Giants in 2022

#1

Ibis

Quick
Fit1nho
jess
Monsterrr
Russz
Coach: Tanizhq
Are quick and Jess good? On paper it’s a downgrade from the previous roster in my book, i did hope russz has a better team

People say they are both really good, they were killing it during LVP, so let's see. Imo, this roster is exciting.

QUICK apparently a good igl but his firepower is bad prolly like bonkar definitely worse firepower than davidp
Jesse decent probably like foxie from finest or at most like russ from tenstar but not good enough to match hoodie

considering last roster was pushing top 5 EU, it seems unlikely they will be as good as that, but they should still be super interesting to watch :D

They are a clear Downgrade, even tho if they don't make it to the European league they are clear contenders for the Spanish vrl

Jesse was the best player of the old UCAM IMO, and they had really really good tier 2 results, including beating Giants twice
Quick wasn't the best player in MRS, and MRS was doing good, but not crazy good, I wanna trust him anyway, maybe I'm biased
Monster is extremely young and has potential, I really wanna think he is not necessarily a downgrade from Meddo, I hope he proves it

Monsterr and russ are really good pickups and good enough for high to mid tier 1 , jesse and quick are tier 1.5 players

i think that this is the moment that jesse prove is a tier 1, quick maybe lacks of firepower but will not weigh down the team imo

Jesse can easliy be there with the right amount of work, Quick and him will have to prove themselves tho

This is a hot take, but I honestly think this team will be better than the last Giants iteration. Fit1nho is still on the team and is still the star of the show but now they add Russz next to him. Jesse is an unproven but promising flex player and Monsteerr is a good, but inconsistent sentinel player. The biggest question with this team is Quick and if he will bring the team down because of his individual skill or lift them up with his IGLing. It would've made more sense to me if they kept DavidP instead of adding Quick but this is still a very promising roster. There's a lot of questions with this roster, but there's even more upside and I think they'll end up as a better team once they start to gel.

Hard agree, I think the destiny of this roster is on Quicks hands, is the biggest question mark

jesse is not a flex lol idk why some people consider anyone that play skye a flex , the only 3 agents jesse played in the last 4 months are skye reyna and jett. Russ is way way more a flex player than jesse he played breach skye reyna jett sova

depends what you consider a flex but jesse is a duelist

Flex is just the term I like to use for the skye and/or kayo players who also sometimes flex onto duelists. You could also call them secondary duelists or whatever but that's generally what I mean when I say flex. Like Russ pretty much only plays initiators so I would say he's the initiator player for the team, Quick is the smokes player and Monsteerr is the sentinel(With Fit1nho being the main duelist). It just helps me view rosters when I put the players into these roles even though in some scenarios the "Flex" player isn't even the most flexible player(Like Jamppi vs soulcas).
TLDR: I just consider skye/kayo players who flex onto duelists and the team's flex player.

russ plays duelist just as much as he plays sova so he's more of a flex than jesse

Just read the TLDR... It's just to mentally help me view rosters

Well, Russ would be good enough with Jett like to play it, the issue is that Fiti can’t play anything other than Jett Raze

Thanks for confirming. I was a little surprised, expected to see his name in a squad with more gravitas behind it. Not to say this roster wouldn't do well, I'm just unfamiliar with a fee of the guys.

Yeah Ik what you mean, and actually Paura trailed with this roster too, a -Quick +Paura and this roster would have been sick. But I mean, let’s give the boys a chance to prove themselves, they have had very very good tier 2 results if you wanna look them up.

yup that would've been another top 5 roster but then monster should've been flex and maybe sign a controller instead of jesse

Well, I think paura hasn’t been playing sentinel lately, so Monster could stay as Sentinel, and we’ll yes, I guess then they would need a smoke player instead of Jesse unless him or paura can take the role

But you get the concept, I’m sad about him going to BBL, he deserves better
