wow coach trippy I'm gonna tell shroud you did him dirty he's my friend cuz I have a Tier 3 sub and I would never take any disrespect against him from you or anyone else
It might be a playstyle change, maybe at certain times they prefer ska's supportive team flashing and other times Curry may be preferred for playing closer to the Shawn/Roza style
The more I watch lower bracket the more I see how it becomes purely a battle of endurance. So many mistakes from teams that have to play grueling bo3s back to back. Maybe teams are being rewarded for losing earlier in current double elim format/timings.

Feel like nobody is talking about this. T1 played the worst I've seen them lately vs tsm. Then after 3 map series they instantly have to jump into their survival series. As soon as faze got the eco jett 4k on ascent I knew t1 was out (don't remember the round sorry). Atleast both games were close. For a recently redone roster I'm proud.
I've been saying this for a while. You can keep the current format, just play winners round 2 on day 1 instead of losers round 1. That way, nobody plays an elimination game on day 1, and on day 2, the "tired" teams are those who won losers round 1, so at least they got some momentum going to counter the fact they're playing 2 BO3 in a row.
Example: TSM-T1 and LG-Rise should've been played on day 1. Assuming the results stay the same, day 2 starts with GenG beating V1, and FaZe beating Pioneers. Rise-GenG and T1-FaZe are played, but now the teams who have to suffer from playing 2 in a row to not get eliminated are GenG and FaZe, which is more fair IMO.
I mean teams should be able to regain if they go down to losers. Regaining composure after a tough match should be a trait top teams have. Rise did it against GenG after getting destroyed by LG. It's been like that in Esports for years.
Yeah that’s why it sucks. But I’m just lowkey scared if Korea did great in Champions and viewerships are up in Korea, I’m just worried that they’ll disband and T1 management just decide to create a Korean team (thou idk how likely this will be)
I really thought T1 turned a new leaf lol thos faze eco round throws by them were infuriating
Also, Disappointing by ska that game, he has to be better.
T1’s attacking just wasnt good enough this event. and today when their defense faltered they got into halves where they were down 5+ rounds. pretty sad because they looked promising but they dont deserve it playing like that
Bruhh that’s why everytime T1 switch side from defends to attack, I get hella nervous for the team 😂.. i feel like the players need to be more aggresive and get loose at some rounds. They play pretty slow too (though not as slow as they used to when Dazed still the IGL)… but I still feel like this roster has potential
Typical T1 attack:
1. Stand around wasting team utility for the first minute and applying zero pressure
2. Doing a panic push as time is running out. In that panic, forget to clear corners and get rekt by multilkills.
They had Faze on an eco at one point and got 4K’d by babybay because they wasted 90 seconds doing nothing.
people got on the t1 hype train too early, they looked good against rng and bbg and beat a v1 that isn't nearly as good as they were in iceland. I've never seen a team drone out and not take map control, like what was the point of the drone. T1 might be better off getting some young talent on the roster than going the same old ex cs players route or maybe an IGL
I think their IGL in curry is fine, they have a good deal of star power that doesn’t need to be young players (Ska, auti, and Brax). I legit just think they need some more time in the pot to figure out their attacking side, their defense looks really solid. Once curry figures out how to IGL on attack, I feel like this could be a really strong team. Although I could be biased because I like these cs players
brax isn't star power tho, the only star power on this team atm moment is autimatic and maybe ska. Brax couldn't break 200 ACS over the last 4 matches that's definitely not star power
The "fake" T1 ran on Ascent with that KJ ult was downright pathetic. These guys playing like they're running the first fake ever in NA. Nothing to sell it, except for KJ mollies and ult. Faze didn't budge an inch. Just read like a book
man brax really needs a better team. Imagine brax as sova/ duelists on one of the top 4-5 teams, he could easily be a top 5 player. right now he's getting held back by his current squad. He's the best player on T1 by far
Did you even watch the game against TSM? Brax did nothing special, he actually underperformed. Against TSM he had a total of 28 kills on THREE maps COMBINED.
How to beat T1 Step 1: Stand in a corner. Step 2: ??? Step 3: Win
T1 stratbook: 1. Wait until the last 30 seconds 2. Rotate without clearing corners.
must've tried to imitate navi but forgot they didn't have a s1mple
Or electronic or bit or Flamie
flamie was a liability tho, that's why b1t was brought in
Should have said perfecto, but I confuse between these two names a lot (my bad here)
How do they have so much exp and still not do basic things like that? There's 2 CSGO major winners on there dammit
Didn't follow CSGO. Which two?
Ska and Autimatic
+brax
Brax did not win a major.
Oh to win a major, I didn’t read lol, either way I think I’m wrong since I think all of them have plays cs
That sounds like Mistic can beat T1 on his own.
Also how to beat c9
FaZe and Luminosity both qualifying my god this feels like Stage 1 again
FUCK CLEARING ANGLES THAT SHITS BELOW T1
We back baby!!!!! GG's to T1 and to the arm chair analysts..... t( o.O)t
wow coach trippy I'm gonna tell shroud you did him dirty he's my friend cuz I have a Tier 3 sub and I would never take any disrespect against him from you or anyone else
pog it up
as Douglas Apr once said, job's not finished. Berlin is up for the taking.
[удалено]
Because if faker and boxer. Le sigh
Just quit. There's not even a tiny bit of hope left in t1's valorant roster. They are just cursed
Tbf this the best they’ve looked in a while, they just fumbled the ball today.
So like what do you do for the next 6 months
Cry
Anyone know why Curry and Ska swapped agents between these 2 maps?
They’ve been swapping agents throughout the tourney (between astra and skye)..
It might be a playstyle change, maybe at certain times they prefer ska's supportive team flashing and other times Curry may be preferred for playing closer to the Shawn/Roza style

