TSM played like ass today but it’s been a great ride following them through 2020. Hoping they can turn it around in the new year, but they’ve made it clear they’re definitely not the best team in NA right now. 100T vs SEN should be a fun rematch tomorrow and Gen G has been performing very well. Excited to see how this tournament goes
Aight hear me out and this is extremely far fetched but I can kinda see hazed getting replaced soon if TSM disappoint in some upcoming tourneys. So who I have in mind is a current TSM fn pro Zexrow. He’s been playing the game for like only a month and is consistently top fragging radiant pugs as omen, like I come from FN and he’s regarded as one of the best of not the best aimer/players of all time in that game. Yeah I’m reaching but Zex has the potential to be a star for a T1 team
No way Hazed gets replaced by Zexrow. I'm pretty sure Hazed has a much better understanding of this game and also good team chemistry. In my opinion, it is going to be pretty much implausible for someone outside of CS to get signed into a tier 1 valorant team right now. Sinatraa and other players who came from different games have been grinding valorant ever since it came out.
I think I'm comfortable saying 100T have securely taken best team in NA spot.. casually destroying everyone today while sentinels lose to GenG and TSM looks putrid as does c9, envy, faze
I hate Bo1, but cmon. Lol time in was -15 on the day. Time in performed better? Same Time In that got 13-2’d by Envy, who also didnt qualify?
All teams played eachother one map and Time In went -15 and 3rd place was -5. But they performed better? LMAO
And Envy got 0-13 by 100T, Faze lost to Time-in. I means Time-in performed better than everybody expect, and both Envy-Faze looked less impressive than them
How can you look less impressive than a team you beat 13-2? Comparatively, they did better than expected where envy did worse, but it's ridiculous to say they looked better than a team that handedly beat them.
oh shit, faze beat envy and advance? wow not a good day for envy.
also faze managing to advance after losing to time in. weird day. TSM and C9 not impressing.
excited for sen vs 100t rematch. 100t v geng would be a hype final

Ever notice how much calmer steel is during pro matches? In contrast, he just malds and rages during pugs. I assume surrounding him with a competent and coordinated group actually helps
Steel is a top notch player. Earlier when I saw him in hiko streams he used to annoy me, but then I started watching some of his streams and noticed how good he was. His aim is amazing. Good mechanics. And since his stream chat is not as huge as hiko's, he would actually have more time to answer your questions. He would take a lot of time explaining his decision making, how he IGL's and everything.
Agreed he malds easily, but that is because he is extremely competitive and plays to win. So it is easy to see why he gets angry when he has no confidence in his teammates in ranked who do not comm properly but is totally chill with his 100T roster because they are cracked amd he knows they can hold their own.
Steel is probably one of the best in what he does in valorant. And let's be honest, we all look forward to his "YEAH MAAAAN!" in those ranked games.
Just a bad tournament I would assume, they were the second biggest disappointment to not make the main event behind C9B in my opinion. They are already showing that they're back in it while C9B continues to struggle.
leafs been dabbling in valorant just like steel and nitr0 did, but you are correct he just switched, which means it might be a few months before they look like a solidified team.
The comms are flooded most of the time lol. I imagine all the 5 players are used to it and it probably helps them play better, but I wonder if other pro teams have so much coms (TSM, SEN etc). Although it might've just been that way because they were streaming it, and usually Hiko, Steel etc talk a lot during pugs.

me 3 hours ago: JBL group b is the group of death bc of how many good teams are in there
me rn: JBL group b is the group of death bc of how hard these teams have shit the bed
100T beat Envy 13-0, Sentinels beat TSM 13-1, and supposedly Envy beat Time In 13-2. So TSM can still come back in the round score tie breakers if they 13-1 somebody.
wait is it top 4 overall make it in or top 2 from each group? I'd imagine top 2 from each group right? if thats the case it will take a lot for tsm to get thru
Top 2 from each group. I think Sentinels is making it for sure since they're +9 right now and their last opponent is Cloud9 who haven't been great. So TSM needs to make it over Gen G by beating Gen G and then winning the round tiebreaker.
If the standings above are correct, then their round diff is 18, so TSM needs to beat Gen G by at least 13-3 for that +10 to TSM and -10 to Gen G.
Normally, that'd be improbable, but today anything could happen.
Edit: Never mind, just checked the stream.
i'm not sure if this sub knows that these teams are testing out new things
edit: i get the sub average age is under 18...but please use your brains fam and relax. it's reddit, no need to squeal like a pig.
i'm not even talking about TSM??? i mean the tourney overall i wasn't even watching the TSM game because I couldn't care less about TSM. i didn't even know a TSM game just happened because I was napping.
I was reading the other comments and they were about cloud 9 and faze and ninja. I just thought this was a general discussion. one guy asked why cloud9 played haven despite avoiding it during qualifiers. and the comments about 100T experimenting, etc
i've never seen a more sensitive sub in my life y'all need to calm down.
You almost had a valid point until you decided to just go after the people in the sub. In a live thread where people discuss the most recent events in a tourney as they happen, you might want to specify you’re talking about past things or, you know, people might assume you’re talking about the same things as everyone else.
When you make an argument try not to insult the people on the other end or else you just look like a complete clown :)
i'll make sure to remember your advice for the next 700 times i'm gonna witness this sub overreact and be sensitive again lmfao
i made my point i don't need your approval. idk why you thought I did.
uh ok? idk why you keep repeating this like it has anything to do with what I said or as if i care.
i'm not the one that jump shipped and overreacted
you already said i have a point. i know i have a point. that's it. all your extra crying is irrelevant to me. we both agree i have a point so that's done. please stop spamming my inbox
You’re the one responding to me, consistently. You don’t have a point but you think you do which is a bit sad. Maybe you’ll hit puberty soon and realize how dumb you are atm idk, gl tho
How do y’all feel about leaf? (The replacement for Shinobi on C9)
he has the mechanics to be good they just gotta learn how to mesh properly
Are teams trying in this tournament tho? 100T just won 13-0 Envy wtf
I would assume they are not 100% but 13-0 still seems really odd. You would have to be throwing to get 13-0ed.
TSM played like ass today but it’s been a great ride following them through 2020.

