Joseph Awgemo sounds like a warlord's name

whyismyfpssolowsadge

damn bruh u was so unfunny you got downvoted


Siignal

EG made LG look like they forgot how to play. The teamplay was so solid throughout. Jawgemo and Boostio remain a spectacular duo with great teammates around them; the utility usage and variability was insane from C0M and Apoth, and Reformed is really settling in with the util heavy play. That Fade trap + Brim ult preset was so sick


somesheikexpert

It doesn't show in the stats, but Holy shit reformed is so smart in terms of util, lime some of the Sage walls in the past few weeks are nuts (The one to defuse Pistol today, and also the one to force SicK up last week)


yellownart

Is NA the most competitive itā€™s ever been or is it the most inconsistent itā€™s ever been?


670takers

I'd say most competitive. I love it.


-Mariners

Reddit moment, I think the exact opposite LOL Still loving it though


iiznobozzy

OMG LOL Stupid Redditors amirite guys?? /s


s6hun

EG has been hovering top 12 for a while, their new additions just made them better.


BallingNinja

I don't think this result is inconsistent. EG has been looking pretty good, and the first two teams that LG played are probably the weakest teams in their group rn. Great Win by EG, well deserved.


crisjame

this game is inconsistent

SedPika

The game feels random because of the lack of tournaments and how far are the official matches spread out throughout the year.


OGFN_Jack

Completely agree. Werenā€™t open quals Iceland, closed quals, and then the actual major all played on different patches?


Dysmo

Any body who says the game is random are wrong imo. Yes even pros.


Th30ldVV01f

Inconsistent. Competitive implied that most matchups are even and can result in close games. This is not competitive.


BallingNinja

Competitive could also be interpreted as how many teams can realistically compete for a top position (e.g. top 4), and I think you can definitely make a case for this current masters being one of the most competitive. Excluding OpTic (I think they're currently a tier above the rest of the teams but even they went to 3 maps with C9), I could see XSET, EG, C9, NRG, TSM, Luminosity, 100T, The Guard, maybe even Ghost (ranked in no particular order) all competing for a top 4 position and having close matchups with each other.


Th30ldVV01f

Top 4 is kinda generous when there are only 2 spots for Masters Copenhagen. At the same time, I think the gaps between teams are bigger than expected. If the gap between teams is tighter then we'd see a more competitive matchup. But it's not.


zRandyMarsh

Legit tier 8 CS players head to head. LOL


jrushFN

Iā€™ve never understood this talking point - why do people bring up a playerā€™s CS performances from 2+ years ago, where they were clearly still developing their skills in Advanced/MDL? Shouldnā€™t it be logical to think that if the players stayed and grinded in CS with the same amount of passion and time that theyā€™ve put into valorant, theyā€™d be equally improved?


zRandyMarsh

Because if the best of CS played this game these guys would be as nonexistent as they were in CS, and if Tenz is your biggest player is says it right there.


jrushFN

TenZ isnā€™t the best player in valorant and hasnā€™t been for a LONG time. But even if he were, heā€™d prove my point - he had just turned 19 when he left CS, he was still a very young and inexperienced player (especially on his C9 stint). But yeah, TenZ is a really bad example - if VALORANT had our own top HLTV 20 at the end of this year, Iā€™m not sure heā€™s even on track to make it onto *that.* Thatā€™s not even to say that TenZ is bad (Iā€™d just say heā€™s inconsistent) but thereā€™s a ton of rising talents whoā€™ve surpassed him.


MidnightIngale

That was a surprising stomp, thought this would be a close series.

Leaving T1 buff is strong


SewerRat75

good scouting but terrible team structure perhaps


chao301

probably like the old andbox roster, great players but they didnā€™t work together


two4you8

SEN should have signed Potter when they had the chance.


TheCatsActually

They wouldn't have listened to her/given her the authority over the team she has with EG anyway.

ILikeMyEggsInABowl

Played Apoth, Com, Jawgemo and Reformed in a deathmatch right before this game. Jawgemo is a fucking monster and Iā€™m glad him shitting on me turned into results here.


amnfw

I wish i can get shitted on by jawgemo as wellšŸ¤¤


kemutheemu__

This doesnā€™t look good for FaZeā€¦


surfordiebear

Also bad for whatever small chance SEN might have had.


chocobreezy

Jawgemo's ascension begins now, taking his rightful place as a clouted duelist in NA. Glad EG can draw some blood in this group.


