SPG

I've noticed a pattern: many people rank SPG (NRF) highly on tier list when:

1. They haven't played in any offseason tournament (ya they probably wasnt invited by any TO, or they declined it).
2. Neon is their main weapon. Yes, they're a great team that can follow Dambi's pace, but it's not like Dambi is just running around using movement to get one kill while his team far behind. And as we know, Neon is getting nerfed in the next patch.
3. I would say every good team has adapted to the Neon meta. IF SPG somehow still makes it work post-nerf, then that's impressive.
4. As far as I know, we still have no clear information about the current team's performance during the offseason (scrims included). And being a "scrim demon" doesn't mean much right now—look at GE. They destroyed everyone in scrims (I've never seen them lose, at least leading in-game).

Well once dambi mastered traditional duelist or atleast jett (his wasnt bad, it just nothing crazy), it would be the refined PRX (coordinated chaos)

Ivy Persia Margaret Francis are all cracked. Dambi isnt even their best player imo.

dambi gon be looking like d3ffo in 2022 out there when neon gets nerfed to the ground

neon wasnt their main weapon until it was meta. Dambi is a really good jett/raze player. He "was" crazy in challengers. Their scrims now is still really good , at least up until October

They have better win-rate against DRX this offseason, according to termi

GE being scrim demons is false even the coach talks about the scrims results and they average lately

Yall be worried about korean teams when you should think about if YOUR teams are good enough

a lot of teams r invited fairly far in advance and with their season ending rather later than VCT so i imagine thats a part of it. and logistically speaking it seems as if the org is just figuring out how they r gonna be represented in vct with red force acquiring SPG + working out contracts to match vct standards

** why theyre not doing offseason stuff

vct finished before ascension even started so its fair to think vct teams get invited to off season events after champions ends and some teams arent even locked as ascension winners, you also have to take in count cases like the grd´s happen so inviting ascended teams its a risk unless you 100% sure they joining the league and arent leaving valorant or their rosters getting bought by other orgs

i dont think so
you know in china we have a old saying called “泰山崩于前而色不变”. that mean someone can Stay composed as if Mount Tai itself could not move one’s countenance.Francis is that person. he just 18. he can be a good igl.and i belive he can be adapted to the command intensity of the VCT.
and dambi he's jett have 1.03 rating 241 acs and raze have 1.12 rating 247 acs. I think NS is the most PRX-style Korean team.Although they may need to switch from neon to jett raze or whatever

neilzinho and mini both praised spg heavily, i think they know what they're talkin about

Cypher one trick got carried by his team and sneaking his way to tier 1😹😹😹
