Pearl's Ethan's Yoru was arguably the best counter to EDG. After a slow start, EG gradually read EDG's strategy perfectly and outperformed EDG in set-pieces, response and AIM. Looking forward to the EG vs DRX rematch since Masters Tokyo
i personally think com with sova on pearl was a game changer. Skye and Fade is kinda overused rn and the open vision of drone together with sova ult to break kj's ult made such a difference.
EG would've 2-0'd EDG if they didn't put Demon1 on Astra last minute.. Ethan is super underrated and don't get enough praise.. This team is super unpredictable.
It isn't last minute, did you watch the press conference? He said he hates oping and boostio used to be a chamber player so they decided to swap roles because he would refuse to buy op in scrims. And he still diffed KK in the last two maps lol. It's good that they did it.Once they both get comfortable this comp will be pretty good
MIBR saved NA man, for real. That single knife kill by txozin on bang changed the course of NA Valorant. Imagine how embarassing tokyo would've been with 100T instead of EG
@@nithinsrivatsa4726 Bold of you to assume 100T would've even made Tokyo. It probably would be C9 substituted for EG just so C9 could shit the bed internationally instead of regionally
If we are being real chichoo is EDG most consistent player. He doesn’t whiff ever and he’s so smart. Could probably be better than nats soon ngl. And that’s his favorite player.
Dude the way boostio was like- aa demon sometimes doesn't like awping so I insisted that I could try it on chamber so we just did it. Bruh they were trolling on first map they were like completing boostios dreams of oping.
Yeah as Boostio said in the post-match interview, EG are just having fun, and considering the second-place curse brought most people's expectations for them this tournament down, seems they're playing with house money yet again
EG is probably going to beat DRX next after seeing how they got better of EDG in last 2 maps. Their real test would be against PRX (or FNC if they make their run through the lower).
I don’t think anything is “proven” over here. With NRG (second seed from NA with more international experience) losing twice against BLG (second seed with minimal to no international experience) on the biggest stage of the year. It’s more like, exciting matches for champions. Edit: Statistically speaking, when it comes to champions tourney, South America and EU has had more success than NA. Just an FYI.
@@RiotGamesINDIA wrong, you can see here what happens when both regions' best play: a complete stomp. BLG winning against NRG is more of an indication of how weak NRG is. Of course, eventually CN will catch up but first they need to learn it's more than just a gun game.
@@doge7080 I don’t think you understand what “wrong” and “stomp” means. Your reasoning of NRG being weak just because they lost while overlooking the fact that they have had a playoff run wins for over 671 days before losing to BLG is a live proof of how anything can happen. Than saying one region is better than the other. In that sense, South America and EU are far better than NA since they’ve made far more appearances in the champions finals compared to NA who choked out in the playoff stages for the last two years.
Also EG is one of the best teams in terms of roles played by each player . Only COM playes initiator. Rest all players can play any role . That is a real sign of Teamwork ❤
@@Lawthethrash That makes EG even better . For me EG and PRX are one of the top teams in terms of gameplay. DRX for comebacks and FNATIC for top mechanical shooting skills.
Don't they have to wear noise cancelling headphones with actual game audio earbuds underneath to prevent this sort of thing? Or an I thinking of it wrong?

19:06 that flash literally saved EG that round
They probably timed it, honestly some crazy coordination
Hope the original EG team core (or some semblance of it) will return in VCT 2025. Loved their team dynamic, and the 2023 final was so hype
That was one of the biggest jett diffs prolly in the history of valorant
I wonder if EG will go back to their old comp for Split or not because honestly, it could've been a 2-0 if EG ran their regular double duelist comp.

Who's here after EDG won the 2024 champs?
Reminder that Split was EDG’s map pick and they nearly lost it to a troll EG comp.
that does not justify getting 0-7ed. edg attacking was so good. in defending they just did unnecessary rotations and lost duels.
@@Tech69YT Split is EDGs best map and they barely won the map. Boostio is right. China sucks

They play with rank strats.
Even bilibili is below avg
Drx destroyed them

honestly what i saw in fanbase was most americans were supporting edg and most asian american were supporting eg . lol
Yeah 😂 even I am supporting eg
One of the best matches of the century.
Demon1 has now become my favorite player oat
Ethan is actually the goat, hes so consistent plus his role on initiator is too good plus his stunning performance on yoru
Look at kangkang jett KDA last game, He got stomp so hard.
Demon 1 >>>>Kang kang
When kj is almost every map, eg also counter it with always pick sova everytime.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: most teams have a hard carry star player, EG has 5.
Prx and fnatic also teams that having 5 man's carry each other tho
Boostio's KJ, Demon1's Jett, Ethan's flashes, Com's Sova ults and darts, and Jawgemo's agression with Raze that looks like Jingg.
first map pure luck ngl. demon1>>>>>kangkang
Eg just trolled first map
Kangkang better AWPer but Demon1 better player overall, I'd even argue that Smoggy is a better Jett than Kang2

Map 1 was close even though Demon1 was on smoker
EG took the 1st map loss way too seriously and after that everyone knows the story.
man woke up today and said id rather play astra than the op
