Since he's going to Gamelanders the new roster could probably get to the top 3-5 of BR. I don't see him competing internationally tho.

Krea6on will not work as a t1 pro, his mentality is shit and so are his decisions he takes sometimes in games

I believe any player can change their mental and decision taking, altho he's not a prodigy, he's just a top ranked player rn.

Take for example: s1mple (Not making a comparison between them but just to make a point), he made a 180 change from the toxic fragger from HellRaisers and Liquid to the 2019 NaVi star. It's a long way to go for any player but it only takes dedication.

With 100t struggling to put together a roster, and xset making moves this offseason, this could thrust xset into a top 3 spot in NA. With international exposer I think bcj is a prime candidate to turn some heads.

I agree 💯

Zander is already a top contender for one of the best sentinel players this year (according to the community). I personally don't have high expectations for V1 but if the rosters fails to qualify for major events I'm sure he can move to a better roster (100t Zander 2nd half of 2022? too early to say but who knows).

Hoody has already proven to be one of the best flex players in EU, even tho he didn't qualified for masters Giants was definitely the best team of the LVP Rising Series and he put a lot of effort to make that happen. He improved a lot and he's surely getting better with the support of G2 to start this year.

Jinggg and Foresaken on the same team is honestly insane. It's similar to Heat and Mwzera on Keyd. I'll be very surprised if they don't qualify to Masters 1.

Fit1nho (Giants, EU). Roster has a lot of potential, on top of being an incredible player already.

Something (Blue Bees, Japan). Player is ridiculous. Puts up insane numbers always. I'm not very sure about his team, though. Especially because of the language barrier

Just saw that thread. I hope Patitek doesn't play controller again, he definitely performs better on Reyna.

btw do you know the possible/confirmed roles of that lineup?

Not really feeling the new Giants roster, they seem pretty weakened by MONSTEERR, unless he's getting in better form than what he was in Heretics. russz and Fit1 will definitely put some big numbers this first months but I wouldn't bet for the rest of the roster.

I have literally zero info, but I expect them to be running something like:
chiwawa -> jett
elllement -> flex
moe40 -> sova
patitek/ozzy -> controller
ozzy/patitek -> sentinel/viper

Unless they wanna take elllement out of the flex role so patitek can run second duelist/flash agent, but I don't see elllement flexing his agent pool like that, while patitek been playing the controller role for quite some time

MONSTEERR has potential. I don't the trainwreck that was the post-G2 Heretics roster is indicative of his ability.

I can obviously see it going both ways, though. He would have to improve significantly from the Heretics showing for my claim to be true, but I have faith that he will.

I would prefer something like:

Chiwawa - Sentinel
elllement - Jett (or Second Duelist)
Moe40 - Sova
Patitek - Flex, Second Duelist (or Jett)
Ozzy - Controller, Sage?

I know Chiwawa back on sentinel is pretty controversial bc he's a Cypher one-trick but I believe he's had enough time to play the other agents and master them. It's not as hard to be an efficient Killjoy comparing it to a Sova or Viper, and now that Chamber is in the agent pool maybe he could surprise with the agent.

About elllement and Patitek, I've seen elllement play the Jett for the first time a time ago and he's kinda good with it, enough time has passed for him to make it viable for him. Pati is just different on Reyna and we're yet to see him on Skye or Sage (not really believing on the Sage, that's why I would give it to Ozzy).

Ofc MONSTEERR's got the potential, he's young and I've seen him grinding the game a lot in the las time, I just said that it won't work if he keeps playing on the same level as he was in that desastrous attempt of a roster. I really believe he can improve a lot and make the difference for the roster.

Great reads, did you use Minitab or something to do all the analysis? I'm also curious about the statistics you developed. It would be interesting to see how one could utlize and manipulate the stats that vlr.gg gives us to create our own efficiency/impact stats like they have for the MLB, NBA, etc...

For example, it would probably require some linear algebra (in addition to the regular stats) but with Valorant even the head-to-head matchups could be taken into account as we actually get to see results of these direct match-ups unlike in any other sport. Would be interesting to see how players' weights and averages are affected depending on the opponent classification (i.e PACE) or by the individual.

i think this is more possible line up. they had elllement so they wont give jett to chiwawa

They're doing a camp early on NA, if they manage to get to masters dgzin will really be nice to watch, he's the only sniper on Brazil on Heat's level, and he's probably more consistent.

He can't play vct until he turns 16. He's currently 14, so he'll be able to play vct in around 1-2 years, depending on his birthday.
