Reminder to everyone: Riot is just following their usual M.O. of lowering the skill floor to make playing at lower ranks more enjoyable and easier. You still need to call out smoke timings at the pro level but it's less punishing now.

A lot to process right now. So much work was put into our Ascension winning run & we built a program that would've been very competitive next year. Now I have no idea where my team's future lies. Open to talking any potential orgs right now, I'll be a free agent.

We take 2nd place at Masters Bangkok. We fought bravely and showed incredible resilience, but we fell short winning this trophy. Losing is part of life and we just keep on building. I'm proud of how we never gave up. Congrats @T1 , very well played. We will be back.

Congrats to SEN and LEV for being in the top 4 this year. Both are great teams with a perfect mix of firepower, experience, and intelligent team play. Well deserved. It was fun battling both teams all year. Our Americas region is truly the most competitive. Shoutout to.

I hope everyone starts recognizing how important assists are and how Jonah has quietly been one of the best in his role.
With @valynfps & @trentFPS both cracking 1.5k #VCTAmericas kills this weekend, was curious about some other stats and came across something wild. Despite joining the league late via Ascension, this weekend @JonahP_ became the first - and currently only - player to crack 1k VCT

The players thought it was troll with the yoru comp but I pushed it with some setup changes as it fixes some of our issues on haven. GL dealing with our flashes. @s0mcs was actually thinking about playing jett but we convinced him last second to lock in yoru for the match 😅.

After seeing the gloomy sentiment about tier 2 VAL, I want to remind players that you must always be realistic when pursuing your passion and never take things for granted. What you've experienced now is a boom and bust cycle that happens frequently in passion-driven industries.

0-2 vs @EvilGeniuses. Very close game, GGs. Uncharacteristic of us to let Sunset slip there, and we feel like we adjusted in time for their novelty Icebox comp but they capitalized on their moments there. On to @KRUesports tomorrow.

Not defending any specific organization's approach, but I'm concerned about the narrative that implies a level of greed in the players in NA and that we should be happy with what we got compared to EMEA. The situation is more complex and it feels as though we forget what happened.
OpTic talking about why they aren't investing in VALORANT Challengers/Ascension. If this is correct and North American Challenger players are paid "more than baseline CDL players" then no wonder organizations are pausing operations during the off season. Meanwhile in EMEA we'd

There's no way we're calling the GravNet in Deadlock's kit a 'sit nade' or 'crouch grenade.'. I propose we just say 'net.' It's one syllable, easy for new viewers to understand, and simpler for players to call out with 'I'm netted!'.

Matt is an insanely good coach that built 2 world-class teams (2022 Guard & 2023 Cloud9) while working within the constraints of the org. He should be on the shortlist of any VCT org out there.
Unfortunately @Cloud9 has decided to not move forward with myself. I am willing to explore any and all options whether Head Coach or Assistant Coach and even Collegiate if the situation is beneficial for both parties. Willing to relocate as well.
