Demon1 is a crazy good player, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t see him succeeding in a roster where he’s not allowed to play his preferred set of roles: Jett + Smokes.
It’s been a trend recently that there’s basically 3 main types of Duelist players: Ones that can play any duelist like aspas zekken, KK and so on, ones that play only play Jett and Smokes like Demon1 and Cryo, and those that they need to be paired up with: ppl who play Raze, Neon, and flex on the other roles (usually initiator), such as Jawgemo, Asuna, and even sinatraa.
EG 2023 made use of Demon1 because Jawgemo was there to play the other duelists and flex around. He played initiators and controllers a bunch, meaning they didn’t need a dedicated controller player. Having a hard controller player like s0m on NRG will conflict heavily with a player like Demon1. You can’t have so many inflexible players roles wise an a single team.
