Ngl signing Derrek when you have C0M is crazy

Bro wanted kaplan and johnqt, but got rawkus and Shroud instead. Then after SEN dropped him, they went and got both of the people Shahz wanted. He got legit fucked over let's be real, but people still blame him for SEN being bad in 2022.

All time it's FNS clears, but I'd rather have Boostio. Man igled a champions winning team and can frag.

EG Shahz goes kinda hard

If Sen genuinely wanted zellsis to start they would've dropped pancada, and signed zellsis to the starting roster. All of this started because pancada was sick one week, and then they continued to play without him for the Sen inv. There's absolutely zero reason to drop or bench him; the season hasn't even started yet lol.

I swear I saw something that said they were continuing with zellsis for afreeca but maybe I saw wrong.

Sen is weird idk, or maybe they just zellsis to get chem with the team.

Bro don't ask me, I'm not the one deciding sentinels roster moves and changes. I just don't see why they would bench pancada before the season even started.

Nah threads should stay up, but I think they should add title changing.

People gotta chill, zellsis is just in for the afreeca TV tournament. They should really play pancada though, but he's not getting benched or dropped lol.

Not saying FNC won't be insane, but let's be real, dominating EMEA isn't that crazy. I mean they couldn't produce one other good team aside from FNC all year.

Cool story bro

I was judging depth based on teams not on players, because judging the overall talent of an entire region is extremely difficult. However, you can look at the results of teams in a given region, and specifically the players on those teams to help determine the depth of a region based on how many competitive teams it can produce.

If we're going based on depth as of now, which is how we should be going, it's: Americas >> EMEA > Pacific > CN (Pacific is close to catching EMEA tbh though)

Their whole org is as big as their val team was this year lmao

Tbh, I think Jinggg just felt a lot of pressure. Like no matter how much you try to suppress the pressure, with it being your last match for at least 2 years, it's going to be hard to shake the thought of losing. He definitely wanted to win too much to the point where he was always trying to make a play and he was over-peaking a lot. EG was playing pretty well though let's be real, but if Jinggg wasn't leaving, everyone on PRX (especially Jinggg) probably would have played better.

Congrats Krü on winning Champions 2024!

As a full time shit I can confirm this is true

I'm just curious what their plan is at IGL. Like is Marved their IGL now or do they have a player in mind to fill that role?

It's not the teams fault the fans and media propped them up as being untouchable. I'm sure the have high standards, but I'm pretty sure they also don't underestimate their opponents. FNC is just a really good team that's hard to beat, but other really good teams can do it.

Tbh I'd argue that while Viper is not OP, she's too good on too many maps. That's why we have double controller so much. It's kinda boring though because you get less big site executes, and teams play a lot slower it feels like.

EMEA not even close

The depth of EMEA:

I gotta be real, I was one of those people, and I might be wrong fr. Vanity pulling a masterclass against FNC rn. Shahz is underrated though.

Ok lol

Ok lol

I think it's:

zekken = Derke
TenZ = Chronicle
Sacy < Leo
johnqt < Alfa
pancada >> Boaster

johnqt >> Boaster

Overall though it's pretty close imo

I think SEN actually have more mostly because johnqt brings a lot of firepower from the igl position more so than Boaster (even though he's good in the clutch). The rest are close enough aim-wise for it to be up in the air as to who's better mechanically.

Bro put jasonR lmao...also Shahz exists.

I didn't know being a top 6 team itw is horrible.

nt tell me how that matters to my point at all

A team can be really good and overrated, especially in this case where people kept saying fnatic was untouchable then they lost twice to loud in Champs 2023. My point is that FNC is a really good team, but it's not like there are teams that can't challenge them or even be better than them.

Also, considering it's an off-season event with two subs, some role changes, and you're playing versus one of the best teams in the world, yeah I'd say it's not a big deal they got blown out.

Bro the fnatic glazers are crazy, DRX playing with 2 subs versus a full FNC team like no shit they're going to get wrecked. What happened at champs 2023 again? FNC is insane don't get me wrong, but they are honestly so overrated it's crazy.

Cool story bro

For Astra specifically, either Sugarzero or Mindfreak.

Tbf he played fine last year, like considering how bad 100t was. He was their 2nd best player last year for 100t behind Cryo. I guess we'll just have to see how good 100t is, but I think this roster has a lot of potential with eeiu and a new IGL.

Honestly, if they could just close out games they woulda won this series easily. I guess it's either a mental thing or they lack a good playbook, but either way, they'll be just fine if they keep improving.

G2's roster is still pretty good but 100t roster on paper is way better than you're giving them credit for. They replaced the two biggest weaknesses with far better players, and their core is honestly very underrated.

On paper, that roster is better than C9 fs, and I'd argue it's better than G2's as well. They just need time to improve and lock in whoever is IGL.

Ah yes, how will 100t ever recover after losing in RBHG?

Damn man they were so close smh

It's crazy how they were +7 in FK and still lost by 5.

look at curry man, so inspirational

I guess we'll see but idk how you think he's mid.

100t have played what, 2 maps with a stand-in igl under zikz, like how you can say he's mid? Also, zikz was part of the EG coaching staff when they won champs, I think he could be good.

zekken - SEN
trent - G2
xeppaa - C9
Boostio - EG
Marved - NRG

Coach - zikz 100T

Boom W roster, no?

This is a troll, right? Like fr, you can't be deadass rn.

Blud saw the other thread and was like yeah I gotta copy that. Like stfu, you know nothing about the game.

Bro, there's no way you're serious. Zellsis is playing well, but it's been one tournament lol. Also, TenZ isn't a Viper player so he wouldn't even be in that position, but regardless he hasn't even been that bad in the clutch. Just sftu please.

Are you blind? It's supposed to show you that TenZ is clearly not that problem, like what?
