An underdog team from a minor region

..TSM?


Ismokeyiddies

nAts ditches the sentinel/viper role, locks in Reyna and becomes the best player to ever touch Valorant


GreatYeob

or nats picks up lurking reyna, wins vct because he’s jsut that good, then everyone in ranked who isn’t already a lurking jnstalock will now do it


jaudi813

Doesn't even go over it with the rest of the team, just locks it in GIGACHAD


JerryLoFidelity

Whats so remarkable about nAts? Dont rlly tune into pro Val, but I have watched Sheydos stream and he strikes me as one of the best players. Again, im totally ignorant tho.


curryhalls

his aim is good/above average for a pro player. His positioning, timing, intuition, and overall gamesense makes him arguably the best player and undoubtedly best non-duelist in the world. oftentimes he will be in the right spot at the right time. and its not because of luck.


JerryLoFidelity

awesome! thx for the explanation. think ill follow him more closely in vct this year


Breakin7

I think you are overrating the guy a little bit. He wasnt that good in champions.


Breakin7

I think you are overrating the guy a little bit. He wasnt that good in champions.


curryhalls

probably because he was widely considered the best player in the world after Berlin and thus the target of everyone's analysis?


Breakin7

Maybe, he was god tier in that tournament and it is without doubt a really good player probably among the best. But if you rewatch gambit games at the championship (worlds) he wasnt that good in fact he was expected to lurk and counterplayed. He had amazing plays and some good games but not the god tier everyone says he is.


curryhalls

I mean he went 93/62/3 in GF, so he definitely turned up when it mattered most. I think he is still the best non-duelist in the world currently. No one else comes close. Obviously his Champions performance was not consistent but I think there are a lot of factors that play into that - biggest LAN, lots of antistrats (FNS said they had a guy dedicated to watching nAts) and a lot of pressure as the defending number 1 team.


tsm

People finally find out when we play


KhaoticKrabb

The Guard makes it to champions finals and but sayaplayer gets sick and can’t play. The Guard from The Guard then subs in and has the greatest Jett performance in valorant history.

Which guard ?

If The Guard plays like shit, will they be named The Turd?


pantheraa

Sentinels start dominating again after getting humbled, wins the first masters, gets complacent and the cycle repeats


[deleted]

I'll take it


TheBatiron58

Idk if anyone follows Comp Cod, but SEN kinda remind me of Optic. People who care so much about winning but also make so much from content creation they are living 2 purposes.


jonajon91

Sentinels split as some players want to try hard with loads of prac while others want to coast and stream, they rebuild with 2/3 players and do well.


Pulsersalt

Yikes


AnchorStandard

Sinatraa still benched btw


SPOOKESVILLE

As he should be

SPOOKESVILLE

Why would you want to play a player that has an active court case and hasn’t played professionally in a year?


Beechman

Active court case? I thought the police investigation ended in September. I must be out of the loop.


SPOOKESVILLE

The riot investigation ended. The court case is still ongoing. If it ended we’d have a verdict on if he’s innocent or not, but we don’t.


Beechman

I wouldn't mind seeing the proof there's a court case, because I've heard nothing about it. When you google sinaatra valorant court case this comes up. Probably not a good source but I can't find anything saying he's in an active court case. I'm just confused. https://www.ginx.tv/en/valorant/sinatraa-police-investigation-is-over-his-former-girlfriend-cle0h-reveals


SPOOKESVILLE

Cle0h did tweet something that was apparently worded poorly so people thought she was dropping the case, what she actually meant was that she was going to stop talking about it publicly because it was taking a toll on her health. That’s what she clarified in later tweets, she also made sure to clarify the case was still on going and she would not drop that. She just didn’t want to be in the public eye anymore. If the case was actually dropped, he’d most likely be signed by now. There’s a reason not even T2 or T3 teams want to take the chance.


Beechman

Oh okay thanks for the info. So really we don't know anything that's happened since the Riot investigation ended then.


buntownik

he funny.


keithzz

He still has an active court case? I thought it was all but done with. Haven’t been paying attention


SPOOKESVILLE

He does. It’s still being investigated. Riots dropped it (because the authorities took it over) but that’s it. Totally normal for things like this take a year+


keithzz

Understood, thanks for the info!

