Well tbh I thought Furia was just a firepower team but they seem really decently coordinated, so I wanted to know who the S-tier IGL that beat leviatan was.
Sayf looking like ABX Yay rn
Bro made the most scuffed roster imaginable in APAC and managed to almost beat DRX--without Cryo chamber.
That being said, with regards to SEN: STOP SAYING SACY IGL, he just isn't fit for the role.
Sign the world's best smokes players
create a shortage of good franchised smokes
resell smokes players at a profit.
i play better valorant when im hungry
if you did a fuckton of sports as a kid and have decent metabolism you're going to have more trouble gaining weight than losing it
mint said you're in NA and about the same rank as me, wanna yoru 1v1?
pls i dont wanna do taxes rn
I can officially say NRG is better suited for this meta than Optic would've been
Once again, the rest of NA drowns in drama as the kings take their throne once more.
that would leave sentinels with 2 nonflexible duelists
How are the circumstances of him getting signed important? The point is they have an opportunity now as a result to improve the results of their roster and they're not taking it.
I'm not saying make Marved a part of the roster full-time and drop Sacy. I'm saying sub in Marved on maps where it's applicable. Fly him out to L.A. and have him practice with the team unless SEN wants to continue being the worst org in NA.
their comp is shit overall ngl
It's practically throwing to not have sova on icebox i think
Yes, they've been scrimming for months with the 5 players they currently have, but they only just recently signed Marved as their 6th, which is not something they could've planned for. His addition to the roster infinitely changes the possibilities they have for their lineup depending on the comps they decide to use.
I agree, but if Sykko insists on the comp they're currently using then that is the lineup they should be using
They're just shoehorning both TenZ and Zekken into every map. All role issues would be solved if Sentinels had:
Zekken/TenZ - Jett
Sacy - Sova
Dephhh - Killjoy
Pancada - Harbor
Marved - Viper
Yes, and that controller has to fill Sentinel because dephh can't play that role for shit. It's either put Marved on Sentinel or Pancada on sentinel, but the other has to be playing smokes. Putting Sacy on smokes is a waste of everyone's talent.
When people strawman the shit you say online all the time, you have to explain everything in a detailed manner so they can't make assumptions.
You've clearly never seen Marved play beyond his highlight clips. His talent lies in being able to lurk, catch timings, and get crucial picks for his team. The only reason people know him to be a clutch player is because this playstyle ends up leaving him as the last one alive more often than his teammates.
I'm not saying Marved can out-IGL FNS, but his map awareness is unmatched by anyone.
Sacy understands macro, he excels at setting up teammates and being a secondary fragger. Lurks aren't his forte, and you could clearly see that on lotus. He's just following what he's been told to do more often than not because he's not fully comfortable on the role. He doesn't adjust his gameplan based on information that Marved or Pancada would've picked up on instantly.
You seem to see flexibility in a player as interchangeable between all agents, but while it's easy for Sacy to switch onto other initiators or even potentially duelist, smokes requires a fundamentally different playstyle that he just isn't comfortable with.
It's not about people playing their exclusive agents, it's about maximizing the strengths of each individual player for the benefit of the team.
You're a fucking moron if you think that Sacy is just overall a better player to the point that he can play smokes better than Marved.
They're equal, but in different roles, and no that does not just mean agents.
Yes, but you have to take into account the nature of their contributions. People misunderstand marved to be a good smokes main just because of his aim and his ability to get kills, but that's not what he's special for. If you want high-fragging smokes, just get Bang, but Marved has amazing map-reading skills and is capable of getting timings, lurks, and take crucial picks for his team.
Because of this playstyle, he ends up being the last one alive more often than his teammates, but he has the aim and clutch ability to win those types of rounds, which is the only reason he's known to be a clutch player to begin with.
For maps where he isn't playing smokes, Sacy is wonderful for his info-gathering ability and his macro perspective on the game, but you can't put him on the same level on agents like Omen or Brim as marved.
Dephh is necessary, it's stupid to sub him out for Marved, Sacy is a better option.
Neither Sacy nor Marved MVP'd after Reykjavik, but both were crucial parts of their team in the 2022 Istanbul Final--I'm not basing this off Reykjavik. They are on the same level.
Sacy is a good player, he is a decent secondary IGL, and he can certainly play his role well but he can't put in the performance of a smokes main like marved. Sacy isn't always put on smokes in certain maps, but for the ones that he is, it's useful to put the second best smokes player in the world on the role.
Furthermore, Marved has good individual reads and understands more than anyone FNS' calls and playstyle.
I genuinely think it might be a good idea to sub in Marved for Sacy on some maps, if they're going to force him to play smokes anyways.
...
It's real. Even if I'm down -300 RR it still puts me in the lobbies I was in previously.
Im gonna go by rifle/headhunter aim not awp aim since it's easier to judge
In no order:
mwzera
aspas
something
jinggg
yay
tenz
derke
suygetsu
pancada
They've been together for a month now, I'm genuinely impressed with their plays so far. I wonder what they could become with more time.
the guy who starts acting like a smurf but then goes 4-13 or the 14 year-old backseat IGL
clear only plays duelist + occasionally chamber
Riku has not been doing bad whatsoever in recent games, and his agent pool is a lot more flexible.
On maps where it works, DSG might try double duelist, while subbing in Riku for clear on others, since no matter how good clear is--Yay is...well... yay.
Otherwise, there's a strong possibility that clear gets benched altogether or yay proves everyone wrong on the sage.
May his midrounding guide him :pray:
the hot spaniard wins this
SHOW THEM THAT YOU JUST GOT ANTI-STRATTED. YOUR TEAM IS GOATED. I BELIEVE
Koi still wins this, Im calling it. 2-1
Marved plays smokes in pro matches but he's gone on record saying he actually hates playing smokes, and his favorite agent to play is Jett. Not to mention that one OpTic vs LOUD final where Marved played Chamber and yay on jett lol
raze* player but close enough. He got dropped by TSM afterwards and picked up smokes when he joined 100T
You're not really gonna find many unsigned smokes players in the very top of radiant, that area is more or less reserved for players that can singlehandedly carry games by themselves--which 90% of the time is either ranked IGLs like Dasnerth or aim god duelists with a kit to support their efforts.
You have a better chance of trying to teach a jett main how to play smokes, that's how most of the world's most goated Smokes players began their career to begin with: Marved, MaKo, Bang, Mazino.
might as well rename yourself Simp4N4ts at this point
The evolution of Shownu from respectful brit talking non-stop about team comps and players to joining in on the shit-talking is wonderful
