For a bit of context, deffo was much more of a utility usage and structured player on gambit (part of why we only really saw him brain off click heads when he went over to CN) would slot in much better to angel's system than cNed who came from a very loose ascend team

Navi, solve the chemistry issues with trying to integrate cNed

That's some solid sentinel's future copium, I respect it

Bleed kind of get ruined by military service and player age requirements. From what I remember hearing only 3/5 are able to play in VCT next year. (I think juicy is to young and one other has to do mandatory military service)

To properly answer the question the answer is yes. The guard (aswell as gentle m8s and bleed) are able to change their roster like any over VCT org (this has been mentioned to be a reason as to why ascension is before champs so that it is equal for the ascension teams and the partnership teams)

Nah bob is just not on a good team, still statistically deadlifts all of xsets games

By the sounds of the announcement they aren't dropped they're just available for VCT teams (potentially without a buyout) meaning that players will likely stay if not picked up by VCT teams (granted doesn't confirm what the contract status is on them getting paid or not)

I mean overwatch was extremely popular in china aswell as cross fire. So odds are there will be a fair few fps fans who carry over. Would be giga hype if in a magical world babybay who is an ex Overwatch and ex cross fire play (actually played a cross fire Lan in china during that time) somehow made it but there's like 0.0001% odds on that

Doesn't make much sense, if you make a fnatic skin. All of fnatic would likely use that skin (because marketing for the org) then you can't have Derke win a clutch with a specific vandal then have everyone go buy 'Derke vandal skin' then you get the profits no revenue sharing necessary

Surely bonkers can win ascension next year so that they can add a bonk bat melee. EZ money for riot and the revenue splitting would almost allow bonkers to send their whole coaching staff to an event

Does he have a spot, probably not. Dgzin probably will stay on furia. He has a chance to get a spot with mibr but they also might rotate heat back in. Whivh puts him in competition with every other Brazilian jett to get a chance of playing for loud if the aspas rumors end up coming to a head. At which point would you take him over askia or pollo probably not

She'll be right Ardiis is the only player to get angel to stop smoking the crack pipe and play the game. Man can just head back to the FPX core

To be fair, lcq was a hard raze meta on most maps and without tenz being able to play raze. Zekken kind of had to. Then it's an easier rotation if you also have him off role onto jett. Odds are zekken is still pretty flexible

The fpx story line is strait up at better one than the paper rex story, would not have been better if the series went the other way

Nah Johnqt to karmine corp, you heard it here probably not 1st. French Canadian igl

Can I put a bet that T1 go on a run but choke the final and come second. You know for traditions sake

Did someone not tell you that's the 3rd Chinese seed run it down mid with a dream fpx not the master Berlin fpx. Them getting past T1 would be a giga upset

Heat > tenz

The champs skins aren't going to live up to the hype of the previous years

I'll be honest, more interesting titles which give you a rough idea how the games went. I'm all for it

I respect the belief that nrg somehow pulls champs out of their arse. But also without fns there's only like 2 igl's left across the entire game

What are your tier 2 standouts now that ascension is over in all regions. Who should get picked up and where should they go. e.g. karmine corp need to sign Enzo asap but koalanoob might struggle to find a team since every NA team has a jett they're highly committed to, shirt of tenz going to make content and a spot opening on Sen.

Buyout bcj and Zander from e g. and m80 respectively. Brings in a new calling structure with 2 vocal former igl players.

Bonkers duh

Idk what they're on about jemkin 0-14 qwertyy went 0-16. 16>14 therefore qwertyy > jemkin

Big rip, man retired instead of going to the lost cause that is riots approach to OCE. Can't blame him to be fair

Odds are it would really depend on the offers they're getting, if 100 thieves come in and drop a bag and half for johnqt I couldn't imagine a world where playing a whole extra year in ascension makes more sense than taking a big pay check plus the brand value of being on a clout org

I mean, coach backing their former player ain't exactly the newest thing in the world.

You know how people have like hobby farms that aren't profitable and they pump money into as a tax write-off.

I reckon it's old mate from Singapore's hobby eSports team and he can pump through the money he has to spare

Honestly though what a crazy game that he went 0-14 on bind but is still the highest rated player on scars at the end of the match

I'll be honest I don't think playoffs is that bad for an orgless team from a region which has sent most of its top players internationally because there's no money.
So I guess that can be my cope

Nah, bonk

Imagine the state of the Pickems if talon lose to dfm

Pretty sure he just signed the paperwork

Bonk

Up the sens just flick everything slow peeking is overrated

Big win for the bank account when bonkers win 2:0

How do import rules work,
Do they have to pick a Russian player and drop the other one. Are they allowed to have 2 important players because the win ascension with them. Or the 2 Russian player's get grandfathered in as Pacific players and not count towards anyone's import rules?

2 Russians > 5 players on the other team unfortunately

When bonkers get to play before 2am

Bonk

Surely I can buy one, they available at Bunnings?

Nah you got to be entertaining. There is a difference

If this game runs at regular time. These boys will have played both their games 12 hours apart....

This ain't even OCE bias talking. This match was scuffed from a tournament organisation point of view.
Thank god community donations and to large part bleed payed for the Bonkers to bootcamp otherwise they would have been going from Aus jetlag which for most of the players would have been around 4:15am start..

On the bright side at this rate I'll be good to watch it when the game gets delayed until 7am tomorrow morning

Me when bonkers are playing at 11:30 Australian eastern standard time

Who ever wins this deserves it, this game started 5 hours ago

Easy fix, don't lose and then you won't need to play 3 BO5's

Who needs sleep 10pm start. Should be pretty fast since bonkers will roll them