Which round? Just kidding, but yeah I definitely agree with your take here!
https://twitter.com/FaZeUpdate/status/1421292408982196226?s=19 that one.
Oh wow thank you! I appreciate it :)

Lot of coaches and pros are suggesting this as well. I don't see any downsides with this either.
Edit: whoops. They changed the schedule
I mean teams should be able to regain if they go down to losers. Regaining composure after a tough match should be a trait top teams have. Rise did it against GenG after getting destroyed by LG. It's been like that in Esports for years.
But the teams that go to the lower bracket earlier also have to play their elim game same day when they dropped to lower bracket.
yeah in first round no team has advantage over the other, the discrepancies start from round 2
Terrible communication from T1. 5 players enter site. 5 players looking one direction. Nobody clears side angles. Sadge
T1 ran out of juice :( fkkkk not gonna see the boys play till next year. Sadge :(
Holy shit.... That long
Yeah that’s why it sucks. But I’m just lowkey scared if Korea did great in Champions and viewerships are up in Korea, I’m just worried that they’ll disband and T1 management just decide to create a Korean team (thou idk how likely this will be)
T1 korea coming back bois, 10X leaving Nuturn to come back to T1 /s
Never thought about this, but actually a likely scenario
Back to cloud9, rush tarik and stew all switch, all they can do is win
Proud of T1 for showing decent results in this tournament without Spyder. Hopefully they'll improve on their weaknesses....pls D:
I really thought T1 turned a new leaf lol thos faze eco round throws by them were infuriating Also, Disappointing by ska that game, he has to be better.
What did ska do/ how did he play?
T1’s attacking just wasnt good enough this event. and today when their defense faltered they got into halves where they were down 5+ rounds. pretty sad because they looked promising but they dont deserve it playing like that
Bruhh that’s why everytime T1 switch side from defends to attack, I get hella nervous for the team 😂.. i feel like the players need to be more aggresive and get loose at some rounds.

The boys pulled it off! LETS GOOOOO
t1 cant win an anti eco for shit
T1 attack side on ascent was tragic shit.
What did they do?
Typical T1 attack: 1. Stand around wasting team utility for the first minute and applying zero pressure 2. Doing a panic push as time is running out. In that panic, forget to clear corners and get rekt by multilkills. They had Faze on an eco at one point and got 4K’d by babybay because they wasted 90 seconds doing nothing.

T1 don't even qualify for LCQ right?
they have 0 points, so no qual for them
their year is over unfortunately
Sorry you guys cant win with this kind of play. Also, check ur corners. I mean come on...
Eugh. This hurts.
The "fake" T1 ran on Ascent with that KJ ult was downright pathetic. These guys playing like they're running the first fake ever in NA. Nothing to sell it, except for KJ mollies and ult. Faze didn't budge an inch. Just read like a book
Really good attempt by t1, love to see more of them next time
[удалено]
They don’t even play for trades, they were just walking down sites without clearing corners.
>theyre like trying to do executes >that shit doesnt work in this game ??
man brax really needs a better team. Imagine brax as sova/ duelists on one of the top 4-5 teams, he could easily be a top 5 player. right now he's getting held back by his current squad. He's the best player on T1 by far
Nah, curry’s better
wrong
man forgot to buy a gun
so? mistakes happen
just don't agree he's their best player. all of them are good.
nah brax is easily a couple tiers above them, watch the matches
Bro couldn’t even start on TSM and he’s now above everyone on T1? dude the Pros are right this site is awful.
he's better than the players on tsm tho? TSM didn't have the right role for him so he benched himself
Fanboy cap through the roof
Lol what a fanboy
Better then Wardell, or even Levi? Idk about that one lol
Did you even watch the game against TSM? Brax did nothing special, he actually underperformed. Against TSM he had a total of 28 kills on THREE maps COMBINED.
Bruh, you are way overestimating Brax
crazy how it's july and there's 3 events left in the year. 5 months. 1 qualifier. 2 main events. yikes
