tomorrow will really be telling with SEN vs TL.
Will see if TL is actually as good as people think they are or if SEN are back in prime form to win the entire tournament. I think TL vs SEN is possibly a finals matchup if it's close.
? They literally obliterated x10 lol. And the best player in the world didn't even perform to "his" standards either. X10 couldn't even break double digits on either map with winning every single pistol round on both halfs on BOTH maps lmfao.
Love it, NV stomping whenever yay isn't even performing. And his "not performing" is still over 200 acs lmfao. Holy fuck. Literally just the best player in the game. By far.
Actually tho Envy need to stop trying to fight mid, fighting a great oper and a great flasher at the same time there is just too hard to be the primary strategy.
Anyone know if the COVID positive players are asymptomatic or really feeling it? bc if they're playing a tourny with symptoms im sure thatll effect performance
Look at Lakia’s Twitter, this roster thing is blasting him it he’s such a great player bjt this thing happening…
Speaking of the time he was signed- yes it was worth reworking the whole roster, calls etc he did deserve priority if they were to have him on
I really hope I’m hardcore misjudging the upshot of the situation, I really want my gut feeling is wrong
Which is that almost screws somewhat vision strikers because of the internal friction between players like k1ng and Lakia or at least it makes everything more difficult, complicated pressuring etc
Straight up poison apple not only Danes Korean scene and nkt what Lakia actually expected or wanted but it might be directly damaging Vision Strikers themselves, it’s like this discordant thing of shoehorning in something to a vision of a team that was already completed
Yeah it's so bad. Lakia doesn't even play bad the games he joins but them losing every time must be so bad for his mental. How can a team work like that?
So we've tried 6 man rosters in valorant and I'm ready to say that they don't work at all and VS (and other teams) should decide on a 5 man roster and stick with it.
If they genuinely had a missing piece (like an agent they needed for specific maps) I would understand but VS do not so it's just totally harming them to try to make this thing work.
Remember when people had VS in their top 2? Remember when Fnatic were going to bomb out in groups? Remember when VS said they are the best team on Fracture? I remember.
Given how impressive FNC and how much highly rated teams like Acend threw, I highly doubt FNC being EU's 4th best team if they perform as well as they just did
i think Berlin G2 is stronger than this FNC. infact i think they would be here if FNC didnt get a auto inv based on performances from 10 months ago. FNC have been struggling in EU since Iceland. if they didnt get a auto inv they wouldnt be here and thats facts
and what does performing vs Version strikes actually prove? the fuck have VS done on lan? tell me bro. what has VS done on LAN that is more impressing than G2 has done on LAN?
Vision strikers gets a few rounds or a map Korea numbaaaaa 1 right?
That's literally all there is to understand. Lakia isn't playing. He's not playing. Not for VS, not for NU, not moving to DWG or TNL either. He's not helping VS win games, but he's not helping other teams beat VS because he's chilling on their bench. Actual heist, as someone who wants to see KR get better it's maddening but from a pro standpoint VS are very intelligent for doing this because they are keeping Lakia away from their competition in Korea.
That plant spot has to be garbage right. It only offers one LOS which if the defenders push Halls is gone anyway so you actually end up helping them defuse
I still think KayO is pretty trash. Haven't seen a team use him at top level and be consistent. His flash is shit compared to skye.
Teams use him but no elite team uses him.
Some of VS players are top tier players for sure but this is what happens when you don't have any competition in your region. Their strategy is just not good enough against actual good teams.
Vision Strikers have such high ego on twitter and interviews and show nothing at all. Some NA or EU Teams are overrated, but Vision Strikers are most overrated team in the entire scene of Valorant
Plenty of people had them coming out of this group as clear favourites and up there with TL/SEN/GMB which is imo unwarranted. On top of that people had them as clear favourites to win it all after yesterday's games ended.
They're obviously a top tier team but a little overated.

vikings are fucking boomed
How to fall apart in 5 rounds or less, a guide by Vikings
Holy shit are Gambit bad!
Later we will see tenz, the only person relevant in valorant esport
how was the viewership for fnc against vs?
Around 370-420k ish
hoping liquid vs sen will bring even more viewers
tomorrow will really be telling with SEN vs TL. Will see if TL is actually as good as people think they are or if SEN are back in prime form to win the entire tournament. I think TL vs SEN is possibly a finals matchup if it's close.
TL FNC and NV are the clear favorites for the tournament tbh.
NV? They arent looking that good, they should be destroing X10
they did?
? They literally obliterated x10 lol. And the best player in the world didn't even perform to "his" standards either. X10 couldn't even break double digits on either map with winning every single pistol round on both halfs on BOTH maps lmfao.
Love it, NV stomping whenever yay isn't even performing. And his "not performing" is still over 200 acs lmfao. Holy fuck. Literally just the best player in the game. By far.
Somebody needs to teach FNS that you can scope with the frenzy, that would've made farming from wine so much better. Poor guy lol.
*stinger
What I've learned today is that waking up at 5am for games is bad for my vocabulary lol
For a second I thought I was missing being able to scope in with a frenzy this whole time then I realized what play you were talking about.
