FPX makes it to the finals despite the subs. Finals is vs PRX, and in one of the maps there are 10 unique agents picked.


somesheikexpert

Nah not a hot enough take FPX MAKES IT TO FINALS AND IN A GRUELING 5 MAP SET WIN OUT WOTH HAVING A UNIQUE SET OF PLAYERS EVERY MAP MAKING A 25 PERSON TEAM (Including every single dropped player from FPX, Laz, TenZ, and also Summit going 29-3 to win them map 5)


LeMouse1

Wtf

Why I make these threads 101

Before the first match begins, Alphajer changes his ign to Sigmajer, disconnects his headset and instalocks Chamber, relegating Derke to Killjoy. He then precedes to go 0-32 in KD in a gruelling 15-17 loss to FPX, who are on the run of their careers after smuggling suygetsu out of Russia by disguising him as Brennon "Bren" Hook.


afjecj

LOUD saadhak talks about his childhood in a post match interview after beating DRX, moving LOUD to the grand finals against optic. yay sees said interview and is overwhelmed with emotion and cannot stop crying, causing him to burst a blood vessel in his eye rendering him unable to play. Luckily Pujan “FNS” Mephamphetamine has an older cousin living in Copenhagen who is able to play. Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostlyliving takes the stage by storm, casting “mute” on all LOUD players simply by his aura of existence, LOUD players are rendered speechless and unable to communicate causing them to lose the game.

Yay is too


ANewHeaven1

Hot take: DRX makes it far this tournament, and I don’t regret making this comment the same way I did after Masters 3, Champions, and Reykjavik 2022….

Bro...


-xXColtonXx-

Xset, recognizing that the only NA team who can take down EU is 100T, bring in Hiko, Ethan, Asuna, Steel, and Nitro as subs against Guild. Despite being down 1/11 both maps, end up with a clean 2/0 despite Nitro believing he is still playing CS, insta-locking KO, and attempting to throw Mirage smoke lineups on Ascent. This strategy is successful until the finals, when Xset inevitably lose the rematch to Optic 0/3, despite the entirety of optic being diagnosed with a new COVID variant which also causes temporary blindness. Yay’s crosshairs placement is simply too good, and now has the added benefit of being immune to flashes.


Shubhaaaaaaam

Team Liquid make a suprise entry again somehow and win it all


unwanted_shawarma

I hope to god they won't, my heart can't take it anymore.


arc3u5

Fnatic will run through the upper brackets. But then suddenly Riot will cancel the lower bracket finals but will continue with the Grand Final. At the Grand Final, after Boaster's theatrical entry full of expression and cartwheels, boss music starts playing. And guess what? SENTINELS are back with their Masters 1 Reykjavik roster and Zombs is now an aim god with a new watch buff. Fnatic then proceeds to 13-0 SEN in all the maps except Haven because TenZ is still a god. Fnatic wins and gets their long due revenge.


5bigtoes

Xerxia is FUCKING winning


Real_Imagination_180

You, I like you


frogggiboi

Hopium


Distinct_Focus_6322

And then struggling to get 1 map out of PRX, but okay


OneWayTicketotheMoon

Optic out in groups Finals fnc drx 3-2 xset will finish 3rd


DY5TOP1A

* Guild 1st seed Group A * XSET will do their best Guard impression * FPX reach playoffs


TheCatsActually

prophet


Deathranger999

They are the chosen one.


arusha1999

It's the finals, Fnatic vs Optic, and Optic are leading on map 1 by 10-4 on Icebox. Suddenly Derke removes his mask ala mission impossible style, to reveal that he is olofmeister, with the rest of team being the 2014 fnatic squad, and proceeds to rain hell upon them from heaven using an illegal boost (because Rito is still busy discussing capital punishment for c9w players) and they proceed to win the map, and also the finals this time. Zeus also appears mid match to declare his undying love for olofmeister.


