I would not trust this guy 100% but to me this seems likely

The roster then would be:
- musashi
- ALIVE
- monsteerr
- baddyG
- Br0die
finally baddyG getting picked up
What do you think?

homeworkW [#11]looks solid, havent seen much of alive, depends on if he does well or not as the entry
Alive is not good enough for tier 1 yet, but he is definitely top 10 duelists in tier 2 with players like kamo, miniboo, purpo, bisk, 7ssk7, lauress and a couple more
furyufbutyounger [#13]musashi and baddyg are great pickups
If you add Monster that is an almost tier 1 core
LouBag [#15]Everyone shits on TSM and G2 but raves about this team.
Then I think. Could this team beat TSM or G2?
nope

You can't ask G2 and TSM the same you ask Acend. It's completely different cases, once franchising was anounced, ascend was automatically a tier 2 org with no chance of making it.
That being said I do like this roster better than TSM's, and I have to see oxy, penny and Brodie but if G2 or TSM are better than this (which I doubt) it's not by a lot

ALIVE is the by far the best duelist in tier 2 and saying he is not good enough for tier 1 is just a joke.
Darkhorse [#18]ALIVE is the by far the best duelist in tier 2 and saying he is not good enough for tier 1 is just a joke.
Alive could maybe fit in some lower board vct teams, I wouldn't disagree with that. The best tier 2 duelist? No

i would say jugi is better. masic probably aswell

I wont disagree with you also, its your opinion and I respect that, I follow him for a long time and he is just different. I dont think comparing him to tier 2 players is fair.

Fair enough, it's really hard to affirm who is better between players that don't regularly play against each other. I just named a lot of players cause I just can't rank em in order. For example I can't find any argument to affirm Alive is better than, jugi, purpo, lauress, miniboo, ssk yk, which doesn't make him worse, but not better either

that's fair I also think the players you mentioned are really good especially jugi and ssk but I think they need to prove them self a bit more because in tier 1 they weren't impressive at all and in tier 2 they are not consistent and they are playing against bad teams.
I think Consistency is the biggest problem for tier 2 players.

Because these players don't have much name value. That has always been the difference maker with NA vs EMEA. Obviously NA is more stacked on paper because many ex VCT players had to downgrade to tier 2 and they don't have stupid region locks, but the difference in level isn't going to be that massive.
Guy like Musashi likely doesn't ring many belts for someone who didn't follow EMEA, but he was doing just fine in weak team in EMEA VCT just where some players from TSM, G2 etc were doing in NA. And I rate Monsteerr over guys like Dapr or Wippie etc while most non-EMEA followers don't even know who he is or how good he is.
NA just gets carried by clout factor. Many of these VCT players who now have to play in tier 2 weren't that amazing and aren't much better than tier 2 talent in region like EMEA. This Acend could definitely beat TSM or G2 and I would even favor them even tho its hard to say for now.
Targu1n [#29]Isnt br0dy activly playing with a team atm trying to get into polaris?
Rough for his team if true since they at most had a month to try and get a new igl.
you mean the team with l1nk. luzuh and more? yeah its a f/a team and seems fair to go to a org since hes getting payed after all any on tier 2 f/a would understand imo.

Yeah I hope they have checked well because I’ve heard something like if you play the quals for one of the leagues you can’t really switch to a new one until next split I think
