You seriously lack comprehension skills, if you think he has a bad take. I mean this with the greatest respect, is English your first language?

EDIT: you admitted the fault. All good brother.

Could you clip please? Missed the game

Will reserve judgement until results. We all know what happens when screaM is on Reyna. Maybe not the ideal agent for all maps, but performance is what matters at the end of the day.

JSUNG is nice

Dude only expressed his opinion with "I think". That's not assumption. So it is you who is braindead and a hypocrite. Go read a dictionary

exactly. The other results are just bigger orgs with essentially new teams losing to teams that have been around.

proud of EG+dre snapped

Why do subroza dry peek ops when there's less than a minute and they still have enough util to clear the angle

its over for gen.g before it started. sad

True fan, and I respect that.

T1, more like T2
XD XD

Low hanging fruit, I had to.

Imagine if early last year you were told that one of these 2 teams will get rounded in open qualifiers so early on.

And then ontop of that, whoever loses this game is guaranteed to chill out and play NSG and knights tourneys for a like 2.5 months

I don't think they underperformed at champions.

They came in as EMEAs 4th seeded team and only lost to the eventual winners. The joint 4th place team, KRÜ, liquid also easily dismantled. So if you value that, they were the 3rd best team at champs, right where they were supposed to be based on seeding and recent form combined.

He's not saying that. He's just pointing out the flawed logic of the saying bonecold is weak point when he's mechanically better AND has achieved more as n igl than boaster. Boaster doesn't have to be considered shit for those things to be true.

Stanning a dude the way you are is just weird. Let it go

i don'tknow if you know, but he's been working on himself like a bad bitch after a break up. and since starting Yonk, he's been putting up good numbers.

On a real though, did the coach forget the rule or is he just highly dumb? It's so easily traceable typing in the game chat. That's so blatant it's not even underhanded

This is far inferior to Mr.Methods' Methods. In fact, Mr.Methods' Methods are such a better Method that Mr Method's would be rolling in his grave if he was aware of such a faulty Method

who knows man. We'll see in March / April

this comment lmao

I can safely say you are missing the point entirely.

yeah there's no hope for you. good luck

17 year old 1 head take.

If people want to watch tenz, they will watch tenz.

1 - Why do you think doing both means having to win events. It simply doesn't look at TSM. You're operating with a super amateur viewpoint and it hurts me to even have to point this out. Doing both simply means being PRESENT in both and being PAID in both. So I refer you to the TSM example again.

2 - This idea that Sentinels have been getting clapped isn't true. They lost 2 really close series against top 4 teams at champs and they lost a regional matchup to get knocked out of champions. The overreaction is actually so idiotic from people. These are just losses, not clappings. If you really think a game of MR12 where the 2 round difference is because 1 team streamed too much. There's no hope for any of you.

3 - conjecture, you have zero proof to be able to say they would have lost to C9 and Rise. Stop with this nonsense, you have nothing to base that on. Sen performed better against liquid than C9 and KRU did who both placed higher lol. You guys are actually not thinking.

No.
Content creators are valuable because their audience is theirs, not the orgs.

And if you don't understand this, we can't even have a discussion.

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/55993db8 hello friends

Because he can do both. DUHHHH. it's not rocket science. dude is still salaried, and unless he plays HORRIBLY for SEN, which he never has, it's not like his job would be at stake. Doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things if he doesn't win Champions. Dude never won anything S tier in CSGO. You think he cares that badly now?

You VLR people lack the ability to put yourself in other people's shoes. It's not complicated at all. Alot of you also think that your opinions matter, which they don't. People who are into this game enough to be on forums are the smallest segment of the playerbase. So while you keep shitting on SEN for streaming loads, the other 95% of valorant fans will tune into their stream and keep supporting them and making them money while you guys are in a rush to create the 50th hate thread of the month. Save your energy dude.

My advice would be just avoid threads about Sen and Shazam on this forum. It's as you mention. An echo chamber of hate boners.

Idiots on this forum are surprised that they might not be praccing hard. If I was an NA pro with a large following, why the fuck would I sacrifice a huge source of income to potentially not even qualify because the 2/3 tournament is only 12 teams and the prize money is weak. Screw that. Stream.

Stop the sentinels hate boner.

And fuck Valorant tournaments anyway. Why should pros grind extra hard and sacrifice their streaming income for peanuts prize money in in tournaments they'll appear at MAX 3 times a year. Which they might not even narrowly qualify for (12 team tournaments KEKW).

Other than the champions bundle, the prize money is mehh. Stream and get that dollar my friend.

EDIT: VLR downfragging hard facts. The truth hurts.

You're half right. There's no slot for masters winner this year.

The EMEA region includes more than 100 countries, whose citizens collectively speak more than two thousand native languages. The EMEA region's total population size totals between 2.1 and 2.2 billion people. This is less than 1/3rd of the global population.

Also your map is wrong.

Not their finest map, that's for sure 8-)

clearly you're missing the joke

Yeah, I know that has more to do with the government than Riot. It's just disappointing to see and not great for the progression of valorant as a whole. We all know that the chinese base will bring serious numbers to the game.

that would require extra time and money. Resources that small indie companies like Riot don't have. Maybe one day when they're big enough we'll get that.

I agree with you. I guess what I'm saying is. I fully expected this and I'm surprised that people are surprised.

The next LAN is gonna be rigged secretly by riot. EMEA will all get grouped and the other regions will laugh at us for bitching about slot distribution. ;-)

Also. Still no China? Damn, this game is moving slooooooow

The answer is simple. I don't know why everyone is so fucking confused.

VIEWERSHIP > COMPETITIVENESS as far as riot is concerned.

Also, they didn't take a slot away from EMEA. EMEA were given 3 last year. We just had 4 at champs because The masters 3 winner automatically qualified.

i don't know why this phrase gives me so much joy

Was it not Izzy and russz tweeting against each other a few weeks ago on twitter though, what was that about?

Bingooo

you haven't got a source otherwise you would of said. i dont want to go pro you stupid Greek poverty loser. go shag a goat

9-3 in action lol

Lol, my hero xD

Exciting to see. EMEA developing nicely so early into the year.

Agreed.

you seem overly invested and even a little bit offended that i'm telling someone that EMEA wages aren't as high as most think. You don't need to know my source, the answer doesn't matter to you either way. You will not be a pro. Quite the weirdo you are.

Sorry, can't say. What I will say is I find it extremely surprising that people think EMEA salaries are close to 5 figures a month in Valorant.

You must have some misconceptions about the world bro. 2.5k a month is higher than the national average for almost all European countries. It's very liveable, though it's not alot of money.

So pro players are still at the stage where they're just happy to get paid doing what they love. The champions skin bundle came in huge for players outside of NA, trust me lol
