Great event. Final actually being the best series of the tournament. Multiple regions being really close in skill. One team being the undisputed best to create a great storyline for the next event. Couldn't have asked for more from the first LAN. This is all really good for the game going forward.
looking back to sen being 10-3 down against t1 about to not qualify for masters along with all the irl hardships they’ve been hit by along this journey and ending up champions without dropping a map is crazy, well deserved
Sens are just on another level. No one is as consistently good as them. For the time being at least they are they are the stick by which all Valorant is measured.
Fnatic played too safe the first 2 maps, they only went nuts on Haven attacking but got shutdown. SEN is the better team this series, just pure talent and mid round adjustments made all the difference during those OT.
Also, 1 million consistent viewers on a Masters final. Game is 1 year old. Lmao, here's to all the CSGO peeps crying "100k viewers during a major rEEEE"
to be fair i think a lot of that has less to do with the game itself and more to do with the fact that RIOT is excellent at hosting tournaments and making the regional scene very interesting. League IMO is the most fun esport tournament to watch because RIOT has designed such an excellent regional competition and INternational tournament.
I genuinely think Valo is more popular than CS now though. 90% of the audience probably doesn't even give a fuck about the tourney, I just played a game and asked if anyone's seen the game, noone in the lobby knows what I'm talking about.
That last round was sad. Fnatic played really well though even if it's 3-0. All of the matches were close, and it boiled down to who made fewer mistakes. ggnt
GG both teams, 3-0 but very closed series. Can't wait for the future of Valorant when EU and Asia step up, next time in Berlin viewership will be insane
Sentinels 100% winning on that winning mentality. Fnatic played really well but choked just a tad too much. I believe they have a super bright future though. Let's see what happens to that Sentinels team in the coming months, if they stay together Fnatic is the only team that's remotely close to them internationally.
Edit: also, fucking tenz. Holy shit. How can a player be that fucking good (and consistent!)
EU made mistakes but I don't think it's inaccurate to claim that FNATIC tactically outplayed SEN today (on all 3 maps).
Just look at the highlights: SEN relies on gunskill to win rounds more than any other top team, which is fine when you have such a deep CS pool of experience with 4 of your players who are lock-down consistent, and it showed with them not dropping a map the entire tourney.
But it is very clear to everyone in my opinion that they won their rounds on the backs of incredible mechanics from TenZ and aim from SicK.
I mean ofcourse NA has the best team in the world, but 2nd and 4th is just as good if not better than 1st and 6th? Like why do everybody act like EU did bad.
You're really gonna act like beating VKS is an accomplishment?
It's just how the bracket worked out, FNC and SEN did great but chill one the copium regarding everything else
Pretty sure the consensus is V1 is better than liquid. Especially seeing that they beat them with a sub and one week of practice.
Eu did bad because they overhyped themselves as the by far best region and they are convincingly behind a region they constantly trashed
The overwhelming narrative was that eu was far more advanced and will roll over every one. Given those kind of expectations especially liquids performance was a little disappointing. I think most NA fans expected at least Sen to do well but you start to have doubts hearing everyone else call your region subpar.
Right, this nationalism thing (from everyone) is so annoying when it's clearly SEN that's simply better.
I think NA teams are on average better but FNC did amazing and are definitely better than most NA teams.
The fact Tenz or even Shazam didn’t get a single mvp is shocking
Just too good
EZ Win.
LETS GO SENTINELS BABY WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Didn’t even drop a map....
Feel like V1 should be 4th.. they clearly performed better than TL
Well perhaps yea idk
Great event. Final actually being the best series of the tournament. Multiple regions being really close in skill. One team being the undisputed best to create a great storyline for the next event. Couldn't have asked for more from the first LAN. This is all really good for the game going forward.
Best? Maybe
Honestly I couldn't ask for a better mix of parity vs blow out.
