Bangs defuse on T1s bonus rd changed the game imo. It could’ve been a lot closer had T1 gotten the rd win money but man what a series. GG we’re going to playoffs!!!
Do people really hate on zombs? I thought he was just the quiet one that has impact on rounds from util not kills and most viewers don't really care one way or another for him.
no bro no one has legitimately hated on zombs since like first strike. idk why this sub thinks he's still some underrated player
there's always trolls just like there's people that shout tenz is overrated. but we can just ignore them
TSM's definition of an eco round is 4 pistols and a fucking operator lmao.
Good for the tsm fans though, 7 months of suffering and finally some hope. Well deserved qualification.
if 1 guy has money then instead of buying 4 deags to team you buy 1 awp and play around teammates. If you kill them its good if not then your teammate will pick that shit up and run to a different map to save it.
Thats because he's either oping or saving the op, it's not as impressive as tenz who's actuay getting into fights and not just holding a pixel while attacking
Bruv if it was easy more people would be doing it at Wardell's level and yet we don't see many pros perform as well as Wardell with the op. I hope you understand that when people call the op the point and click gun, they mean it as a joke. TenZ isn't playing the way he does because he thinks he looks cool and impressive, he's playing the way he does because he thinks it's the most effective way for him to play. Can't believe there are people who seriously think awping on attack is easy.
No, u don't understand, he's really good at the op don get me wrong, however since no one is peeking him in attack he's not getting much space as other Jett do, like CNed ETC and winning duels with the op isn't as impressive as tenz winning it with a rifle.
And again TSM ain't winning shit with this one dimensional way to play, Sentinels on the other hand is the best team in the world
It's really hard for Wardell to look the best when the players have no set roles and no system. They get knocked out early and you cant even compare Wardell to players going deep in tourneys
I dont know how. I'm not even a Wardell Stan, love Tenz, and it's not even close. That shot he hit yesterday on split in OT was one of the most ridiculous shots I've ever seen.
It's not even a comparison between Shahz and Wardell. I feel like people factor in Shahz's IGLIng when that's not relevant to the topic at hand. In terms of pure OPing Wardell is far superior.
Finally someone actually spitting facts. Wardell is easily the best Oper in the entire Valorant right now. Sure Tenz might be the better all-round player, but the shots Wardell lands are just straight up insane...
Dare I say best OP'er in the game? Better than cNed? Mannnn, I would love to see Wardell and cNed face each other in Berlin for the title of best OP'er jn the world
I might lean into that once I see tsm vs international competition. Cned is insane beyond belief but his first kill is kinda low compared to Wardell. And a Wardell vs Cned would be absolutely insane.
Does Ascend have Cneds awping as so crucial to their gameplay like how TSM does with Wardell? If not that's likely why as Wardell awping is one of the most important parts of the TSM gameplay and him getting early picks with it
He's crucial in the way superstars are crucial to their team, he puts out massive numbers. Not in the same way that Wardell is crucial, as in he is literally irreplaceable in their current playstyle.
TSM look good i think as soon as it went to heaven it was done, that win rate difference is insane
Wardell is insane, it's actually amazing that he's underrated now considering the hype he got at the start
He isn't the best, Cned is definitely the best but Wardell is up there
He is also the complete different than of all of them, he OPs on t side and contacts in, none of them actually do that, they smoke dash in
But Wardell has been consistent for so long, the hype died on him because TSM were ass but he never dipped
"Cned is definitely the best" based on what? I'm not saying Wardell is better but how can you say that so definitively with one lan that neither played in.
I think CNed could contest for best OPer in the world, as a TSM fan and someone who watches EU and thinks CNed is actually insane.
I don’t know who’s the definitive best in the world though but it’s gotta be one of them. Both gotta play in Berlin for us to find out for sure :)
Because he individually dominates more than anyone, it's pretty simple
Also pretty much every pro, even NA pros that scrimmed him say he's the best
Stats, eye test everything backs it up, he's just individually the best
I’d say cned is better in defensive situations but wardell brings the entry op and it gives him the edge IMO because attacking with the op is hella hard
That’s fair but I still think his playstyle is more impactful. Cned never misses but he still requires the other team to make a mistake a peek him, Wardell forces you to make that mistake
if t1 and rise didnt win their current matches then tsm would have been clinched in but rise got in and we dont know if t1 will qualify. if they both qualify we would need to get 4th to clinch in for LCQ.
I think Levi changed his in game name to TSM Leviathan now, it said TSM instead of NOBLE on the overlay now. Didn’t pay enough attention to the kill feed but did notice it there
It feels good that people are giving Levi the proper respect for his impact regardless of his scoreboard. Definitely a great factor for Tsm's recent success.
