Can we please get a flair for Xi Lai Gaming? It feels wrong not being able to rep them, especially considering they just won Ascension and will be part of VCT CN in a few months.
s0m has duo'd with pretty much everybody at some point
MAGNUM did the same thing this season https://www.vlr.gg/297403/team-heretics-vs-karmine-corp-champions-tour-2024-emea-kickoff-winners-a/?game=156079&tab=overview
The only source I found was vspace so I'm gonna assume it was a leak and not an announcement
Oh I'm STUPID as hell I thought they were on Ascent 😭
No way. Did I miss that? How many people has FURIA dropped?
Why'd you get banned again?
Wait I didn't realize both teams were running solo Viper... I thought you couldn't do that. Gonna have to watch the VOD to see how they played it
This guy has no credibility other than being verified on VLR, as far as I'm aware. I tried looking him up and the only result I found was his VLR page
Not sure if it'd work because nAts and sheydos are both sentinel players now, and even if sheydos plays flex that's already what Chronicle's doing
They did NOT play Jett Reyna Gekko Clove Sage
Alright, let's run a test
Everyone reading this: downvote if you're Indian, upvote if you're not. I'll check back in an hour
What comp did their coach come up with? They played the DRX Lotus comp, the 100 Thieves Bind comp, and the Apeks Ascent comp
I'm pretty sure he's Singaporean but ok
My picks were The Ultimates, All Knights, Xi Lai Gaming, and RIDDLE ORDER. I got 4th, 3rd, 1st, and ?th, which isn't bad at all
Then I'd probably drop him for Kr1stal, now that he's a free agent
(Nothing against skillZ, btw, he's just who I'd start with if I was looking to upgrade)
Edit: now that I think about it, actually, I might drop SkRossi for a sentinel instead. That would make more sense, wouldn't it?
Soccer is taken from the "soc" in association. The term "association football" was first used in 1863, and it was shortened by some to "soccer" in the 1880s to avoid confusion with rugby football
Bump!

First roster move from an Ascension-winning team
It was that hot all of last week, but now that we're getting rain again it feels like autumn
The first association football match was played on December 19, 1863
The first American football game was played on November 6, 1869
I went outside and it was autumn, I think this is a sign that they're buying out Autumn from FPX to replace leaf
Dude they're frying so hard. Makes me wonder why there's no Kazakh rep in tier 1
Saadhak joined Karmine Corp. He's playing with ENGH, as well as marteen and a bunch of very promising tier 2 talent
True
bang isn't bad where is this idea coming from
His comfort role is Sova but he's a very very good duelist and I very much doubt that kaplan will have him play anything else (let alone smokes)
Brazil has igls, though. MIBR has mazin, FURIA has nzr, 2Game has Zap, LOUD might look to have cauanzin igling because he was doing quite a bit of that in Split 2, and heat is a restricted free agent if anyone wants to pick him up. Also if your region's best talent it young talent, then that's a very good thing
kiNgg is a great igl, and as far as I'm aware C0M does a good amount of midrounding (I could be wrong about that latter point, though)
If they do want to make a change then I'd probably drop skillZ and buy out Zest from BLEED (unless skillZ is their igl, because I'm not sure who it is exactly)
I don't see a world where FNC and Less are interested in each other
Potter has already been seen in leaked trials, so it's very likely she's the one trialing new players and therefore isn't leaving EG
bang is not a bad controller by any means, in fact he's very good at his role
zekken was easily a top 5 duelist last year in most people's eyes so I find it hard to imagine he's switching off the role, especially to controller
Brazil is not cooked
Why would LEV replace kiNgg?
This guy is unreal. Revenant have played 6 maps so far in Ascension. He's had the highest R²∙⁰ in 4 of them, and the other 2 were both 13-3's where he dropped over 230 ACS. In the tournament so far, he's got the highest ADR, the 3rd highest ACS, the 3rd highest HS%, and the 3rd highest R²∙⁰ (tied with dos9, who's just as insane).
Remind me never to ask you for math help
Props to you for having the courage to speak up about this kinda thing. I know quite a few people who would just sulk in the shadows and wait for it all to end
I have no insider info whatsoever but I'm just gonna go ahead and assume the biggest reason was Potter
No offense to you personally but I hate your reasoning
Because he has a contract, for starters
