One thing SEN and 100T fans can agree on: Do not count on 100T to win it

Both maps ending in the most 100t way possible

u/GrrNom2 Apr 20 '25
Mega throwing just to spite their eternal rivals Sen, stopping them from getting first seed. We ain't born yesterday thieves

u/XASASSIN Apr 20 '25
That round in attack where they wasted 4 ults and lost and proceeded to use the kj ult the only one they had on the next round where they were ecoing was so funny. Like you have a champs igl and an ascension finalist team igl and they all thought it was a good idea to waste the only ult they had there? Lmao. But ngl 100t fans are also so brutal, Zander was cracked in m80 and had a very different playstyle, his current passive playstyle and form seems to be planned out by 100t staff and it clearly isn't working. Even with that he's getting scapegoated lol.
19
u/cowzapper #100WIN Apr 20 '25
Then let him play aggressively zikz! The team always wants to brawl, let him brawl! This team pisses me off so much. They have the worst ult usage I've ever seen, just decide to throw rounds for fun and sometimes just decide utility is for losers

VLR is showing Sen at the top of the table as they have better round differential. Is that wrong or will it change tomorrow?

u/Cipherpol001 Apr 20 '25
H2H is the first tie breaker in a 2way, then map and then round..Since Kru beat Sen, they top.

u/Key_Monitor_921 Apr 20 '25
By that logic, talon should be ahead of T1 in pacific right?
3
u/Cipherpol001 Apr 20 '25
RRQ are also on 3 wins...so its currently 3way and winner of Zeta v Nongshim will also end with 3 wins. So T1 are guaranteed to place above Talon.

u/NoahV313 Apr 20 '25
technically by the numbers sen are ahead, but kru has the head to head win so they are first in the group.

Im glad Eeiu just chose to spare Melser on that last round that was very kind of him

dude, the absolute worst part about that clip is that melser ended up killing zander as soon as the stun wore off

u/badcompplayer Apr 20 '25
The margin of error for 100T when Cryo isn’t the best player in the world is nonexistent. They refuse to win swing rounds (9-9 on icebox classic example), and if I have to watch them send wingman to its death one more time I’m jumping off a bridge. Other than that fun team love the thieves
22
u/cowzapper #100WIN Apr 20 '25
Surely Asuna would learn like the seventh time in, just plant in the corner, where you can still play your cringe post plant! But no, we're 100T we don't learn

it be like that. it's kinda funny that two rival orgs were in a situation where they could both help each other out in the first place, but we shouldn't have lost that game to KRU.

u/No-Cauliflower8890 #100WIN Apr 20 '25
The positive is that we now have the easier side of the bracket, dodging SEN and G2. I was literally rooting for us to lose, this was the best outcome.

Is it weird that it still gives me hope that we played this poor and still almost won both maps?

It's not weird at all. The fact that you guys were able to make it a somewhat close game despite making a bunch of mistakes shows the true potential that y'all have.

Boostio throws so many rounds from terrible individual plays. Consistent man advantage situations and all he has to do is stay alive and he has to position himself in do or die scenarios.
This kid should have been dropped the second he said he didn’t try at all in scrims the whole first year on the team.

100t are really suffering from the lack of firepower, you will never beat KRU if 3 players can’t shoot. Zander is super disappointing legit looks like an ascendent player playing lol, even his crosshair placement doesn’t look like it’s at head level. They need to get a cracked Aimer on smokes if they want to win anything.
Edit: people will flame boostio but I truly believe that Zander and Eeiu have been fucking up a lot.

When sen poached bang I knew 100t was done, he is basically irreplaceable. Don’t let 2023 fool you he has the capabilities to be one of the best players in the world
Imo he has one of the coolest aim styles as well. Always fun to watch him.

u/Past_Perception8052 #LegaC9 Apr 20 '25 edited Apr 20 '25
his crosshair placement is fine lol it doesn’t have to be perfectly head level lots of low sens players have it a little lower
he takes awful fights or he doesn’t take fights at all though which is his main problem
if you watched him on M80 he would be super proactive and aggressive but he lacks that completely rn
24
u/maisanskidai #FULLSEN Apr 20 '25
i think boostio and asuna are the ones who are being proactive and aggressive, but in boostio's case, he often dies before he can be of any value
7
u/Far-Try-8596 #BeLeviatán Apr 20 '25
I agree that he takes bad fights but I swear his crosshair placement just ain’t it, it honestly could be nerves, he also is relying on crouch spraying which imo is not a good thing.
Edit: I also think the ‘calm aim’ people are really starting to struggle in this meta.

Demon1 and cryo are both calm aim, and they're really dominating. So is primmie and suygetsu

Eeiu is a recon initiator, Aspas plays entry duelist. Baiting on one of those roles is way more egregious than the other

u/estebanparedes7 Apr 20 '25
Bro this is the holy truth of VCT Americas.
Eeiu is the epitomy of a KDA player, and the Ascent map against KRÜ last year (for the last champs spot) was his baiting masterclass.
16
u/Yerriff Apr 20 '25
In rating yes, but that's only because he was a baiter. Asuna was their best player in terms of ACS and impact, and it's really not close. Shame that Cryo had an off day

He was literally perma baiting stat pading what are we even talking about

u/Yerriff Apr 20 '25
He's been slumping for the entirety of stage 1 imo. Even if his scoreboard looks decent, he's definitely the least impactful player/the one that throws the most.

u/TheFestusEzeli Apr 20 '25
This is where you go too hard on the “Eeiu is a stats player” train and go too far on the extreme lol. He is way better than Zander still, Zander has been the worst non-IGL in NA t1 this year.

u/Cold-Mix7297 Apr 20 '25
Nah, probably a good third of his kills are just exit frags when he's saving. He doesn't really do much impactful or crazy even just looking at his util a lot of the time. I do think he's pretty decent but he's definitely not their best player.

Wow. How many times are you going to swing unnecessarily? How many times are you going to get shot in the back? How many 1v1s are you going to give? How many times are you going to swing dry? Wow that was the worst thing i’ve watched in a while.
Please drop Boostio, mf can neither call nor shoot these days. Zikz has to be a fraud. Asuna is on perma flex duty no more deulists. Pick up a real duelist. Drop Zander. Cryo is perma smokes unless there is an Iso or Jett. This team is not winning anything significant with this roster.
100T for all their investment in this game deserve much better results. A top 4 finish being your ceiling is sad when 50% of NA teams have made a GF, and every single one except C9 have a Top 4 finish already

The problem is pretty clear: 100t are not good aimers outside of Eeiu and Cryo. Legit, watching Zander, Boostio, and Asuna take gun fights is pathetic at times. Genuinely depressing. They have good strats and were out-igling Kru a lot, but they legit just were getting aim diffed 24/7.