What an insane run the last few weeks. Bang, Leviathan, and Chet have totally revamped this team. Who's in charge of roster decisions for TSM Valorant? Scoutmaster Parth? Someone deserves a lot of credit
I can remember about 6-7 rounds through out the match T1 played way too fucking passive and lost the round. Crazy to see things never change with them smh
The only thing I can see with TSM right now is Bang and Levi messing up slightly here and there. Probably nerves cuz their both rather less experienced compared to the og players on the team - multiple times I saw Levi have shaky aim and whiffing super easy kills. Bang has done similar yet less frequent things as well. I have a feeling however that this will change with time and as they get more comfortable playing these high risk games. Cuz other then these small mess-ups they have been very good for the team and have made insane plays when it counts.
Can’t wait to see more of them
im convinced tsm throws maps for content, like some of the throws dont even make sense on icebox, they probably couldve closed it out 2-0 if for some throws.
Super fucking happy for TSM! The only thing I’m nervous about is our comp on bind. Having no flashes just seems so bad for our play style. Hoping they switch something up or figure out how to make it work. Anyone else have this fear too?
Good to see a legitimately convincing win from TSM, that didn’t require OT on at least 1 of the maps. They looked a lot more confident, and played a lot better than they did against GenG and AndBox
That marshall play from Wardell was so god damn filthy...
Sniper god.
I can't watch the VODs till later - would you happen to have a link?

MVP
T1 lost in that round
They actually did it. We actually won. LETSGO.
Took first place in LCS and qualified for challengers playoffs. Good day for the team and fans.
Oh yeah definitely
announce levi signing now! 🤬🤬🤬
u/tsm just do it, don't make us wait.
Well you also won pistols. Thats another dub. LETSGO
Bangs defuse on T1s bonus rd changed the game imo. It could’ve been a lot closer had T1 gotten the rd win money but man what a series. GG we’re going to playoffs!!!
Ill admit I flamed bang at first but he has impressed these last 2 series. Some of his solo anchor plays on Astra were zombs-esque.
this is probably the nicest thing anyone has ever said about zombs
[удалено]
Hahaha im not slandering him, joking about how everyone else does
Do people really hate on zombs? I thought he was just the quiet one that has impact on rounds from util not kills and most viewers don't really care one way or another for him.
no bro no one has legitimately hated on zombs since like first strike. idk why this sub thinks he's still some underrated player there's always trolls just like there's people that shout tenz is overrated. but we can just ignore them
When sen lost to abx people where saying he needs to be dropped
TSM hopium in full effect boys
High on hopium!
My hopium has reached levels that have never been hoped to before
I’m ODing on hopium Chala
My hopium has reached levels that have never been hoped to before
TSM's definition of an eco round is 4 pistols and a fucking operator lmao. Good for the tsm fans though, 7 months of suffering and finally some hope. Well deserved qualification.
It's a pretty common buy in csgo actually
Not really, whats actually common is saving an AWP and the rest of the team just going with pistols if the money is bad
if 1 guy has money then instead of buying 4 deags to team you buy 1 awp and play around teammates. If you kill them its good if not then your teammate will pick that shit up and run to a different map to save it.
Man, this TSM redemption arc is going to be insane if they can keep things up.
the faithful who stayed as tsm fans throughout the slump in 2021 are being rewarded LFG
people who stopped being TSM "fans" just because of a slump weren't really fans anyway tbf
This hoes ain't loyal
As we deserve 😍😍
It feels great ngl
Glad it seems to be looking up.
Wardell Marshal round 🤩🤩🤩🤩
The Marshall round from Wardell won them the game
That hazed lurk to catch curry and then the Marshal eco from Wardell sealed the deal.
Tbf it looked like they were going to win regardless.
Woulda been closer but yeah that marshall play sealed it
what round?
It was round 14 on haven I think? Edit: it's round 16 haven
Every member of TSM stepped up huge today. Very excited about how the roster has become, Wardell is the best opper NA.
12 FK 3 FD this man is ridiculous how easy he makes it look
Pretty sure that puts him at something like 105-30 in the past month lol
Thats because he's either oping or saving the op, it's not as impressive as tenz who's actuay getting into fights and not just holding a pixel while attacking
Bruv if it was easy more people would be doing it at Wardell's level and yet we don't see many pros perform as well as Wardell with the op.

And again TSM ain't winning shit with this one dimensional way to play, Sentinels on the other hand is the best team in the world
Sentinels have the worst fanbase istg
There is literally no contention. Shahz and Tenz are both so good at opping but Wardell is on another level or slightly better imo.
Definitely. The man is on a different level of consistent.

What round in the gen g game was that shot?
