Even if they make it TYLOO have got to be the weakest team in groups. They have some incredible players on paper but too many of them like to play more passively which makes their firepower suffer. In my eyes if they want to become a contender, a good first step would be to commit to either ICEKING or Luok1ng and then bring in a more consistent aimer.

Well, they did indeed win 2-0, so uh, great I guess.

Because there are few outstanding players at this stage, especially nice controllers or sentinels in China. Act2 follows act1 so tightly, for which it seems impossible for the new team to find competitive players in China. That's why it is difficult to find new teams. VCT CN needs at least 2 or 3 years to cultivate enough outstanding players to create diversity. RA is an exception because they win the contract of stew against DRX for which it quickly grow up to have the ability to fight against EDG. What's more, Tyloo and RA are the topest clubs of CSGO in China. So they have enough experience to run the fps club. Now many big company like Topsport and Lining try to invest more money on Valorant in China, which means more talented players will be excavated in China. But to be honest, in 2023, it is really hard to find some new team to threaten top6 in China.
