._. why are derrek and nature still in t1...
since everyone's flaming me let me just say derrek isnt horrible its just he tumbled pretty hard throughout the year. Started really well but downhill since, hasnt looked world class since rbhg 2022
nature on the other hand is very mediocre, and the only reason it looks like hes staying on is bc him and potter must sync well, but i think that someone like stellar would fill his shoes tenfold
keeping derrek is fine, there not much scan initiators on tier 1 lvl. He is sometimes inconsistant with very highs and lows, but utility is on point. Icy is not a bad player, but not a player to win a tournament, as you saw last year, he struggled in internationals, but domestically he was solid, he always does the right play as a duelist, but hes predictable and his rifling/awping is subpar to other duelists on NA. Supa, great anchor and solid controller, great rifler, and utility. Yay looked good on EG on offseason cuz for the first time he was with a real team, i bet he looks waay better this year but not to the level of 2022 TBH, as he is not primary duelist this time, and the re roll is good for his style of play. Keeping Nature is a safe choice, but rather concerning, as he was probably the weakest link, appearing from time to time, but as an IGL i guess you can forgive some of it, but at tier 1 Americas lvl he will continue to struggle. The problem is that most of the best talent of tier 2 went to other NA orgs or EMEA, so there was not much to pick from. I dont see other upgrades from icy and nature for this roles, so i guess its ok. I bet they can get top 8 at most, but some teams in NA got really strong so it depends solely on teamplay and strategy to outvalue other teams, as their firepower is concerning for some players.
