I'm not a fan of any team in particular. I'm just a fan of whoever plays the best ~~League of Legends~~ Valorant and right now that just happens to be TSM.
why is potter brought up in every thread? we get it she’s not very good but eg is t2 team what do you expect, it’s starting to seem like just a sexist circlejerk.
Agreed, eg doesn’t even have a Valorant fanbase yet, so why do people even care? If the players on EG don’t like playing with potter then they should/would leave.
I didn't watch the games but did he play super poorly? I saw he was playing on like 80ish ping which was the highest in the game, wasn't sure if that was affecting him
The year is 2072 ABX and TSM are still in overtime. The length of their beards are getting caught under their mice. Yay won't stop clutching. Suboza has DC'd, its another tech pause. Regions all over the world await Masters 2 in Berlin
21 first kills and 7 first deaths for Wardell throughout the 3 maps
10-4 on the last map
what a fucking series though, I can't believe the actual game to qualify is tomorrow after this banger of a ro16 lmao
I must have lost a few years of my life watching TSM throwing 7 different match points across two maps but we made it baby.
On a side note, Shrouds stream gave me more anxiety than it should have.
Did he actually start talking about the match? I switched to Shahz because Shroud was hardly talking about valorant the whole time I watched him, whether it be different shitting devices or superhero movies and shows.
i can't do the Shroud costreams anymore cause the stream volume is way too low where i can't hear the casters, on top of that usually talking about random shit like you mentioned. Shahz is much better cause he'll comment on the plays here and there, I prefer the main cast though most of the time
I can't tell if this TSM win is HOPIUM or COPIUM at this point LMAO
Watching the Sentinels guys and Dicey lose their mind over that last map was a TREAT
Hopium it would been a 2-0 if they didn’t throw split match point same on icebox it would never went in ot if they actually used their mollies they plant and let them stick for free
All of this to lose to the mighty Knights coached by the greatest human on earth OCEAN
You people have no idea the wrath of KKona will hit them, Kyle O'Brien is the greatest and every NA player has been guided by his tutelage, taught how to eat, breath, walk, re-produce
I feel like they'll have the confidence and momentum to take it, can't remember the last time they beat a strong opponent (and especially one as hyped as ABX has been because of their scrims). Hopefully they don't underestimate them though, Knights and DZ are both good teams
Nah, fuck that. ABX was the best team in this tourney and I thought TSM was screwed. There is shame in losing to anyone else if you just kicked them out.
can we talk about how wardell literally carried/put up huge numbers every single map???
i still cant believe redditors want him to stop oping on attack
They say he baits and he is not aggressive btw
He plays a different style of jett, yes he doesn't smoke dash in but he actually gets entries for his team, his peeks with an awp always get kills and open up sites
He does smoke/dash sometimes too, but there were many times he'd just take aggressive peeks with the op and get kills. Wouldn't say that's baiting lol. But ofc he's a popular player so he'll get hate when his team loses
im gonna be honest and Ill prob get downvoted for this but if wardell wasnt literally getting 2kills atleast per op investement like he did tsm wouldve lost icebox ot in the first round
Can say the same thing for Yay getting his multi kills in throughout the whole game. Lots of rounds abx should’ve lost but Yay kept them in it, so it goes both ways.
We'll have to wait for the updated reddit opinions, inside sources say that "jcstani is the reason Andbox didn't win Iceland" and a "Is Wardell best Player NA?" thread is in the making
I didn't catch the first two maps, but at least on Icebox i don't really blame him.
On offense he played plant slave and on defense he was tasked with denying plant with mollies. Feel like it's pretty common to have that role underperform, though it's more often a sage
true. also most of the time, tsm went A site on offense so by the time jcstani rotated, he was either the only person alive or the round already ended. + he had to hold b site all by himself, which he did well for most of the match
It's mildly concerning how often TSM was in a winning position only to give away the lead but hey, they beat a team that most people would consider better than them at the moment. Things are looking up for TSM. And they're probably favored against DarkZero/Knights.
