Explain me something

Why did 100T bench dicey after first strike, like, it’s not normal to bench a player after you’ve just been crowned the best and they payed for it.

Either way, imagine how good they would’ve been if they kept dicey and replaced Hilo with Ethan instead

from what i rmb
dicey was missing prac

he was touching too much grass

they replaced dicey cus hiko has 10year olds fans defending him
how is nadeshot gonna sell 100T valorant merch if hiko leaves

at that time, when Hiko was still decent player , and Ethan just joined the team, there was no room for Dicey-which still lacked of experience

Well they were originally gonna kick Hiko to content, but Hiko showed Nadeshot the phat ass and reminded Nadeshot why to keep Hiko on the roster. That's why, so they got no choice other than to remove Dicey.

Dicey was underperforming up until the point where they already notified him that Ethan is replacing him. At the time they said Ethan was too good to pass on. Also it wasn't immediately after first strike it was already after stage 1 I think.

Hiko was still playing well at that time and he was at peak fame. Ethan was just too good of a player to pass on. Dicey was underperforming at the time. They also predicted that the meta would evolve towards single duelist compositions so they prefered to keep Asuna, which was the correct prediction, they only missed the fact that jett would still be the most relevant agent for months to come
