Yes but no. I think there will be 1/2 French speakers, but not because they're French speakers but because they're the best option available.

Goked had offers from the best teams in the world as AC, but he prioritized M8 although it's an ascension team to be HC. I imagine if that is the case it is because he was granted authority to build the roster. And if he has total authority to build the roster he is not gonna pick up players because they're French, he's gonna pick them up because they're the best there is.

If you were the coach would you care about the org's identity or about having the best players

Seems like today is the International day of signing Dutch people

W for Milan

thought you meant Assitant coach or Inter and my brain was crashing out there for a moment

Natank I completely agree but he's been seen trying out with NAVI and if they decide they want him there's not much to do
And Kaadavra most likely yes, but it's up to the coach Ig

Oh yeah, sorry, mental disconnection there for a sec thanks. Points stands tho

What about him

M8 Robbie8k if that helps xD

I'm pretty confident nats is gonna stay as TL's IGL

And you finally get what you were asking for yesterday

Very much. I'm just saying if you want to criticize a coach criticize the coach. But clamming nepotism for a spanish coach joining a French team might be dumbest thing I've ever heard

Robbie ain't French wtf. They've made 2 signings so far, 1 is Spanish the other one is Dutch. Idk how many more signs do you need

Yeah bro, kameto and goked must be best buddies

M8 is not building a French roster, they already have a non French HC

No they haven't lol. You're not gonna like the final roster I'm afraid

Is 35 entires some kind of record?

Opposite of rarga who could have gone for the kill record

Cap cause they ain't signing any more French other than maybe keeping kaadavra and natank

He didn't really fail, KOI magnum already was a thing

They already did, it just seems like people haven't accepted it

Team is not gonna speak French buddy idk what are you on

Then shouldn't have hired a spanish coach. He's gonna make the team with the best players he can regardless of nationality and some of those might be French but it ain't gonna be all of them

Also, yes, yes you do need imports

Does he actually?

A mix of spanish sources, KOI themselves hinting it, flyuh with KOI bundle and KOI staff in twitch chat, etc

I think realistically it will be a lot less French

Not really

Not official but like 90% it’s Flyuh

Yeah it’s not criticism, if you get the chance to sign Saadhack you do. But if we all have that mindset that will always be the case and we’ll never get new IGLs

I hardly doubt that’s the final roster, don’t think Scream is gonna get picked up. And I’m not sure natank and kaadavra stay

And looking at their tryouts I think they’re looking a lot into turks

Great pick up. Finally a team that bets on EMEA upcoming IGLs unlike KOI or KC. W here

I believe in goked’s judgement and tbh, both GTZ and Joblife played very good valorant

Not even a rumor, people need to stop taking tryouts as a rumor unless we have screenshot from several days. Teams try out tenths of players

I don’t, I personally think it will be the 3 that we know plus Elite and a Smoker. But it’s unknown yet

KC, and it’s not really a rumor. It’s done

He probably does but you can't retain a player if he wants to leave

That's where Avez comes in

Yes of course, you're right. But if he has been able to do it once he is more likely to be able to do it twice. For example Kingg did a great job transitioning this year

Well Portuguese is not his mother tongue either, so he has already had to overcome that level of complication

Well it's usually either money or better project, most of the time a combination of both. In this case I suppose it's money, because I don't see how KC is a better project specially if you factor in the sentimental part

I don't think so, or at least I didn't see it. If there was I don't think it was anyone reliable

Yeah because ir seemed like the obvious move and I think the approaches were positive so everyone just assumed. But the fact that he had an EMEA offer was also said from the beginning, it just didn't seem likely

I don't think there was ever a report of a verbal agreement with KRU, just very close postures

Yeah because it's not done yet. As I said that is not reliable

Don't take that as a report. The no xeus part is more clear, and the Kaajak part seems like will eventually happen. Just don't take that as confirmation of anything

I'd say there is a very high likelihood it does

for sure

Then Ruxic might be the smoker idk. That would be an insane roster ngl

KRU said that's the IGL's choice and Nzr could very much choose to keep him

What is actually happening

Marteen Duelist
Saadhack Initiator IGL
Avez Flex
Elite Sentinel
A smoker

Once he has been regional in Americas before, he can't switch regardless if he has double nationality or not

He was already getting paid in dollars

My guess is the Coach will be Happy

Guess KC did get their first option lmao
