they were definitely relevant pre franchising, just not in valorant/tac shooters. their rocket league rosters across the years have been iconic. their 'hype' moves were meant to be winning moves. they didnt sign d1 and ethan who just won champs for hype.. they wanted to win. only hype move i can think of is ardiis, who even then was fairly high level in 2022 right before being signed
No because they knew him and FNS were a package deal. If s0m would have come out and said "I'm open to any team without FNS" after last season they would have 100% perused him once TenZ retired. You aren't just getting a great controller player they would have also gained an insanely clouted player which SEN is all about.
hot take but they should just stay as is and try to improve for split 2 / maybe make a playoff push if you win against LEV, just for experience.
Are you really dropping any of the players rn? mada has shown the most potential. FNS is retiring by the end of the year and theres no alternatives rn; and you're obviously not dropping s0m. Ethan has still shown to be an extremely solid player. brawk is maybe the most likely but he was also considered THE BEST initiator in T2 next to Verno, it's entirely possible that any other t2 alternative would be even worse.
Keep their heads up, prac and grind for the LEV game, and if that doesn't work out, keep grinding for Split 2.
I dont think thats that hot of a take, not many players are on caliber of whoever could be replaced right now. Plus chem reasons. I def think we should stick with the current roster until the off season to see if we have better options. Brawk was 100% the next best T2 init option plus he has chem with Mada already which has definitely helped.
I don't think thats a hot take, but if I were in charge I'd 100% be making roster changes. If they lose against LEV next week, which seems likely, they need to win out next stage and place like top 4 in playoffs or just make top 2 to go to champs, both very unlikely. You've got 3 players who have said they won't be returning next year; this team is going nowhere fast so just drop them all and focus on the rebuild instead, get young players experience and see what you have. And if it's Mikes and not FNS thats coming up with these 2023 comps, drop him as well. But I imagine they won't do this since cutting your 3 most popular players probably won't go over well with their fans
this is just speculation but i feel like from what ive seen and just reading through the lines NRG management isnt very involved within the team and fns, ethan, and som probably wanted to kick verno because he didnt com much and didnt mesh with team, mada probably went along with it but bonkar felt like the grass wasnt greener and put his neck on the line for verno wanting to work through these issues so management sided with the players with the big following because of their brand. but the real fuck up happened when they decided to get 2 nepo replacements. mikes worked with fns on envy so he probably vouched for him and brawk was for sure just mada just vouching for him i doubt they even trialed him tbh. and i think this hands off management style basically just shot them in the ass because they just dont know whats actually happening within the team. now they dont have a roster for the future because fns and som are probably retiring after this season and brawk is just a role player so they have 2 pieces in ethan and mada to build off of and i doubt ethan will be around much longer.
