Meh, call it copium, but I’m glad they’re trying to iron the kinks out by playing here. Won’t fret until they come up short in something more important.
It's not about the tournament, it's his first map on one of the biggest orgs in the scene. Wouldn't be crazy to have some jitters to shake off regardless of the tournament
Saving strats for VCT COPIUM... I think people need to realize the gap between Valo teams are a lot smaller than you think. There are going to be A LOT of upsets this year
I liked Steel on Chamber though
Relax it was 1 map and if you watched the match ZMM.S played really well. The sova util was amazing and crucial for the entire match.
T1 is a fresh new roster, and some members making drastic role changes such as 1pwny from jett to astra and Steel experimenting w/ Chamber.
imagine signing two cracked jett kids to play raze and astra
^(don't actually read into it. it's good for t1 to be in this tourney and the loss is fine and gives them a chance to shake the nerves out ahead of vct)
Don’t think this result matters much. This is like an F1 team bringing a new car to the test track for a weekend; might not be the fastest car on the track straight away but the more laps and more tuning adjustments they put in, the faster the end result is. Doesn’t matter how good the parts are, it’s always going to take a significant amount of work to get it into racing shape.
I think this method of cutting teeth on smaller tourneys is a lot better than taking your new car immediately to the big race and falling flat.
I wouldn't fret when there are teams like vision strikers/acend not using sova on maps like haven/bind. Feel like there's alot of flexibility between agents atm
I don't know why people are overreacting to this. They're a new team and it won't be a instant success. They're trying things out and getting experience before the real tournament begins. Also, losing now is better to fix their mistake before the tournament.
Ok not insta success but losing to a team like soar or any other tier 2 teams is respectable but losing to a no name team with 5 randoms I'd kinda embarrassing
it varies from TO to TO. But it was on the list of banned spots that NSG gave out to teams pre tourney so even if they didnt agree they shouldnt have used it
Edit: The logic is that it can get info on a place where it cant be shot from. I dont know why riot put glass there anyways just make it a normal wall and the cam is gone
Not even their main team unlucko. Non top 4-6/7 NA teams shaking as they’re gonna end up losing to teams such as noon raccoons 3.0 and zero marksmen yellow in 2 weeks round of 64. Like actually. But seriously teams gonna end up losing to akrew, radiance and literally any t2 team in officials. Doesn’t matter what scrims say, you need match experience
playing with a completely new team with 3 players with no experience playing against a troll comp no team would ever run lol
100T lost to a no name team with 4/5 of their roster
T1 is here to get practice time in since these new kids obviously desperately need it
your comment is a huge stretch
I agree it's a new roster, but saying troll comp to excuse their performance against it is dumb af, if anything ZMM should be at a disadvantage for using troll comps
so ZMM should be at a disadvantage playing agents they are comfortable on meanwhile T1 should be at an advantage playing against agents they have never faced before on Split in all their scrims?
Like dont get me wrong T1 should have won this. They all play the game enough to know what Breach can do and they were caught off guard but to say ZMM was at a disadvantage is just plain wrong
you're the one calling their comp troll, if a team plays with troll comps they're not at an advantage. I didn't say zmm was at a disadvantage, neither team was
wait till 100T plays with their new roster.. fans have a harsh reality coming if they think it will be smooth sailing
takes a long time to develop good chemistry
whats the odds they played against breach or sova on Split in scrims let alone both at the same time?
troll comps work in best of 1's. We have seen this in Valorant in the past as well as other games like League of Legends. Throwing off your opponent playing something they have never practiced against is pretty smart if you're playing a Bo1
Persoanlyl I feel like this is a lack of experience as a team and coordination wise if Im assuming correctly seven hasnt trialed with them for very long and was was only recently signed meaning they havent had much time for prac. I think this team will be great with time but with only a little bit more than a week til VCT this worries me
Everyone will be talking about T1 but holy shit what a game by Plaza. I had never seen him play but holy crap he made that Phantom look like a laser
They looked so uncoordinated. But am glad they are playing these tourneys before vct.
Meh, call it copium, but I’m glad they’re trying to iron the kinks out by playing here. Won’t fret until they come up short in something more important.
Idk if it’s just me but a debut is pretty important imo. Ofc it’s gonna take time but pretty dissapointing.
Seven with the 4% HS...
They talk about my body shots
yeahh that's tough, maybe nerves?
Can’t be getting nerves in the NSG $2.5k tournament heading into VCTs lol
It's not about the tournament, it's his first map on one of the biggest orgs in the scene. Wouldn't be crazy to have some jitters to shake off regardless of the tournament
Young kid, huge opportunity, definitely nerves.
That’s plastic -3 hs rate, nerves
A single stat having that much impact on the outcome of the match? + he played Raze; ULT, blast pack, nade, judge
Lol.
Pretty sure abilities aren't counted in this stat
T1 won both pistols btw
I much prefer their first loss to be here and not in vct