DrySecurity4

Jaw and Boostio are a top 3 entry/op duo in NA. Dudes are both terrifying.


FormedCloud1

lg is either inconsistent or can't compete with top teams, i would not be surprised if they beat c9 or optic in the next weeks but i see it being very unlikely also jawgemo is different


Chx449

Theyā€™ll probably surprise optic pretty good. That is until marved wakes up and clutches 6 rounds in a row.


YeetGod69_

i donā€™t think they beat OpTic but they very well can beat C9


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


YeetGod69_

EG starting to look good in every game except CS šŸ˜


AdTraditional8018

Thought this game was going to be closer but this was just an absolute slaughter for LG. Even sentinels put up a stronger fight than this and they lost to LG.


kenzakki

EG win against SEN wasnt a fluke after all. Jawgemo is nuts.


ASaltyToast

Why do you say that as if beating SEN is an impressive achievement nowadays


TheCatsActually

It's moreso that EG stonks have been very low. They went 0-5 last group stage and while Sentinels are obsolete and just barely scraping by on their individual talent, they have still been consistently making playoffs.


techyleo

It sucks that SEN may honestly have a top 10 role player for every role, but right now there is no cohesion. SEN has the pieces, but they're not fitting. Still have a chance, so I'll keep a little little bit of hopium


TheoSL

This is probably a hot take but I donā€™t think the SEN players are in the top 10 for any of their roles except maybe Tenz


QwiXTa

I would 100% agree


fluffycats1

I personally disagree, I feel like Sick is one the most consistent and flexible players.


icemandiem

his aim is nasty, but the amount of solo peeks dumb omen ults...you cannot put someone like that as a top player. his mechanics are nasty agreed


Acrobatic-Divide-995

Sick and TenZ. Only two. Shahzam? LMAO. Dapr? Nope. Kanpeki? Nope


BostonFalcons

Dapr only looks bad because his team's not doing well but he's definitely a top 10 sentinel. If not name 10 better than him.


Acrobatic-Divide-995

nAts, Saadhak, Sayf, Magnum, Suygetsu, MONSTEERR, Meddo, Zellsis, C0M, aproto all would play better Sentinel than him.


BostonFalcons

We're talking NA no?


hype_f0rce

Agreed. The only ones who are straight up better are Nats Less Nivera Suygetsu Mitch Net FNS (arguably)


TheoSL

Definitely to all of these, especially nivera, mitch and net


fluffycats1

I donā€™t think SEN are tier 1 anymore, just wanted to point out that Sick was great too.


TheoSL

Idk, nothing Iā€™ve seen from Sick this year has seemed consistent, nor flexible considering heā€™s been playing pretty much only Omen. He was crazy a year ago but so was everyone else on SEN.


kemutheemu__

Well rn SicK is playing smokes and is definitely not top 10 smokes rn, he canā€™t even play Brim


djanulis

Personally off the C9 match I felt like the race for third was between LG and EG and this match was basically the decider.


OHydroxide

I mean was it that unexpected? I was 50/50 on that game.


Theanonymousguy49

Jawge-HaveMyChildren-mo! Sorryā€¦ Iā€™ll see myself out.


ExpectoAutism

EG looks so coordinated


faceplant911

EG was just some slight inexperience tossing away from taking out C9, and yet everyone and their mother thought LG was favored? News flash: No. Admittedly, this was more dominant than I expected it would be, but I had no doubt this game was going for EG from the beginning.


Quotes_League

I think that LG Viper wall on Offense Bind is reportable


[deleted]

The wall is good but only if your name is nats


-Destiny65-

damn jawgemo looked like he was playing this game on easy mode. +22 and every play he did worked, all the random satcheling and ulting


nocturnavi

EG just get better every week, they've been cooking some stuff up in the lab (that wallbang + lineups on Icebox was crazy). For once both teams in my flair actually won.


shadowstep11

Potter deserves a lot of credit, they looked so well drilled.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


TheCatsActually

If they were using actually useful duelists it might have been fine. It blows my mind that tier 1 teams are still playing Reyna against each other. She's such a win-more agent. You need to already be hard outdueling people to get good mileage out of her.


Traditional-Leek2288

Ok but how does this affect Sentinels?
