2G2 VCT Americas 2027

Couple different spanish sources, they check each other out. The NRG and VIT being the favorites is for sure, the rest is more speculative

How do you lose 2 ascensions in a row to G2 and 2G

Yes, but also that they tried to sign him last year and I don't think it was the case for neither, but idfk atp

Well in the same 10mans I heard his comms I also saw Magnum's and I was very positively impressed, he didn't feel like just a stratcaller, but I can believe he ran out of ideas at some point. Having a second caller is very important and almost every team does, if they didn't last year that could have bee the issue.

Idk I'm just fucking yapping we'll see, I like the signing

Not all games but some, I do keep up with it

spike and silentz duelist rotation is vct level

We won't really know the roles until they play, Engh loves flexible players

yeah that's what I thought, I just didn't have an explicit confirmation

I mean he is EMEA to the eyes of Riot

Avez doesn't have to be the sentinel

Um, I don't think he was the IGL on NASR, but he was playing pro 10mans the other day and he did IGL a couple games and overall seemed very vocal and with great ideas

No no I agree people should be have low expectations, just saying there was a reason the market was how it was last year

flexibility and comms are his main strengths tho, but yes bro can shoot

That's not the point. The thing is the break up and merger happened right during the off season. They didn't know which part was gonna keep the spot and who was supposed to pay for what. So basically when everything was solved everyone already had a roster

That I am, but gotta give it to you, if we count the yapping on the podcast you win

I mostly agree, but the bad at roster game is more complicated than that

cap

Yes, great fragger, great flexibility, very vocal will probably help the mid rounding issues

Fuck yeah fucking finally, dude deserves it, he is insane. Been asking for this for a long time

yeah that would fit the description, just don't think Ibai would be excited about it

he could have worded it wrong but Idk. Just feels weird, I don't think he would be excited about xeus

His first split was insane

Is not a knock on Tomaszy, I love him. But Ibai doesn’t know many Valorant players so I seriously doubt he got excited about someone he doesn’t know xD

Neither fits the description

KOI could probably be able to get Xeus but is 100% not him. He literally said someone they tried to sign last year

You cannot judge him by his level 3 years ago. That's just not how it works, might aswell get dapr Bonecold and Shazham

Truth is he is not good enough rn. But that being said he has had tryouts, if he doesn't get picked up is because he doesn't deserve it

If you see him play in tier 2 and cover up his name you wouldn't see him standup

What makes you think that

I fucking wish xD

NRG and VIT seems like. People speculate the situation is stuck because he wants VIT but FNC doesn't want to sell him to EMEA

With more context there's 4 possibilities that would fit the situation

Impossible: Sayf keznit (No way)
Realistic: Fitinho (most likely)
He got overhyped for no reason: Tomaszy (Unlikely why tf would he be so excited)
It's someone we never discovered they were after last year. (Unlikely)

It’s not Sayf, I think Ibai just worded it wrong. Sergio says it’s not anyone people is mentioning, like with the coach

None of those names fit the description other than Sayf

Couple things. They said yesterday they had sent an offer for someone that wasn’t Minny or Flyuh, so I assume is this. That being said I assume the Minny and Flyuh things are very much real so he must be talking about a duelist.

And last year they basically could’ve sign anyone until the end of the summer so they didn’t really compete for any signings, ence doesn’t make sense that they tried to sign someone and couldn’t because everyone already had the teams made. The only signing they did try last year and we know of is Sayf, which Ig fits the duelist description, but there’s no way that happens

They already said Derke rejected, it’s not him

You’re really not understanding brother. He said you cannot announce any player that is currently on a VCT team, that includes players with and without contract

I'm aware, I'm saying if that was the case why would be type this "If a player is currently on a VCT roster"

I doubt that because then he wouldn't say any player on a VCT team, if you're gonna pay a buyout you don't have to wait for any contract

Making Ascension finals as the favorites, choking, reaching finals again to win in an epic way like Apeks. Could be the exact same script on all 3 regions

Is this related in any way to Maple loosing on Abyss?

doesn't sounds very reliable, we'll see

that's not a thing anymore , some sort of other deadline for announcing stuff I guess

Is this an Apeks situation 2.0? Even M80 might be in the same situation, only APAC might be different

Can keep both around for tryouts Ig, but I wouldn't guarantee a spot for either without exploring everything, a lot of talent in Brazil. wHat they actually need is an IGL. Build around adverso/Klaus/Nzr tbh

I mean they were terrible, not much of an option

Same man you had a point and tried to explain it. I'm glad we came to closer positions

Elbarco is somewhat reliable for EMEA, but for Americas they don't know as much. That being said MIBR is rebuilding from 0 yeah. Brazillians probably know who they're rumored to be after

Yes, but more orgs benefits them, more viewers etc. I think competition is good, if you can't beat those guys you can't beat everyone else

There's orgs interested in valorant, it's a big esport. But Riot needs to fix A LOT of things

I've heard Heroic NIP and Quadrant are joining Polaris next year for example