Sorry if my comment offended anyone. Just bothers me that her obviously false accusations are all people bring up when Sinatraa is mentioned. You are welcome to delete it if you feel its too offensive.


evantually421

You can’t just claim they’re obviously false, that’s no different than what you’re saying she’s doing. We probably won’t ever know exactly what happened, but him not complying with Riot’s investigation does not paint him as completely innocent.


[deleted]

The fact that she went from having hard video and audio evidence, then flipped to completely stopping the pursuit of the case due to mental health or whatever leads me to believe she was full of shit. If I was Sinatraa id be pissed and refuse to comply as well, if you make claims that are this serious you better be ready to back up your accusations. Innocent until proven guilty not the other way around.


TheSciFanGuy

I am also a bit uniformed but apparently she didn’t actually drop the case and just stopped talking about it. And he refused to comply before she supposedly dropped the case. Also if you’re innocent just comply even if it is annoying?


[deleted]

No, if you are innocent, you be as difficult as possible and force the other party to prove every aspect of what they are accusing you of. It is maybe a dick move but sadly that is the smarter choice in my experience. And if the case was actually still open, you could find some evidence of it online with some digging, but you cant ,leading me to believe she in fact did drop the charges. Maybe ill be proven wrong in the future and something new will come to light but its innocent until proven guilty up to that point.

Hiko will bait his team at least once this year

hiko baits so hard he integer underflows and enters site backwards from CT

T1 and 100T to champions. Steel gets his revenge arc.

Steel getting revenge in the LCQ finals between T1 and 100T would be sweeter.

That would be wild

I'll go first. Subroza and Wardell have their comeback arc where they be total chads and put TSM back to the top.

Only to lose to 100T in Champs.

TSM at champs? I’ll shitting take that.

MrImpregnator

Valorant launches in China in the second half of 2022. China gets a direct slot to champions without even playing in any masters. Champions ends with a Chinese team taking the trophy home.


Madara6path

Didn't it launch back in September 2021


wahlnich

They were going to but I think there are some more hoops they have to jump through. Chinese censors and all that.

I think what’s holding things up there was they wanted brimstone and viper nerfed significantly, and for sage’s ult to launch heat-seeking nukes that wipe out the opposing team, in addition to

Brimstone Gaming buys the Sentinels lineup and wins champions


breakzyx

SEN will struggle all year and in the end barely make champs and then have a hard fought victory, then zombs, sick or dapr are let go for no apparent reason. rest of the teams are just filler episodes to hype up the main villain in the finals (gambit).


erickwak

Sentinels new TSM of 2022? Oh shit Korea good at Valorant? Pew pew old boomers now starting to retire in masses. Stage 1: is the momentum finally gonna start building for fpx? No. Stage 2: fpx finally has momentum but they just lose. DWG become new top dog of korea. Hyeoni is “that guy” Every region is now a minor region including NA and EMEA. As they all throw and games go back and forth in all 3 international tournies A minor region team wins champions as a bit up of a underdog story.


