Apeks, M80, and Rare Atom?

Losing to a coach shouldn't be possible bruh
Wait this is actually cooked too since aspas and artzin are both fluent in English. I'm not sure how good nzr is at it though?
I honestly do not have much faith in foxy9 anymore. I feel like he's been given so many chances and has never lived up to the expectations. I would match rather give a promising Korean tier 2 player like Sungbin a chance over him. Although, a Lakia to Zest is a good 1:1 upgrade although I'm not sure who the vibes guy for the team would be
Less, with Vitality in 2025, will become the first player to win 2 Champions
Not bad I fuck with this although I'm a huge xenom believer
Only sentinel alternative I could think of is maybe pollo?
Aspas (duelist)
Nzr (scan initiator + flex)
Urango (flash initiator + igl)
Lukzo (xenom subs until luk turns 18)
Prince (sentinel + viper)
Cooking or nah?
How does CyderX keep paycheck stealing
Not sure. He is highly respected in the Chinese val community as he was the igl of the KONE roster back in 2022 during the East Asian LCQ that comprised of Knight (BLG), Yosemite (BLG), Ninebody (TYLOO), & Luok1ng (Trace). He was also the assistant coach of EDG during 2023 so he gained a lot of respect then. During 2024, AG was considered to be one of the weakest rosters but was able to make it to playoffs both times during Split 1 and Split 2 (where they would proceed to be single-eliminated by Trace both times).
not for this event at least
Here is the weibo link but these are not the final 2025 rosters, just for this specific offseason event
For this event, the TEC roster is:
Abo
Rb
B1ack
AC
kawaii
NOVA is just the same as their Split 2 roster which was already -OBONE, +Ezeir
They did make into playoffs but then lost to Trace during the single-elim knockout round. They've changed their roster by
-sword9
-monk
+K1ra
+x3b
Funnily, JDG have -YHchen + sword9 so sword9 will be going up against his ex-teammates this match!
Getting rid of LockM seems like a bad decision to me but maybe B1ack will be a good temp sub. Feels like TEC had a lot of potential last year but kept randomly switching players in and out with their 8 man roster. Ezeir impressed me and he helped NOVA massively improve during Split 2 so I'm excited to see him some more
SpiritZ1 is a good pick-up for DRG but I'm not sure whether TZH should have gone when I thought Shion7 was the weakest link. Who will play smokes for DRG now?
TYLOO getting rid of Scales is amazing, maybe they won't be shit anymore. Scales was one of the worst players across all 4 franchise leagues I've ever seen. Sad to see hfmi go though but having chiwa from EMEA and SORRYMYBAD back is goated. Also slowly returning to TYLOO is a great storyline and TYLOO might have an actual competitive roster in 2025
Happy that YOU gets a 2nd chance with Xi Lai but he was never the igl for Trace so whose igling for Xi Lai now? Not sure if YOU will be able to replace Krystal's shoes
rip aluba. thought he had potential but lysoar>
JDG wins this unless K1ra and x3b are insane rookies
Played against Faker at Worlds. GOAT meets GOAT
I also agree. Estrella igl pretty good too after flipz left too, no?
He's not bad but he's fortunate that he'll be 18 as Comeback is still too young and xeus is trapped by a paywall
Pride below Valliate and Venerated is crazy. At the time of that 100T roster, he was the clear 2nd best besides Hiko
He also has a cool name RiPabloEscobar
If you ever seen him interview before you can kinda tell his communication skills aren't the best
Why does muto intentionally buy a guardian???
Bleed did a giveaway where you had to purchase the bundle and then never announced a winner so now I'm their #1 hater
You can see that Ncslasher starts to heal Berserx but decides not to heal him to 100. I wonder if that would have made up the 0.05 difference
averageferret>
Honestly I thought similarly about lz but he has really heated up as the tournament has progressed and has constantly provided value to his team
If you filter out the group stage, he's actually one of the top performing players of playoffs
Has hiro really performed at a level where he deserves to be top 5 paid in EMEA?
Holy choke
Racist must lose
How you gonna let the racist win bruh
Nah UcC needs to go 😭 that whiff last round was ugly
what happened to thisisformygurl :(
What da heck are Wolfen and dimasick doing in china
Who is noman replacing on RA?
Crazy that dsyre still have a chance
Nah, Mouz need to win enough rounds against JL so TU make it through by round differential since if MOUZ wins it technically becomes a 3-way tie. There's actually a scenario that mouz can qualify but they would have to 2-0 and like win 13-5, 13-5
It's the only time C9's -mitch +mitch would actually make sense. So, therefore, they will not be doing it