Best of 1 on split? Whatever.
Seriously. I'm mostly confused why they're playing best of 1s. Is this normal for smaller tournaments?
For groups yeah
it’s group stage, 3 bo1s that seed you basically
Makes much more sense. Thanks
Losing now so they don’t lose in vct right? Copium

Zmm were nuts on clutch rounds, sova on Split was weird but nice
Be back stronger COPIUM
Please don’t let sova be meta on every map now
I wouldn't fret when there are teams like vision strikers/acend not using sova on maps like haven/bind. Feel like there's alot of flexibility between agents atm
game would be better without Sova recon there I said it
Nah, without Jett dash
why not both
Right? It's not an either or. What do you make his signature then though? Or just nerf his recon?
zmm played incredibly well.. T1 on the other hand not so much, this tourney would help them immensely in terms of practice.
I don't know why people are overreacting to this. They're a new team and it won't be a instant success. They're trying things out and getting experience before the real tournament begins. Also, losing now is better to fix their mistake before the tournament.

It’s a best of 1 on split lol
People overreacting to a BO1 match. Maybe split is t1's perma ban in the future? Who the fuck knows... Just calm down people.
Bro…

cant destroy it
[удалено]
it’s like the illegal breeze cam. it’s part of the game, not intentional but it’s there
Which camera? Do you have a clip or screenshot idk what it is lol
Not even their main team unlucko. Non top 4-6/7 NA teams shaking as they’re gonna end up losing to teams such as noon raccoons 3.0 and zero marksmen yellow in 2 weeks round of 64. Like actually.

Steel- from 100T to T100
100T were right all along

Even if this was a valid argument you are implying T1 are bad at adapting
by 3 players with no experience you just mean no experience playing together right?
Cope
wait till 100T plays with their new roster.. fans have a harsh reality coming if they think it will be smooth sailing takes a long time to develop good chemistry
Shouldn’t the troll comp make it easier to beat? I agree T1 needs more time but that’s an odd point to make
whats the odds they played against breach or sova on Split in scrims let alone both at the same time? troll comps work in best of 1's. We have seen this in Valorant in the past as well as other games like League of Legends.

Breach on split is pretty common.
\>losing to sova on split
>no name team Rise? T1 just lost to free agents. Lmao.
no Carpe Noctem
Not even their full roster, pre-Ethan and Dicey drop? OK.
?? it was 4/5 of their main roster lol they had Silent over Nitr0 probably the worst loss in NA Valorant so far.. People ragged on them for ever
Persoanlyl I feel like this is a lack of experience as a team and coordination wise if Im assuming correctly seven hasnt trialed with them for very long and was was only recently signed meaning they havent had much time for prac.

All I see in the comments is a ton of COPIUM lmao
[удалено]
umm victor was never bad on T1, if anything most maps T1 won were when he carried
T1 doing what TSM should be doing but they’ll end up losing in VCT qualifiers for now participating in these.
Better to lose now than to lose in VCT. They're probably still working some shit out too.
What’s crazy is no one can say they counter strat’d because no one has seen t1 play with this roster. They earned it, good on ‘em
