Mortadelo [#4]We've had a bunch of imports this year but by far that would be the most fucking unnecessary one
i mean apeks need all the help they can get.

apeks is a finished team, are you really surprised?
GA [#7]arent they only allowed to have one import in flor?
She is from GC
GC doesn't count to promote more GC players going into teams freely
Ballsamolee [#8]wasnt there a rumor stating it could also be nismo?
Nismo my goat
He's just a chill guy
Would be happy if that happens 💪🗿💪
Mortadelo [#9]Plenty of options to do that in EMEA not named Rossy, specially when you already have an IGL
i'm not really sure who are available, can you tell me some?
like no good T1 experienced players left right?
edit: also how is avova, molsi and hype rn? do you think apeks couldve signed any T2 players instead?

its ok, rossy is not even an igl
Mortadelo [#4]We've had a bunch of imports this year but by far that would be the most fucking unnecessary one
I agree, it is very unnecessary, it's not as if EMEA are lacking players, should've put in more faith on their own players than looking for imports.
AZDZ [#5]i mean apeks need all the help they can get.
Sry but t2>>>> gc, as much as I want to see flor on a bigger stage, pushing her to tier 1 is far too hasty, I just don't see how this is helping apeks.

Apparantly was one of the best players in their trials
If that is true then well played I suppose

we are talking about rossy to apeks. why bring flor or gc to this conversation.

You said "all".
IonlywatchvcjXD [#21]You said "all".
all the help as in team currently is lacking and prolly wont do well. Rossy will bring great value to make them better.
Ballsamolee [#8]wasnt there a rumor stating it could also be nismo?
everyone stopped talking about it a while ago so idk
AZDZ [#13]i'm not really sure who are available, can you tell me some?

A good experienced tier 2 player is definitely not what they need rn. They already have 3 of those
Molsi is like, Avova and hype I don’t believe much in, specially hype

You're getting downvoted because of your tone but I agree with what you're saying. As bad as we all feel for Rossy, there is an UNFATHOMABLE amount of talent rotting away in the tier 2 circuit. And soulcas was a flash initiator/flex, so Rossy doesn't make all that much sense anyway (unless they're moving MOLSI onto recon)
FrozenFlame [#29]Isn't flor an import? How can apeks have another import then?
GC players are exempt from import rules to incentivize T1 orgs to pick up GC players

GC players get special privilege

Fair enough, but I did mean the tone. Nothing against Rossy, I'm not saying he doesn't deserve it, C9 is fucked up for that, but it just bothers me that we import so many people

rossy plays Recon initiator/viper nowadays, there is no role conflict with soulcas

EMEA turning into the premiere league at this point lol
Nachtel [#35]rossy plays Recon initiator/viper nowadays, there is no role conflict with soulcas
Rossy is supposed to play Soulcas roles bro, soulcas is on koi alr and Rossy does not play Soulcas agent pool that much
Nachtel [#35]rossy plays Recon initiator/viper nowadays, there is no role conflict with soulcas
Soulcas is not on Apeks, he was talking about him replacing Soulcas playing a slightly different agent pool
Mortadelo [#4]We've had a bunch of imports this year but by far that would be the most fucking unnecessary one
there r so many great players and they also pulled two unknown players from T3 who had insane potential out of nowhere (kaajak, keiko) like why cant they do it a third time, do it early, prac in offseason against T1 teams also they had Lime as a possibility, like he was the best player from a whole vcl season and is very flexible, like idk what apeks is doing

You need to keep the tone that way tho, if you :
welcomed them: org's will be emboldened to import more
don't react : orgs will still be emboldened
So you are left with keeping the negative tone as if to send message to org's " this is the last time you'll be doing that" or something along that line.
To me, importing is like opening a pandora's box, once you open it there's no going back,there's a lot of downsides with importing especially in the long term, I'd sure as hell hope they never opened it in the first place 😂

kaajak and Keiko were both in the Ascension finals of their respective signing years (both times on Apeks), so that's not exactly the best comparison

Rossy doesn't have to be the IGL, he can just be a secondary caller.
DSGFan [#47]Rossy doesn't have to be the IGL, he can just be a secondary caller.
I know, I'm saying if they needed an IGL I would understand because there are fewer, but if that's not the goal I simply thing they should have sticked to someone from tier 2. Maybe like a DaviH or something (CGN might have a high buyout for him but you get the point)

Eh, I think having a Tier 1 player who has qualified to an international LAN and has a hunger to perform more is better and safer than any T2 player at this point.
Honestly, I don't think you have to be worried because it most likely is an assistant coach and not Rossy, since on Rossy's stream 2 days ago he said Apeks hasn't contacted him, so this would have to have been a rapid-fire decision.
I would like it to be Rossy though. Apeks #1 goal isn't to win champs, it's to make champs and do better than M8 if M8 make it to champs. I think Rossy perfectly plays into that goal.

They've already got 2 of those with Molsi and Avova, what they need is young blood imo
But yeah we'll see who it is

Someone who qualified to a T1 LAN last year. Molsi and Avova haven't been to tier 1 LANs in 2 years.

That's where the hunger part comes in. Also Avova is far more experienced than Rossy
My point is hype Molsi and Avova are already veterans, it's not experience what they need

Nah, it's a different kind of hunger when you've just been to a tier 1 LAN. +Rossy doesn't just have experience, he has amazing mechanics for his role.
