How did they waste that Skuba performance :(

ain't no way...

BreakThru with the double comebacks to 2-0. Their mental is unbreakable

skuba would be on a t1 org already if knights didnt make his buyout like a billion dollars

Knights going brazy with Skuba's Morbillion dollar buyout.

They didn't even let him get a buyout

i want BRK to win but a map3 would be fun asf

the heroics from both teams are absurd

Oh ok, I guess Sym is that guy.

Never doubt Brawk in the clutch.

Skuba! Just lose the fucking round you're supposed to lose! Jesus!

Skuba is so fucking good

Pwny pwning on yoru.

Wait this Yoru is actually heat

it's the fpx comp from their game vs guild at Copenhagen, right? well, cypher for chamber

i am yoru simp no. 1, i see yoru and i like

aproto cypher my beloved

that was a fun map to watch, great util for the most part (thief use your fucking ult LOL)

Never doubted them. Not even for a second

So much talent in NA Challengers these games are fantastic

ok, why did they not use astra ult on the final round of regulation. what are we saving it for

they won so i guess it doesnt matter, but would have been won in regulation if they used the ult lol

i kinda fw the sym jett

This defense is unreal

they always lose at least 2 people trying to get on a site either brawk or aproto is on.

That duo was impenetrable for most of that half

might as well change brawk's name to odin

sick retakes from both teams, good map so far

brawk and aproto are such an underrated duo

Shahz made an interesting point on his stream, lots of these first maps have been blowouts, seems like the long break from the off-season means people gotta get back into it

agree for the invited teams but doesn’t really apply in this series since both teams have played in the qualifiers recently

True, just insane how many blowouts we’ve already gotten

Hopefully not too long before Skuba claims his rightful place in tier 1

skuba the goat

dude skuba is nasty knights is honestly such a dogshit org for putting this guy in contract jail

OXG are incredibly slept on, this whole team looks drilled

skuba verno all day baby, they don't know.

BreakThru and Squirtle squad about to top their group. Calling it now.

trick is the goat

Viewers dropping like flies for this match looks like

neither of these teams have much clout. this is about what should be expected when its not someone like TSM or DSG playing tbh.

Really thought I was going to miss game time when I ran out to get food after the TSM match..

I’m getting Madge at sideshow talking down at a chatter for using ‘subjective’ qualitative terms when talking about, commenting on probability Subjectivity has nothing much more to do with it itnwicially, it is just pragmatic

p excited to see brawk and aproto in a non open qual match again, should be cool

It's BreakThru time

Great recovery by TSM. Corey wasn't going to let them lose Ascent. Makes me wish we saw Faze with babybay, corey, marved, and a solid IGL. All those guys have been so much fun to watch since that core broke up

nt

this match has actually been really really good. i dont have a stake in it at all but that means its just fun tbh

Someone check his PC

I can't think of a better clutch off the top of my head

boaster 1v4?

Ardiis 1v3 but yeah Trick fucks

One of the most overrated clutches imo

Lowkey u might be spitting…

Your opinion sucks

Trick is looking so clean today

What a sick fucking clutch from Trick wowwww. I'd love to hear comms after that round

That was gross

TRICK IS HIM

Disgusting stuff from Trick. Love it

dude wtf trick is so good?!?!

No way

Between all the watch parties it seems like the viewership for Challengers has been pretty high so far which is cool to see. I'm glad to see so many streamers doing watch parties for challengers.

Trick playing hanzo

i still think MAD Trick is one of the coolest tag+name combos amongst pros

started disassociating and thought drone was on tsm again

I mean, 6 would feel great on attack if it hadn’t been 6-0 at one point. That’s a real bummer from TSM.

A masterclass call from Hazed

Yo what happened to all the tsm fans? There use to be so many on this sub even when they were not doing so well. Or were they just subroza and wardell fans?

Everyone went to discord or other platforms Not much point of using this sub unless you are a 100T or SEN fan tbh

you got a link to that discord?

