i see a lot of people have them as a dark horse. please convince me why they will be decent. cuz imo this roster has nothing runner and tomaszy on off roles plus cloud (best player) igling i dont get what some of yall see in this. also their coach just copies everyone never seen good giantx comps or anti

purpo and cloud usually play at a very high quality
westside seems very promising
tomaszy is kind of a 50/50 but when he plays good he plays pretty good
and ardiis is pretty reliable, similar to tomaszy but with a higher skill floor (so his bad games aren't that bad, but his good games are still really good)
as much as I wouldn't like to see it that roster can defo beat fnatic in their off season form
purpo- very good fragger with lots of potential
cloud- proven talent with very high agent mastery and individual skill
westside- t2 prospect with solid potential
tomaszy- very good player that adapted to senti/flex very well
runner- poor 2024 but showed good potential, decent aim and gx picked him over others for a reason
basically lots of unproven but potential talent, good mix of biggish names and smaller names, plus a roster like this wasnt built to make headlines, it was built to have good chem and win
yeah but that is quite different. heretics was comprised of unknowns 3 tier 2 players plus a fortnite pro and a returning player from the original lineup which had internal issues. and geng was 1 returning player, a ranked player, a tier 2 player, and 2 tier 1's from unsuccessful rosters but showed some promise. neizhino also won a masters and hsk had no control on dfm. i dont see the similarities we have seen pipson scouting and we have seen all of these players besides 1 play a full season and the 2 pick ups were on semi successful rosters but were probably the worst or 2nd worst player which is why they got rid of them. i like tomaszy but he was very inconsistent and im a vitality fan but runner was legit terrible and was a big reason to why they lost at champs. there will no doubt be surprise teams but giantx? i really dont think so
ofc they aren't 1-1, but they are similar. I think pipson is a good coach (very emotional, which is good in a coach, shows that they care, and on interviews explains his more obscure comps and ideas). I also think that players like purpo, tomaszy, and cloud are proven to be very good, and the players like runner and westside have a lot of potential. I really think that the fact that they dont have a big name doesnt hurt them, if anything it helps them. I would have them top 3-4, bc the only thing that concerns me is cloud's igling, plus there is a chance that they just suck, but for the most part i def see them as a tight knit team that can have very high highs
