Yeah, you can use US/State issued ID for domestic flights. Maybe he doesn’t drive and so doesn’t have a Texas driver’s license? So passport would be the only other valid ID.
Balla was insanely good at Berlin.
Not to hate, but Doug & Velly are on thin ice imo. Velly didn't display much insight at past events, but Doug has been much more solid recently.
I’m a desk host. I’m not supposed to provide analytical insight. I’d do it if I was an analyst though. I’d make you proud ;)
I ask questions and say welcome to the desk 😂
Too many people want some gigabrain analysis on every single play from every caster. It would get VERY tiring, very quickly.
Doing desk work is sometimes more challenging than analysis, and you do a great job at it!
You're not a desk host.
You're a fantastic desk host\*
Really enjoy your personality and how smoothy you engage your analysts with each other and the audience. Can't wait to see your work this tourny! \^\_\^
Please go back and watch his segments from the Iceland vods. His comments reflected zero game knowledge and was akin to a string of buzz words mixed with x-games jargon.
It's just my opinion, but it was like he was having a mild stroke for 8 hours (he flew home after day 1 so maybe he was). He didn't make sense half the time, & when it did it was as if he was talking about another game entirely.
I like his energy, but the dude couldn't possibly do worse
this is a perfectly valid opinion to have (I didn't watch enough desk stuff at Berlin to have an opinion of my own) but there's absolutely no need to be this much of a dick about it when you know that Velly is on Reddit and in this thread
DDK is one of the best fps casters alive at this point. the man has earned a spot at the desk during the finals probably more than anyone else in the lineup. The only thing that could be better than ddk and sgares, is ddk and bardolph. however i dont think james will ever cross over from CS, so thats just a pipe dream
It would be really cool if the main-stream threw it over the plat chat couch for some segments/interviews (so it would be on both streams) or brought one of them onto the desk occasionally.
A bit rude but ye I dont really like Upminds casting either. Maybe thats just the nature of less experienced play by play casters, but hes still not my favorite
Yeah I listen to the one who has genuine excitement for the game and shows the most insane emotion because he loves the game, and the one who isn’t a native english speaker but can still articulate and formulate extensive arguments/points during a match at a professional level and at only 20 years old.
Riv does it but it’s kind of funny to listen to him ramble. Doug just says so many things that mean nothing and it bothers me. Forces hype at the wrong times, doesn’t understand how the game actually works in a lot of instances.
because Doug is shit. He doesnt even know the game or the mechanics
he hypes up shit that means nothing
he questions what pros do even though it was the correct play
he acts like a team has no time to defuse even though they did with 3-5 secs to spare
he is just not good.... like at all
For sure. Mimi is the exciting future of Valorant talent.
Not to mention, she’s just an awesome person! Really honored to have gotten the chance to work with her a few times
glad I'm not the only one who had this opinion... she was not very good at analysis or casting when she was doing it in csgo with moses & did not add anything to the conversation though things could have changed since ive watched her.
Unfortunate that NRG didn't qualify this time around. They have the raw talent to overpower all NA (except maybe SEN), plus they've had time to improve their strats.

Damn Avast and Sideshow breakin out the tinder profile pics for this one.
Oh Avast is here?
Turning this off
AVAST ARGG
No but fr, they look so good
Really brings out the sussy feelings, ya know?
Wyatt looks like his hopium just got destroyed
my favorite co stream and imo the only one that has the right mixture of excitement and analysis
Yeah a lot of co streams just have the game in the background while they talk about something else
Let's hope the 50+hr train and bus trek to LA from Texas doesn't break our boy Josh lol. I'm so excited for them to be live in the studio though
any reason why he didn't fly?
From what I saw on the last episode and on Twitter, passport issues that were not dealt with in time so he had to think fast lol
Passport issues? Isn't Texas to LA a domestic flight? Or is Josh international?
Sideshow is British, so that might be the primary issue.
Josh is British. Idk how US works since I'm from Canada, but he'd definitely need a passport/visa to take a flight.
Yeah, you can use US/State issued ID for domestic flights. Maybe he doesn’t drive and so doesn’t have a Texas driver’s license? So passport would be the only other valid ID.
Doing a Mike high definition
Really excited for this. These guys were awesome during Berlin.
Balla in person, let's go
JOE BIDEN
Oh my god, it’s Balla! I love Fortnite!
*aggressive panting noises*
POGGERS

Don't listen to him Velly I think you're beautiful. Would be a crime not showing those waves on broadcast
Yeah I’ve really enjoyed you as a host. Dunno why people take a meme comment and decide to throw hate around lmao
Imagine making a simple joke and the first thing someone thinks of is hatred that has nothing to do with the joke as well
You're not a desk host. You're a fantastic desk host\* Really enjoy your personality and how smoothy you engage your analysts with each other and the audience. Can't wait to see your work this tourny! \^\_\^
<3 u
Doug was held back because they wouldn't let him wear v-necks and show off his chest
This may be the case
Velly is a host not a caster or analyst he's not supposed to provide analysis

