sometimes you have to go for new names though, I mean just look at EG. Keeping their core did NOT do them any favors

Marved was signed as their 6th prior to the roster lock, they can sub him in to the main roster at any time
When the off-season came around it looked like every team in North America was a contender for the best in the world.
100T, which had managed to beat Fnatic had signed the hottest young star of last year in Cryo
Sentinels signed the 4 S-tier players, two of which were the best in the world, and dephh
'
NRG had found a flexible replacement for Yay in this new meta, ad s0m stepped in to fill marved's shoes.
Cloud9 managed to put together 4 aim gods and a proven igl.
EG was doing something idk
It's all come crumbling down.
I'm not about to put my hopes and dreams on Zellsis. South America surpassed us, and they're the only ones with a chance against Fnatic.
The NA dream is dead for another year.
Jakee is cracked, but it's clear that Xeppaa, Leaf, and Zellsis are the team's main firepower, while Runi is performing better than Vanity ever did.
I would like to see him develop into a cracked smokes player with time tho
Honestly, imagine if C9 had dropped vanity at the start of the off-season, replaced him with Runi, then signed Marved instead of Yay.
I mean, they could've probably paid whatever Marved was asking for using the 4 months' worth of Yay's salary they threw down the drain.
Leaf - Main Duelist/Awp
Xeppaa - Flex/Secondary Duelist
Zellsis - Flex/Secondary Duelist
Marved - Smokes
Runi - Flex/Sentinel
NA had 3 T1 coaches, now we only have two in the form of CheT and mCe.
ok the actual team aside, this is the coolest looking logo and name ive ever seen for a team
Loud looked shaky the entirety of Lock-in, but they made it through regardless. I'm assuming they're just a team that relies a lot on counter-stratting, so they'll always be on par with, or slightly better than their opponents, similar to NRG.
If they were to play right now, LOUD would win.
DRX is 0-2 against LOUD rn. They have never beaten them and so long as they haven't, I will never consider them better--especially given that they've placed 2nd in two international lans and 1st at champions
it's harsh, but it's fair. The majority of the punishment that comes from cheating in esports is your public image ruined, as it should be
o shit... im startinng to think... he's really not a time traveller :OO
zexrow is good, his personality fits too
im making fun of diceyzx, i dont get ur reply
Bro mad that the player they signed for his flexibility is playing other roles. You think NRG should've signed diceyzx?
Since everyone is in the same city now, wouldn't it make sense that both Brazilian and NA teams would have the same schedule?
Stupid statement. Doesn't understand that Sacy has 0 experience as an IGL, only secondary caller
(message sent twice cus of wifi idk how to delete replies)
Aspas, TenzZ ScreaM, Stellar, I actually have kind of a thing for yay tbh (not during copenhagen tho he needed to brush his teeth back then)
Loud didn't select them.
Sacy, Saadhak, Pancada, Less, and Aspas all made an orgless team together and shopped around for orgs to sign their entire roster; loud was the one that took a chance on them.
1 in Reykjavik vs optic, another in Istanbul vs optic, and including lockin vs fnatic
Because Saadhak can aim and play duelists. FNS is so shit mechanically that when his team beats squads of aim gods it makes you wonder how tf he pulls it off.
They each have their strengths, but when it comes to tactics and mid-rounding, FNS is marginally better.
I mean just look at SEN vs NRG or LOUD vs NRG. You can't say he got carried by Yay and marved after those two performances.
All of this not mentioning how Aspas diffed yay at times even in peak chamber meta
Bro when did Yay fall off?
Steel is S-Tier IGL
Yay top 5 Awpers, and his slow angle clearing fits well with Steel's vision of slow, methodical play.
Steel - Smokes
Yay - Awper/Jett
Riku - Sentinel
XXIF - Entry duelist/Scan initiator
Clear - Flash initiator
"You haven't won anything recently"
"Proof that we're getting better!"
Once again Crashies goes underappeciated
ardiis 1v3 vs drx
I think khalil has to prove himself a little bit more first
Patiphan but thats because of his wrist injury
Best player in the world gets cut by shitty org and smurfs in ranked until he decides to make a newbie team to compete against the top teams in his league.
s0m? he's doing good but please Marved and Pancada exist
Marved against Zeta Reykjavik Lower Finals
Nah I already knew it was gonna be Yay.
It seems like the roles will instead be:
Awper/Jett - Yay
Clear - Smokes/Initiator (although i'd prefer for them to experiment with putting him on kj like PRX did with forsaken
Steel - Smokes/Initiator
XXIF - Scan Initiator/Entry Raze
Genghsta - Kayo/Breach.
Riku has been performing really well on KJ so I'm kind of hoping they switch him onto the main roster
I think Steel is an S-tier IGL ngl
He won 2nd place against Gambit in the 2021 Berlin Grand finals
Not reading allat
Not all these players play exactly the same role, Derke, dgzin and Qw1 are awpers while mwzera is a hard entry