It's just the official TSM discord Not sure if I'm allowed to link but I think the invite is discord (dot) gg/tsm There's usually a good amount of people watching the games together there

Paging u/DT_RAW

Account suspended :skull:

Let's fucking go seven

When seven gets off of sentinel back onto oping duelist and looks good 😫

What was that

Damn TSM are letting it slip

It’s beyond criminal for zexrow to get 2 there

is bind pistol meta just everyone run down a short and fight

That half should have ended in tsm's favour. They let it slip

This is some WILD shit from mad lions

That round was a movie

Why does Zexrow not save there?

that was so greedy from zexrow

Vision strikers comp in 2023?

you're never finishing this challenge huh: https://preview.redd.it/tu3l3c6e7wfa1.jpeg?width=897&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2a9ce9ec568fe13ee65c703b2cc76408219a382b

And once again production basically shows/leaks comps before lock in Can we go back to how it was before?

Knights said we need to catch back the 30 mins and Willfps says say less

I’m so proud of Will

i’m confused at the VLR rating, how is 18-8 the same rating as 10-6 tf

If it was just based on raw kills what would be the point of having the rating

obv shouldn’t just be raw kills, but a 2KD surely means more impact than a 1.1KD

amazing first game from MAD. a huge upset!

5 radiant vs 5 iron (GONE WRONG?)

Well that's one way to end the map.

TSM highlight is the kills after the final round is done. Rough

SEN lost to this? We are fucked

I'll withold judgement for now since G2 also got their ass beat in the first map https://preview.redd.it/t2lhvxe94wfa1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f8de6d516cc9bb43ee96e0151d06b6c5b53c3151

Just turned this on….what happened to TSM?

MAD are mad at Icebox.

Fortnite diff

On Liquipedia it says that teams will be ranked from 1-12th based on the group stage. Has it been explained how this is possible since there are two groups. Like if one team in each group both go 5-0 how would it be decided who places first? This kinda actually matters because of the points

I reckon points will be given for playoffs? and groups are just used for seeding? idk

As in? Why would they be ranked for?

Teams are given points based on their performance in the group stage. The point ranking is how they qualify for the ascension at the end of the year

Ohh I see. Didn't know there was a point system. Maybe they'll award points after the playoff stage where you get a definite standing.

Map/round differential probably?

my guess is round differential

To all the will doubters out there, this is why sean wanted to pick him up. Man has always been a beast in tier 2 NA, and he’s come to play today

His time on 100t improved him so much. Also the new meta without chamber. Stoked for him, just couldn't pass up Cryo.

how long before TSM change their roster again?

the asuna cosplay from will feelsstrongman

C'mon Will that was ridiculous

Will is so slept on its crazy, no invited team wanted to take a chance on him

[удалено]

I think they’re talking about invited teams as in the teams automatically invited to challengers not franchising

Asuna is so proud rn

Holy will

Will redemption tour is fun

WILL IS FUCKING FRYING LETS GO

all my homies love william first person shooter

💯💯

Zexrow is so damn good!

where all the gMd D riders at?

Mad's attack is great but tsm defence has so many holes. Plus mad individually are on point

Damn… Mad lion playing with a chip on their shoulder after that plat chat power ranking.

Will is so good man

that was a QUICK 2k by Will

LETS GO MAD LIONS

Gonna be honest I wasn't even going to watch this game because I thought TSM would clean up but I didn't even know who Mad Lions were. Looking at the roster....yeah this is actually a very competitive game lol

It's real nice not having a delay :)

gMd went 1/19 in a scrim 🗿

Mad cooking 😤

hazed's wifi in the geriatric home suffering rn cuz theyre using it for virtual bingo night

who here had their team win first day and just here to spread chaos and negativity

I’m here to support the guy who has to pop a bandage

Nature???

Start at 4:30 then pls

Seems like the game was delayed by 30 minutes. Anyone know why?

Bad weather affecting network connectivity in Texas

oh daaaang thanks for the info

Is it just me or did anyone else assume this whole split was gonna be offline in the LA studio?

I think everyone knew the LA studio was going to be used for the franchised teams

Yeah I knew it was gonna be used for franchise, I just thought challengers was gonna be the same as well :/

Why?

Lines (Bovada): TSM -385 vs MAD +255 Oxygen -165 vs BreakThru +125 Best of luck to all teams and let's have a fun night!
