they really haven't lmao

It's gonna be Tokyo all over again

It's gonna be Tokyo all over again isn't it

ffs I want to see EDG vs DRX for once come on

Chichoo ngl

nt EDG :(

coach (who used to be coach of ex-2nd best team in CN) left

I agree, it doesnt really matter what it is as long as you're both enjoying it. That's why the people replying to you are virgins, need to stop hating on everything and be more open minded

EDG Yue incoming

加油 (Jiāyóu) - Come on!

what were they playing before?

Both chinese and english (Berlin calls in english for Autumn)

KBG 2-1

TEC is actually quite a decent team with the players they got, especially kawaii and Abo

I just saw someone fall to their knees in Coles

加油哥们！

As a true flagger I'm disappointed. Its time to learn chinese bud

HOLY SHIT W TE

Unfortunately I think ZETA will take this 2-0 but EDG will come back and win it all in finals

Tbh no viper is fine on lotus as long as you go double controller, with that said they didn't do that either. And cypher on lotus wtf??

It's a global release tfym

Let's go LIZHI!!!!

Viva wtf

FAX.

YHchen has always been so good, and I'd take Yuicaw easily over either monk/bunt who overheat far too easily

+21 WTF...

Zero1 was brought in to replace YHchen as an IGL. They want to move away from aggressive overheat playstyle and move more to a strategical style. They've achieved that with their new lineup and are already doing far better. Monk and bunt overheat far too much and even though they might do better in CN, ASE has no chance going anywhere internationally with those 2, I mean they couldn't even make it to top 4 last stage. I've been watching ASE for just as long as you and even though those 2 are great mechanically they have questionable decision making (which they get away with against any non-top-4 team), especially during moments where it matters the most - it pains me to watch them sometimes. Yuicaw has always been a good player, just not on jett/entry since he plays more passive than he should - the other roles fit him more. If you watched today's match Zero1 had high impact, this is pro play, bot-fragging clearly isn't a glaring issue - he is playing a support role. If Life kept bot-fragging then there's an issue.

Not really, in the past yeah but AAAAY and Lysoar have EDG level aim, arguably even Berlin but he can be inconsistent
FPX was around the same mechanical level in today's match.
ASE have made good roster changes for a more passive & strategic playstyle and it's benefitted them very well. Their result today was because they played smarter (only slightly)

they're playing without their igl dw they'll comeback in east asia gc

EDG are playing with sub tho

Google is free bro

I wouldn't say the changes are questionable

if edg lose to ccg they will just buy their players anyway LOL

Why else would TYLOO have made changes, lots of people following the CN scene expected AAK to be a big upgrade for them (not that he's doing bad) and iceking was very good igl while on TE. While sorrymybad and suyjing don't have much going for them. The teamwork just looks off for them ig

NIP 2-0

The roster changes were supposed to be upgrades how tf did they get so much worse

Nah guard will be a top NA team ong

Valorant was Tencent's biggest and most successful release in China, playerbase increasing insanely quickly. When I was in China I don't think I ever had a queue that was longer than 3 seconds. It was also the 2nd highest watched game on streaming platforms in China, surpassing crossfire and just behind LOL

damn you knew

honestly this might've been the better choice for stew ngl, far easier to get into internationals through cn league

Why are you cursed to always get the prediction wrong hahaha, unlucky

Bro zoomer was good this match. Nos though..

He even said on stream himself that he prob doesn't want to join the roster

always love your comments brother

well well well look who it is

In no world should ASE be winning this, especially with the new Tyloo upgrades. Time for AAK to shine

Edit: I didn't think about team synergy they're getting clapped omg

When will teams learn not to pick bind against TE

No I think he's in China

bro cooked him

Are they just inviting the CN teams then

CN has gc??
