We have to talk about this. JUGi possibly to replace ec1s or soulcas in Liquid. Opinions?

bleghfarec [#2]nothing is going to come out of this trial, it did not go well for liquid and he isn't an amazing fit for the team
jugi being trialed isn't that newsworthy imo, but liquid supposedly unable to decide who to cut is interesting
hmm I read that too. but at the very least it implies that Liquid is open to making changes, which I didn't expect
kocunar [#3]Seems like it didn't work out with JUGI. Still might make a roster move though.
who do you expect to get benched? soulcas or ec1s?
in my opinion liquid can easily upgrade from a raze 1-trick like soulcas, no offense to him
If Liquid drops anyone(which they should imo) it should be Soulcas. As a raze main you are expected to be one of the top fraggers since your kit is based around kills. On the other hand, ec1s is a breach main who helps set up ScreaM for a lot of kills with his flashes. Liquid loves to do the breach and jett flash and dash and it works very well for them. Also ec1s is more versatile. He can play breach, omen and brim so if Liquid wanted to put L1nk on a duelist or something like that, ec1s could easily take the smoker role back. Also isn't ec1s the IGL as well? I could be wrong but I know he was at one point so he could also bring that to the team as well.
Watching him play JUGI is always great, even if it's a bit inconsistent in terms of intent and makes a few mistakes. I feel that in Valorant it will be able to stand out a lot, so I congratulate Liquid for the possible purchase. Also liquid needs to make changes and this means that they are open to making them and that is good
Heavon [#6]They probably didn't like him. He's currently playing FPL on Twistz stream lol. But this guy fell so hard since Heroic days that I don't see 1 single point to bring a player like him.
I like watching valorant pro matches probably more than csgo but you need to accept the reality that any csgo pro from any top20 team is mechanically miles ahead of vast majority of valorant players, especially in europe region. So he would be a great addition to any team if he can adapt to different meta of valorant.