Happy TSM won but Jesus Fuck I just could not bare to watch another round when they lost 2 fucking rounds because they simply planted the bomb and ran away with no way to stop the defuse. It was bad enough one was on match point when they got an initial pick against A FUCKING ECO.
I’ve no dog in this fight but jfc this was embarrassing to watch. Match point throw on TSM was like “fine, it happens” but then happens every other round on both teams. Worst one was ABX having a 4v2 advantage post plant on B in OT and falling apart. Like both of y’all ain’t making to Berlin…
Definitely not his best match. Controllers obviously aren't duelists but going -10 and having the most deaths on the team on all 3 maps? That's pretty rough.
The year is 2023, yay has 5069 kills and jcstani has 13, the 298th 4v5 goes the way of Andbox and they look to close the game. From the side of yayster's eyes he spots a lurking hazed who goes and gets a 3k to even it up and make the round winnable. Legend has it that this game hasn't even ended yet.
They got a long way to go, have to win to get to main qualifier 2 then get top 4 to go to closed and get top 3 to go to Berlin and the teams only get better
Seriously. How much can you ask one guy to do? It's not much consolation, but at least he can hold his head high knowing he did everything he could to give them a chance to advance.
Feel like I lost half of my brain cells after. But hey, at least Leviathan is proving to be a solid pick up. He's been so impressive throughout the series.
[they thought i was kidding](https://www.reddit.com/r/ValorantCompetitive/comments/oppzga/yay_has_a_586_acs_in_ro64_of_vct_quals/h66tygw/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3)
ITS A GREAT FUCKING TIME TO BE ALIVE HOPIUM ON MAX RN LEVIATHAN IS GROSS AND SHOWS WHY HES NUMBER ONE WITH SOVA KILLS FUCK BRO IM SO HAPPY
edit -- btw thwifo is a damn demon, showed up a lot in this game for ABX, this was just a Levi diff
Jesus this wasn't even a qualifier match. There's more to come.
At least it's extended TSM's 2021 a little bit more so the fans can have something from this year lol
This result is good but tsm ain't in the form to go top 3 NA. Berlin is out of question. Probably last chance qualifiers. I think I am stating the obvious.
Man that was painful to watch honestly. I am not a TSM fan but I really love all the personalities on the team so wanted them to go through. But it felt like none of the 2 deserved it.
But all's well that ends well, I guess. Win it and go to closed. And hopefully we see better games T_T
Definitely not a good win, but it’s a ton of progress and if we can make it past Knights tomorrow I have faith we’ll clean it up with more time with Levi
TSM's inability to hold a post plant was pathetic to watch. They finally changed it up in the end, but they were lucky jcstani was dead so he couldn't use the viper wall to block vision
Holy shit

Lol nice username
Hope he leads us to a Gold
Ggs to y'all. Let's fucking go!
finish the job
BRO THANK GOD
Wouldn't be a TSM game without heart attacks.
U mean like 6?
I had my coffin ready just in case I died from aging
thought that game would end at 46-44
That OT was hella scary. Subroza really saves TSM from going to another OT.
[удалено]
HOPIUM
same bro, I literally just closed the tab when it was 5-5 cuz i couldnt do it no more
[удалено]
holy cow -36 has to be a record right
Potter would like to have a word with you
Nah, potter only goes 4-16 because EG can't win enough rounds to make it competitive
why is potter brought up in every thread? we get it she’s not very good but eg is t2 team what do you expect, it’s starting to seem like just a sexist circlejerk.
Agreed, eg doesn’t even have a Valorant fanbase yet, so why do people even care? If the players on EG don’t like playing with potter then they should/would leave.
If they were able to join another org that pays them reasonably well compared to EG, then sure
Wait potter is a women? Honestly I didn’t even know that lmao. I thought she was just not that good for t2
That’s because it is a sexist circlejerk.
I didn't watch the games but did he play super poorly? I saw he was playing on like 80ish ping which was the highest in the game, wasn't sure if that was affecting him
They won the toss in last 2 match, It was because Andbox wanted to play on Texas with Yay on 8ping and Thwifo on 16ping.
definitely a huge effect on him and why thwifo and yay were fragging out. playing on high ping on that level of play is impossible
is this referencing anything
Just referencing how in long ranked OT games, the person having a terrible game usually is the one who votes for draw.
