-Derrek
+BcJ
+SyykoNT as Assistant Coach
Thoughts?
teams at lcq 2022 were the top teams in the region at the time. That quite literally WAS the tier 1 at the time bcoz franchise didn't exist.
Plus the whole team has done poorly this year, 1 player can't be deemed responsible for it all. Heck they could have replaced derrek with Leo and they'd still have lost. So even though derrek wasn't in peak form, he wasn't the reason for 100T's bad performance. It's much deeper than individual players. It's a structure issue. Look at sentinels they had the best players at every single role but still fell hard. So it's not about the individuals
None honestly. The individual performances do not matter at all in my eyes. In my eyes the problem with 100T was that they were trying too hard to cook up new stuff on their own instead of just playing the meta, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it's so hard to make something new work. They already had a weak map pool but instead of using offtime to bolster the existing meta they decide to go for things like asuna on yoru instead of raze, cryo on raze instead of jett, the gekko tech, the cryo omen, the omen-harbor comps, blah blah blah so much more
And secondly they were trying to force coordination they didn't have, which led to every player losing confidence. You can see it in their gameplay everyone was just scared to take fights.
I'd just make sure Mikes has the best help he can possibly get with an assistant coach and an analyst and just give them more time in the oven.
