Unless ethan steps up, and victor becomes consistent at fragging, this roster severely lacks firepower. I would love to get on victor as duelist hype train but he’s always inconsistent. 2023 NRG had the same problem, not enough firepower.

They need some youth and some aimers. Think it’s a mistake to bench Demon1 after 1 split

The problem is his scenario is unique, but we need another player with demon1 level firepower
s0m brings firepower, ethan is proven to step up quite consistently but vic and crashies are a double edged sword
ethan at his best was a top level support player, he didn’t take over games, same for victor he was a great entry but rarely the carry
crashies had his moments but he would mainly have consistent high impact rather than being a star performer
in optic yay and marved were the ppl that would bang out big numbers for the team, now that combined duty is on s0m. kinda sus
if s0m has a shit performance do you think the rest of the team can pull through against a top team? i don’t

Thats exactly my problem, vic does step up but u don’t know when that’s gonna happen, same with crashies, ethan is a great support but in terms of raw firepower, I’m just not sure
dort [#8]bros just yapping, nrg firepower is fine
least delusional nrg fan

Agreed, my only worry is consistency
Onais [#9]Thats exactly my problem, vic does step up but u don’t know when that’s gonna happen, same with crashies, ethan is a great support but in terms of raw firepower, I’m just not sure
Ya my last line is the point. s0m will have bad games, everyone does, so who the fuck is gonna drop the bomb when that happens lol
Look at geng for example, when texture is sucking meteor and karon are able to drop 30 just like that
Onais [#11]Bro we just replaced demon1, the best player of 2023 with FNS, while it helps with the calling issue, its still a big firepower downgrade. s0m is definitely an upgrade as he’s more consistent but he isn’t that much better.
firepower isnt as important as you think. SEN managed to win a tournament with the likes of zellshits and sacy on their team.
i also think s0m is a way better upgrade over marved. ice man just aint the same no more
I feel like people always overlook Ethan. If you actually watch his gameplay, his firepower is actually some of the best i've seen in North America that isn't duelist. But I know that s0m ethan and vic/crashies will def have enoguh fire
dort [#15]firepower isnt as important as you think. SEN managed to win a tournament with the likes of zellshits and sacy on their team.

johnqt is literally one of the strongest fragging igls itw, that’s why sen can get away with having zellsis and sacy
i have no problems with fenis but having him means the rest needs to be EVEN stronger than the competition
everyone complained about firepower with 2023 nrg too but they still did very well because of fns. dont underestimate the power of poolchan's brain.

fns is an exception to the rule. otherwise, explain how optic won a tournament with a 4v5? and how nrg stayed consistent in 2023 after optic core losing yay, their biggest fragger (we dont talk about BLG moment...)
SEN during 2023 lcq had the strongest firepower out of any team and yet they didn't qualify to anything.
unironically I think they should move s0m over to duelist (or at least jett) 🗿victor's duelist has looked good but I feel like he's usually better on more supportive characters like kayo or killjoy. I think he'd do just fine on smokes (or they can have ethan on smokes and victor flex for the maps s0m plays jett on)
I mean I kinda called it. 2025 NRG drop victor, crashies and chet, get demon1 back, pickup jawgemo and potter and we may have a champs winning team.
