I wouldn’t bet on Trent leaving TGrd unless they don’t make franchising but v1c would be a great pick up

tbh ion like the Guard's chances of making franchising. Even if they did TSM probably can afford trent's buyout anyways. Thanks for the compliment on v1c tho. Hes underrated imo

tgrd is in the top 5 most financially backed orgs in valorant rn (big mobile brand I forget which). also the org has franchising experience with their overwatch team. + actually being top 1 NA team previously, I think they are looking good

Even if they could afford Trent I find it unlikely he would leave the guard given they've shown they're an org willing to invest (as seen across multiple titles) and arguably have a much better winning formula

I would suggest Ange instead of v1c ngl, he has been a great player on darkzero and now dark ratio while playing really sacrificial roles, really like him as a player on those smokes agents, I also doubt trent is leaving TGRD unless they dont make franchising(i doubt, they got a lot fo money behind the org), so I would say that Jovanhi from ex-Akrew deserves a shot at tier 1, I really liked him in the recent games they have been playing

#42

WinterZ

Ange is a great smoker. He doesn't really play the roles I assigned v1c tho so idk how that would work out. It'd be harder to fit him in the roster than v1c imo.

#51

i think he should just take up gMd roles, I perfer subroza on flash agents, he looks way more comfortable than playing controllers

#53

WinterZ

Frags

–

yeah but historically controllers have been the best agents to IGL on and controllers is something Subroza can do quite well on for an IGL

#54

IGLs play whatever they want, screaM igls on raze, Saadhaak IGLs on Kay/0, FNS igld on chyper and KJ for a long time, zest igls on sova/fade, I think comfort is way better than an ideal role igls should play, also there's an uptick in star controller players, like Mako, Sugarz3ro, Marved, nAts in the worlds top teams

#55

WinterZ

Frags

Omen and the other controllers were Subroza's historically most played agents. IMO he looks more comfortable on Omen than he does on Skye or Breach. But thats just my opinion :)

imagine still caring about shitty tsm lmao! dude, they are done af and nothing can fix this crap org anymore! they are a shitty t3 org that keep signs shitty tier 2-3 players and thinks all they have to do is paying a lot... and ofc, they got 200M Dollaz for being shit from something shitty called FTX lmao

Problem is that the Guard likely get a franchising spot. Team is good, has a huge financial org backing, has a decent viewership. we're looking at like 6-7 NA team slots for the Americas and even if they dont make it as an org that roster likely won't break up. So including Trent while it is your hypothetical i dont find to be realistic.

#47

tbh I think that TGRD wont get franchised. Imo trent has a lot of incentive to join a big org like TSM

#64

if TGRD doesnt make franchising why would the team break up, Tier 2 has been established and that roster put in alot of work and could easily get into the league through promotion as they'd be one of the better teams there.

TSM might not even make franchising either. That much has not been confirmed yet.

Who IGL's in TSM right now? Cause as far as I know all Subroza, gmd and Rossy are or have been IGL right?

yup. He said he's comfortable on almost all initiators and controllers

Dont get me wrong, he's very good. He just isnt what TSM needs. Subroza is a smokes main and so is gMd. One of them would have to go and I chose gMd.

I like some the changes but the main issue I see is if chamber gets another nerf and other sentinels become meta they won’t have any actual sentinel mains

Good point… I’ll see what I can do to fix that for future rosters

Rossy can pretty much play all the Sentinel agents, GMD stays on smokes and Subroza plays the main initiator role with Fade and Breach

im pre sure gMd is there to igl attack while roza igls def? i forgot which side they both igl on, but i think removing gMd puts a big strain on the team, which obviously isn't good at all for the team, but that coordination both roza and gMd have is pretty important to me.

#71

WinterZ

Frags

I didnt know that. I thought Subroza IGL'd both sides. Maybe in that case TSM could move Subroza to content creation and pick up zander as an IGL?

#74

would gMd be a better igl than roza? from numbers alone, he does put up rly good numbers, plus they both have a lot of experience anyways, im torn cuz i wanna see tsm and more specifically roza succeed so lol

#76

WinterZ

Idk abt IGLing skill but statistically Subroza has been a historically better smoker then gMd plus he’s a capable IGL.

#77

espeon

Frags

–

then why move roza to content creation if, stats wise, he's better than gMd? zander is a very good player, but i think finding a better initiator would probably be more of the move (?)

#79

WinterZ

Frags

–

cuz zander can IGL on attack and defense, he does it better than subroza and he puts up similar numbers to him

#70

My choice:
Zekken(entry)
Cryo(op)
Zander(igl+smokes)
Sick(if he gets dropped. Honestly a God tier flex) or subroza(flex/initiator)
And any sentinels main(maybe bcj?)

#73

there aren't many dedicated sentinel main in NA Tier 1/2 val atm. I'd say go with a talented support/initiator player like brawk or johnqt

nothings wrong with him. Roles just wouldn't make sense with 2 talented smokes players/igl's on the team. One of them wouldn't be very comfortable and I wanted to eliminate that possibility.

imo subroza isnt truly a smokes player, he's way too agressive to not play some initiator

#86

his top 5 most played agents of all time are 60% controllers. Plus his form on initiator has seemed a little questionable tbh as of recently. He has more impact on smokes imo