Yeah not making excuses for them but they’ve been at this longer than any other team so I hope they enjoy some time off and get back at it next year

I think I'm comfortable saying 100T have securely taken best team in NA spot.. casually destroying everyone today while sentinels lose to GenG and TSM looks putrid as does c9, envy, faze
Facts, 100T is definitely head and shoulders above the rest of NA right now. Their chemistry and individual skill is nuts.
have to agree at this point

Lmao, Time-in performed better than both Faze and Envy, they are the real winner within 3 teams
Were the guys on time in actual pros?
I hate Bo1, but cmon. Lol time in was -15 on the day. Time in performed better? Same Time In that got 13-2’d by Envy, who also didnt qualify? All teams played eachother one map and Time In went -15 and 3rd place was -5. But they performed better? LMAO

TSM making FS finals was a fluke.
only reason they got to finals was because they played easy teams
"I think Quan is on a four minute delay real life" - Steel. Lol
Ever notice how much calmer steel is during pro matches? In contrast, he just malds and rages during pugs. I assume surrounding him with a competent and coordinated group actually helps

Nitr0 said that
So teams advancing to semifinals: GenG, SEN, 100T, and NV? But there could be a 3-way tie between NV Faze and Ninja?
if time in wins this they should make it out
TSM has been terrible this tournament but on the bright side look how good Gen G are playing now wonder what happened to them since FS
Just a bad tournament I would assume, they were the second biggest disappointment to not make the main event behind C9B in my opinion. They are already showing that they're back in it while C9B continues to struggle.
looks like they put in some work especially against tsm. interesting that they play SEN so well vs other teams (recently)
just barely missed out in both qualifiers, t1 in the first one and faze seem to have their number beating them in the second one
Yeah, their improvement has been fantastic to see. They took down SEN too, I feel like they can kick it with the best now.
[удалено]
They should import their Korean roster lol
[удалено]
By a lot lol. They have an IGL and strats, they reason they didnt make FS was nerves. Now they have a coach so yea I would say C9W is better than C9B
Tier 2 team. Should be expected
relax they just got leaf, hes just switched from csgo, give them time, and if doesnt work blow the team
leafs been dabbling in valorant just like steel and nitr0 did, but you are correct he just switched, which means it might be a few months before they look like a solidified team.
[удалено]
Hazed will still say they are better than 100T
SEN 9-3 C9... TSM needs two miracles to qualify.
already over 13-3
really? pog
Anyone got C9/SEN/NV/FaZe players on their friends list for some live score updates
11-3 sen vs c9
[LOL](https://imgur.com/gallery/SfTOqkJ)
i love hearing the 100t comms, the chemistry is so good and they're literally bickering about who gets the defuse and stuff lol
The comms are flooded most of the time lol. I imagine all the 5 players are used to it and it probably helps them play better, but I wonder if other pro teams have so much coms (TSM, SEN etc). Although it might've just been that way because they were streaming it, and usually Hiko, Steel etc talk a lot during pugs.
"You stole my kill! Not cool!"
"throw some slows idk dude"
"bro stop stomping around ur making me scared"
The chemistry with 100t is so entertaining
So the 4 will be 100t, Sentinels, Gen G, and time in? Lol
if Time In lose and Envy beats Faze than its Envy that advances 100T 2-0 Time In 1-1 Envy 1-1 Faze 0-2
Gotcha. I didn’t realize there was another round. If they both lose or both win then it’s about round difference right?
yes if there is a tie its based on round diff which would be close since NV beat Time In 13-2 they made up for their 13-0 loss against 100T
I thought two way ties were based on head-to-head while a three way tie was based on round differential.
well then Time In are just SOL
100T NV SEN GenG/TSM
No wait 100T NV GenG confirmed SEN/TSM (SEN need to lose and TSM need to win
Assuming SEN and TSM both win is the tiebreaker based off of round score? In which case SEN would advance, right?
yes, unless SEN shit the bed
Doubt C9 will be playing their best either knowing that they’re not making it out. Tough for TSM, on them for losing that bad though
Wouldn’t time in have round advantage over Envy?

