100T management (serious)

https://m.twitch.tv/clip/TenderSuspiciousShinglePanicVis-qre7QlF_25VzIp-5
Zander said they couldve signed Zander + Cryo and they couldve dropped hiko but ofc they would never drop hiko, he is soooo goooood
now imagine the roster they wouldve had: Zander, Cryo, Asuna, Ethan, BabyJ

seriously whoever is in charge of that decision needs to be kicked immediatly, like wtf
the potential roster couldve easily been the best team in NA and maybe even have the potential and talent to bring home a masters/champions or atleast make finals in one of those events

sowwy :(
well since you want an argument ill give you one
C9 are better than any team in NA. Prove me wrong.

I thought someone said that they didn't mesh well as a team when trialing. I forgot who said that though so don't quote me on that

cant prove you wrong since 100T Valorant team is fucking dumb and doesnt know how to make good decisions
also V1 is up there and can definetkly challenge C9

mitch diff and another argument is
maybe they saw better things in ec1s than zander and cryo

"maybe they saw better things in ec1s than zander and cryo"
if they did they are straight up dumb af and ignorant about the scene + have never watched a single game of valorant. Everyone literally everyone knew Zander and Cryo are the next big players in NA and noone with a clear mind can argue with Ec1s over zander

Cryo and Zander are too good for the 100T org

zander is 100% a better IGL than ec1s but you aren't the one in the server. Even if I am wrong about this thing, you can't be judging 100T management because of some move that they thought from their eyes was going to be good. Asuna consistently praised ec1s about how he would take scrims seriously, and make him focus more. Not taking anything away from Zander but you can't be saying this when you don't know whats going on in and out of the server when they were deciding if they wanted ec1s or zander and cryo

this is in hindsight tho i dont think people expected those 2 to be that good, not me atleast

yeah but if you are in such a high position u know how good they are, if you are a proplayer or a coach u should know and see how good they are

What if 100T actually wins all the three remaining matches? Mastermind Nadeshot actually pulled off a big brain signing of Bats and Jcned . All the hate to 100T will turn into agonizing pleasure for the clutch signing. The whole valorant scene no the whole esports scene will lose their minds and will never doubt 100T management. What if? What if? What if 100T just actually kept steel maybe I would have never thought of this shit.

I dont think this change rn is bad im talking about past decisions. also even if they win the next 3 games its probably worse than what they wouldve done with cryo and zander

No one knows the actual working or behind the scenes, so we cant judge. Esports is still pretty confidential when it comes to contracts and bts. If hiko was the problem, I guarantee you they would've removed him immediately. Ultimately an org is created to make money and win. They wouldn't sacrifice an even just because they "love" hiko.

cryo + asuna would have been to cracked

Finally Asuna not on Jett ever again

w

well thats in the past. no point complaing abit it for months on end

They couldn't have dropped Hiko though or else they wouldn't meet the 3/5 core player requirement to be invited to the closed qualifier (would only have ethan and asuna which is 2/5)

thats just for circuit points, noway they just kick them out

PrTsty [#22]

Well I think if they would have kicked hiko and only had 2 players left they would have had to compete in the open qualifiers and the next team below them would have gotten invited. If I understand it correctly but correct me if im wrong!

uh in vct br vikings changed 100% of their roster and they still got invited

jblancard [#24]

different rules in BR and NA

feelsbadboaster [#25]

different rules in BR and NA

ok but wheres this rule that u needed the same 3/5 players to be invited in NA???

if only...

Zander, Cryo, Asuna, Ethan, BabyJ sounds really cracked on paper

Yeah man, the 100t management shld have went into future and known 2 tier 2 players with massive buyouts would be this good.
u r just being hindsight harry

They didnt want to spend that much just on their buy outs so they went out and bought 2 Free agents

idk if i understand it well but 100t could still have kept babyJ and dropped hiko+ec1s. then asuna, ethan and babyJ would be the 3 players required and then they couldve still gotten bang and jcstani?

Who is 100T?? All I know is 130Thieves.

Idk how it works now that the closed qualifier is already underway so that I cannot help you with.

But basically the ruling is that they qualified for this closed qualifier through invitation on the basis that they were top 4 in circuit points last year AND still had at least 3/5 players who helped achieve that top 4 place and played at least 1 match during that time (last year)

My only statement was to the OP where (although an exciting idea) they couldn't have originally dropped hiko as well after losing steel and nitr0 in order to sign cryo, zander, and babyj as they would have forfeited their invitation rights since they no longer meet that 3/5 player ruling

again idk how it would work if they would have dropped hiko now that the closed qualifier is already underway but at this point it wouldn't have mattered for signing cryo and zander, obviously

i know it was a mickey mouse tournament but C9 have already 2-0d V1 in the knights valorampage tournament not long before quals

bro what? everyone was talking big about cryo and zander, they were the most hyped players and have proven that they are insane in many different tournaments, thats why XSET and V1 picked them up, XSET even dropped PureR to get him
