I will start - Gen.G will be a flop team this year

2 weeks ago 🥱.
I have faith in MiBR since a long time ago.
It does look good if you compare them to 2024 & 2023 rosters lol, 2023 they had Melser(who didnt want to be an IGL) as IGL and a roster with less firepower, and 2024 they had a roster with again no clear IGL(Melser didnt want to, and Klaus hadn't been doing it for 2 years) + they had mta at the start who only knew how to play 1 agent(Kayo) decently and then got heat(who was a true duelist and never played initiator before) to then go back to Melser as IGL and mta as flex(who bottom fragged like 80% of the maps in stage 2). Now you can see they got a true IGL as Adverso is, and one of the best initiators/flex in the world, Mazino.
on comparison maybe, but on paper i don't really know. i dont like adverso igling, mta is just a weird player who never justified the belief they have in him, shyy and keznit are the best players in the roster but have a severe choke problem, and mazino is probably the best move but i never know if he's truly finally on his peak form or he will go down to being inconsistent as hell again. i dont know how the team would be better with LATAM talents, but i would like to see klaus back (idk why he left in the first place he was pretty fine igling). the thing is people are saying this team will fight for titles when i just can't see it
MTA is not staying in the roster, he has been playing duelist on ranked and it has been leaked that KRU is practicing with Melser, Keznit has been always top fragging and Shyy has been doing his role very well this year, idk how you talk about consistency and then see a better team with Klaus. I like Klaus, but he was way too inconsistent, either fragging or being the player with less kills in the map + he left because he wasn't in the same page with the team, so if you can't be an IGL and you are not killing I think it's the right decision to get out of the team

We don't really know about that tho, a lot of people are saying a lot of different things. The official information we do have is that Melser is open to offers while MTA isn't, so is safe to assume that MTA is the one who stays.

Like i said, they're both great but they do have a problem with choking. Stats sometimes might be misleading, careful with that. Just see any important game from KRU and you'il see they both don't have much impact on key maps and moments. That doesn't mean they're bad players, just that they need to work on their psychological strength.

That's fair, but i do think KRU looked a lot better when he was IGLing. He might not have much impact fragging sometimes but his reading in the game seemed much better and the team felt more organized. Might be just coincidence tho, so im not gonna stick with that
Well for Melser at this point is either to play in tier 2 or stay in KRU with a good roster lol, we'll see. And I agree that Klaus had a good read in the games, i wish Melser had those reads while he was IGLing, but sadly for Klaus if you are not in the same page with the team and you are not getting frags its like being 4v5 all the time. I hope we see him in a tier 1 BR team like MIBR or FURIA as IGL as he also speaks portuguese.
Vlr's takes on "fixing franchising /T2" are frankly ass.
Soop is actually saving sea and no amount of viewership ( not like there's a lot anyways) will save sea. People just refuse to see it.
Vcj's development always takes a hit for every import they sign. We have academy players and good players still lft ffs, stop importing duelist as if we don't have any.
