i hope in 3-4 years we can look back at this roster and they are all at the top, they have the potential to clearly do so

yeah it was a tier 2 team that dominated most of the season in VCL korea 2023 but in the end lost to the DK of Lakia/Estrella/Exy by bombing out of the 2nd split by trying weird ass comps and a 6th man roster that didnt work (thats when UdoTan joined since they wanted some kind of change with Wolverine being a clear miss). But they were great aimers and a tier 2 that appeared out of nowhere, pretty much SPG before SPG you could say (and then Yoman/Stew/ValAnalysis goated poached to Rare Atom, lost ascension and the rest you prob know it)

2023 Gwangju Shadow roster so goated, Stew on JDG, Yoman on GENG and now UdoTan on GE and the coach ValAnalysis now the AC on Nongshim

he in fact DID NOT drop 30 LMAO

Influx drops 30

banger of a map 1

Dantedeu5 whole lev acad roster Spike Lukxo Sato Nightz Canezera Reduxx ComeBack Loita Lar0k Sayonara Xross Klaus Froz ZynX Caedye Yatsuka (and ig players like Snappy/Thyy for Talon acad) are all insane talents to look out for but to match Spike ig some of them could (i need to watch more of the NA guys as well tbf), hard to know when level of play differs a lot in each tier 2 league but its very hype for after the 2025 season and seeing all those guys play in VCT or the year after, also all those academies will help knowing more about the future talents of VCT

28/10/11 with 100% KAST and 277 ADR ? what the fuck

Xross/Lar0k/Sayonara/Erde/Woody/Blowzin (if not blowz could be whoever of Yatsuka and Caedye is the flex on Riddle), a lot of other good or maybe even better players but thats the ones i thought of 1st

fs, might be one of the dark horse of americas

wait where is Zap ? you're telling me 2G took a map without their leader and IGL ? thats cool asf

insane talents

they're cooking for next year

thanks for all that ! anything on the other LEV acad players and also any idea who is Kargelux ? (also KRU acad is odly a roster of experienced players outside of Dante and Mta)

FifTy has been farming this groups stage damn

the ex T1 rookies players do be aimers damn

and ZynX is the next one up ! since DRX announced playing in VCL next year rly hyped to see their roster

Smoggy +13 loosing the map is rough

FG damn

yeah the firepower is quite big now

i mean Juicy is very good so it will probably be an upgrade, just gonna hope he gets a shot somewhere else in VCT CN

so V1ya out just like that when he looked very promising ? XD

yooooo big thats cool asf

makes sense

you know that well XD (its a thing in jap/kr and ik Arf, Dsyre and OXEN have one too, maybe it will become popular at some point)

what is even that DK roster, doesnt look as good as in the past on paper + Premier aimers are on fire so need to wait and see ig

great aimers on both sides, NS took that one tho (SID absolutely nuts on Sunset)

lowkey good game no ? Uracha premier roster with insane aimers against the 2nd of VCL korea

apeX !!!

agreee to the list and thats a lot of interesting names, might add the NS guys too all of them can shoot and Kelly went crazy on Superfect last split (also Foxar def has potential)

facts have been spoken here

yep, the Oxen kiddos and Jcz also look good. Latam has quite the talented generation coming up (and players like Crazy NY etc could become good players)

FG okkkk

didnt knew Aura had such a good roster, could lowkey do well

ARF academy might be good too, wild

2.22 yooooo

GMBLERS hopium here i am

ye hope they do

ig yeah, but hey at least the best talents hopefully get a shot

A lot of players new to brazil T2, hope its good talents that can show they could be VCT level

there is also the DSYRE academy guys who seem to have promise, good news for Italy ngl and with the fusion of those 3 leagues hopefully it can help local talents to improve even more

hopefully Davia gets picked up even if GMBLERS do not win this tournament, kid is nuts

wait no LEV Erde ? KRU ITS TIME FOR ERDE X DANTE (ig still with Furious but surprising they didnt kept him, also any infos on mirada ninja ?)

yeah they lack a lot and Bom Alpha has showed way more firepower wise compared to Rui, but idk i need to wait and see how it goes at split 3 its still very early for a roster with so many T2 rookies

yeah both map they loose they are down 9-0, thats quite hard to comeback (outside of that liked how Fukuken looked, and BoM Alpha is cracked)

on that Kapi/KEI hype train here

i kinda agree but the upcoming talents they got hype me, so i'll wait and see

a lot of rookies on FAV so they will need time to get there, hopefully they are ready next year/stage but imo its ok compared to the roster they had before with way more exp (also surprised that SG finally promoted someone, or is it another ranked demon ?)

all good then :)

ye i know he was with them this year, but im surprised he is still with Lev another year
