and pick up someone who can play every duelist. imo jawgemo or oxy would be insane picks to replace him. demon1 not being able to play raze or neon will be a blow to the team

i wouldn’t mind this but i still think demon1 is tier 1 level and would like to see him on a franchised team

NRG's mistake was benching demon1 in the first place lmao, you do not bench the best player in 2023
But IF we have to pick someone, the only proper replacement for him is Derke

If Derke can learn yoru and tenz can learn omen, demon1 can learn raze

Edit for clarification: they’re pro players. They can play literally any agent at a decently high level, it’s just can they feel comfortable consistently performing well on stage. Derke was able to learn how to play a much quicker but still pacy yoru compared to his regular Jett raze, and tenz was able to cool it down from his usual aggro dive playstyle onto a flexible yet still aggro omen. Demon1 can be a top raze player, it’s just he needs to work to be more comfortable on raze

what is that logic? It's almost as if Derke and tenz are different players than demon1?

That's just not how it works, every player is different
yay and something can't play raze after all this time
Are they bad? No, they just cannot play raze and demon1 is in that category

You're acting like Derke doesn't already know Yoru.

He had one of the highest stats at champs 2024 playing only Yoru

this is a cold ass take demon1 is a jett only/smokes flex with a smokes only player and a viper/senti player and if they pick up verno he also has two inti players on his team on top of that bros enitre carrer relies on s0m being the goat smokes and raze/doing a 180 with his raze gameplay or maybe a six man roster with a raze/neon player
system player in the worst possible system for him imaginable unless fns see the vision with s0m raze then he fits perfectly and they become the best NA team tbh and if fns shoots back top 3-4 contender

He can play Neon. His Iso is probably the best in the world and you still need Jett in the map pools. Also his Astra will be insane. S0m can easily play Raze.

How would they kick him if he's already on KOI?

Demon1 does deserve to be in tier 1 but he just doesn't feel right on NRG. The roles just aren't adding up. Oxy, Jawgemo or Derke as duelist passes the eye test.

yea bro after nrg and chet spent all that money on ethan and demon1 their gonna drop demon1 because of a bad year, like every other teams in league has had and kicking him will fix all of nrg problems as a team when its a team based game where everyone on the team has to peform not just one person pfft, braindead fucking idiots on this shit.

did you read the post or na? i’m not saying kick him because of his year, im saying kick him because of his agent pool. he is horrible on raze

anyone has the ability to learn any agent in this game just like ur favorite players, they didn't wake up one day and knew how to play the agents that there playing at a high level, whats stopping him from learning how to play raze in scrims in the off season. just like every player he just needs time like everybody else that plays the game professionally.

Only if they're repalcing him with a more flexible and equal/better caliber duelist, Derke and jawgemo are the only 2 that are potentially available that i'd say would fit. But he'll have a whole offseason to maybe learn new agents.