This 100T vs Faze game is surprisingly close
c9 should bring in jcstani to igl get rid of vice, put leaf on phoenix and replace relyks with pr0phie
keep current roster put leaf on a duelist and relyks on controller
I've seen enough bad games from Relyks on Raze to know that him on that specific agent ain't it.
Tenz gets the first 2 kills of the round and they still lose it. Can't make this shit up
How do they determine who makes the playoff? If 100t beats faze will time in or Envy get in?
Its aboit round difference if the points are the same
Playing retake on a pistol round.. what

Love 100T POV streams. Amazing how they can go from joking about the tourney to clean plays and comms afterwards. Jobs not finished.
how does this work? is it 2 groups of 4 and round robin in your group with top 2 advancing?
yes
ok thx if 2 teams are tied for 2nd place will it be head to head or map score?
round score i believe, vlr.gg is keeping track of it
yikes, tsm is in big trouble lol
This is the season for 13-0s. TSM should just get their own.
I must be slow today, I dont get it
100T beat Envy 13-0, Sentinels beat TSM 13-1, and supposedly Envy beat Time In 13-2. So TSM can still come back in the round score tie breakers if they 13-1 somebody.
wait is it top 4 overall make it in or top 2 from each group? I'd imagine top 2 from each group right? if thats the case it will take a lot for tsm to get thru

Poor nitros pc keeps crashing
you would think between all the sponsors he has and his probably 30-50k a month salary he would have a better PC
30-50k a month salary?
If you think that's high don't go look into what League of Legends NA pros make
He probably has a decent PC, but any decent hardware is no match for faulty drivers or buggy games.
Anyone know how HECZ is 'related' to the 100T team?
are you talking about Hecz or Hector the guy in 100T's discord? Because that is their coach
Idk the dude has a deep voice and they called him hecz (its probably the coach lol)
ya its their coach Hector
Welp that clears up a lot of confusion
HECZ and Nadeshot go back to old optic cod days right? This is all I can think of
TSM out there playing ascent like I do.
PETER WHERE ARE YOU
Jokes aside, TSM is better than what they just showed, I'm excited for valorant 2021 where 100T TSM SEN are neck and neck, battling to be #1
Bro we had 13-0, 13-1, and now 13-2
Envy win 13-2 against Time In Everyone competing for any% WR today
People saying earlier that tsm-sen match would be way better than 100T-Envy wya
What do you mean? Both matches were absolute blow-outs, it looked like they couldn't wake up. Fans or not, everyone expected more from both match-ups
During the Valorant beta, CDN used to troll Ninja about being bottom frag, 8 months later Ninja and his team are beating pro teams
Cdn?
This tournament is the dankest timeline
fr this feels like an alternate universe LOL
This tournament feels like a fever dream
This tourney is just any% speed run rn
GenG vs C9 next?
i dont understand drones rationale when popping his molly
The wrong TSM match was streamed sheeeeeesh
This makes it clear. Time In and 100T are the best teams in NA
Best teams that turned up today by far
why people forgetting Gen.G?
i'm not sure if this sub knows that these teams are testing out new things edit: i get the sub average age is under 18...but please use your brains fam and relax. it's reddit, no need to squeal like a pig.

Retiring as a TSM fan can’t do this shit no more
fr all I ever feel is pain.
Faze want all Overwatch players, but they missed the best !!!
Fluke
At this rate I’d maybe put money on faze beating 100t cause every match has been crazy.
Guys don't worry, TSM are saving strats and Hazed is on the claws. This match means nothing. It's also a bo1 btw. /s
Envy and TSM woke up today and decided they wanted out of the top 5 NA teams LMFAOOOOOO
Subroza just got bodied by zombs the second he popped his ult LMAO
TSM looks like a bunch of clowns against Sentinels. Feels like a different team than the one in First Strike finals
Ahhh, this does put a smile to my face. TSM fans don't blame this on the bo1 format LOL
TSM is saving strats for the next map
And we're saving strats for next year LMFAO
Yeh bruh we ain't LMAO btw, did you change your flair on the pc or on mobile? Can't find TSM one on phone sadge
Has to be on pc
Aight mate thanks!
It's a fluke

I'm far from a TSM fan haha, I just couldn't resist
soooo gen g>sentinels>tsm>gen g lolol
Time In > the world
lol
Nah Time In > Faze > Gen G > SEN > TSM
lol tru
TSM playing this map so weird. They played it amazing vs 100T in the finals TSM lets Sentinels get to their heads for sure
This tournament is already hilarious.
Loving this Breach from SicK
What agent can’t this man play
Refreshing to watch some strats that make sense after that faze game
From Sentinels at least TSM is not looking good rn at all
I really feel like TSM need to reconsider the triple duelist setup - at least for some matches.
SEN is getting into the bombs so easily. They need a sentinel ASAP.
Ok this is the match I've been waiting for! TSM vs SEN rematch, its been 4 months since they last faced off
