My Ideas for the roster would be

• -Asuna (100%)
• Kumi

Kumi plays a very similar almost identical role to Asuna. Kumi plays Entry Duelist as well as flexing to Tejo and Gekko before, doing exceptionally well on both roles. The only reason he may not get picked up could factor into two reasons. One is that he is not very well known to my understanding, and two that he might be under 18. If he is able to play I believe he would fill Asuna's role to the T without causing any Role Issues.

Other Options are + Okeanos or +Victor. Both could fill the role well.

In terms of any other changes they could do

• -Eeiu
  Yet I believe he is just having a rough time, as the entire team has recently, mainly like Boostio was. I try not to overreact since people do have drops in performance and that is okay, nobody is perfect other than Leo my Goat. For real though besides Cryo, since Stage 1 last year Eeiu has been the standout player on the team besides Cryo. Eeiu has good utility and great highlights, I am willing to give him a shot in Stage 2.

I got you. It is because of how he plays the role and his highlights. Jawg does not bait on the entry, and typically gets the first blood. His playstyle is perfect for the duelist role in theory. Now the primary reason he is hyped is because of his outrageous highlights, especially on A site ascent. No other duelist will ever be able to hit the shots and highlights he can because of his insanely fast sens, its like he is in a different game sometimes.

He is better on other roles but he did play the Role of the Duelist best in the region, his amount of First Bloods is Crazy along with the fact he rarely ever baited.

I’m talking Current Form. Kai just might be the best team in the region stuck on a mid team.

After seeing the Final Trailer I am all on board with this moving possibly being Peak Cinema. Who else is hyped?

Boostio DOES Frag. Nobody is perfect he can have a few bad series. You have no ball knowledge

Not just Handsome, Sexy.

I Imagined the Mid Rounds to be easier on the Sentinel and Controller role as well. Take Johnqt and Boo for example. When they played those core roles they had the best reads and mid rounds, when they decided to try Initiator the reads went down the drain.

I'm sure we have all heard the idea that IGL'ng as an Initiator is the way to go, but I cannot be the only one that believes its a lot less optimal than Sentinel or Controller IGL'ng?

I would Imagine Mid-Rounding and the ability to Macro your teammates would be more difficult to do on a role that is all up in the action with the Duelist.

This forum is just for discussion, everyone be reasonable with your comments, no ragebaiting.

Because they were on map point lmao

I just woke up and remembered Bangs 4k to close out split after Loud were making an impressive comeback. Now that I looked back on it Bang saved them from a very possible 2-0 that round. Sentinels were force buying, if they lost that round they would have likely went to OT and who knows what happens then. Bang the MVP for saving them lmao

Thank Y'all I wanted to know before going in.

Are they running an IGL or doing a PRX?

Nothing to be sorry for mate.

Fair Point. You would realistically not know this but I typically only make roster ideas with upcoming Talents, I do not know if there is a thing you can look at to see my prior posts but vast majority of my reworks or changes do involve mostly T2 Talent. Victor is just an Idea and I do believe that with actual winning experience teams can go a long way. This is just a platform to spread ideas and thoughts. At the end of the day we probably were both a bit harsh to spread judgement, nothing we should take too seriously lmao its not like the organizations listen to us much.

You are right, should have thought more before talking about Haven Lmao, good catch.

Been scarred enough. They always look good in Regulation but the second they have have any type of pressure they crumble, ever iteration of C9 has. A bit of Bias as well, loved when Victor was good and I thought if there was a change he would slot in quite well. Just an Idea its a platform where I am able to spread Ideas instead of keeping them in my head, everyone can. That is why

Read what I say first before Rage Baiting. I said he needs some proving to do before he gets a shot back on T1. Go do something else.

I was going to save this Idea until we find out if they make Toronto or not, but It does not matter. Hypothetically if they do not make Toronto what should they do?

My Idea is replacing Net with Victor.

