im genuinely so suprised no franchised teams picked up monster, young player who's super valuable with the new sentinel changes

Don't be so surprised. Acend are no sellers, they put a crazy buyout on him and even tho some teams tried to get him they were not willing to negotiate, same happened with starxo, they would rather let the contract run out by January first than negotiating with KOI

why would you rather let the contract run out than negotiate and get at least a bit of money??

That's what coherent people would have thought, but I guess Acend has a very aggressive style of negotiating. Been confirmed by Ibai that he has tried everything, even offered to partner up for a promo too and everything but they were just not willing to negotiate at all

I can see players like Roxie, Vakk, Monsteer, Dreamas and BaddyG be good options

Acend can easily compete with that if they wanted tho, not a big issue

this is very normal
but they are definitely not better than franchise teams in terms of roster quality

FUT beat Vitality even with this average roster

This ''Acend'' roster is worse than ex-Vitality

u: man is not playing in tier 1 = he is bad
from where you think new talents are coming ?
you are turkish right? imagine fnatic not picking up alfajer because he is the guy who: "got 30 kills against t4 teams"

That was just a random ass example, just first what came to my mind. I mean maybe tomaszy is not franchised level player we dont know, but still enough to beat fut and bbl trust me. Fut cant even win divinity in a bo3 game like wtf. The rest of the team are proven players who can go huge with right teammates you cant even argue with that

They have Monsteerr so that is good piece to build around especially with sentinel changes even though I feel bad for him because he def deserved a franchising spot. But I could imagine them being decent spender in EMEA tier 2 so they could build decent roster I think. Just not sure how attractive the org is for players seeing how they seem to ask big buyouts, but for players who know they likely won't get picked by tier 1 orgs anytime soon it might be good option.

they already have monster, probably the biggest player who missed franchising especially with kj cypher meta coming back. adding to this their previous infrastructure and lesser big orgs in emea ascension, they have to be the biggest contender for the title
