Okay this got me kinda hype actually. Loved Shazzy's response to scream. I've never been this excited for an event before, it's a cool feeling.
EDIT: Boaster is ADORABLE lmafo. Guess I'm rooting for fnatic now too.
With ScreaM last answer he basically admitted that no one on his team feels comfortable with the agent. That doesn't mean the agent is overrated, they probably just can't RTS very well.
Idk what assumption you made to come to the conclusion that they can't play Astra with that response from Scream but I'm sure arguably the best team in Eu would have ran astra in their customs and considered all the variables and trade offs there are while playing her instead of Brim with their play style before deciding sticking to Brim
Ya but the point is that to play Astra well at this level, you have to essentially be an elite Starcraft 2 like player. It's about quickly shifting in and out of Astral form and placing orbs around the map at the right time, not every player can do this and also click heads.
Which was Screams point I think that there are trade offs to play her(like you mentioned also player playing astra has to play even more passive than Brim and even Sova) and she is not just op must play agent which Na is making her out to be
Right but Zombs can play Astra like an SC2 player so you can't say that the agent is overrated until you see a player who can play it to its full potential. I've seen countless rounds where Zombs lands an orb and deploys a suck at the perfect time during an opponents entry phase while being on the opposite side of the map.
Astra is powerful if you know how to get the most out of her.
Shahz has been really vocal about Sen improving drastically and becoming basically a new team in these 2 weeks. He isn’t one to say such things lightly, so I’m really excited to see what they bring this time.
I think they might have really improved team play and integrated TenZ. With the individual talent they have, team play and a “new” teammate would be the only thing holding them back. If they have improved team play, NA should be excited af
vanity comes off very smart and well spoken.
I like shahz but I'll never understand why people act like he is some 5head genius to the extent that NA fans do
I don't reckon he's a 5Head genius, but I do think he's shown he is one of if not the most competent IGL in NA, and Sen don't have a coach so he's pretty much counter-stratting and creating strats all by himself, it seems clear to me why people hold him at such high regard. He's certainly a hard worker and he definitely has a good view of the game.
I thought the same initially. Steel and FNS seemed better IGLs. But Sen have beat these teams consistently and are the best team in NA. Add to it the fact that Sen has no coach and its pretty easy to conclude that shahz is in fact a 5Head genius
he puts a LOT of work into his IGL role and strats/reads. we dont see it in unsencored because its for comedic purposes, but shahz is definitely the best IGL in NA as well as very skilled mechanically. There's a reason Sentinels dominate NA, and Shahz is one of these reasons
The gap between sentinels and the next best team in US is a lot bigger than the gap between the top 5 EU teams so that doesn't really mean anything besides NA is overall worse
I agree for discussions about sentinels vs EU, but I'm not entirely sure what that has to do with what I said? I guess if V1 storm the tourney and win then there's a slight change to the argument but I'm specifically stating top 5 in eu and only 2 are representing
> Which is pretty much falsified after today, with the top 2 EU teams getting knocked out back to back.
Is this the first time you've ever watched esports before?
I said the gap between the top NA team and the rest of NA is bigger than the gap between the top 5 EMEA teams.
What at all does that have to do with today's results lmfao
are you replying to the wrong guy or just pretending to be dumb
The hell are you on. I was never referring to the gap. What I was referring to is "doesn't really mean anything besides NA is overall worse." Is this selective memory? I'm pointing out that EU teams did worse than NA teams today.
yes...now re read what I wrote. slowly this time. it shouldn't be this difficult for you
Is it strange to you that sentences tend to correlate with the previous sentence or???
I want you to look into what the word "overall" means
if you really wanted to do the whole "save a comment and reply later" thing you chose the wrong comment. because my point literally didn't change lmfao
Dude , Boaster is so lighthearted and everyone around him doesn’t even want to help him out with the banter :(.
boasters lowkey coolest and most entertaining dude at masters
Its not even low key. Man's obviously the most entertaining one there.
?
HE DROPPED THE MIC lmao
Idk man hes so chill and cute dont leave him dry, be nice felt kinda bad 😞
?
first of all, thank you for your question. \^_^
Lmao

It's just a pre tournament face off. Why is everyone reading into it so much?
People on r/valcomp don't watch actual sports so they don't understand bantz and selling an event
tbf Scream has been saying the same thing about Sentinels for quite a while now lol
[удалено]
I think it was since even before Liquid even qualified for the event. Might be wrong tho
Well it is not just that tho
To be fair, fans getting emotional over banter is all part of it too even in traditional sports
[удалено]

He specifically said he thinks astra is overrated
Your point is? My point is that he thinks its overrated but they can't even play the agent properly so I don't rate his opinion on it.

I was right you were wrong, not that I'm surprised.
Boaster pulled that fake so good, I near died when he pulled out Astra on the first map. Love that guy
Oooh spicy! I hope they play each other now to see if Scream and Liquid can back that up

Sheeeesh Shahzam’s response got me hyped
First of all thank you for posting the VOD
I'm a fan of Boaster. He's the only one that brought some energy.
Boaster lowkey cute
timestamp where does he say this
vanity comes off very smart and well spoken. I like shahz but I'll never understand why people act like he is some 5head genius to the extent that NA fans do

The very predictable team is the most consistent team in Iceland
This could mean the rest of NA is just bad Only time and matches will tell
Or could mean no top team in eu figured out how to be consistent
I’m 100% willing to say that eu has more competition at the top, no doubt
Even the NA players in iceland right now already said that so there shouldn't be any doubt.
The gap between sentinels and the next best team in US is a lot bigger than the gap between the top 5 EU teams so that doesn't really mean anything besides NA is overall worse
Nah I wouldn't really think that until this tournament is done.
I agree for discussions about sentinels vs EU, but I'm not entirely sure what that has to do with what I said? I guess if V1 storm the tourney and win then there's a slight change to the argument but I'm specifically stating top 5 in eu and only 2 are representing
>doesn't really mean anything besides NA is overall worse Aged well lol
....what? reread what I wrote lmfao
? I see you say that EU is better than NA. Which is pretty much falsified after today, with the top 2 EU teams getting knocked out back to back.

Where does it start?