Net is good but not flexible enough in a Double Duelist "Meta. This is probably the reason behind the Haven Perma Ban because its dominated by Yoru, Iso agent compositions. With Victor not only would they be able to have that Flexibility but they would have two Victors on the same team, seems written in the stars. Victor was a good player and I think needs a bit of proving to do on M80 but if he looks good we could get Vintage Victor form OpTic back on a T1 Team.

Siduzord from Stellae Gaming seems like a decent IGL, there on a decent run right now.

He is who I would pick up as well. Then you have to ask the question about Mwzerra. In my opinion I would go Mw > Pryze. Good Sub for him but Dub was the best player this organization ever had.

This Team is confusing. It seems like they have the right pieces in the offseason, but cursed on Stage. What would you do to “Fix” this Team? Nothing completely Drastic or Unrealistic.

Do you Bench Khalil? If so do you move another player to Perma Controller or do you sign someone, if so who?
If you don’t bench Khalil who do you bench? What will you do with Mw? Do you keep Pryze? What will be the Roles?

They are definitely a “One Step at a Time” Team. I can see K1ngg stepping up if they make it to playoffs for sure.

9.5/10, Best GX Changes I have seen here. Lowel is a great T2 Controller. Along with the signings of Trexx and Bonkar who are both highly rated in there roles this team would actually live up to the hype they had in the Offseason, at least my hype. International Contenders for sure.

I agree that there are good T2 Sentinels but last year on LEV Tex was outrageously impressive. My Favorite player on LEV for that run, he had the crispiest aim in the region along with some of the best highlights. If he is playing at that Level he is the best Sentinel alongside a Kickoff Leaf.

9/10 Fire List ngl, Bonkar as coach would go hard with this team. I miss D3ffo in T1, he was cracked.

NRG 2026 Rebuild
(Not the most realistic)

• Brawk gets cut, moves to another T1 Roster
• FNS gets moved to Head Coach
• Leviatan moves to an all LATAM Roster
• NRG Signs Tex and Rossy

NRG 2026

• Mada Primary Duelist
• s0m Primary Controller
• Ethan Flash Initiator
• Tex Primary Sentinel
• Rossy Recon Initiator IGL

First of all the only reason I say this is not the most realistic is because I have heard from a few people that FNS does not want to become a coach anytime soon. I Moved Brawk because him and Ethan in my opinion are both Incredible Teammates that don't have the most incredible mechanics, I felt that one had to go and to me it was Brawk but I don't want him to leave T1 yet. They are both interchangeable but this is my list. I think Mada, s0m and Tex would be nasty together if they all play at their best. Rossy over FNS because he can actually hit his shots, Rossy could improve a lot as an IGL with one of the greatest to ever call coaching him. My List, at their peak they could be quite dangerous, making decent runs at some internationals.

Full of Shit. This team is Shit but you would have to loose every single brain cell to say Purp0 and Westside are shit. On a good team these players would be one of the best.

Your right Brawk has not had much time in T1. I'm confident he is one of the few people coming from T2 that is an incredible teammate but when I was looking at the roster I thought I'm either keeping Ethan or Brawk for that "Not the most gifted mechanically yet just an incredible teammate" and I just went ahead with Ethan since he is a lot more proven. I think if Brawk could be the Flash Initiator it would work well as well, probably more sustainable in the long run. Rossy on the other hand I can be honest and say I took a liking toward him from Red Bull, after he got kicked by C9 I've been rooting for him and it seems like he does genuinely have the heart and he has always been quite gifted mechanically.

I do not watch FNS streams much but I do watch clips, if your confident that he has stated it well I will take your word for it too.

I think the bar is low for T1, Brawk is definitely a Good T2 player but a low tier player for T1. I would gladly let him prove me wrong since he is on a bad team but from what I've saw in T2 he does not have the greatest mechanics.

s0m said he wants to win with FNS and will leave when FNS leaves, I will give you credit about FNS not wanting to coach if you can give me a link for evidence because the only thing I have seen regarding it is that he has considered it, never have I seen him say he wouldn't.

Rossy has not been dropped Twice for personality issues, only once and he has even stated himself that he does not accept how he acted and that he was going through personal issues mentally, he deserves more than just that chance and you can see in the LEV comms he is really trying.

