100T not making any changes

There really isnt anything bad about the roster, they are all good players and they have so much potential. They also have really good chemistry and their roster is young, so with more experience, they could potentially become even stronger than before. Not to mention they also need a 6th and if they grab the right 6th, they could become contender for being an strong team (both international and in the America league).
AintMe [#5]I doubt 100T stays the same, George Geddes gave them an 8/10 on an excitement scale about their moves
he also gave Stellar, bang and will around 7-8 so I'm expecting changes for sure
hanafuji [#7]I remember when people were meming 100T for always making changes to their roster, and now they're doing the opposite lol
True
I would be surprised if they didn't make changes just with all the available talent, but idk if it's a terrible decision. They seemed strong in NA and it wasn't the worst showing at Champs. Losing to DRX and Fnatic, both well-established strong teams isn't a bad showing. Definitely have potential to grow with experience and if the players all get along, that chemistry continuing to grow could help more than making marginal upgrades.

Now that memes goes to Fnatic

the 6th player will not make or break a squad. No big name player wants to be the non playing 6th sub
AcePro [#14]Keep Derek and Asuna and sign 4 more
I would like to see bang stay along with Asuna derrek cause he is a monster and always puts on a great showing
Mbappe [#13]the 6th player will not make or break a squad. No big name player wants to be the non playing 6th sub
Not saying they will, just saying that if team use sub to improve their comp or add to variety to the way they play certain map, it could be cool to see (rather than just using it as a sub for how they play at least imo).
Mapusaurus [#20]tarik massive L, 'they should've made playoffs' as if, 100t mainly looked good due to whitenoise advantage
they have whitenoise in isolation too y'know, otherwise pros would have complained a long time ago
MourninggStarr [#21]they have whitenoise in isolation too y'know, otherwise pros would have complained a long time ago
no, common cuba L
a1sle [#6]he also gave Stellar, bang and will around 7-8 so I'm expecting changes for sure
He gave 100t an 8 and Will a 7, but I don't remember any mention of bang and stellar. I still have a screenshot of his whiteboard.
hanafuji [#7]I remember when people were meming 100T for always making changes to their roster, and now they're doing the opposite lol
The difference is the top 2 teams released all players, and TGRD which was almost the 3rd place team. Too many top players released to not make any changes.
idkmate99 [#24]0Head Take. If (Michael Jordan, Ronaldo, Messi, etc.) becomes a free agent, you try and pick them up. They will make your team better.
it's not a take, it's inference based on evidence.
1juno [#25]I feel nadeshot is just building up a shock factor for when a big signing is revealed. I feel like 100T will sign 1 big player to replace will and that’s it.
true i guess technically he said "we have a great, young core" implies they are gonna stick with a core but might chance 1-2 players
idkmate99 [#27]He gave 100t an 8 and Will a 7, but I don't remember any mention of bang and stellar. I still have a screenshot of his whiteboard.
He apparently said that he can't talk about stellar cause if he does he lose his job/get in trouble. Also for bang, it's more of no one knowing if he will stay or not.
MourninggStarr [#29]it's not a take, it's inference based on evidence.
Evidence? That's ignorance. A CEO not giving any face to roster leaks is not evidence. Historically the same thing has been said and then roster changes were made. It's definitely more likely a change of some sort is made, and a CEO would be dumb not to make changes when star players are up for grabs.
solsolid [#26]franchise will make the scene to higher lvl with all the superteam that'd be formed they said.
won't happen since so many orgs will play safe like this
Personally I feel like making a NA super team has big risk in comparison with just replacing some of you team and keep its strong core of players
Brain_Needle482 [#31]He apparently said that he can't talk about stellar cause if he does he lose his job/get in trouble. Also for bang, it's more of no one knowing if he will stay or not.
Ahhh ok, thanks. I know bang's case is interesting cause he's technically still on a loan, but I'd assume TSM want to cash in now. I'm surprised he can't say anything about Stellar, but that must mean he has heard something big and can't even hint at it or he'll get in trouble.
Mapusaurus [#23]no, common cuba L
They actually did, watch the 100T doc on champs the first thing Will notices when he puts on his headphones in his setup in the hotel is the white noise
FightWasTaken [#3]changing rosters all the time isnt a good idea imo, better to stick to a decent roster and work on it so you can become among the best
Amogus?
BoDork [#2]I like this, give the young roster more time and they'll definitely be contenders for the top. There is still so much potential in this roster.
Potential but they will be destroyed if they take too long reaching it

