Poiz had a similar performance in his first tourney with C9. I'd say give him some time to adjust and improve. There's a reason why Xeppa is now in the starting lineup, and Poiz is on the bench.
It would be impossible for C9 to place Xeppaa in the starting lineup without playing a single T1 team. C9 ain't that stupid. They do scrims against top orgs to practice plays. Also, Xeppaa is playing in a radiant/immortal lobby.
Poiz is a rank demon ,but it takes a lot more than that to be good in pro plays, that's where xeppaa comes in
That's what Vice said when they took in Poiz. Vice said he doesn't really care how well you do in ranks but rather how well do you play in a team.
This is incorrect im sorry. The mindset between ranked and scrims is years apart and being a ranked demon truly has nothing to do with being good in pro-play. Poiz is good because he has insane mechanics and was being nurtured in a good environment with good leadership, not because he's a ranked demon.
Poiz has potential to become better than xeppaa but atm xeppaa is way more experienced that poiz atm when it comes to playing pro
I think it’s too early to tell, right now their opponents are inconsistent so the stats will be skewed especially since they 2-0 everyone so far. I think rise today will be xeppa a first real test, tbh I’m more concerned about floppy the xeppa but I think they both will do fine
Just give Xeppaa more time, he hasn’t been playing valorant for as long as most other pros