I can see Lev going back to a full LATAM team if they don't make an international this year. He can get picked up by EG but that can only happen if EG don't get there spot relegated for G2, if EG do stay I can see them picking up Demon1 and Tex, maybe Rossy. It would be sick seeing the two "Kings of Hell" yay and Demon1 on the same team, but would it work none of us can say.

I'm holding onto the sliver of hope that s0m wont be winless in his career because he is blessed mechanically. Probably the best Smokes in terms of mechanics dudes insane. Stellar is a respectable pick he has improved a lot since he was in 100T last.

Its Hard to find a Flash Initiator player in the current state of the game right now ngl, everyone coming up is selfish and he is a great teammate. Besides on a bad team its hard to look good, he is a world champion and looked great during the Off Season, he deserves more chances.

What is your ideas on how to fix NRG

My Thoughts

• Bench Brawk, he seems like a decent player but not enough for T1 right now
• Move FNS from IGL to Head Coach if he has the heart for it.
• Keep Mada, s0m and Ethan
• If they were Free Agents I would pick up Rossy and Tex, yes there are controversial right now regarding the current state of Leviatan but we cannot forget that Tex was the most mechanically gifted Sentinel Player last year and could reach those levels again with another good roster, Rossy seems like he has potential as an IGL especially if he has one of the greatest of all time coaching him like FNS, his performance in Red Bull is something I'm sure we all know about.

Not Simple Fixes but an Idea none the less.

I need Woot, Reins, Westside and Purp0 on the same team. They are in my opinion the players with the cleanest aim in the region. A tear would run down my leg if this impossibility happens.

I never said that it’s all that matters. All I did was say that Tomaszy was clearly not comfortable on Omen, yet it seems like you don’t understand that a winning team needs players that win individual fights to be good, Tomaszy wasn’t until the last few rounds on Yoru.

Loita is incredible, can’t wait for him to be on T1 next year.

Name one ill watch them

Just saw him go Yoru which is dope but if they wanted someone to be their Hardcore Omen Player they should have signed Sh1n.

Everyone is hitting shots. G2 might have more rounds than MIBR but it has been stretched thin since everyone is hitting clips

The Organization might not but Leo and Sayf are best buds, he is really the only person who knows what's going on with Leo consistantly.

Do y'all believe that when Leo returns he would want to stay with Fnatic? I Don't believe he will but I could be wrong. If he does where would you like to see him go? Personally I think if he were to go to Vitality that would be outrageous.

Don't get me wrong I was high on Asuna stocks going into this match because of his performance during Kickoff, but he's just pissing me off right now.

He hits insane shots like he did in Round 11 of Haven, but he cant stop overheating. He just cannot stop PUSHING! It pisses me off. If he would just take it and leave it 100T would be a much better team. Either put Asuna in check or bench his ass i cant anymore ngl

Bang is in the middle and I do not believe they would let him be there if he isnt.

My Predic

Jett (demon1
Waylay (King)
Viper (rossy)
KJ (tex
Sova or Tejo (c0m

Edit Fuck

If you told anyone during the playoffs of VCT Champions 2023 that Demon1 and Aspas would both be bottom fragging whilst playing against each other one day, nobody would believe it lmao.

Crazy

It’s not, she has nothing to help herself on the Dive. It’s statistically better to dive with Jett so why not run her instead, or have a double dive to give Waylay something to work with.

How do pro teams not realize that her capabilities as a Solo Duelist is worse than any other dive Duelist. I’ve never been above Diamond yet realized before and still do that she should only ever if be used as a Secondary Duelist. Yet teams (For granted only in China) are trying to push the narrative of this shit agent. All Gamers just got shit on 13-1 with Waylay, and XLG who were one of my picks to make it to Toronto decide to run Waylay with barely any ideas on Icebox and Fracture, with any other duelist they would have beat BLG, I digress.

XLG overcooked with Waylay, she is not good for a Solo Duelist. Put Rarga on something else and they will be great.
