i still personally feel like valorant is such a momentum heavy game, regardless of how poorly they were playing tactically in the first half, when they finally started gaining momentum losing that round (which completely stemmed from whiffing that kill) just destroyed all of it, for them to even make it 12-14 took SUPERHUMAN rounds from mada and s0m. C9 also would have eco'd if NRG won that round so what was 7-11 should have been 9-10. Hot take: but i honestly dont think it even goes OT if nrg wins that 7-10 round, what are your thoughts on this take?
Definitely possible and I agree it's momentum based, but I really think the core of team Valorant relies on winning the tactical game and executing your strategies well. You might be individually demoralized if you whiff or have a bad round, but your team as a whole feels lost if your tactics or strategies don't work. Strategy is the foundation of your team's identity and morale, and is something that all 5 players and coaches can contribute to.
13:55 the crazy thing is, when I watch this clip in slow motion, it literally looks like at least ONE bullet hit Xeppa, but ig the Valorant gods wanted to troll FNS that day 😭😭
@@mscd3768 well it's still really bad luck because seeing a Clove overheal actually getting value in a pro match is incredible rare, and FNS was one of the few victims of that lol.
"with how low the time was he just needs to shift walk up the right side and play slow for a few secs for the tap and peak and he would have the advantage due to the angles on right side so he would know easier if hes on or off, idk he played it weird" - tarik
It didn't matter because they ended up making the comeback and brought it to OT. From there on it's a new game. You can say vibes but at that point NRG had the momentum so his whiff ultimately didn't matter. One hell of a fucking whiif tho
Interesting question! My intuition would tell me you're right, and the next most important would probably be Arcade>A main = B main something like that, but I'd have to look into the data to be sure
One minute into the video watching NRG’s setup I was thinking why isnt the weakside playing retake? And this guy manages to yap about it for like 5 minutes talking pretty much about nothing
I don’t think a single whiff can be the deciding factor. NRG’s defeat was simply a show of their weak defense
ranked teammates see the kd and that's all they need to know in their head😂
I meannn fns whiffing sounds like a better title than NRG's weak defence costed them their game - click baitable etc
3/16 Fns 😭😭😭
Get back to practice buddy, stop commenting with Alt account 💀
Ask Niko
I think tejo honestly cooked all of nrgs prep for that c9 game
Also met those rare days where xeppa was a terminator
@@walangaccount8984rare is such an understatement
@@Jamspen Xeppa on clutch games: I sleep
Xeppa vs. FNS: REAL SHIT
It’s always interesting to see a team tactically abusing their own weaknesses.
Dude just apply as NRG’s analyst, your analysis are just too good. + I want NRG to win pls
im pretty sure he did at one point, he dropped a video that essentially was his application for them
@@dysflexxia8204 title of video?
@@dysflexxia8204that was for 100t and he did it for fun not for real
@@dysflexxia8204 BONKAR PLEASE
@@dysflexxia8204that was for 100t I think
Xeppaa's once-in-a-blue-moon performance is honestly so crazy after this, he straight-up plays like 1/4 of this performance💀
It's so funny to me that FNS has been around in val for like 5 years at this point and his aim has somehow gotten worse lol i love that guy
Truly unc status
0:33 my glorious dementia patient
as always love the analysis

the fact that fns knew v1c also has ult thats why he shot omen is crazy

nah its cuz xeppaa's freaking overheal T-T

I think regardless he deserves respect. Pretty sure that he is aware of everything. Yet stays confident and locked in. As a leader should.
This pujan disrespect in the thumbnail shall not be tolerated. lol
bro is definately the biggest FNS fan
the first pistol round strat is like NRG simply forget that there is other ways to enter the site other than tower lol
goat video
Someone wants a job as coach for nrg 😂
I think tejo and the map fracture lotus which they had not prepared for affected them
If one whiff would be considered as the reason a team lost a game, that team probably doesn't deserve the win anyway.
Another amazing video. Will you break down the new EG fracture?

I’ve been wondering,, what are the stats for fracture on what lanes pros favour? It /feels/ like dish is rarely pushed but idk for sure 🤔

No but it did on Fracture vs LOUD in LOCK//IN Sao Paolo
Platoon the GOAT
Could you break down if EG truly is the best at fracture or not? and why?
It's a team game.
i don't man but fns whiffs are actually hilarious lol like he just whiffs the entire clip of bullets lol
W Fenis
Why do u love NRG so much? Is it because of OpTc?
Fan of FNS's calling so it's always fun for me to break down their games!
Yes
disliking this cuz poochans the goat
you fanboys man i swear , fns is a bot but i love it , his whiffs are entertaining so im all there for it hahaha
I mean he defended him more than 99% of people
@@uresfffff222 im joking its not that deep

🤣🤣🤣
Short answer: Yes
In turn, he clutched round 24. It was a whiff, happens to all of us
Yes
