Oh yea that is right, what a shitshow

2018-12-02 13:17

no kinguin as well. im probably missing out some more decent teams as well. maybe they rejected invites but its unlikely i guess.

2018-12-02 13:18

Well with 2 shit cis teams in evert group i really think that no one would reject this

2018-12-02 13:25

probably. whats weird is windigo and windigo academy might face each other.

2018-12-02 13:26

Valiance and Riders could have been invited imo

Riders=Valiance in terms of results shown Teams like Nemiga, 3dmax, windigo AC, winstrike, dream eaters, etc are way worse

Last time when vali and riders played vali trashed them 3-0 and that was with the old team,so now with nexa it would be maybe even a 16-0.The cis team had to be invited cause it is a cis tournament but yea 3dmax sucks dick they even lost to vali 2-0 this week...

3dmax are pretty good they might make epl but they changed 2 players so thats weird. but they definitely deserved a call too imo.

2018-12-02 13:27

It was a 2-0 and when riders was going through a rough time. They added a coach and are much better than they used to be. Valiance have achieved nothing so they deserve the invitation as much as Riders deserves it.

Nothing? You are calling nothing qualifing for wesg, and for katowice closed qualifier. Plus vali is second in UML a league which consists of all tier 2 top teams(RR,AGO,Sprout,Windigo,LDLC and so on).To put that in perspective with what riders have done is nothing

2018-12-02 13:50

Red reserve lul Sprout lul ldlc chokers lul Riders have qualified for Wesg as well. But whatever...

If i recall riders lost to sprout this week hmmm what a coincedenc, and ldlc made a nice run oj a big lan. But those teams are nothing compared to those that you are fighting in esea advancde

Sprout is not a tier 2 team, that's what I'm saying. Red Reserve is as bad as Movistar Riders or even worse. Ldlc can have good runs, but then lose against much lesser teams (as they did against Riders) so beating them doesn't really mean much

2018-12-02 14:05

By posting this you are confirming how little to none cs knowlege you have

2018-12-02 14:12

Whatever, dude. I think you're overhyping Valiance a bit

2018-12-02 14:16

Wow valiance qualified for wesg... what a hard qualifier i guess hahaha

2018-12-03 01:02

Same for ex ss wtf who cares scream's mix team

2018-12-02 13:07