Bruh stellar not near any top IGL
RickyIndian [#41]shahzam, vanity, dephh, and valyn
stellar quite literally beat most of those ppl 💀
RickyIndian [#41]shahzam, vanity, dephh, and valyn
No way this man think shazham is better than stellar. Also valyn won't work if bang is in the roster. Vanity won't work since he is probably going to stay in c9. And depth he pretty good, but again stellar is probably better for chemistry.

i don't think shahzam is better than stellar
i know he is
nutab1e [#42]stellar quite literally beat most of those ppl 💀
Lil bro also thought he could sneak in shazham 💀💀
RickyIndian [#48]i don't think shahzam is better than stellar
i know he is
Lil bro is fr on that hard copium💀💀
Brain_Needle482 [#50]Lil bro is fr on that hard copium💀💀
that SEN copium is the strongest one in the market, only thing that comes remotely close is the 100T copium
TechnoCampus [#15]I would like to see bang stay along with Asuna derrek cause he is a monster and always puts on a great showing
Looks like they're keeping their roster. Just adding Cryo for their 6th.

I don’t have a source but 100T straight out bought Bangs contract which NadeShot said
AcePro [#57]It's all over Twitter.
he's not a 6th bro, he's gonna be in the main team it's just a matter of for who (99% for will)

shahzam IS better than stellar, hate narratives cannot change facts

cryo 5th and will 6th makes more sense
jawn [#59]shahzam IS better than stellar, hate narratives cannot change facts
Sorry to say but facts don't agree with you
Brain_Needle482 [#61]Sorry to say but facts don't agree with you
stellar doesn't have a trophy nor anywhere near the IGL ability or the mechanical skill/game sense, what kind of facts are we talking about here?
parasite [#39]Bruh stellar not near any top IGL
hes young, but the team defintely has chemistry and insane potential. even will weve seen what he can do he just needs some time
MourninggStarr [#60]cryo 5th and will 6th makes more sense
i meant 6th member but he's defo going to see a lot of action
idkmate99 [#24]0Head Take. If (Michael Jordan, Ronaldo, Messi, etc.) becomes a free agent, you try and pick them up. They will make your team better.
Ronaldo is on man u and they're still shit

One international trophy at the start of valorant as an esport doesn't justify calling shahzam a extremely good igl, since the game was still new and still growing and the way sentinels fell over the year proves this. The facts show that Sentinel fell off and that they did make a good toward the end of the year to improve and become better. The facts also show that stellar along with 100t was able to consistently perform at a high level with enough time and they were able to make it to champion with other strong teams like optic and xset. This proves that stellar is a good igl and possibly a better one than shazam since I'm pretty sure that you at least need great/good igl to even make it to an even like champion. Just because you aren't looking at the facts doesn't mean they are not there.

have you applied the context of the roster/coaching woes they've had since challengers 1? or is that not good enough for your dumbass narrative
jawn [#68]have you applied the context of the roster/coaching woes they've had since challengers 1? or is that not good enough for your dumbass narrative
I could understand what you mean, maybe my assessment of why Sentinel fell off could be flawed, but even if this assessment is incorrect, the proof that 100 thieves were able to go in champions with stellar as an igl should be evidence enough that he is a good igl, not to mention that 100 thieves did beat sentinel to get there. Once again, I don't have a dumbass narrative, I only provide analysis on what I see and why I think stellar is potentially a better igl than stellar. Also I dont know why you think I have narratives (especially hate ones), but I based everything on what I see (in short: stats and performance) and it is with this that I form my opinion on.

also dont let the people with hate narrative blind you to the truth :)

what did stellar do before getting picked up on the sean gares led 100T? that's all you need to check to discern their quality as players. Once shahzam actually got proper backing and a month long bootcamp they rivaled 100T and gave them their hardest series in the LCQ, it's pretty obvious that the dude is just purely better

Alright Im just going to say that my opinion is stellar is better than shahzam and you have the right to disagree since apparently after all I said you still believe the opposite and their is no changing your opinion

also just saying, but people can improve, just because someone hasn't produced some amazing result in the past doesn't mean they aren't good in the present/future. 100t prove this by turning some players not a lot of people thought were good and made them a strong team, and stellar is no exception. (Some people consider Will a tier 2 player yet when he was on the big stage, he was a lan animal and producing great stats.) Everyone has potential.

under a great system yeah, every t2 player is amazing and has the potential to pop off, i'm not saying stellar isn't good, he's just isn't on shahzams level ,he hasn't achieved even half of the things shahzam has, one tournament run is not better than multiple ones
