Fnatic rumored to drop Leo

#1

There’s a rumor going around from a trusted source on twitter that Fnatic are looking to fully drop Leo, I don’t think it means they are keeping crashies.

Who do they pick up instead of Leo because he’s been too sick to play and fnatic stated he is a liability right now and his return is unknown.

Yeah they should drop Leo he’s really good but what does it matter if he doesn’t play. Imagine having aspas on the bench for icy

Boaster won’t have a chance to even get 40 deaths, they would lose 0-26 cus it’s a 3v5

they could put him on Senti and Chron plays scan so Verno doesnt have to com that much and Chron can help boaster calling

Fnatic aren’t cooking with this ngl, Leo is a liability yeah but he is insane. Hope he comes back he’s so good

If Leo is still sick, then what are Fnatic supposed to do? It's not even clear if he'll be healthy enough to return any time in the future.

Would make sense considering he likely ain't coming back anytime soon. He is sick so unlucky for him, but also I would get it from Fnatic's side. For replacements I think DaviH would be one of the clearest options just bit unlucky he is on CGN who is known for high buyouts. nataNk could also work with some role changes just depends what's the buyout. Verno could also work, but I rather see them pick EMEA talent.

Also UNFAKE could be option. He is good individually and is IGL currently so maybe they could develop him to become their next IGL if/when Boaster retires.

Honestly if I’m being real, I don’t think Leo would be as good as he was if he came back now. It’s been way too long

Maybe but he has been one of the most consistent players in Valorant history. Hes pretty much same tier as Derke in that regard. There has not been a moment in his career that he has looked weak starting 2021.

No point in being consistent if he’s consistently unable to play

my goat Kovaq is insane, best stats in Dach with a team that lost all games and he dropped 100+ on their relegation game with also clutching 1v5, i think he would be a great fit

Both Sayonara and Lar0k are sadly too young to play VCT.
Fnatic needs a player that has a VCT clause in their contract because I doubt that they will be able to pay the full buyout for top Challengers players otherwise.
Some possible names are daviH, Unfake and fitinho.

Edit: I forgot that natanK is available. They 100% should get him. His buyout should be very low I doubt that Leviathan wants him to sit on the bench.

Don’t think it would have worked, Roddy had just come off of drama so it’s risky to bring him in

If this is gonna happen in future I would say fnatic needs to find some replacement for a while until sayonara is 18

top initiators in eu atm: Kovaq, Lime, DaviH, Lar0k (17yo), Sayonara (16yo), Flickless, Famsii
notable other Inis: Verno, Wedid, natank
also when Chronicle plays scan, and Alfa plays Tejo, they could also pick up a Senti player
top sentis in eu atm: Krizz, Alorante, Serialkiller, Anguist

If they get verno, just put Chronicle on info initiator and verno on senti. Don't really need to comm as much on senti and you still get to upgrade fragging wise assuming they don't want to keep Crashies.

that would actually work out and Chronicle helps calling (should be experienced enough to do so) and Alfa switches to flex so hes not bored playing always the same agents

Ya and Alfa is basically a flex as it is. In kickoff he played Jett, chamber, tejo, iso and raze. And he's played kj, breach and gekko before. So he can definitely just go to a more flex initiator role if they wanted him to.