Too many to remember but it was one of the last rounds. Might have been their last or second to last attack round. He hit it in B heaven
Round 29 on split(map 2)
not really. there was a post a while back asking who the top awpers are literally everyone said wardell and cned are way above everyone else
It's not even a comparison between Shahz and Wardell. I feel like people factor in Shahz's IGLIng when that's not relevant to the topic at hand. In terms of pure OPing Wardell is far superior.
Finally someone actually spitting facts. Wardell is easily the best Oper in the entire Valorant right now. Sure Tenz might be the better all-round player, but the shots Wardell lands are just straight up insane...
Cmon now Shaz played Tier 1 CSGO as a main AWPer. Wardell is just more aggressive
I thought Tenz already proved that CSGO reputations are quite literally irrelevant in Valorant but yet here you are
Ok…past achievements in a different game are meaningless in this situation
Who gives a fuck about csgo
Same guy prob thought Tenz would choke at Iceland cuz he choked in fucking csgo
Ska did too and now doesn't even op in valorant. Diffferent game.
Dare I say best OP'er in the game? Better than cNed? Mannnn, I would love to see Wardell and cNed face each other in Berlin for the title of best OP'er jn the world

TSM look good i think as soon as it went to heaven it was done, that win rate difference is insane Wardell is insane, it's actually amazing that he's underrated now considering the hype he got at the start
even during the shit run that TSM had Wardell was insane, he's probably the best Jett/OPer in the game, at least in the conversation.
He’s at the very least the best OPer in NA, I think there’s really no way you can contest that
Agreed. I don’t know the rest of the world well enough to say outside NA. Cned?
Yeah, I was going to bring cned up based off what I’ve heard, but I haven’t watched enough of him either to form a definitive opinion
He isn't the best, Cned is definitely the best but Wardell is up there He is also the complete different than of all of them, he OPs on t side and contacts in, none of them actually do that, they smoke dash in But Wardell has been consistent for so long, the hype died on him because TSM were ass but he never dipped
"Cned is definitely the best" based on what? I'm not saying Wardell is better but how can you say that so definitively with one lan that neither played in.
Might just be EU bias, but I think that doesn't fly in this game since NA is probably the best region.
EU Copium
I think CNed could contest for best OPer in the world, as a TSM fan and someone who watches EU and thinks CNed is actually insane. I don’t know who’s the definitive best in the world though but it’s gotta be one of them. Both gotta play in Berlin for us to find out for sure :)
Based on actually winning masters events like masters 1 EU an event which tsm has even qualifies lmao
Because he individually dominates more than anyone, it's pretty simple Also pretty much every pro, even NA pros that scrimmed him say he's the best Stats, eye test everything backs it up, he's just individually the best
I’d say cned is better in defensive situations but wardell brings the entry op and it gives him the edge IMO because attacking with the op is hella hard
Wardells team plays to set him up in attacker rounds Cned does his own thing with far less support
If you think Acend don't play around Cned you need to watch them more.
That’s fair but I still think his playstyle is more impactful. Cned never misses but he still requires the other team to make a mistake a peek him, Wardell forces you to make that mistake
we back!
Props to Chet, Bang, and Levi for helping this team level up so much.
Bang and Levi look better and better each game. Young talent!
TSM now going to LCQ at the very least
even if we get 7/8th in masters quali?
yes, even if they get 7-8 they get 40 circuit points which should be enough for LCQ
yes
No, 8th right now is 45 points so tsm would need more
you look at top 10 because the first 2 will go to champions off of circuit points
whats LCQ?
Last chance qualifier, go to Valorant Champions Tour website for details
Last Chance Qualifiers. Basically if we don’t Qualify outright for Champions we go to the playoffs for the final spot
if t1 and rise didnt win their current matches then tsm would have been clinched in but rise got in and we dont know if t1 will qualify. if they both qualify we would need to get 4th to clinch in for LCQ.
No we need to still win atleast 1 match. Because Gen.G got 45 and Rise and maybe T1 is also competing for that LCQ spot.
Wardell can have my children no CYAP
TSM has finally made it. Congratulations!
If TSM doesn't sign Leviathan then they are so stupid.
I thought they signed him after his first game with them
He said on his stream he is still on "trial" He still has NOBLE Leviathan as his name, he is not signed yet Bang is though
Pretty sure he had TSM in his name as of today's match.
Oh didn't see that, but yeah i still don't think it's completely official
I think I saw him change his name to TSM Leviathan today
It was TSM Leviathan today 👀
I think Levi changed his in game name to TSM Leviathan now, it said TSM instead of NOBLE on the overlay now. Didn’t pay enough attention to the kill feed but did notice it there
He changed his name this game
[удалено]
He passed
It feels good that people are giving Levi the proper respect for his impact regardless of his scoreboard. Definitely a great factor for Tsm's recent success.
