Apparently Giantx have been trialing cNed a lot for the duelist role and purpo would move to flex
Call me biased all you want, signing cNed over Tomaszy in 2025 to have him play Raze/Neon, would somehow be the biggest troll this offseason by far

We haven't seen Tomaszy on duelist in a while, he has tried out with half the league, if he doesn't get picked up there might be a reason

That being said I don't really like cned

im not saying Tomaszy should be on duelist, im saying signing a guy that looks garbage on Raze and Neon, the 2 Meta duelists, is idiotic
Signing Tomaszy for smokes and purpo stays on duelist makes much more sense

I agree for the most part, but I think if someone can make cned work it might be GX because of their flexibility. I would rather have tomaszy but I don't think is that insane

If cNed cannot learn Killjoy/Cypher/Gekko ASAP, he will not survive the meta any longer.

cNed hasn't missed champs since his Acend times, let's be serious too, you acting like he's a bot to something. I don't like him, I think he conditions your comps too much, but he is still very much a top tier Jett

And I do think purpo is better than tomaszy both on duelist and off duelist, I don't think you remember how bad Tomaszy's last split was

All that being said Purpo and Tomaszy would be my preferred option, yes

Tomaszy was playing for the first time the hardest role to adapt to, while simultaneously getting baited like crazy....thats why people that saw the games, rate him highly

He was playing sentinel brother, that might be the easiest role to transition to wdym, duelists transition to sentinel all the fucking time

And I still rate him well, just 1 bad split. I'm just saying that is something you def need to consider

the only 2 players to transition from duelist to sentinel seamlessly were Leaf and Meteor. Tex only looked great the last 2 events of the year before that, even Aspas mom was beefing with him. Duelist to smokes is much easier

Bro name me 3 duelists that have transitioned to smokes

Duelist to sentinel happens all the time, some do better than others but, just in EMEA tier 1 of the top of my head I can think of hiro, runner, fitinho, nukkye, wolfen etc. Almost every time a duelist is signed and doesn't have enough firepower he goes straight to sentinel

I disagree, I think tomaszy start of the season, kick off, Madrid and Split 1 is the best he has ever played

And yeah well, I’m not sure, that would have to be worked out because it’s several roles. I’m just saying purpo is the better duelist in my opinion

sure but having purp0 and getting other flex its a waste at this point of the market. you can get other duelists but other flex? runner is mid

It’s a smoker or a duelist. Runner is the flex, and I don’t like it much either but apparently he’s playing really well, he’s got the mechanics for sure

hiro wasnt playing duelist on Papara, runner was very underwhelming and the others were so good they didnt even play T1 this year
Meanwhile you have Tenz, s0m, Tuyz, karon (always played jett in ranked and in Korea VCL 2023), monyet, trexx, Brave and k4davra and probably some chinese players i dont know about, all who played VCT this year
Thanks for proving my point friend

We're using ranked? Hiro wasn't playing duelist in SUP and Kadavra was? Trexx doesn't even play smokes bro what. Brave? Dude was playing smokes in 2021

Either way there's than I originally came to mind, but that doesn't make sentinel the hardest role to transition to xD it just proves that both are very doable there's plenty of examples for both

And most importantly, all of this conversation is fucking pointless because Tomaszy was a very good sentinel the first split and proceded to be dogshit the second split, so no, it's not adaptation to the role, he just had a very very bad split and that is worth noting