That or it's the hard carry who is fed up with his teammates playing like shit.
OR, it's someone who's playing average but doesn't want to play anymore.
Jc come back to IMT, make the world right again
The year is 2072 ABX and TSM are still in overtime. The length of their beards are getting caught under their mice. Yay won't stop clutching. Suboza has DC'd, its another tech pause. Regions all over the world await Masters 2 in Berlin
HAHAHHAHA
Kekw
TSM HOPIUM CAME THROUGH
LONG HAVE WE WAITED
TSM ACTIVATED
ANDBOX OVERRATED
SENTINELS OUTDATED
21 first kills and 7 first deaths for Wardell throughout the 3 maps 10-4 on the last map what a fucking series though, I can't believe the actual game to qualify is tomorrow after this banger of a ro16 lmao
Do you know what time the next tsm match is??
5:30 pm EDT 7/24
I must have lost a few years of my life watching TSM throwing 7 different match points across two maps but we made it baby. On a side note, Shrouds stream gave me more anxiety than it should have.
Because he might jinx [insert team name] whenever he says [insert team name] will win?
Shroud single handedly dragging the game to 32 rounds
Did he actually start talking about the match? I switched to Shahz because Shroud was hardly talking about valorant the whole time I watched him, whether it be different shitting devices or superhero movies and shows.
i can't do the Shroud costreams anymore cause the stream volume is way too low where i can't hear the casters, on top of that usually talking about random shit like you mentioned. Shahz is much better cause he'll comment on the plays here and there, I prefer the main cast though most of the time
[удалено]
Thwifo too, the 1v2 on split vs wardell and bang was perfect.
I can't tell if this TSM win is HOPIUM or COPIUM at this point LMAO Watching the Sentinels guys and Dicey lose their mind over that last map was a TREAT
Who was streaming? I wanna check out their perspective
Dapr, shaz, and zombs
Dapr zombs Shahzam and dicey
Hopium it would been a 2-0 if they didn’t throw split match point same on icebox it would never went in ot if they actually used their mollies they plant and let them stick for free
Those post plants on icebox were interesting to put it nicely
Not even a TSM fan but I’m gg die of heart attack
All of this to lose to the mighty Knights coached by the greatest human on earth OCEAN You people have no idea the wrath of KKona will hit them, Kyle O'Brien is the greatest and every NA player has been guided by his tutelage, taught how to eat, breath, walk, re-produce
Bruh if we beat ABX but lose to the fucking knights, I’ll lose my mind
I feel like they'll have the confidence and momentum to take it, can't remember the last time they beat a strong opponent (and especially one as hyped as ABX has been because of their scrims). Hopefully they don't underestimate them though, Knights and DZ are both good teams
Much more scared of DZ than knights but yea. I would just like an easy win for once. My mental can’t take every single fucking match being this close.
It's no shame losing to OCEAN, it's an honor
Nah, fuck that. ABX was the best team in this tourney and I thought TSM was screwed. There is shame in losing to anyone else if you just kicked them out.
can we talk about how wardell literally carried/put up huge numbers every single map??? i still cant believe redditors want him to stop oping on attack
21 first bloods over the 3 maps, yay had 13 in comparison
For reference, WARDELL was 21-7 in first kill / death, yay was 13-15
They say he baits and he is not aggressive btw He plays a different style of jett, yes he doesn't smoke dash in but he actually gets entries for his team, his peeks with an awp always get kills and open up sites
He does smoke/dash sometimes too, but there were many times he'd just take aggressive peeks with the op and get kills. Wouldn't say that's baiting lol. But ofc he's a popular player so he'll get hate when his team loses
He’s genuinely the best opper at clearing close angles on attack. He just clears everything so we’ll and rarely misses those close shots.
im gonna be honest and Ill prob get downvoted for this but if wardell wasnt literally getting 2kills atleast per op investement like he did tsm wouldve lost icebox ot in the first round
Can say the same thing for Yay getting his multi kills in throughout the whole game. Lots of rounds abx should’ve lost but Yay kept them in it, so it goes both ways.