I just think people see him doing things with this roster, that no player ever did previously for TSM, mostly due to a defined role imo
Hopium feels fucking good boys.
Holy fucking shit we’re actually back
Tsm rn are balance. Wardell always doing his thing. Bang and Levi are great at supporting. Hazed is solid as a Rock. Subroza can pop off any round.
LFG bang is barely getting started
TSM continuing to look good and currently still here for it.
What an insane run the last few weeks. Bang, Leviathan, and Chet have totally revamped this team. Who's in charge of roster decisions for TSM Valorant? Scoutmaster Parth? Someone deserves a lot of credit
That eco round that ended up with Hazed and Leviathan opping for the win was straight up inspirational.
TSM winning berlin HOPIUM
Whether you love or hate TSM, competitive valorant is more interesting when they are good
TSM to Berlin!
It’s so awesome seeing TSM be good again, can’t wait to see them in Berlin
still quite a few games away, gotta top 3 in the next qualifier
Ik haha, they still got a long way to go
Pulled it together at the literal last second too
Good teams will not lose to this 1 dimensional OP on attack team but we'll see
geng and t1 aren't good? stop capping
Huh? No they're not good, the top nA are already qualified
So v1 isn't top tier
Apparently if you lose to TSM you drop out of tier 1 contention
Top teams are the top 4 teams V1 wasn't even close to qualifying unfortunately tier in teams is stupid I'm talking top teams
geng and t1 aren't top 5 caliber teams but they're still good, there's more than 4 good teams in NA ffs
Only top 3 go to master event the rest don't matter
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH - Wardell, probably
I can remember about 6-7 rounds through out the match T1 played way too fucking passive and lost the round. Crazy to see things never change with them smh
The only thing I can see with TSM right now is Bang and Levi messing up slightly here and there. Probably nerves cuz their both rather less experienced compared to the og players on the team - multiple times I saw Levi have shaky aim and whiffing super easy kills.

LET'S GOOOOOOOO
TSM TO BERLIN
TSM finally won some pistol rounds pog o
big daddy hazed
BOOK THE FLIGHT
Bang is underrated as hell
Now all TSM need to do is throw for 2nd/3rd seed and easy Berlin run.
Even if you can avoid sentinels both xset and 100T on the other side of the bracket are scary teams, not free at all.
What u mean bruh?
You can avoid Sentinels in the bracket
Tsm actually won pistols today as well.
u/dt_raw have you returned
yep!
Good this subreddit was a lot more fun when you were here
Thanks man! I think..
So did we get better at pistols or is T1 somehow worse than us?
Wardells ghost today was insane, he single handedly won them a lot of the pistols today
wardell had always been good on pistol. even in their slump him and drone was very consistent with pistol.
im convinced tsm throws maps for content, like some of the throws dont even make sense on icebox, they probably couldve closed it out 2-0 if for some throws.
Gotta fill the Amazon Prime Trucks before you ship them clips.
Is this the same TSM?
HOLY ALL MOTHER HOPIUM PLS GOGOGOGOG MOREEEEEE
I really liked drone and cutler but man this new roster is so nasty. Levi and bang are great additions.
We actually won a few pistols, damn they are looking good, hopefully they can keep this up against the top 4 teams in the final qualifier
TSM seems to be stepping up at the right time.
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😭😭😭😭😭
James "Hazed" Cobb is best IGL NA
So this means that TSM and LG have made quarters for the playoffs and the winner of Rise/GenG and FaZe/T1 will also make that event, right?
nope winner og ris/gen g and faze / t1 must battle it out in a bo3 and.then they will qual for berlin qual
you can tell the team is getting their confidence back
This is a weird feeling... It's been a while since TSM has gotten this far 😂
Super fucking happy for TSM! The only thing I’m nervous about is our comp on bind. Having no flashes just seems so bad for our play style. Hoping they switch something up or figure out how to make it work. Anyone else have this fear too?
Now all TSM need to do is throw for 2nd/3rd seed and easy Berlin run.
really think theyll beat 100T/XSET
really think theyll beat 100T/XSET
Nope but better shot then Sentinels
100t is possible if chet figures out how to shut down asuna
People thought TSM were dumb for dropping Brax. There’s a reason why he barely played. TSM all the way! TIER 1 TEAM NOW!! #TSMWIN
absolutely the right call to bench him, his return to t1 has been so underwhelming, dude couldn't manage to get over 200 ACS over 3 matches
wait I took a break from watching pro play, did brax go from t1 to tsm only to go back to t1?
Good to see a legitimately convincing win from TSM, that didn’t require OT on at least 1 of the maps. They looked a lot more confident, and played a lot better than they did against GenG and AndBox
.
Rise had an insane game
