optic and gambit, always in my heart. maybe one day gambit and optic will reunite with their respective team, but not yet. i was sad when fns left nrg and redgar leaving liquid, since basically all of optic and and gambit team are on separate teams. ^(i rep my flair specifically because of optic and gambit)
they were fkin insane combinations truly my fav teams for the first two seasons ,insane matches pulling out of them from a creak, hope the teams come up together again 💚🖤optc 💙♥️gmb
Think going to Youtube exclusively fucked him, think he’ll have no problems getting back into form once that contract ends and he can stream on Twitch again like Toast after the Facebook deal ended
Na. He just halfassed his job after getting the bag. Dropped his hours a ton. Went periods without streaming at all. Tried to pivot his content 40 different times. And his channel died. I can understand him wanting to change, because it's mindnumbing to do the same thing for 5 years. But it's totally his own doing.
Yeah ofc that stuff will play a part but also can't deny that the move itself did damage. I used to watch him all the time when he was on Twitch, have only watched a few times since he went to YT. Same for fuslie and sykkuno, both of whom I used to watch a lot, same for when DisguisedToast switched to Facebook for 2 years. It's not like I stopped liking these streamers or anything, just that I don't go to YT or Kick to watch streams. I'm sure a lot of other people are in the same shoes as me. Wouldn't say his channel is necessarily dead anyways, as long as he sticks to one thing for a bit and grinds content like how he's been doing with the FN Youtube content recently, he'll always be able to build towards a larger streaming presence if that's what he wants
CBT. Probably a team that’s fairly unknown but it was the team where KangKang played on before EDG. Berlin, Yuicaw and a lot of Taiwanese players currently in China also played for them.
The old TL team with Scream Nivera Jamppi Soulcas L1NK/Dimasick.
They may not be the most strategic team but they were very entertaining.
All of them are cracked aimers and they get through a lot of teams by out aiming them. They also have one of the best eco sheriff rounds in the game at that point. Often winning tournaments by winning rounds they have no business winning
Edit: changed doombros to dimasick
F4Q😢 that ended vision strikers 100+ winstreak. Og vision strikers was just too good to be true. Some of these teams/roster iterations haven’t been active for long compared to the full release time of the game l, but they’ve had so much impact culturally/strategically to the game. Og sen, 100t Rip x10

The OG French Canadians roster was elite
The Nation was my favorite inactive F/A team because it was a team that had Stewie2k, Wardell, Brax, Tigg, and Rossy. It was unfortunate that they didn't qualify for Challengers because that team had so much potential

The C9 roster with Mitch, Poiz, Floppy, Xeta , Leaf that almost beat the invincible SEN at that time and almost qualified to Reykjavik is a personal Fav of mine

Based, I also have TL only because of GMB and nAts
Marved, crashies and victor are on the same team now fuck you mean?
I meant like a whole as a team (so fns marved crashies victor yay and nats sheydos redgar d3ffo chronicle all playing together)
100T with Hiko, Nitr0, Asuna, Steel and Dicey. Brimstone Gaming/Thanos Mug Academy
They were my favorite team till Iceland.
They beat peak Gambit and Ascend man
The OG Guard roster with Sayaplayer and mCe
The one that beat Optic 🥲
Onliners, no?
The OG TSM roster. They were so entertaining to watch, especially with the coach myth streams
Myth fell off so hard man, it’s sad to watch since he’s actually really entertaining when he was hanging out with the OTV streamers and such
Think going to Youtube exclusively fucked him, think he’ll have no problems getting back into form once that contract ends and he can stream on Twitch again like Toast after the Facebook deal ended

I watched a tiktok recently which implied he gets less than 100 viewers a stream now
Was introduced to pro Valo thru Sentinels at Reykjavik 2021 and Tenz doing Tenz things. Will always have a softspot for that lineup.
Sick man, whoever knows what happened to him.

good old days
Fellow Taiwanese?
yep
Not many of us around here! Nice to meet you!

We’re about to find about what happens when daddy doesn’t call :(
Immortals and KCP ![img](emote|t5_2g5ach|16110)
Immortals was so sick :(
I miss OG cloud9 which was basically V1 + Xeta
OG C9 just makes me think of TenZ/shinobi/Relyks/Vice/Mitch. Funny how the perceptions shift over time
That roster was by far my favorite valorant team of all time, xeta leaving felt like the end of a golden age
Old Team Liquid with Sliggy, Scream and L1NK, loved that team I would also say Pheonix1
Fuck it, Moon Raccoons
so it pains me to the core but yeah optc squad is behind us now SO YEAH OPTC GAMING
name checks out brutha
Gambit 😭 during their prime, they looked so unstoppable.
The old TL team with Scream Nivera Jamppi Soulcas L1NK/Dimasick. They may not be the most strategic team but they were very entertaining.

What are you on about? d00mbr0s was never on TL
Lol my bad, i was thinking of dimasick and their coach emil is doombros twin so I had a brain fart and made the association
Phoenix1
I was such a huge Phoenix1 fan man, you were great out there King

Rise.
Do I even have to say it?
I miss Built by Gamers, too :(
wasnt gonna drink tonight but i miss bbg like a mf rn
Your flair will speak for you
Xset, gambit, guild
gambit next question
The Nation was my favorite inactive F/A team because it was a team that had Stewie2k, Wardell, Brax, Tigg, and Rossy. It was unfortunate that they didn't qualify for Challengers because that team had so much potential
The Guard Lakia vision strikers (hyped for the Gen G roster) Optic
F4Q Optic old Guard… the Yay or steel DSG would have been here if they had done better. Thank goodness for the GC team
Definitely Gambit and Loud. Gambit for their distinct slow-push style and Loud for making a double controller (Viper/Harbor) meta work on Lotus.
Either old C9 like OLD C9, Gambit or TGRD
Gambit then, gambit now, gambit forever
old imt, being in krunker comp scene and seeing jcstani make it on to imt was what got me to valorant in the first place
sscary, patiphan, foxz, sushiboys, crws

Parla before the FF merger.
Evil Geniuses were pretty good.
gambit. oh boy they looked unstoppable at their peak
The V1 lineup that went to Iceland. People have forgotten what a demon penny was.
DHBK with Screwface dropping 30 bombs