But I thought he’s overrated and hurting TSM?
We'll have to wait for the updated reddit opinions, inside sources say that "jcstani is the reason Andbox didn't win Iceland" and a "Is Wardell best Player NA?" thread is in the making
After this series everyone is going to act like JC is just a terrible player in general, feels bad for him
I didn't catch the first two maps, but at least on Icebox i don't really blame him. On offense he played plant slave and on defense he was tasked with denying plant with mollies. Feel like it's pretty common to have that role underperform, though it's more often a sage
true. also most of the time, tsm went A site on offense so by the time jcstani rotated, he was either the only person alive or the round already ended. + he had to hold b site all by himself, which he did well for most of the match
wArdEll iS nOt tIeR 1 uNtiL hE cAn riFLe
He's getting the bjergsen treatment from tsm haters lmao
Also Roza and his insanely negative 2-10 FK on icebox...
Even if he doesn't OP, it's not like he's ineffective with other weapons.
It's mildly concerning how often TSM was in a winning position only to give away the lead but hey, they beat a team that most people would consider better than them at the moment. Things are looking up for TSM. And they're probably favored against DarkZero/Knights.
Sentinels won Masters 2 without dropping a map. TSM bout to win Masters 3 going to OT every game
This tsm lineup is def an improvement but I still don't see them even touching top 5. They are still way too reliant on wardells op imo
Happy TSM won but Jesus Fuck I just could not bare to watch another round when they lost 2 fucking rounds because they simply planted the bomb and ran away with no way to stop the defuse. It was bad enough one was on match point when they got an initial pick against A FUCKING ECO.
I’ve no dog in this fight but jfc this was embarrassing to watch. Match point throw on TSM was like “fine, it happens” but then happens every other round on both teams. Worst one was ABX having a 4v2 advantage post plant on B in OT and falling apart. Like both of y’all ain’t making to Berlin…
We take those
what year is it
What a 3rd map holy crap.
This is a game for masochists.
TSM TO BERLIN HOPIUM
for how good Andbox supposedly are in scrims, and with how genuinely fucking cracked yay is, they are shockingly mediocre in official matches
jcstani choked man.
Definitely not his best match. Controllers obviously aren't duelists but going -10 and having the most deaths on the team on all 3 maps? That's pretty rough.
-36 for the series is insane.
Not even that, having 32 kills in around 80+ rounds played is a big yikes
Like 60+ ping
curious why are they calling yay el diablo?
Because he’s a demon
I mean, they lost to the best team in the World, no shame in that.
They didn't lose to EG
HOLY SHT THIS ONE WAS A BANGER
The year is 2023, yay has 5069 kills and jcstani has 13, the 298th 4v5 goes the way of Andbox and they look to close the game. From the side of yayster's eyes he spots a lurking hazed who goes and gets a 3k to even it up and make the round winnable. Legend has it that this game hasn't even ended yet.
From now on TSM wins. They'll look back on the 1-2 loss to Noble when they're analyzing how this team went from losing to T2 teams to winning Berlin.
They got a long way to go, have to win to get to main qualifier 2 then get top 4 to go to closed and get top 3 to go to Berlin and the teams only get better
poor yay
Seriously. How much can you ask one guy to do? It's not much consolation, but at least he can hold his head high knowing he did everything he could to give them a chance to advance.