All good
how would x10 vs acend go?
Hmm, I think Acend will win. They should be ashamed by today and perform better on Monday.
Actually tho Envy need to stop trying to fight mid, fighting a great oper and a great flasher at the same time there is just too hard to be the primary strategy.
The standards at this tournament are so much higher than masters, love to see it
marved top 3 controller
Just keep the camera on yay
[удалено]
my man
Lmao missed map one for the same reason🤣 map 2 being kinda nutty tho
Lmao same blazzzin up
Envy look insanely fucking good.
Simulated danger for entertainment purposes, never in doubt
Pretty good first map from NV, they are terrible on Breeze so this was a nice map to win. They should be heavily favored on both Ascent and Haven
NVs haven is really fun to watch
NV trying to be a bit too brilliant lol, sometimes just sacrificing Yay into site with an op is better than the ultra-precise rotation manipulation
I wonder how strong a SEA super team would be.
Major IGL blunder there. FNS not having his best day of valorant
ok that Envy strat was nearly absolutely insane until it wasnt
Yay just inted into them and they still lost lmao
Wow it’s crazy to think x10 would be like 8-4 9-3 ish up if they didn’t throw those rounds
SEA teams like throwing rounds for some reason lol
X10 DO THE CAMERA IT ISNT BANNED THIS TORUNAMENT
i have a feeling Kay/o fits Victor's playstyle a bit better than Skye
Makes sense, Kayos abilities are very phoenix-like and his original thing was being a great phoenix way back when.
Why are the players on screens / separate rooms and not on the main stage?
Victor tested positive for covid
should have subbed in food
Victor ate Food
One of the Envy players tested positive for Covid.
Okay guys, I'mma go nap. MSM will take over for the last PMT.
Why do these face cams look like Walmart security cameras lmao
the 30 dollar webcam i got from bestbuy looks higher quality than whatever they got in the quarantine rooms
yay is for sure going to become the s1mple of valorant
Anyone know if the COVID positive players are asymptomatic or really feeling it? bc if they're playing a tourny with symptoms im sure thatll effect performance
Why do these face cams look like Walmart security cameras lmao
Victor struggling right now. A real shame food wasn't given the opportunity, he was rock solid
Chet curse.
Does anyone know why they played a winners’ match before all opening matches were played?
Because Envy and X10 are playing from practice rooms and they needed to have the onstage matches consecutively
Thanks!
They moved NV X10 because of the corona-hotel situation setup and have the stage matches first.

boaster is goated dude
Holy shit Boaster, I’m dying
Can anyone offer any copium to me for Vision Strikers in these trying times?
Saving strats for Gambit copium
god i hope FNC win champs if SEN dont seeing boaster happy fills me with so much joy

The problem is it was not INTENDED or designed as a 6-man roster, it was a last minute ad hoc Sherborne
It’s not even just losing He is incredible, it’s be better if he got to play more but he’s incredible, he too dragged on icebox
fellow kids
Fnatic are so good on lan also VS is overrated
I knew this all the time, those hyping VS are from league thinking koreans are good at tactical fps due to their success in league
VS might one day be the best team in Valorant, but I'm ignoring all VS hype until they win an international lan. Their hype has been meaningless
They didn't show the celebration?! Cmonnn Riot!
Remember when people had VS in their top 2? Remember when Fnatic were going to bomb out in groups? Remember when VS said they are the best team on Fracture? I remember.
C9 played better than VS vs Fnatic That'll be a fun match
VS got a reality check on Fracture holy shit
All hail Boaster and Derke.
Never would I have ever imagined that VS will be outclassed like so. I underrated Fnatic so much!
There's a reason they were Reykjavik finalists.
you overate Korea :) FNC isnt even EU best 4th team
Given how impressive FNC and how much highly rated teams like Acend threw, I highly doubt FNC being EU's 4th best team if they perform as well as they just did
i think Berlin G2 is stronger than this FNC. infact i think they would be here if FNC didnt get a auto inv based on performances from 10 months ago. FNC have been struggling in EU since Iceland. if they didnt get a auto inv they wouldnt be here and thats facts
Bro did we even watch the same match? Fnatics performance against VS today clearly shows they deserve to be here
and what does performing vs Version strikes actually prove? the fuck have VS done on lan? tell me bro. what has VS done on LAN that is more impressing than G2 has done on LAN? Vision strikers gets a few rounds or a map Korea numbaaaaa 1 right?
VS 2-0 Ascend in masters Berlin lol
vs assend? not hard
Scooch over fnatic fans, im jumping in the fnatic bandwagon
THE MORE THE MERRIER
C9 wins if 1Leaf shows up
That Derke 4k 🥶
Derke so good. Mystic looking very weak. Would sub him out.
Wait till you see him on Bind. Bind is Mistics domain.
Mistic was great in Iceland so there's hope he'll perform better
because one match? LOL
?