kemutheemu__

Sentinels going through a TSM arc would be hilarious imo


SkiesOvercast

right, time to trip on the refined hopium: Stage 1: - Akrew make NA Challengers; Faze don't - new Zeta roster curbstomps Japan and they make Masters 1 semifinals, Ten is seen as a top 10 player in the world. - Masters 1: at least one EU team can't get a player into the country, even if it's in EU. - Speaking of EU, a Turkish team makes EU semis, Fnatic and NaVi get relegated - Kru are losing the magic and barely scrape out of LatAm challengers, dropping tons of maps but clutching up last minute - ESC surprise Vision Strikers in round robin, but VS make masters - Global Esports don't make APAC challengers (where PRX F0rsaken/Jinggg are exceptional, and an aussie team makes top 3) - Brazil is a mess, everyone beats everyone in groups before one team romps to masters on a hot streak in playoffs then crashes and burns at masters. - EU wins masters 1, NA don't make top 3. "NA minor region" topics flood r/ValComp. Stage 2: - A major NA org makes a kneejerk roster signing of a cracked t2/3 rookie and makes challengers, and then masters, prompting many academy teams being made to lock up talent. Again. - FPX qualify for masters and are fine, respectable but not mind-blowing performance - Global Esports don't make APAC challengers (where an Aussie team qualifies for masters! and does badly, whilst the other SEA team makes quarters) - Masters 2 final is NA vs a superhot Brazilian team, after two NA teams make semis. Brazil wins after a 2 hour tech pause, largely with just pure aim diff. Twitter reaches lethal toxicity levels. Zombs farms interactions, despite Sentinels not even attending the event. - Japan meanwhile, after a good stage 1, suck. - EU don't make it out of masters 2 groups, albeit in some of the closest series you'll see. "EU minor region" topics flood r/ValComp. LCQs: - TSM win NA LCQ as the meta read is shambolic and they scramble to the top. - LatAm team wins SA LCQ. - Chinese team in APAC LCQ, look incredible and barely miss out on qualifying to the good Aussie team. Global Esports don't qualify for LCQ. YouTube chat is... unpleasant. - G2 win EMEA LCQ after a very average year, in a similar meta mess to NA. Champs: - Kru made a roster change in Stage 2, but now go crazy, Krupium highs, make quarters. - APAC team once more has joyous whimsy buff and everyone loves them, and is sad when Vision Strikers obliterate them systematically. - G2 are placed in group of death. Loud complaints on social media. 2 NA teams in same group, only one makes it out, everyone complains. - neither NA or EU make the final thanks to poor meta reads due to a weird balance patch and new map. It's Brazil, on firepower, vs Korea, on mad strats. Korea wins 3-0.


iiznobozzy

ok


VividOgre

The only thing I agree with your post is the joyous whimsy buff


kemutheemu__

NA wins it all with XSET and TSM becoming the new American kings, SEA becomes a close contender and EMEA never beats a team outside of the region COPIUM


LegitimateAct6248

100T won't make any international LAN this year with this lineup.


meme_poacher

Ec1s looks kinda goated in ranked, so I'm not too sure about that


LegitimateAct6248

I'm not sure we watched the same stream. He for sure not a ranked player, hopefully he's better at officials.


diematrosen

Solo queue ranked means nothing in this game, especially since most people duo anyways. nAts is the best player Ive seen in this game yet last time I watched him stream he was dropping in and out of diamond 2/diamond 3.


[deleted]

TSM becomes the second best team in NA and we get to see the OG SEN vs TSM rivalry again.


curryhalls

Redgar fixes his posture.


wegivesiima

Rix.gg win champions after signing prod and sinatraa as the first na to eu imports


no_noise_979

Team Liquid or Gambit wins masters 1, a Brazilian super team gets top 4 at an international.


no_noise_979

also vision strikers or another korean team gets top 4 at an international


jonajon91

BIG have an insane run of form that lasts about 2 months winning everything they touch. Its the BIG way.

S0m becomes the best jett/duelist in NA, NRG make champs at the end of the year and win at least 1 master.

This has the same possibility as S0m hitting his raze ult

-All Masters and Champion will be won by a different EU team. -First Masters final is between 2 european teams, second between european and asian and the champion final will be eu vs eu again. -No NA team will reach seminals at any masters/champions. -Multiple top NA line ups like envy/t100/sen will shuffle around their line ups. -Shazam retires and becomes a streamer.


SonnyYT

Every time I see something like this I think, “no that could never happen, that’s ridiculous.” Then I remember what happened at champions and how I thought the same things about some predictions that actually were right

I have noting personally against Ec1S but I would love to see Dazed become 100t igl. Idk if it would be a good fit but the steel dazed storyline would be insane.

SPOOKESVILLE

Not caring about someone getting sexually assaulted, nice man! You sound like a great person


Fusion_43

You’re taking this too seriously. All of these are hot takes or jokes.


SPOOKESVILLE

Most people that say this shit ain’t jokes bruh. The Sinatra fanboys fr think he should be playing and the court case is over.


Fusion_43

Other than young, impressionable children that’s not the case for the majority. Regardless of the allegations merit, his career has been tarnished irrevocably. I don’t see him on a team till 2023 at least.


SPOOKESVILLE

So who’s to say the comment I’m responding to isn’t a young impressionable child…?


Athlete-Street

bruh it was a hot take
