[@Ruuinx]

At this point NRG have adopted Babybay

[@CoryVincent]

NRG and Babybay go waaayy back to 2018 SF Shock

[@plutoniumfriedrice]

who keeps inviting this washed bum babybay tell him to go back to cod

[@zethhyyy7789]

The direction of this podcast is going great. It's becoming more carefree and getting more and more conversational. Kudos to Babybay and the boys and the NRG staff behind this. Great job to all of you! Manifesting a fantastic 2025 for NRG Valorant!

[@CoryVincent]

Thank you so much, that’s exactly what we aimed to do 🙏🏼

[@MoneylineMonkey]

bro is that vector from despicable me?

[@NRGRainZ]

I love how people take my joke and get more likes

[@MoneylineMonkey]

@@NRGRainZ Sorry if thats the case but I genuinely just saw and replied. I never saw your comment

[@NRGRainZ]

@@MoneylineMonkey im joking XD

[@phonemyatsan7982]

"og goon squad" 1 minute in is crazy

[@moscrech]

Aint no way fns rocking the dutch tracksuit. Ball knowledge goes insane

[@YHADaGOATmain]

WHEN! Nrg make champs, will you guys bring out shanks as team water boy, so when timeouts happen he'll walk around with a squirt water bottle to keep yall hydrated?

[@naternyt]

FNS lowkey spitting facts this video

[@JaimePerez-vi5db]

[@_DashingAdi_]

He always spits fax

[@Cryptic_Blitz96]

I cant lie, the NRG hoodie S0m is wearing is really growing on me. Fire design

[@DeepDividends]

[@Lumautis]

I am super hyped for the new season. We are going to have some awesome games

[@guwopzy]

24:41 “The greens not brazilian” NRG Ethan 2025 🇧🇷

[@Anonymous-gh6xf]

You guys gave Ardiis and Shanks 35 minutes 42 seconds worth of content.

[@jeenavbajracharya7311]

This video was fun to watch

[@danaeli]

Ethan's laugh on those "tip" jokes. LOL.

[@dracothebreako]

Will be there to cheer for NRG at the masters Toronto, might as well give me that merch…..

[@salty2609]

Love to see babybay still here

[@renzrx]

babybay is such a positive vibe guy

[@jamesm.3801]

33:40 that shock dart was actually shameless 😂 I had the exact same thought in the moment.

[@dubrrr5870]

Can you explain to me what has happened??

[@Nas0630]

All I want is a real NRG classic now. Looks fire. Literally.

[@samleo3291]

mics are cutting out sometimes especially FNS in 4:59

[@pikamon01]

He might hv cussed no?

[@mtmsammetal9124]

@@pikamon01 nah they are kinda far from their mics and the noise gate is a little on the strong side, just minor adjustments for the next podcast and they should be good

[@LazyVulgarian]

FNS wearing the Dutch football jacket, respect!

[@joshbreton8496]

I love these despite not playing the game anymore

[@RangoTango2007]

I love the little NRG pistol on the desk

[@ethernalinnocence9031]

"You cant fix, what Aint Broke. Now where's my Trucker Hat" Iykyk😂

[@K3n_R0y]

damn can't wait for the next episode! FNS the goat

[@byAegis]

my goat is finally in the podcast

[@gurjotkainth8148]

NRG got that naturally funny chemistry , W team.

[@whalesacks]

podcast on a press conference set is crazy

[@orangepeelpheel]

I always respect FNS and the all of the players a little more after one of these episodes. Just seeing the in-depth details and hearing their mentality and attitude towards competing. I love it all 🫶🏼

[@uncannyeraser]

lets shanks be the sixth man 🔥

[@iamPod]

Someone plz fix the gate on fenis's mic

[@CoryVincent]

I know man it’s killing me, we’ll fix it for next time

[@ainles]

I'm currently watching this with mad food poisoning myself and I thought it's just ironic as hell 😂

[@hinatashoyo3891]

Day 1 of asking NRG to make a video "NRG PROS vs NRG CONTENT CREATORS" with some handicap

[@Zachzu]

Shoutout to FNS for wearing our Dutch National Football Team jacket!

