to match Laz, Dep, and SugarZero? Yuran is alright, but Hiroronn is obviously not good enough right now. He's underperformed every game.
Anyone who watches JP T2 knows that Japanese talent pool so much bigger compared to a few years ago. FL vs RC was deadass one of the most hype games in all of challengers.
The problem isn't Japan. It's ZETA. They are the GE of Japan, except their own people don't hate them. Imagine if most Indians were like "NT polvi!!!! you played some of the worst Valorant ever player but we'll get it next time ! ! ! !" instead of hating on the org.
