He is a very good pickup in NA I imagine after dropping curry C9's eyes may have wondered.

FNS > Zander cmon now

I had my reasoning below, I believe FNS is overall a smarter player but rn teams should be looking to build young, new rosters while the scene is developing. Zander is also just a better fragger.

I think its unfair to not have Ayrin on there, he can IGL, as he did so on CT side for XSEt this whole year, and should absolutely be ahead of most of the people in that bottom 10, even if his individual performances weren't that good

I honestly didn't know Ayrin IGLed at all, I would put him right above Dicey!

I've always been a big zander fan, but he's not a better pick up than valyn in any way, and idk how koalanoob is below curry

I hate curry but I do think he had alot of impact on C9 though and that overtime he may become a better player. I was kind of struggling picking the IGLs I have zander at the top because of how easily you could build a team around him due to his fragging capability as a smoke's player, very Marved esque but as an IGl. In all reality every IGL is interchangeable here I believe the value they get is entirely dependent on the team around them.

Not exactly, some players will compete in ascension league as 5 under contract. Not everyone plans or wants to leave their teams, some of them can't leave do to contracts.

lol. i don't think any player, if they have a chance or offer to franchise team, will deny that offers. all matters are what is the buyout. correct me if i'm wrong. maybe someone (good players obviously) already tweet he won't leave his team?

mCe notably doesn't want to leave the guard and trent hasn't really said anything so we don't know, and none of ex-LG roster has made any statements minus moose.

i mean, players.

about trent, i think it's because his contract on the guard maybe is quite long. i don't think he ever stated he deny any franchise org's offers.

there's no way a players doesn't want to compete in franchise league.

me too. 100%. they will 100% absolutely bashing these tier 2 teams if they want to compete in ascension and move up to partnership. but i think Chet stated on twitter that he doesn't want to compete in tier 2 league, also fns doesn't have many years

He is not and SEN isn't likely to drop him unless they do a full 180 and become the most competitive team NA putting shahz and tenz onto content creation contracts, picking up zellsis, yay, and zander,
