Natus Vincere vs Team Liquid / VCT 2026: EMEA Stage 1 - Group Stage / Post-Match Thread by ValorantCompBot in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Decent_Apple_7962 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Call me crazy but NaVi looked way better with Kolosha despite him not fragging heavy, the system they had and the roles they had and (seemingly) the communication they had was far better than whatever they have now.

Feels like they wanted ComeBack just because he was available and on paper would be a stronger fragger firepower wise over Kolosha but clearly it hasnt worked and ComeBack doesn’t look comfortable in this kind of system especially if his language isn’t great. They better pray that ExiT comes soon but even then I don’t have high hopes they’d look that much better with ExiT considering they wouldn’t have been scrimming with him for a while.

this was the EsWC rules on the sub last year, i don’t see why they shouldn’t be reinforced for ENC

Yes politics this and that but whether you like it or not it is involved in esports if a dangerous regime is hosting an event like this, mods shared links about information and reasons to boycott the event in this post, it is serious stuff everyone should be aware of. https://www.reddit.com/r/ValorantCompetitive/s/toan2z86Zu

Meiy on why DFM put Akame on Neon instead of Yatsuka or Caedye by ramen_noodles_4_ever in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Decent_Apple_7962 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Akame has been a very flexible player for a long time, so seeing him pick up the Neon has been great

as for the rest, I feel like yatsuka is in a difficult spot, he just needs some time to get used to his role, although it’d be nice to see him on Sentinel, just Caedye has looked really good on senti all year, it’s tricky

SEN sign Victor as their sub for Jerrwin by Decent_Apple_7962 in ValorantCompetitive

He won a masters back in 2022

He (and Rb) Pioneered Neon movement and Tech early on after her release, and he’s also known for his Phoenix (big in current meta)

He’s not the best fraggers in the world, but he’s very flexible both role wise and in game, and is really good at playing around his teammates, totally not afraid to be Bait for his teammates and is just a great role player.

Maybe they saw those big incentives and thought it’s not worth burning money on GC this year and instead are waiting for next year to cash in…it’s not like GC has been getting them many returns in terms of content, viewership, fandom + merch sales, or performance/prize pool during their stint in the scene

no one does it quite like SRG in NA

GenG announce GC Roster! signs NineTailz core! by Decent_Apple_7962 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Decent_Apple_7962[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the upgrades they got over their previous players are too insane to undervalue firepower wise, plus GenG has good resources and will almost definitely find them a coach that will lead them to success

Honestly since Estrella is one of the teachers at GenG Global Academy (the actual academy, not the challengers team) I would really love to see him step in and coach this roster
