EMEA come here

I don't usually watch VCT EMEA, and I wanted to know if these replacements that joined the FNATIC team still give great opportunities for the title.
Because I think if that hadn't happened, FNATIC would have easily given Nip a 2x0, but now I'm not so sure about that anymore, due to the little training time they have, and having lost one of the main pieces that is Derke, looks like they're going to be pretty weakened for me. Are these guys who came in really good?

FNATIC either get shit on by john or h1ber shits on nip

Derke is the best duelist in the world currently and Braveaf is also very good (I think people say his shit because of what he said) so they are hard to replace... H1ber is ok but never proven on tier1 international level, same with Fearoth. Both players are solid but nothing special.

They no longer got a shot at the title imo, but they can still make it out of groups

h1ber nothing special, lmao

fea is very smart player, he is alliance igl + really good sova player with good firepower, he is more or less on part with brave imo and h1ber is basically one of the best talents in eu, fnatic wanted to get him to replace doma because he is also good with sova but he wanted to play duelist so he joined koi, just at his stats, that tells you everything about him, he is an animal

Flag bias or not but H1ber is one of the most promising tier 2 duelists IMO. 1.25 K:D on Jett and 1.43 K:D on Raze in past 3 months. And yes the competition isn't as high, but those are still some pretty damn good stats (yes Raze rating isn't as good in past 2 months). He hasn't even played that role for that long and finally found a solid team. And who knows how he would do in Fnatic system that usually supports Derke a lot. Plays both Jett and Raze that is big plus as well compared to some players like keloqz.

But they have no chemistry, not much time to get used to each other, and very limited time for strats and plays together. They could have nats and cNed as stand ins, it would still be difficult in such a short time

that would not make sense in terms of roles, fnatic already has 3 core players and its fairly easy to implement a duelist who plays the same roles as derke (althought derke will most likely make it to iceland according to him) + fea is a smart player and probably can adapt easily to brave roles, we already see this in csgo, when teams play with stand-ins they even tend to overperform specially is said stand-in has insane firepower, I expect them to at make it out of groups even if they play with 2 subs, maybe not first seed with 2 subs but for sure 1 seed with derke

No flag bias and agree h1ber is cracked tf out I still remember him carrying randoms with 40k but the only problem here is lack of experience, idk anything about fearoth

h1ber is amazing player, he has been tier1 material duelist for a long time, hopefully liquid pick him up or something if things dont go well for them so that would solve their duelist problem

you dont need that much experience if you are a duelist + most of the teams at masters are even worse than emea tier2 teams so experience shouldnt affect him since he is already used to playing against strong teams tactically who will make the job hard for duelists, maybe he even destroys them honestly

h1ber nothing special, lmao

Deepmans is someone who is special, H1ber is great (top 3 jett in regional leagues probably) but is closer to the other Jetts stats wise

Deepmans: 280 acs, 1.55kd
H1ber: 271 acs, 1.29kd
jannyXD: 234 acs, 1.3kd
Fit1nho: 241 acs, 1.27kd
xuss: 252 acs, 1.25kd

you must be joking, also deepmans plays in a much easier league, last year when both played similar level of valorant they had similar stats/h1ber even better, deepmans didnt play much jett last year tho, so all his jett stats is in a weak regional league, also stats isnt everything, if you have actually watching all this jetts you mentioned play, fitinho is clear of janny and xuss even if he has performed pretty meh for the player he is recently but either way h1ber and deepmans are very evenly matched, both could be star duelists in top emea teams, also how is your argument stats when they have 9 acs difference and h1ber is playing harder opposition? how does it make sense?

Obv derke and brave are better

But these are some decent replacements

it is just an opinion, chill

i am not saying H1ber is bad, i just dont expect a god performance and to take over the game at masters
