pretty sure someone just pulled this out of their ass, but what's the likelihood of this team working out?
MrBulbe [#3]Sym is better than her, but if they want to be "special" that sure sign her
how do you know tho, legit asking, sym barely had good games, even when he was t2
cioccolat [#8]Better than sym that's for sure
Is Flor trans or alnaturale? Cuz there might be beef between Potter and her if she's alnaturale
why would there be beef between her and potter?... if anything, they would be even closer no?
capital_d_colon [#11]It could work.
Although I worry that the pressure and expectations could make this move even more risky.Then again having a player like yay could be good as a mentor and as someone who would share the limelight.
I think she could thrive under a leader like Potter
Especially as a woman, she knows the struggle and importance of breaking the glass ceiling in a male-dominated environment.
dawnmoer [#9]why would there be beef between her and potter?... if anything, they would be even closer no?
I can't explain it because personally I don't understand why this happens
But in a competitive setting women seem far more eager to hate each other, like to the point they can't work together
Of course this isn't set in stone, it will depend on Potter's sorority, her friendliness towards other women in her space
I say this as a dude that works In a Vet Clinic
The women here HATE each other, like, frfr
It's almost like they have a "on-sight" switch

Flor is not better than sym lmao

bronzil_enjoyer [#18]people be getting baited by alecksdesk 😂
"pretty sure someone just pulled this out of their ass" definitely got baited
KITTT [#4]how do you know tho, legit asking, sym barely had good games, even when he was t2
well sym qualified from open qual back in 2023
and then he played in tier 2 and was able to make ascension (top 2 in his vcl)
and at ascension he had pretty great stats despite his team flopping, and he had the highest fkpr
shzuo [#10]I don't know why t2 or t1 teams don't tryout with her, just give the chance, that never happened right? It might be cause of salaries?
T2/T1 teams don't have the time to trial every random mickey mouse T4 player out there? It's not because of salaries.

- As a woman myself, I usually see the opposite. Usually, women lift other women, especially in male-dominated environments such as esports.
- Potter's background comes from competing in CSGO with a female team, Complexity GX3. She has been in Ava's shoes before and understands the importance of having women in esports. With her successful coaching career and Ava's potential, they could be a good team.
- I've met Potter irl at events and she is so friendly towards everyone, especially other women. She is the first one to smile at you and compliment your hard work. Definitely not the type to bring other women down just for the sake of it
[3] Yeah she does seem very chill
[2] I understand that point, but playing with is different than coaching, as the coach usually you are the one "with power" over the team, and that can blow up a lot of ways, we already see that in the Main scene, there are dudes with unfathomable egos.
There is also the "behind closed doors" monster where Potter could be an awful person, but I hope that's not the case.
[1] Well I think that's cuz they're the minority right? There is comraderie in being the outsiders, but then again your og point does make more sense for the situation considering the team would be mixed. Anyhow I think the 2 main interpersonal factors would basically boil down to neither Potter nor Flor being "pick me" girls ya know?
That is, ignoring all of the male variables to how that team could fail
(misogyny,misandry,one-sided interests,public image paranoia, etc etc(
bobwoblob [#19]Flor is not better than sym lmao
My deceased Grandpa's left nut crumply pube plays better than Sym
dawnmoer [#9]why would there be beef between her and potter?... if anything, they would be even closer no?
I get getting downvoted cuz vlr has no text interpretation skills but why tf are you getting downvoted?
cioccolat [#27]I get getting downvoted cuz vlr has no text interpretation skills but why tf are you getting downvoted?
becuase they hate women/flor
bobwoblob [#24]T2/T1 teams don't have the time to trial every random mickey mouse T4 player out there? It's not because of salaries.
d1 woman hater
Harapan845 [#28]becuase they hate women/flor
Mfs read "as a woman" and negatized the post no thoughts left
dawnmoer [#14]I think she could thrive under a leader like Potter
Especially as a woman, she knows the struggle and importance of breaking the glass ceiling in a male-dominated environment.
It still feels like it would make more sense to break into tier 2 first and prove herself there.
Although this might only happen with a coed roster.
cioccolat [#26]My deceased Grandpa's left nut crumply pube plays better than Sym
You're retarded lmao
bobwoblob [#36]*overrated T4 player hater
ur working overtime in every thread you can find shitting on gc it’s ok that you can’t get a girlfriend this is vlr most of us can’t there’s just no need to be so bitter about it
In the case she doesn't perform well, we can't afford to have her break confidence at that scale - could you imagine all of the fl0rescent threads
I want her to succeed, but a slower consistent ascension through tier 2 would be better for her as well as for all women and marginalized genders trying to expand from GC league
kanyefan4238173 [#23]well sym qualified from open qual back in 2023

ok realistically though sym was never top 3 on either the mxm or tsm teams. Tbh he was probably the worst player on that mxm team all things considered, so I'm not sure if his success is due to his teams or because he individually deserves t1
