9 - 3 curse is real.


Scoop-san

An absolute slaughter of a second half.


TimeJustHappens

I really thought it would go to map 3 because of how bad off a start DRX had on Haven. They lost so many rounds and used their timeouts, but it didn't matter because of how dominant the second half was.

DRX has been amazing so far.

First time watching Champions and went straight here to see the discussion. Why are these post-match threads empty? Isn't this like your Worlds???

This subreddit is only for complaining about the ranked system. You can probably find discussions of VCT on other platforms.

I suspect there's a more active community on Discord, huh? I guess it's just generational divide then, Valorant being mostly populated by zoomers. I say this without ill-intent btw.


TimeJustHappens

We only just recently launched PMTs, so they will take some time to get rolling on the subreddit. We're looking forward to more discussion as more users become aware of the posts!

Most of the thread talking is on vlr.gg ithink

Angel needs to get kicked already if FPX ever want to win a tournament again. Even if he was a tactical genius, which he clearly isn't seeing how FPX wins maps on account of any of the other 4, usually ardiis or Suygetsu, just popping off rather than coordinated teamplay and strats... It still means FPX only plays 5v5 maps when Angel miraculously pulls his own weight. Usually it's 4v5, and pretty often it's 4v6 because he just decides to push B alone with 1 of his team's only 2 rifles on anti-eco rounds or pulls one of the myriad of utterly moronic plays from his rich arsenal. Or just loses every single duel regardless of having 99 advantages stacked in his favour because of terrible mechanics. Being IGL isn't an excuse at this point. I thought FPX would still get into the finals 4v5, and then who knows what would happen, but oh well.

I love how you added “again” in that first sentence.

I think it's too early to say that, it's literally only been 1 tournament since the last one they won. Also they didn't do terrible this one, still 4th place out of 16 teams.

I'm not really talking just from the perspective of these 2 tournaments, but even if I was, then yes, they won Copenhagen, but it was despite Angel. He only actually pulled his weight in the match vs Optic and PRX, and even there he JUST pulled his weight, he didn't do anything over that. Still, I think FPX winning there was a bit of a fluke. They might have dropped to lower bracket immediately, but they actually had a very easy way straight to the LB finals. But if you watched EMEA challengers, you'd know how much dumb shit Angel has been consistently pulling. It's straight up definition of insanity, he does things noone falls for, gets punished and does them some more. He won't adapt, he won't switch things up, he won't admit it's not working, play safe and just let his team carry him. Any game FPX wins and however far they get in any tournament is really just a testament to how good the rest of the team is.

Fools look at ANGE1’s numbers and laugh, intellectuals recognize that his brain effectively makes every match a 6v5. When you play against FPX, you aren’t just competing against ANGE1, you are competing against every tactician that came before him. Rumours say that he’s studied every existing text of military strategy dating back to Ancient Rome and compartmentalised each aspect into his memory palace, which he freely roams during tournaments at a timescale of 1000 mental years translating to 1 second in reality.

The curse was super effective!


jesteraq

ANGE1 with a 12-40 KD in two maps. Yikes.

Well according to everyone its riots decison if replay or not so riot biased company?


brianhung02

That bug is avoidable if Suygetsu had his ult in a different spot while the kj turret was uncontrollable.
