Jawgemo is not just a Raze/Smokes flex.
He’s excels as a hard-entry like Aspas and Zekken and it doesn’t quite make sense to swap him with Demon1 on certain maps since the NRG system isn’t like old EG’s.
I also think swapping roles between 3 players to fill recon on certain maps is way too messy. It’s better for NRG to pick up a dedicated Recon player like Verno/N4rrate and shift s0m into the EG Jawgemo role — shuffling with Demon1 depending on the map.
demon1 won't ever be an entry, but having demon1 on jett on some maps is a necessity. for example, ascent: putting jawgemo as jett instead of demon1 is stupid. it should be demon1 jett, ethan kayo, s0m sova, jawg omen, fns killjoy.
for recon, fns has already played fade, ethan can play gekko well as well as skye if she returns to meta, and s0m is the only one who has to adapt - which he has shown he can do, 5 month off season learning sova should be easy.
also, ethan and demon1 have synergy with jawgemo, and fns and s0m have synergy with ethan. adding a new guy would also require new synergy building.
