Aint no way they didnt go for derke lmfaooo
EMEA will be back next year winning it all and it wont be cus of fnatic
Heretics is still a strong standing team but, Vitality is now going to be:
Sayf
Trexx
Derke
Less
They just need an IGL now
It’s so over for everyone else, we back baby! 🥹

Azzelastia [#3]Memea will go another year trophyless
Well Heretics was consistently making finals and top4’s this year, im sure they will bag a trophy next year. If not vitality for sure will. We actually got 3 stacked rosters in EU now, TL is still unknown
eeeeh I think mada is great
They have Bonkar as a coach who has done incredibly well with developing younger players (whereas we dont really know how he stacks up vs t1 coaches when it comes to improving established players) so I much prefer this.
They have enough veterans on NRG that they can afford 2 rookies.
But ye Derke staying in EMEA is huge for the region and LA is EMEAs best friend for bringing all the talent to us ;3
Also IGL thing might be more of a challenge than you think. I havent really heard any rumors of t2 igls being tiraled, the t1 market doesnt have any top tier ones looking for a team rn, so Id expect they stay with Cender and try to keep developing him.
Imo gonna be a race against time to get ceNder to a super team level before the team breaks up.

Yeah I think they might just stick with ceNder, but ur right. EU doesnt have many tier1 IGL’s. But I think ceNder did a fine job IGL’ing the team tbh. They had some good wins against heretics which pretty much made top 2-4 at every LAN and they beat fnatic alot aswell so hes well experienced. I think its looking promising either way

Yup definitely had some good games. Also had some bad ones. Just consistency now (and being able to manage a team with so many [allegedly] strong personalities) so that we get more of the good ones.

Crypto_816 [#8]This Vitality team is insane bro.
Top 3 duelist itw - Derke
Top 3 duelist in EMEA - Sayf
Top 3 sova in EMEA - trexx
Top 3 sentinel of all time - Less
All they need is a good IGL (Enzo would be a good addition and would fit in well he can play fade and breach)
derke isn't top 3 itw

Its a completely different scene at T1 and if he makes internationals hes gotta play against so many insane teams so I am not a believer in this
Getting diffed by current C9 and TSM, gl against GENG and Heretics, SEN etc
nobody___100 [#10]derke isn't top 3 itw

Derke had higher rating than zekken at champs lmfao
Does bro even watch valorant or just dickride NA?

Then how did Narrate diff teams all year in T1 after being in T2 NA?

wah wah wah derke stats insane
does bro know that valorant is a 5v5 game
those 5 players i mentioned all have a higher impact than derke
there's a reason why they all placed better in the last year

Expect Aspas, everyone have had most 1 good year, while Derke has been doing this since 2021.

Mada shoulda gone to KOI but what's the point they're as dog as NRG as well
Congo1 [#22]Cender IS a good IGL
Nothing I saw last year gave me the impression he was a good IGL. More like heroics of Sayf and Trexx that saved the team.
bobwoblob [#23]Enzo is not good lol.
Agreed but does EMEA even have good IGL's. Only ones I can think of already have a team. Unless FNC let go of boaster, ANGE1 leave Navi or Boo leaves Herectics I dont really see who will IGL VIT. I would say Redgar but his calls havent been good the last year and he hasnt had much impact in the fragging side of it either
nobody___100 [#10]derke isn't top 3 itw

No, no they don't?
Cancan isn't better than derke
Jawgemo isn't better than derke
Texture isn't better than derke

But others are 1 time wonders and dont come near Derke and Aspas. Before Finals KK was mid.
unknown_trash [#28]Wait why did vitality drop cender???? I don't think they did.
They didnt, we are just speculating
ihatewestjett [#24]Mada shoulda gone to KOI but what's the point they're as dog as NRG as well
Real

That doesnt make mada n4rrate. Not everyone can do what he did. We will see tho in few months

KC made a gamble and it paid off just like most teams do while picking up tier 2 talent