[@NEURAL_]

NRG will win everything this year. The vibes are just different.

[@cabovalo]

We NEED an hour back

[@mtxtun]

i remember that round ethan talked about vs geng on pistol, it was pure shameless like after they randomly had 3 people on a with a full setup to fight a lobby, shit was hilarious. also BUY THE BUNDLE (i just bought it so u guys' turn now)

[@3nish4]

I regret not buying the bundle last year wtf is this classic😭anyways rooting for yall

[@broncokun9331]

wheres the PRX one? TT im heartbroken how could FNS forget

[@CryBoyCry]

NRG trucker hat would be insane!!

[@Bartosclips]

FNS representing us with that retro jacket. W ball knowledge

[@qwxntmFPS]

og goon squad is a crazy intro

[@trykan3190]

The NRG classic is FIRE, actual aimbot

[@judeestrellado1428]

It's Shanks, who's surprised lmao

[@4somusic]

Forgot some teams on the classic tierlist

[@_Ghostlike_]

someone hit that noise gate WAYYY too hard

[@guragrawurh139]

00:50 unc did not just say "The OG goon squad" 😭😭😭😭

[@Parenegade]

100T skin is underrated af.

[@jarencruz8613]

just sign babybay as 6man for the vibes at this point. Shanks and Babybay is good for business

[@spacekap]

Damn, I just got a truck. All I need now is a hat.

[@Flcnt]

Need that bucket hat in my mc vids gang, Ethan looking dripped out in this video fr

[@Al_cappuccino19]

Fns truly look like an unc in that fit😂

[@judychop]

I like how whoever was running the tier chart just decided to do their own thing. "Heretics is S" *puts it in B. 😅

[@gahhram]

s0m and fns were fighting for the ramen spot not the trophy or prize money 💀

[@bubblestxt]

i freaking love s0m!

[@cherrv3964]

nrg win against c9 is my idea of a perfect friday

[@jacobmanchester]

Only thing better than an NRG classic is an NRG trucker hat....

[@jarsace]

the real question is did s0m bring his new pots and pans to LA

[@_Dumb_Answers]

small feedback: when you were doing the bundle tier list, it would have been nice to show the skin the entire time the guys are talking about it instead of just 5 seconds

[@slayworldalbania]

we need shanks to play one match

[@0nIy1]

The ramen shop affects FNS’s aim

[@architlanjile5807]

we definitely need longer podcasts!! but love the boys just hanging out talking shit

[@AndyLiang-hwaaSae]

damn im buying the bundle

[@Hweener]

Thoughts on Mooda's wintrading allegations?

[@jvd101]

WE LOVE BABYBAY

[@c00b]

i love s0m

[@maeganlee9117]

lets go NRG looking clean

[@princesslittlepiddles3928]

Classic Shanks move to miss the first day of work

[@ElijahMartinez-zq9ht]

When s0m retires after "winning something" will shanks take his spot?

[@robgronkowski432]

thats why they call him shanks!

[@howusechopstick454]

Bring Shanks in!

[@ktpengui101]

if nrg qualifies to bangkok can we PLS get an fns vector cosplay like officially bc this look is pretty close

[@arnevandycke1429]

Thank you guys for having me!

[@kaji0819]

lowkey I literally thought NRG one was the best when I saw it.

[@oooochir]

Masters trophy this year!? Let's see 👀👀

[@flow-k7w]

Babybay the goat

[@vrtuvlln7774]

Would fns prefer the current NRG or prime Optic team?

[@CrimsonFangTV]

Suggestion: leave the skins on the screen the whole time they’re reviewing. They talk a lot about the different aspects of the skins after removing the picture from the screen and I had to rewind a lot

[@rohancr8485]

no prx classic?

[@DBpotato]

Theres a lot of nice information in this video but yall gotta fix these mics

[@batlantern18]

Hey guys can you make the quality of the video up to 1440p at least pls.

[@guwopzy]

18:55 Nah bro, the old old 100T merch was literally blue white black hoodies with a white / black logo . It’s a call back to those days + to not be like SEN 😂

[@bl0ssum143]

Why did TH get put in B when they said S?

[@mktkazootie2792]

Bought the NRG bundle
