Remove Primmie and Jitboys. So they can play in a good team in apac
potter (literally duelist) Top thai players duelist role
primmie (ini, flex)
killua (Flex, Flash)
laz or PTC (IGL,Flex)
Jitboys, sScarry, leviathan (smoke choice)
Coach : leaf or CBBK
i think primmie is not duelist because He has mechanically and AIM so good he couldn't be first in site if he dies first mechanically and AIM it was useless
my english pretty bad sorry!
Crws (IGL/Recon) ~ few Thai IGLs as good as him but Laz has really impressed me as a fragging IGL so he would be my other choice but Crws can flex to anything and I think in a fully cohesive Thai team, his personal performance will gain consistency without having to act as a median interpreter if Primmie/Jit dont understand fully.
Primmie (Sentinel) ~ Mechanically one of the best in the game, having him anchor site seems like a no brainer option for me and he will likely win every isolated 1v1 duel as sentinel cutting flank.
Jitboys (Controller) ~ The guy has quickly developed into a top tier smokes player who is very intelligent in clutch scenarios and decent with team util. I think he has found a role very well suited for him. Also just mechanically insane.
Killua (Flex) ~ The guy is just ban but upgraded, able to play any role (inc secondary duelist) but just mechanically insane (+close friend of Jitboys and Primmie so existing synergy)
garnetS (Duelist) ~ Bro has kinda fallen off the radar but to me he is just Governor upgraded in terms of raw movement and entry power. I think if he's given a chance under a top tier team
with good leadership he will absolutely shine again. People forget how raw and talented this guy is and his movement is insane with raze, jett and neon which is all the team really needs from a duelist while letting the others frag out. I think several others like endoist, potter are good shouts as well but garnetS has still to this day impressed me the most with decision making and movement.
Leaf (Coach) ~ 4 talented youngsters and a leadership figure in Crws who can call the game exactly how he wants without ban interjecting. This team will absolutely cook. For coaching staff, if you want to keep coach frost that's fine but I think Coach Leaf from MiTH is a very, very good coach whose timeouts always have impacts. I don't know the stats for this guy but I swear he wins 90% of the rounds right after timeouts.
P.S. Primmie could still pop off on duelist if he was on a full Thai roster I think and in that case I would sign sScary as controller and move Jitboys back to sentinel (despite how good he is on controller, his sentinel is better than sScary's).
atp Talon should just hire you lmao these takes are better than anything TLN did before also i would try with Laz to see what works better bcs Laz is an insane fragger on top of igling in comparison w Crws, maybe run some trials with other Thai players for duelist but the rest is imo the best thing TLN could do
Laz has really impressed me in every aspect (ever since I saw him on previous team NKT I felt he was good but did not know he was IGL) and would love to see him in Tier 1 but I still think Crws is heavily underrated and still belongs in Tier 1 and just needs the right backing. I think Crws CAN frag, but he needs a group of independent individuals so he can focus on his own game as well. Having a singular language will already help minimise that significantly.
I don't understand the governor hate, he is a really good player, do people just not like him because he isn't thai and therefore team has to comm in english? Ban makes sense, very inconsistent, but governor is legit one of their best players, apart from primmie. Whenever I watch them, it's always him and primmie trying to carry.
