I think their one weakness in many of their comps is they lack a true scan initiator main. A guy like RieNs in this team would be unfair

T1 great on Ascent ngl

Xeus is so good

Heretics had the worst off season ever last year and ended up being one of the best teams itw. people that value results this time a year is delusional

then go watch Fnatics games yesterday

It's 4v5 and they got 9 rounds without pistol against G2 :) You know Sayanora can't even play next season. Too young. Leo will be back soon

Bruh he was one of the best in EMEA Tier 2 last season. It's just during the off-season until Leo is back for regular season

This is the first game you watched i see. He's been insane earlier, but is just 16 years old first time on stage. He can't even play VCT yet. His time will come in 1-2 years

His aim is nuts. Give him some more time and he'll be so fucking scary

Kaajak is great. VLR takes.. Your probably below plat. Just use ur eyes

Leo will be back for VCT. Can't wait to have the goat back in VCT. He is a huge part of FNC Success

bruh they let heretics with a coach get 11 rounds. they also won both pistols lol

It's just pre season man. Trying things out. If it doesn't work they'll just go back to old roles

probably didn't even have time for a DM before the game lmao xD

People forget that each team focus on different things in pre season. Heretics literally lost vs Fokus and UCAM last off season, and then went on to be one of the best teams itw when the season began

They are an exciting new team but in no way a superteam what

Didn't FUT stop them yesterday?

Might be good for them. I remember last off-season Heretics lost to Fokus and UCAM and went on to be one of the best in the world lol

Xeus clears in everything except oping

Yeah, every coach and player rates him sooo highly.

Saadhak even made a tweet mid game lol

Yeah ofcourse lol, why wouldn't they. But it's guaranteed they're just out there to have fun and enjoy their new fanbase. It's a BO1 showmatch, it's not like ENGH been prepping for this match for weeks

Avez is a shooter aswell

bruh it's a showmatch for the fans with the new roster, they all wanna show themselves for the fans. its not that serious

Jamppi is also a vibe guy, kinda like Zellsis for SEN. I think it could be good for the other Vitality players to have a guy like him. Also flexible asf

Ardiis is a great player but that would mean KOI wouldnt have a good Raze/Neon player, no?

We don't know if he'll IGL though. They're still missing 2 pieces

They should put Magnum on Sentinel since they're keeping him tbh. He doesn't feel comfortable on Initiator

Has he been IGLing? Midrounding was KCs biggest struggle last year imo

He's IGL too right?

avez has way more experience on initiators than sentinel. My guess is he's going to flex for them

Because it requires brain

Vitality should keep this core but replace Runner with Hiro on the sentinel role, if Runner doesnt pop off in champs.

Ascendant? I was the enemy Raze lmao

was it on sunset?

But no Miniboo this time :/

Boo is a good IGL. Although i think without wo0t it will be a bit of a firepower diff. Still looking forward to see what Heretics can do here with a sub

I think Heretics firepower won't be enough without Wo0t in this matchup, we'll see though.

If he keeps this out he's up there easily. Amazing performance today imo

Man they are so scary. All cracked players just taking turn on big plays. And they got fucking Engh behind them making them look so drilled so soon.

They impressed TF out of me considering one of their most cracked players isn't in the server. Can't wait to watch them with Woot. Patitek the goat stand in though.

He's been playing great for a sub but still the lowest rated player and Woot is simply too talented. Shout out Pati thou

bruh you can't compare off season to an actual VCT game. Teams often just trying new stuff, experimenting. Woot is too talented to not be an upgrade

yeah his overall mechanics is just nuts

They have so many cool strats aswell. They've been cooking and Boo is calling superb.

Imagine the firepower next split with woot aswell. Shout out to Patitek though he's been real solid.

They won 2/3 trophies and top 4 champs last year. Not a dynasty but EASILY the most accomplished team lol, u just yappin.

Insane performance

No, he won't be 18. Will play with them after Madrid

Cypher too strong rn for chamber to be full on meta

no need really on that map tbh
