What will be happening bois any idea?
Crashies n vic still a duo most probably so if one is leaving the other will too. Ardiss is gone im 90% sure.
I'd think they will definitely keep fns, chet and som

fns is still the best mid rounder in americas, i mean just look at this team on paper and look at other teams like liquid and fnc and loud, nrgs firepower is nowhere near that of the other top teams yet somehow they still make international lans and do consistently good that just tells u how good of a caller fns is and how good chet is, imagine if fns and chet get actual top tier talent like sayf, cloud, trent or any other upcoming talent but the only problem i see is it will be hard for nrg to not keep their core of fns victor crashies and chet and they for sure wont drop som so the person to most likely leave is ardiis and if he is to leave then getting someone like sayf or yay or even zekken would be really good, would boost their firepower and give them a star player to build strats around
I pray for whatever god exists for NRG to sign yay. I don't have anything against ardiis, I can't even say it's his fault NRG got grouped (let's be real, he played amazing against Zeta) but I wish yay can come back with the team. I genuinely think other teams won't use yay's potential to the best, he isn't the explosive type of player who would run through a smoke and get 3 kills, he's reserved and disciplined and FNS used that perfectly in 2022. Like, yay it's a player who can get ANY 50/50 first blood with the proper read and set up, if you appear on his screen you had very low chances to kill him because somehow he always hits the first shot. It's not like you can say "yay go kill" and expect him to go like aspas or any other duelist, no hate towards ardiis but yay was better in almost every aspect except the agent pool
Yeah I get your point and it makes sense, but yay isn't really a "duelist", the meta right now it's Jett heavy and the primary role for Jett it's just to Op on defense. That's the same role Chamber has. NRG already has Victor as their explosive duelist to play entry, Jett's primary role was always just to Op on defense, the entry part isn't a big part of her. You can already notice that because the moment an agent was good with the Op (Chamber) every team ran other duelist and even no duelist at all. Yay's would still play Jett on Ascent, Haven, Pearl and Split, and Chamber on Bind. And he can fill the KJ on Lotus and Fracture (just if they run Sova Raze like the last time they played, because we haven't seen their Fracture in a while and they even played Jett Skye, having a perfect spot for yay to play Jett)
Also, the smoke-dash entry isn't really a must use. Everyone thinks it's super important but teams just do it because they already picked Jett, so there's no point on not doing it, and even sometimes it's worse since it isolates 1 player and the rest of the team can be stuckeb behind a molotov. Splitting has always been the better way of approaching attacking rounds and site executes, and the prime for that playstyle was for example when teams ran no duelist Chamber triple Initiators on Ascent
I think moving victor fully to duelist and letting yay pick up killjoy/chamber/cypher would be perfect. Victor isn’t an insane fragged but he always entries and is selfless plus he has good movement. Sentinels should suit yay perfectly. NRG’s problem isn’t necessarily fire power, it inconsistently. Vic and crashies can be insane fraggers, and even Ardis can, but everyone other than S0m is wildly inconsistent. Pair that with the walking orb that is FNS, they need consistent, not explosive players
Honestly that would be an interesting approach, I'd like to see that.
I feel like yay should only play Jett and then leave the rest for Victor. He could play KJ, Chamber and even Cypher but it depends on the comp. I see FNS as better suited to play KJ/Cypher but if the meta it's like the current one, where we have Viper and KJ, I definetly see yay rocking KJ or even Cypher. I saw on his streams that he's practicin with Raze but I'd still left that to Victor since he's more experienced and has better movement. Yay's movement isn't his forte, that's why his roles always were almost util-free so he could just focus on outaiming and teleporting/dashing away