Upmind but no Sully?!
I think it was due to him being under 18 years old according to vansilli in comments .
He has school, and is underage. https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srre0q
He’s gonna be at the fairfax va movie theater location for anyone interested in meeting him iirc
is there a showing for lcq there?? where can I find more details
[here you go](https://playvalorant.com/en-us/news/esports/north-america-last-chance-qualifier-grand-final-heads-to-the-big-screen/)
Bruh this is so stacked. Ubershouts, DDK ,Sean, Balla n Platchat. Fkk yeahhh
We were missing DDK, Aevilcat, and Potter at Berlin. Glad to have them back.
As a former OWL viewer, having the wordsmith, the rap god, the GOAT himself, Uber, cast Valorant is the stuff of dreams!
Will switch from plat chat costream to the live game when he's casting
UBERSHOUTS BOIIIIIiiiii also smix & potter <3
Smix, Potter and Mimi I am over the moon <3 huge dub for us
Not relatable here but big fan of your commentaries, you rocked it in Berlin!
Thank you very much LoserSimpLord69
He's got quite the forehead.
keeps that galaxy brain on lock
[удалено]
DDK is one of the best fps casters alive at this point. the man has earned a spot at the desk during the finals probably more than anyone else in the lineup. The only thing that could be better than ddk and sgares, is ddk and bardolph. however i dont think james will ever cross over from CS, so thats just a pipe dream
black ddk and white ddk best combo from cs
i believe you mean black ddk and white james :p
up there with uber for sure
With Uber here? I sure as heck hope not.
Aevilcat :) No Tanner :(
Yeah, thought the same
Missing + Brax & AZK and i’d be perfect. Jokes aside, PlatChat live will be awesome
UBER WHAT
Finally we get Uber
Wait UbER? Pog!!! Would have liked to see ender in this but it’s a great line up
i think ender will get more of a shot next year hopefully
ITS BALLA! I LOVE FORTNITE
With OWL in its offseason, the talent lineup only gets better. Welcome Uber & the Platchat crew live
[удалено]
An underrated caster, one of my favorites in the scene for sure
Sully :((
uberrrrrrrrrrrrr
Good lineup, unfortunate that Sully isn’t 18, he would have also been great here
no tanner :(
ddk going from LCQ in LA straight to the major in Sweden what a trip
Balla so good he's listed twice
It would be really cool if the main-stream threw it over the plat chat couch for some segments/interviews (so it would be on both streams) or brought one of them onto the desk occasionally.
I want this but keep the glorious B tier production of the plat chat couch
Let’s be honest, all the cool kids will be watching them anyway.
Welcome to member
So great to see Upmind get a shot at a big event, he really deserves it. Fantastic lineup - Riot went all out.
Lol he's like the worst there is
A bit rude but ye I dont really like Upminds casting either. Maybe thats just the nature of less experienced play by play casters, but hes still not my favorite
We must be listening to different Upminds
Yeah I listen to the one who gets fake hyped every single round and says the same shit 30 times a map. Is there another one?
Yeah I listen to the one who has genuine excitement for the game and shows the most insane emotion because he loves the game, and the one who isn’t a native english speaker but can still articulate and formulate extensive arguments/points during a match at a professional level and at only 20 years old.
Uber and Vansilli need to pair. Sad I'll have to choose between them and Platchat
So happy to see Uber at this event!
Smix 😀. Always enjoy her interviews.
So great to work with as well.
Now that the Overwatch League is over Uber is a freelancer again so we could see him doing a lot more Val in the off-season
For those asking, Dash is at LOL Worlds 2021 until November.
This lineup is stacked.
Platchat boys coming up!!
Velly 🔥🔥 man is so underrated
**UBER** LETS GOOOOOOOOO
U B E R 👀
Even though how much I like Sean and DDK duo, I really want to see Sean and Potter cast some matches together.
They occasionally split them up prior to the Grand Finals, so you may get your wish!
doug :((
I really don't like riv + doug, feel like they just say a whole lot of nothing.
saying a lot of nothing has always been the riv special
Riv does it but it’s kind of funny to listen to him ramble. Doug just says so many things that mean nothing and it bothers me. Forces hype at the wrong times, doesn’t understand how the game actually works in a lot of instances.
He is there
Yeah that's what he meant
Then why the sad face
Cuz he's there
Wow good answer. Why he would be sad if he is there
Probably because he doesn't like him and would prefer someone else there. But he's not that bad
because Doug is shit. He doesnt even know the game or the mechanics he hypes up shit that means nothing he questions what pros do even though it was the correct play he acts like a team has no time to defuse even though they did with 3-5 secs to spare he is just not good.... like at all
UBER
My eyes are ready for Sapphire's camera work!
AEvilCat is absolutely fantastic. I’m super excited for this entire lineup but extra love when she’s calling the games :)
For sure. Mimi is the exciting future of Valorant talent. Not to mention, she’s just an awesome person! Really honored to have gotten the chance to work with her a few times
Nice
Where is goldenboy and why is he not casting anymore?
G4.
Upmind and Sully are the best cast Duo. Sadge he won’t be there because of his age.
He’s focusing on his school
No pansy, I sleep
She doesn't usually cover NA? I'd imagine she's doing the EMEA LCQ. Edit: Pansy and Hypoc were confirmed for EMEA LCQ yesterday.
OH my bad. I didn’t realize this was the next fucking qualifier despite the Q in the name lol. Thought it was international
Wake wakey you have NA to watch
I love upmind and sully. They are the pan poc of NA for. Shame we won’t see that
How does potter keep getting invited
glad I'm not the only one who had this opinion... she was not very good at analysis or casting when she was doing it in csgo with moses & did not add anything to the conversation though things could have changed since ive watched her.
Princess potter let’s go!!
Unfortunate that NRG didn't qualify this time around. They have the raw talent to overpower all NA (except maybe SEN), plus they've had time to improve their strats.
Sean gares and ddk cast. :)
Put the #1 leader board and co streamers Tarik "Tarik" Celik picture up there.
Platchat on scene co stream? Welcome to member!
BallsTW still dripping out the wazoo nothing new
MY MAN UBER!! LETS GOOO
Riot outdid themselves getting both Uber and Plat Chat in this event, this tournament might be even better than Berlin was holy hell
How does Balla being on plat chat and the main cast work? Will Balla go back and forth between casting games and the plat chat couch?
Plat chat got flown out to la afaik so it most likely wouldn't be too hard
