How can NA win anything? Its a 1 team region rn

The 2 best players, Yay and Marved aren't on teams. The only good IGL is FNS and he's perma botfrag (although he's been improving aim wise props to him). The other "proven" IGL options are Vanity (teamless and doesn't have that dawg in him), Dephh (actual paycheck stealer), Stellar (B+ only I think). So your only hope is NRG, but Victor is also super inconsistent, and S0M is still really unproven. Crashies, while being super reliable and S tier overall, isn't that dude that can hard carry usually. 2 out of 5 NA teams are just hopeless, C9 bc they're broke and EG bc they're stupid as fuck and have 10 mid players.

I feel like NA also lacks these hyperflexible players that Fnatic and Navi have that make their team comps super tight knit and redundant in a good way. Navi can make any comp work cuz everyone on that team is super flexible and a beast, same with Fnatic, especially Chronicle and Leo. Teams like that are really resilient to meta changes, unlike all the teams that are in shambles after the Chamber nerf. The only NA players with that flexibility are Ardiis, Trent (actually god tier but choked on LAN, hope he gets past that), Xeppa and Leaf (super wasted talent) and Zekken (doesn't have dawg in him, choked on LAN). But unlike Fnatic and Navi, these guys aren't consolidated on one team.

Upgrades:
100T: Put cryo on perma jett on most maps, make him learn a new agent so Asuna can be on Raze, Get back Sgares or someone similar because Stellar needs help; still will only be A tier team, not S though
C9: no money, plz trade Xeppa and Leaf to good teams
EG: another wasted spot team
Sentinels: actually have hope if they drop Dephh, let Sacy IGL, move Pancada to sentinels like he wants to anyway, Marved on smokes. That team has the highest ceiling with the most firepower.
NRG: this team is the best constructed, but lacks firepower. You gotta replace Victor with Trent
Ascension winner: M80 or the Guard, these teams are so well constructed role wise especially M80, I think they can be better than 100T with time

i mean NRG are a very flexible roster no?

s0m : controller/duelist/sage
ardiis : duelist/kayo & sova/sage & killjoy
fns : sentinel/viper/breach & kayo
victor : duelist/flash initiator/killjoy
crashies : initiator/cypher/killjoy

& i wouldn’t count out a few teams just yet, SEN have a high ceiling ( even with dephh :| ) with their roster, 100T i feel dont live up to the hype they were given but they should do a playstyle similar to LOUD that allows cryo to basically be a one-trick jett. C9 i have lost hope, i honestly don’t think the collegiate players will perform anywhere near the T1 level but we will have to see. EG is alright, they need ethan to always be performing though, otherwise the game is lost

Factual post let Marved cook on SEN, c0 is hopeless, eg is mid, 1 thieves lost 90% of their potential after seangares left, NRG only NA hope

NA gotta wait for 2024 as they have either m80 or guard by then, then theyre finally not a 1 team region anymore

import my 5 stack, we will get min top 3 in americas

What EU does that NA should learn from is agent preferences.
For example, NAVI lets Cned play Jett almost everywhere, while 100T forces Cryo on omen and Zekken on breach (who both look hella unconfortable)
They should build around the player's strengths and be more flexible with team comps

NRG is by necessity yeah but they aren't cracked on their alt agents yet, maybe they'll get better w time. 100t on paper is S tier, but they were so mid in Lockin, i hope asuna on raze fixes all their problems.

they need sinatraa

-trent is a hard initiator, he's not as capable an entry fragger as is required for Victor's role. Furthermore, he primarily mains sova which puts him in conflict with crashies.

-Making Sacy IGL is a stupid idea. dephh, while infuriatingly bad at times, is necessary on SEN. While it's not much to brag about, he's the third best IGL in NA (though the distance between 2nd and 3rd place is huge)
