Bait or not, do you guys think Kicks is the right guy to be the 5th man of the roster? I personally don't heavily disagree but there's defo better options that are still F/A, eg. natank, sociablEE (who can also igl), Kr1stal (VIT must be naive to not look at this option too)

He's a good player, but there's no IGL on this team

if VIT want to be really a superteam they should be super looking into signing a proper igl.

Ngl I haven’t listened to like any of his last 3 albums so maybe I just don’t know

Even then making him the pfp is a little much

odds on this team doing worse than 2024 NRG? Like i don't get it why they signed T2 coach with almost no experience when doombors is available

I'd say the odds are low. even though EMEA this year is looking very competitive with rosters like FNC, KC, TH and M8 (i think they signed some good players i forgot) then they should probably be able to squeeze 5-6th in the league with aim alone. NRG never looked that crazy to me but maybe I'm only saying that in hindsight lol

I feel like 5th 6th is a fail for a roster with these guys

i'd say it's a fail too but the lack of an experienced IGL and the crazy rosters in EMEA this season may just be how the marbles roll. still better than NRG last year tho

I think so too as long as the players get along with each other. No internal conflicts and whatnot.

unless sayf turns into the ultimate igl in half a year then this is such a waste of a crazy roster

or he's just Magnum 2.0 but with aim and all the strats come from the coach (?)

I would've liked cender since he was an igl, but kicks is still a decent player, he's not bad at all but on paper he will defo be outshined by the others imo

If Sayf is IGL regardless of their 5th then yes

I really believe teams need proper support players and in that regard kicks is perfectly viable
Already knowing he has a matching personality and the correct work ethic is a big plus too on a team like Vit

Only worry is gekko really, but Im positive he can fix/improve that during the offseason, cause his flashes were already on par (or better) with the other teams at champs

Doombros and Krystal would've been the brain that this team needed, VIT looks like it has way too many cooks in the kitchen and no one to properly lead the team

Kr1stal would be perfect, good talent and good igl.

Whoever is putting together this project doesn't seem to remember the failure of the last super team (NRG 2024) who preferred to improvise an igl. I also don't think this coach coming from TSM is the best choice.