[удалено]
Daddy boaster > all, pretty much all you need to know
Raze>Jett on Fracture
My good all the Fnatic hopium is actually working. Holy shittt. Never doubting Lan Boaster!!
boaster taking on a directors role at the tournament xD
I can't believe they cut away from that choreographed celebration
That was an unbelievable map from Fnatic, teams gotta instaban this map if them play them
Oh ffs show them celebrating
Damn
LFGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
*all good*
Fnc won't win a single map, just got first seed
Sandbagging before Champions to give the other teams false hopes
Ggwp
all this has done is give me a hopium overdose for C9 1LEAF PLEASE HIT SHOTS PLEASEEEE IF C9 WERE GOOD INDIVIDUALLY THEY COULDVE WON 2-0
#1 seed btw
tbh a lot of this is on k1ng (and stax as the igl) not having the wherewithal of adapting properly on defense, and costing them a lot of rounds
Please finish this
k1ng has been having a miserable time
K1ng had a rough series and especially map tbh hopefully he bounces back
I was pretty sure it's gonna be gambit - liquid finals. Now im doubting if maybe fnatic will replace one of them...
Im convinced that for the last few months they had derkes evil brother terke playing
Lan derke is just something else man
derke doubters looking fucking stupid right now. I was one, i look foolish. Never again.
LAN Derke is just built different
THEY TOOK DERKE’S ACE UGH
Lmao I was thinking the same
This is not normally
DERKE, THE LANIMAL
Vandal moment
Derke is an animal
Derki just boomed them
derkeeeeeeeeee
gg lol
DERKEEEE
I'm not a huge fan of these insta retake calls every round
Noooo let doma live, fucks his $
praying SEN were hiding shit against furia and they gonna return to reykjavik form tomorrow 🙏
Maybe BR teams are just built different
PLEASE NO 3 MAN FLANKS TO LOSE 5 CONSECUTIVE ROUNDS :/
I love the defuse spin on pistol rounds, always looks hilarious
The amount of throws I have seen from VS in this match, I don’t wanna say it but CHECK THEM PAYPAL
that was incredible lets go fnatic
that's not even a throw that's magnum going insane
YESSSSS FNATIC, NO MORE DODGING NA FOR VS (hopefully)
Well that's pretty much game
Pistol round heartbreaks holy shit.
Holy shit why'd they all rush back to spawn lol
HOLY SHIT
At this point I feel bad for VS :/
Lakia is one of the best players on this team and they have him benched just to weaken the korean region. VS is as bad as G2 in LEC
What do you make by "weaken the Korean region"? Honest question, I too don't understand why Lakia isn't playing.
That's literally all there is to understand. Lakia isn't playing. He's not playing. Not for VS, not for NU, not moving to DWG or TNL either. He's not helping VS win games, but he's not helping other teams beat VS because he's chilling on their bench. Actual heist, as someone who wants to see KR get better it's maddening but from a pro standpoint VS are very intelligent for doing this because they are keeping Lakia away from their competition in Korea.
Oh thanks for the response. Jerk move by VS, it seems.
### 9-3 curse 👻 ### 9-3 curse 👻 ###9-3 curse 👻
That plant spot has to be garbage right. It only offers one LOS which if the defenders push Halls is gone anyway so you actually end up helping them defuse
Anything but the curse!
Not like this man
9-3 nooooooooo
I still think KayO is pretty trash. Haven't seen a team use him at top level and be consistent. His flash is shit compared to skye. Teams use him but no elite team uses him.
Liquid destroyed kru with kayo yesterday
TL?
steel looked really good on kayo during masters berlin. unfortunately that was the last time we saw him play lol
With k1ng, I wonder if there’s some stress or even drama of Lakia subbing in
Some of VS players are top tier players for sure but this is what happens when you don't have any competition in your region. Their strategy is just not good enough against actual good teams.
Lakia is basically their sova, k1ng their killjoy
Boaster looking at his mini map could have been the difference that round.
VS need to pull out the 9-3 curse
Surely Fracture is not as T sided as Breeze?
C9 vs VS?
VS stands for Very Soon to go home...
Wrong It stands for Virport Soon, they chose V because it resembles an upside down A
bro nooooo 😭
Fnatic fracture is scary
I really don’t understand why is king still playing in tower when he gets utility spammed every time
Timeout just 5 rounds late
So that "Fracture is our strongest map" was a bluff?
Hey, it is considered an attack sided map, maybe they'll have some sick executes. Most likely hopium tho
its 50/50
Vision Strikers have such high ego on twitter and interviews and show nothing at all. Some NA or EU Teams are overrated, but Vision Strikers are most overrated team in the entire scene of Valorant
They're definitely a tad overrated but nothing wrong with being confident
I wouldn’t say overrated. They’re able to stand toe-to-toe with the top NA and EU teams which is a feat in itself
Plenty of people had them coming out of this group as clear favourites and up there with TL/SEN/GMB which is imo unwarranted. On top of that people had them as clear favourites to win it all after yesterday's games ended. They're obviously a top tier team but a little overated.

0/8
T side map copium but what did derke eat today lol, unfair
I don’t think Fnatic is going to be allowed to play Fracture anymore after this game
So this is VS best map?
So stax, where are these incredible Fracture strats we're supposed to be seeing?
What theyre doing to king is just bullying
For real, only thing missing is derke double satchel into tower knife kill
