China academy teams

ngl the individual quality from the players we've seen so far has been very good. Levius has shaped up to be a good anchor, Rushia's a solid smokes player, Potter and Toast both definitely have the mechanics to tussle with the top

yeah like there literally hasn't been a single player that I've seen so far that's clearly unprepared or not ready for this level of play

I'm curious. At what aspect are they "better" than the rest?
Oh wait , I get it lol nvm

I mean that's fair but you also need to consider maybe the player they're replacing are just not good(?).

i thought that too initially but Levius and Rushia are visibly not supposed to be like Flexin or Yosemite, and they're good at performing as their roles dictate them to. Potter and Toast are being compared to fucking smoggy and kangkang so it's not really fair but they're good in their own right and can clearly pull their weight.

Do they keep the academy team in secret or they listed them on website but never announced them?

Kinda like how Crest gaming actually have an academy team but never announced them at all so no one actually knows 😂

they dont keep it secretly but they dont announce them publicly.
but academy players can title their id or streaming "edgy or imay player" and most of them are unnoticed as if they are just high ranked players

I'm actually really excited for Rushia this season tbh. His util on his first official game was good and BLG is visibly trying to take a more sensible approach to their gameplay this upcoming season

yeah it's literally common practice to at least have a sister team or an academy team in the lower tiers. EDG's known for having both & AG and Q9 have history in other games so it's no surprise they're partnered. I had a feeling BLG were connected with Temperature X after seeing that Rin played for them but I wasn't too sure lol
