I'm doink good mens)))
Wow I meant to reply to OP, not you

Never thought I'd see a Mongolian and a Russian-Azerbaijani on a team with a bunch of NA players, but it's interesting.

Watched the first 12 episodes and got really bored. I don't think I am able to commit the show. I might read the manga eventually though.

I think single elimination is better for viewership, but worse for competitive integrity. Both have issues tbh. In some games, teams/players straight up have a bracket reset if the upper bracket winner loses in the final. Thank god that doesn't happen in FPS games.

Did Australs botch the pick and bans? Why would they not pick the maps they beat KRU on earlier?

Good meme

What's happening?

Good observation

What a choke by G2

Single elimination playoffs isn't the issue here. The issue is groups have only one team from each 4 groups make it out. This would be easily solved if they just had 2 teams from each group make out and just add a quarterfinals to the playoffs.

This format would be fine if they just added a quarterfinals with 2 teams from each group make it out. It's an extremely brutal format as it stands.

NBK is too much of an unknown factor in the valorant scene.

Now that you say it, you have a point. How does Sliggy allow these comps on these maps? No Sova/Skye on bind seems absolute troll.

Shao would be the absolute best case scenario since FPX are probably going to disband since they can't make LCQ.

Who do they replace though? I think the best option is replacing Jamppi with a capable Sova player and having ScreaM take over the Jett role. Also, idk any good F/A Sova's available in EMEA.

cNoob > botNed
Jokes aside, very fun player to watch.

Even though Sentinels are stomping, dapr can just make games entertaining by himself.

Yea I enjoy him the most out of all the SMB players.

bonkar and koldamenta bestest.

If we're being honest though, this team is in desperate need of a really good Sova player. They also gotta fix some of these comps, especially on bind. It's hard to straight up replace a player on the team though.

Not necessarily your favorite player, but the pros you have a lot of fun spectating. For me personally, I really enjoy watching soulcas, Lakia, dapr, Leo, and crashies play.

So only Sentinels and Crazy Raccoons have returned, although KRU is most likely returning as well.

any Martians?

While I like TL's player and the org more, Gambit going to Berlin is, overall, better for the EMEA region.

nAts is nUts

STOP WHIFFING JAMPPI

Even better with 2 of the maps going into overtime.

OP's name checks out

Aren't the Brazilians the ones who do that?

Verti music hall capacity isn't exactly huge, so it could be possible.

yes

I mean, you got SMB and cNed. Big drop off after that though.

Cheers to that

I want a pp-bizon equivalent in Valorant. Pea shooter with a ridiculously large magazine size.

Head to head

True

Rare EU_quiet W. This is a good way to give experience to the OCE region, but it won't do anything most likely.

Mitchman+ Tombizz let's gooo

Either them or Mitch + Tombizz better being casting these extremely important games tomorrow.

yes

Is he a cocky player?

I should've believed in 100T more and XSET less. Ended with 130 points.

steel on Jett and Hiko on Breach? What in the world?

Seems the way to be the best in NA is to have 4 Americans and 1 Canadian.