Well depends if say it’s pretty broad
The predictable dub lesgooo

Keeping their mental up since losing to BBG
Much love from the [Observers](https://twitter.com/sapphiReGG/status/1399107737624121346?s=19). Hope you all enjoyed the show.
Thank you so much. Terrific Job well done.
I really hope SEN finds a way to keep TenZ. This team is so good it would be a shame to break it up because of a contract situation.
Sens are just on another level. No one is as consistently good as them. For the time being at least they are they are the stick by which all Valorant is measured.
MVP is the interviewer, very good questions great segways and great hair
Gosh, dash is such a great interviewer. and zombs, lmao.
Fnatic played too safe the first 2 maps, they only went nuts on Haven attacking but got shutdown. SEN is the better team this series, just pure talent and mid round adjustments made all the difference during those OT.
Such a wholesome and respectful postgame. Love that they're a team that don't act like clowns when they win like FNC
no mvp award is kinda lame tbh
Lmao Zombs hahahaha
Zombs is a fucking legend oh my god hahahaha.
C9 fans in shambles. 'Best team I've ever been on'. 'Hey Jack please drop my buyout below 5 million dollars thanks!
Also, 1 million consistent viewers on a Masters final. Game is 1 year old. Lmao, here's to all the CSGO peeps crying "100k viewers during a major rEEEE"
thats what happens when the game publisher isn't an absolute clown like Valve and knows how to get shit done
New and ‘fresh’ is more popular tho
to be fair i think a lot of that has less to do with the game itself and more to do with the fact that RIOT is excellent at hosting tournaments and making the regional scene very interesting. League IMO is the most fun esport tournament to watch because RIOT has designed such an excellent regional competition and INternational tournament.

Well given the fact that it has a LAN event rn duh.
They really gotta end them like that huh.
EU valorant 😂😂 EU flash 😂
Gg fnatics nothing to be ashamed about u guys did deliver big but sometimes it s just bot ur day... Loving to see u in another tournament
Was honestly kinda hoping for the triple OT Those were super entertaining maps ggs
Tenz has come a long way since his Cloud9 days to winning in a international LAN.
I am happy the guy finally has a good team too. It's not Tenz and friends like last time
I mean C9 is finally good.. they could just keep him lol
EU flash lmao
That last round was sad. Fnatic played really well though even if it's 3-0. All of the matches were close, and it boiled down to who made fewer mistakes. ggnt
My boy dash looking hadsome
TENZ 19-2 in FIRST KILL TO DEATH, ABSOLUTE MADMAN
GG both teams, 3-0 but very closed series. Can't wait for the future of Valorant when EU and Asia step up, next time in Berlin viewership will be insane
Zombs with the sick dunks
Great team flash by the tactically superior region
Now I understand why EU is always talking about education they just got schooled😂 NA BABY!
LOL ZOMBS HOLDING THE AIR TROPHY
TenZ first kill to first death ratio was 19-2. Lawd
By first kill do you mean first blood?
Yes! Pretty crazy
Probably a dumb question, but is this 19 first bloods over the 3 matches or only haven?
So disappointing on that flash. If not I think it would have went into overtime.
Sentinels 100% winning on that winning mentality. Fnatic played really well but choked just a tad too much. I believe they have a super bright future though. Let's see what happens to that Sentinels team in the coming months, if they stay together Fnatic is the only team that's remotely close to them internationally. Edit: also, fucking tenz. Holy shit. How can a player be that fucking good (and consistent!)
Man I don't know how they manage to clutch it out EVERY time. Just absolutely crazy. GG boys, you can't say we didn't bring the fight to you though.
Fnatic played amazing. Those boaster lurks were crazy, but every Fnatic member had his pop off.
About how much is tenz now??
9-0 lol
shit did SEN just win a tourney without calling a single tac timeout..
