Who's excited for the new fnatic roster??
Derke and alfa were already 2 incredible players on the same team. But now with Leo and chronicle??
Damnnn.
Can't wait to see them all together playing!
What are you looking forward to see?
dexter000111 [#10]Ngl Fnatic and Liquid look insane on paper
And we already know Navi are insane
Seems to me EU is about to dominate the year
goofy ahh jinx
Kepin [#14]definitely the best version of fnatic. if they dont win anything next year, i lost words.
Getting diffed by Navi so no domestic titles
Cant win Internationally with Boaster
Sorry for your words brother, seems theyre already lost
babysasuke [#15]Getting diffed by Navi so no domestic titles

Boaster op>>>>>> faze
angelmrm [#16]Boaster op>>>>>> faze
The only position Boaster could slot in for FaZe is the bathroom attendant at the Starbucks they played LCQ from

well u shut me down so fast. i dont what to say anymore.
maybe we can consider any grand final next year is a success for fnatic. kekw

Possible if they dont get diffed by lulquid regionally
no shot internationally
Expecting them out before quarters in Sao Paulo

Lol
nutab1e [#11]goofy ahh jinx
I'm dead serious
I don't even need to explain why Navi are insane
And each player on Fnatic and Liquid is insane individually. So yes they do look good on paper
The only questionable part I see is boaster. Not saying he's bad or anything, just haven't seen anything from him in the past year that yells top 3 international IGL

You cant be "dead serious"
Fnatic and Liquid are flopping 100%
they do look good on paper
They picked up m3c players, which have not been strong in over a year. The only real pickup either of these teams made was Leo.
Going to get 2 teams of randoms overtaking them for 2-3rd trust
The only questionable part I see is boaster's IGLing.
Yeah he sucks lmfao, they would have needed to sign the 4 best players in their roles around Boaster to carry him to even have a hope of being competitive. Instead they have mid-tier and washed-tier

M3C not making LAN =/= M3C players being bad
nAts is still a top 1-2 sentinel in EMEA and Redgar is still a top 1-2 IGL in EMEA

nAts is still a top 1-2 sentinel in EMEA and Redgar is still a top 1-2 IGL in EMEA
yeah youre coping
Redgar part is right, but top 1-2 IGL in an IGL-less region isnt much of a feat. Top IGL in EMEA is middle aged.

Just out of curiosity
Where would you put nAts in the global sentinels ranking and where would you put Redgar in the global IGLs ranking?
WinterZ [#29]Just out of curiosity

Not doing the sentinel one because we realistically haven't seen a Sentinel played in almost a year, players like dapr were always better than nAts. nAts has a massively inflated percpetion based on lurking around maps and cleaning up free kills, once that got exposed he was never the same powerhouse
Redgar maybe top 20 IGL in the world? Cleared by:

WinterZ [#33]Can you elaborate a lil bit for me regarding Laz, dephh, ShahZam, hazed, POISED and Vanity?
Zeta counterstatted to LBF against teams ranked higher with arguably more firepower (TL, PRX, DRX)
Dephh has IGL top 3 team XSET for (i believe) the entirety of the rosters, knows how to work with his coach, and can bounceback from losses and take lessons from every match to comeback stronger (obvious improvement thoughtout NA Challengers to disappointing Masters run to really respectable Champions performance)
ShahZam ran the meta for the first year of Valorant without a coach, only fell off because it took them too long to hire one, they hired someone with no experience, and they couldnt work together to figure it out. If they had a Chet or a Sykko I dont think SEN would have seen the falloff that they did (also some credit to his shitty victim attitude though)
hazed made that dogshit TSM roster look like an international contender before it blew up, gets dropped, goes to NRG and makes them a title contender as well with all new players
POISED took Dicey (which 100T dropped because he was a "Jett one trick") and got this roster from T2 to one of the best teams in NA while working around his players strengths
Vanity took 2 separate rosters to LAN, and specifically with C9 made sure that they were never out until the map was over. His stratbook doesnt run out and he keeps the team coordinated for the whole map without even having a hard carry on either roster.
Redgar: "Alright guys, play this round slow and wait for the enemy to take space, hope they dont check nAts and we can get a free numbers advantage"

Interesting analysisβ¦
Iβm not entirely sold on POISED, ShahZam Laz, dephh or hazed seeing as poised and hazed have never made LAN, Lazβs ZETA only made 1 good run then fell off hard,I donβt think your ranking on XSET is very accurate either seeing as their best achievement is 6th and that dephh is only IGL on attacking side, and I felt like outside of LCQ, ShahZamβs IGLing was pretty 1 dimensional.

"making LAN" from NA is not the same as other regions
NA is an overall stronger region. EMEA/APAC outside of top 1 from each could lose to any T1 NA team depending on the day. Hazed and POISED not making LAN is not a skill or team issue, its a seed issue.
XSET has been a top NA team since signing cryo and have been consistently getting better. They also beat Optic in NA finals, beat Fnatic at Champions, and should have beat FPX if they didnt get turret bugged. Dont undersell their performance to fit your narrative.

Seems to me EU is about to dominate the year
Fnatic just need to replace b0tster with an actual igl and it they will be fine, unfortunately it won't happen anytime soon
Shownu [#35]Like I said we are winning Champs
Fnatic can win champs only if they get zeddy instead of botster, or if boaster commits his time to nats aim routine and stops shooting like immortal 2 player.
babysasuke [#28]yeah youre coping
Redgar part is right, but top 1-2 IGL in an IGL-less region isnt much of a feat. Top IGL in EMEA is middle aged.
He's not coping, Gambit played quals with 60-70 ping from home when they lost org support, it would have been different from Gambit bootcamp where they have 20 ping, individually they are all still quite good and it shows on eu ranked leaderboards

They are all (except redgar who's pretty mid mechanically but he has his moments sometimes, kinda like ange1)10x better than any na player aim-wise, and you know it. You legit said that nats is worse than fucking dapr out of all players which is hilarious af since dapr has never dropped 30 in his entire career, no anchor player in NA can replicate performances like nats astra on ascent vs oglu
