuses to lose this game.

My favorite moment was when he said "blud's lost." I can't remember which match it was, but I fucking lost it when he said that. I think it was on a game of Split. Another banger was "the Berlin Wall" after a clutch from FPX Berlin.

Y'all need to expand your horizons.

Why is VLR so obsessed with anime? Is that all people watch?

The final map went 13-11. That's pretty close. Not to mention absolutely curb stomping SEN on Sunset 13-5 (arguably their 2nd best map). I just think calling them mid after doing well against SEN is disingenuous. Especially considering they're such a young team

I personally don't see 100T making it far with Asuna on the team

They nearly beat SEN bro. They should be better with wo0t as well

I hope it's not right before Shanghai. Wouldn't want to start an international tournament with such a massive addition to the game (assuming they're actually good in pro play, which I assume they will with that death smoke mechanic)

Stopped reading at "beaver_man"

Has it been mentioned anywhere? I doubt we'll see them for the first week of Split 1, but maybe week 2?

https://www.vlr.gg/312800/funplus-phoenix-vs-loud-champions-tour-2024-masters-madrid-swiss-stage-r2/?game=162367&tab=overview Look at Life's position on the scoreboard for Sunset relative to his teammates performances and tell me this system isn't scuffed as fuck. You also can't tell me that tuyz had a better tournament than zekken for example.

Does it suddenly become impossible for 2025 onward or something?