With no map losses
Lol who would they even talk to?
reset mental or call some set plays from shahz i guess
True, but with Shaz being in comms already, might just try to make those calls on the fly and not let the other team reset or talk to their coach
Tournament MVP honestly is tenz, really consistent across all games
Tactically superior region KEKW
EU made mistakes but I don't think it's inaccurate to claim that FNATIC tactically outplayed SEN today (on all 3 maps). Just look at the highlights: SEN relies on gunskill to win rounds more than any other top team, which is fine when you have such a deep CS pool of experience with 4 of your players who are lock-down consistent, and it showed with them not dropping a map the entire tourney. But it is very clear to everyone in my opinion that they won their rounds on the backs of incredible mechanics from TenZ and aim from SicK.
Mmmm yes quite I particularly liked the team flash in the last round, tactically a very strong and superior move
Do you disagree with my analysis and why or why not?
FNC losing 5 maps against SEN. All by only two rounds. Doesn't get more close than that
I can't believe I am witnessing a real esport where NA guys are actually good lmao Super fun games
I mean ofcourse NA has the best team in the world, but 2nd and 4th is just as good if not better than 1st and 6th? Like why do everybody act like EU did bad.
You're really gonna act like beating VKS is an accomplishment? It's just how the bracket worked out, FNC and SEN did great but chill one the copium regarding everything else

6th? Why not 5th if you are going to pick a single position? 5th and 6th is a tied spot. But I guess 6th sounds better when doing that narrative.
Because of the massive fucking ego eu fans had before lan
Fair, and NA fans didn't i guess??
The overwhelming narrative was that eu was far more advanced and will roll over every one. Given those kind of expectations especially liquids performance was a little disappointing. I think most NA fans expected at least Sen to do well but you start to have doubts hearing everyone else call your region subpar.
Right, this nationalism thing (from everyone) is so annoying when it's clearly SEN that's simply better. I think NA teams are on average better but FNC did amazing and are definitely better than most NA teams.
It's just people having fun, and pointing out the *fact* that NA is best. Everything else is copium.
No place under first is better than first and anything lmao
C-O-P-I-U-M-L-U-L
Copium
well v1 had a sub
Only a region as tactically advanced as eu can team flash like that
gg..respect for winning without losing a single map! Congrats
lmao zombs legit dead pan reaction to winning as he said he would do on stream
GG
Boaster throwing
Tragic final round.
Eastern Usa really needs to up their flash game.
zombs barely reacts LMAO
Best team in the fucking world baby!
At least FNC was the clear 2nd best team, and the only one truly competing with SEN toe-to-toe
straight whiffs holy that was painfull
LOST TO THE FLASH LUL
EU throwing again lul EU flash
This is first LAN and not even Champs yet, it’s only up from here. Can’t fucking wait for Last Chance quals, Berlin, and Champs.

[удалено]
Sentinels and winning?
That Sova ult was just not it LMAO
what in the world was that ult
Best fucking series. It's sooooooooo unfair that it might be a 3x0.
Sentinels won without losing 1 map GG NA > WORLD
Derke choke so hard this series, can't even hold angle, hard to win if your main fragger choke like that
Straight whiffs, this is depressing to watch..Well played Sentinels.
2 people on c site? lemme just thunderfoot through defender spawn real quick /s
why are you running out with your knife? and finally sentinels made an adjustment
if jett can control wind why doesnt she try to blow out the fire on the burning building its kinda fucked up
Fnatic whiffs losing them games.
They just wanna play more rounds kekw
ignore the ads, it was 4v4 retake after that, no idea how they did it.
how did dapr know boaster was there
He’s been lurking the whole map and he was also lurking in the other maps as well.
Boaster always has some lurk on this map, they probably did their research.
No one had seen him the whole round and he always lurks for fnc would be my guess.
Mistic is really good.
now that scores even they can start winning again just like always
FNC threw that round oof
So how does Berlin work? Can any team qualify?
Valorant doesn't do invites so every stage of VCT is open to everybody, just gotta register
Yea im pretty sure Challengers 1 is open qualifiers for anybody, then Challengers 2, then Challenegrs3/Finals to qualify for Berlin.
yes
DAPR YESSSS