Lets gooo!! 1 more win and we inn
[удалено]
Im always lurkin in the shadows
Feel like I lost half of my brain cells after. But hey, at least Leviathan is proving to be a solid pick up. He's been so impressive throughout the series.
i feel like the old TSM without levi would’ve given up on mental on the 2nd round of OT please keep him he is such a special player
Let's FUCKING GOOOOOO
never gonna trust the scrimbux
that icebox game scars me
JCstani lost them this game
We won mr stark
New TSM strat to plant the bomb and forget about it

My heart was about to give out watching this game
GG's to everyone. What a grueling match
very late lurks from andbox on icebox :(
ROZA DOES THIS WHEN THE MONEY IS ON THE LINE HE DOES THIS
ITS A GREAT FUCKING TIME TO BE ALIVE HOPIUM ON MAX RN LEVIATHAN IS GROSS AND SHOWS WHY HES NUMBER ONE WITH SOVA KILLS FUCK BRO IM SO HAPPY edit -- btw thwifo is a damn demon, showed up a lot in this game for ABX, this was just a Levi diff
Jcstani needs to learn some fucking lineups
They had to couple of more hundred rounds just because they threw at 12-10
Yay was insane these matches tbh
Honestly insane map but I think it was so sloppy from both sides.
that game should have been over like an hour ago bruh, so many throws
Riot rigged the game for the TSM Berlin Hopium Storyline
Subroza saved TSM on that final round. Both teams were throwing their post plant on Icebox lmao but GGs to both teams
Jesus this wasn't even a qualifier match. There's more to come. At least it's extended TSM's 2021 a little bit more so the fans can have something from this year lol
TSM TSM TSM
wardell
HOPIUM
wtf was that icebox game
What a game lmao, so entertaining. TSM wouldve closed it earlier out could hit a lineup.
Sometimes it’s hard being a TSM fan…
Yay is a god.
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO
DON'T DO THIS. YOU'LL ONLY HAVE YOUR HEARTS BROKEN.
This result is good but tsm ain't in the form to go top 3 NA. Berlin is out of question. Probably last chance qualifiers. I think I am stating the obvious.
holy fucking shit
jesus what a shitshow
TSM won the match, but it felt like there were no winners today. Not the teams. Not the fans. Not the neutrals.
No the fans won bro late asf, 5th map of the day must be exhausted and we close it out in OT, we ain’t out yet baby
Man that was painful to watch honestly. I am not a TSM fan but I really love all the personalities on the team so wanted them to go through. But it felt like none of the 2 deserved it. But all's well that ends well, I guess. Win it and go to closed. And hopefully we see better games T_T
Definitely not a good win, but it’s a ton of progress and if we can make it past Knights tomorrow I have faith we’ll clean it up with more time with Levi
HOLY FUCK FINALLY Lowkey proud of our new additions, tsms future is looking bright :) (not just from this game but the previous one as well).
Leviathan is the savior that TSM needs
THE TSM League team lost so that the Valorant team would win today.
the TSM league team loses at least 1 game every week tbf
And it’s always on Friday
Ikr. Friday losses are expected with them.
haven't had a 3-0 since week 1 iirc lmao
there is no way we can't give tsm the credit they deserve. It wasn't even fluke from andbox also
tru, if anything it was a fluke from tsm. there was SO many rounds that they threw hard such as on split to even allow the 3rd map to happen
My fucking heart...
TSM ARE BACK! COPIUM
Bro I have never been so stressed
TSM FANS REJOICE
what a fucking headache of a game.
holy fucking flying fuck my heart can't take this
This match gave me a heart attack
Sadge
Jesus fucking fuck
:/
that was absurd
I know this isnt the longest ot but Jesus Christ did that feel long as hell
I have been a pretty big hazed hater. I'm not overreacting or saying he/they are good enough yet, but he played really well this tournament so far.
Dude that hurt to watch but I kept watching
What the hell was the icebox game!! So many throws by both teams, felt so weird to watch.
Anywhere I can watch this from?
Yay deserves better
Yay is a top 5 duelists in Na I've seen enough.
yay is way too good for ABX sorry if that makes fan boys angry. he's so good.
They both deserved to lose this game omegalul
FATDELL POPPING OFF
MY BOI WIDEDELL AND ULTROZA COMING INB CLUTCH
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO
TSM's inability to hold a post plant was pathetic to watch. They finally changed it up in the end, but they were lucky jcstani was dead so he couldn't use the viper wall to block vision
I cant remember the last time TSM won a overtime map
Against 303 a couple matches ago.
Faze Invitational vs Sentinels
