i mean he was pretty good when he played for nrg last time (not including the cove incident) and fns probably doesn't want to play professionally if s0m isn't on the team. i think they even said it on stream, they come as a player pack literally.
Yeah honestly I don't get the hype around s0m in particular when compared to a lot of players. He's a fantastic player but so are like half of all players at the top level of Valorant