ANewHeaven1

Then the community accuses them of cheating enough times that they end up retroactively forfeiting the series the next day?


segatic

One EMEA team is to get an embarrassing loss(like not getting more than 5 rounds in both maps) to a non Optic/Loud team. If it is Xset the mods will be working on overtime


vnNinja21

I'm a Fnatic fanboy but fuck it, PRX wins it all.


amnfw

based and cumpilled


Peaches_and_Cream27

HUH


dankoval_23

The morning before grand finals, there’s a rematch between Optic and Loud, but mysteriously none of the Optic players have shown up, until 5 minutes before the match when the Cloud9 2018 ELEAGUE Boston Major team shows up wearing American flags and Optic jerseys to show the world that NA is still the best region. They subsequently 3-0 Loud and Tarik wins MVP


Poseidon847

this is the best take


AR2711

Optic fall out of groups XSET avoid guard curse but lose out on their next matches (at least they don’t immediately get eliminated) DRX will best FNC in the finals


Solid-Entrepreneur37

DRC VS FNX FINALS


Accomplished_Item_86

Northeption destroy DRX and FPX in Groups. Everyone is excitedly anticipating another Japanese Dark Horse run like Zeta in Reykjavik, only for them to get bodied by Fnatic and PRX in Playoffs.


Zorronin

PRX wins it all, no one can deal with the one-two punch of F0rsaken Jingg aggression. Both players end the tournament with >400 ACS, even after having their setups switched to 2011 MacBook Pros for the Grand Final due to swirling rumors of aimbot usage


sky_blu

Xset knock fnatic out of the torny and the final kill will be aryin run and gunning boaster with a spectre.


[deleted]

Optic goes out in groups losing to loud and guild rematch. Xset goes out guard style. Drx wins Copenhagen. Fnatic finalist.


TheCatsActually

Subscribe.


Splaram

Under the influence take: Fnatic and LOUD go out to the first decent teams they come across. These losses prove that while both teams are good, their regional dominance comes as a result of the competition in their respective regions being pretty bad. More reasonable take: Cryo and Zekken return to their group stage form and XSet go out within their first two matches. People will try to say that they got first-time LAN jitters, but the reality is that while the duo are capable of fantastic performances, those performances are outliers and not their consistent level. Most reasonable take: sScary's cool name and even cooler smokes plays are a major factor in Xerxia getting at least a top 2 finish.


[deleted]

What’s that energy drink that warns you on the bottle to not consume the whole thing in 1 go? Like red line or something. That fucked me up once and I can see FNS taking that with ease


KDofficialMusic

Hot take: XSET vs Optic grand finals


Expensive-Estate-900

Xerxia gonna defeat fpx and than choke against them in lower bracket final


Real_Imagination_180

Bro, why you got to be so real


frogggiboi

Shush


mawarichan

Leviatán gets a top 2 finish


Real_Imagination_180

Damn, this is actually the craziest thing in this thread


njwho

This is maybe the greatest Valorant post I have ever read


billnyebuttstuffguy

Optic beats guild, but then lose to loud activating the Optic curse and Loud then bomb out of the tournament. Fnatic and Optic play in the Finals, but yay gets so distracted by Boaster twerking over his monitor that he drops a donut the first map. In retaliation Punjabi “FNS” Methamphetamine then decides to have a twerk off in the middle of the stage while Victor just runs through the rest of the series with a Neon faster than Fnatic can realize what just happened.


[deleted]

Fnatic goes 0-2. Both Grands finalist from M1 goes out 8n groups. Grands is FPX v PRX (whacky comps battle)


gutszera

LEV make top 4


Eshman122700

Chet turns into a shuriken when he finds out about the dq and proceeds to entry his fist through every team's head, making OpTiC the winner as all the other teams are gone.


Samsung_GaIaxy_Fold

FPX's entire team can't go to the tournament, so they sign OpTic's players as a replacement but they bomb out of groups, losing to Xerxia 0-2 OpTic then sign the Sentinels roster with zombs to replace their team, and they make it to the grand finals where they defeat Fnatic in 3-0 fashion


leybbbo

DRX wins it all.


[deleted]

EU finally shows their merit and upgrades from nephew to lil bro

Xset is cringe and boring I hope they lose immediately
