This comes down to them being probably the smartest team, I mean in regards to the fact all players are very creative. These five are always bringing ideas and will contribute to calling.
Zekken - IGL on nobles and always has great presence with tactics and fundamentals.
TenZ - Valorant addict since day one who is always tinkering.
Sacy - One half of the LOUD mentality and tactical juggernaut. He turned Less from a happy meal boy to a mental giant. #MAMBAMENTALITY
Zellsis - Known for his calling and he is a vibes merchant sometimes ngl, the thing is he also is bringing ideas.
JohnQT - IGL who started as a duelist, one of the better mid rounders in the world at this moment, and I honestly think as far as game creativity goes, John is the least creative when it comes to finding new things. He has the best mental and is represents more the leader part of IGL. Also, even tho I don’t think he’s as creative in terms of finding new things his ability to call plays seems great from the outside. Being able to bring everyone else’s ideas to life is a great trait.
Kaplan - Along with McE, he’s the GOAT of NA T2 coaching, him and McE crafted Ghost and Guard cores, brought up Valyn and JohnQT. I think McE is the best system coach in the world and can drill any team to be competitive like last years C9. Kaplan probably can’t accomplish this but, Ghost gaming was from a tactical point of view ahead of most teams besides for Optic, he’s easily one of the better counter stratters, and has shown great engineering on the playbook although the map pool is still being built.
