jackb2016 [#7]Mad Lions wins after going 3-2 in groups with a surprise win beating Shopify and The Guard in the Lower and Grand Finals respectively
this is for MSI btw not the VCL final for split 2^^
I feel like Infinity/9z has a chance on ascension, oddik/union looks clean so they may be in that also. Fusion is a contender, but any team from LAN is doomed to fail, Reta looks good for qualification also. There's a world where these compete against the top of NA, but seriosly i think Guard is gonna make it 80%. Also dont sleep on G2/DSG.

Last challengers they were average, while having 2 rosters that had some players that in my opinion are meh like deigara and puleule and hanling. Their addition of Tuli on raze/jett was great, mizu on the awp role went great, and since then they signed Mono/david who was a great player on jett but hes now on smokes, a role that in this meta now requires a cracked player for anchor. Dont know much of rubkkoide since he did not impress me on Pampas. Also the coach Romanilly has some good insight and coaching potential. They formed early into october so they might surprise. Teams like All Knights/Furious dont have that much time together, and have some weak links(rosters are not announced but i know them from leaks). Only competitors are gonna be MOX and Infinity specially since they got the best roster on paper with Fross from 9Z/SunXet who was by far his best player on both rosters, also the coach WKN is a rookie on coaching but i think he has a great mind for the role. VaiZ was an ex LEV/AUS who was a great Cypher and KJ who was hit by the chamber buff, and now he has a good chance to show his potential, alongside with the young cracked MatiS who had a great season on 6Karma. Finally Suther he has great aim but i dont know what role is he gonna play as he is an sentinel/duelist, who has both roles already fulfilled
zardinez [#13]As a massive guard fan, I don't think it'll all be smooth sailing and I think tex will still take some adjusting, but I believe in them to win it all at the end!
Tex really impressed me on Jett im ngl, his numbers may not be incredible but i think the way he was playing was really good, and his oping is still on the top level. Even if hes not fully adjusted, hes gonna be a really solid jett player this year.

I totally agree. I'm not questioning his individual performance, rather how long it'll take for him to mesh with the other 4 who've been playing together for over a year now and are superbly coordinated. It's not a function of skill, just time.
