Lakia didn't achieve nothing for 3 years with top korean rosters and he won a Masters. Players don't get trophies because they're good individually, they get trophies because they have a good team. And your statement is a lie as well, Jamppi has made deep runs with Liquid and even won the EMEA league

Not mad at all, I would remove them too, but this is not better than their current roster. The core Keiko nAts and Jamppi works just fine, but whatever this roster you put together is, wouldn't achieve even top 5 of EMEA. And there's quite literally no reason to kick Jamppi if they're happy to have him, it's not like his the reason Liquid is losing

Getting rid of their best player and flex surely is not an upgrade

You managed to make it even worse

I got into Valorant Esports right after Champs 21, I was a Mixwell fan at that time, so I was cheering for G2. Then I found out some stuff Nukkye said on Twitter (can't really remember what) that I didn't like, and when they faced Fnatic at the lower final of the EMEA Challengers Stage 1 2022, I just thought "fuck it, I just want them to lose now"

I cheered for Fnatic that game, and I discovered Boaster, so I became a fan of him right away. I was just a casual fan until they announced Chronicle, so I became a Fnatic fan since then, bought the jersey and all

If Boaster ever leaves is because he retires. I doubt they drop him

This roster will probably be like Astralis, 5 players capable of winning championships, but falling short

1. TEAM HERETICS
2. NATUS VINCERE
3. FUT
4. KARMINE CORP
5. FNATIC
6. TEAM VITALITY
7. TEAM LIQUID
   8.GENTLE MATES
8. BBL
9. KOI
10. GIANTX

Don't think so, he says that he still wants to compete. But he himself recognizes that his mechanics and age are holding him back as a player. If Fnatic do bad this year and next year, I think that he might retire to pursue content creation or coaching

If he ever retires, Chronicle can take his spot as an IGL and Hiro could replace him

Either way, I'm so fucking happy for Hiro, he deserves a shot in tier 1 more than anyone. This kid is the future of VCT EMEA

I'm so happy for this guy. He deserves a shot in tier 1 more than anyone right now. I hope that this goes well for him

Beard and weight makes you look older

I've seen some people arguing whether G2 should bench Icy for Demon1 or not

If you gave Demon1 the Jett and Leaf/Trent the Raze on certain maps, I could see it working somehow

Demon1's Jett>Icy's Jett but Icy's Raze>Demon1's Raze (even though Icy is not really that great with Raze)

G2 Demon1 sounds clean though, I fw it

2.5/10 bait

Not too bad for first post, maybe some of Chet blaming and more Marved glaze would make it more believable

I think that the typos and the emoji gave it away for me, lots of work to do

Make up an IGL, it worked for Heretics, Karmine Corp, and Vitality

My vouch is Jamppi, he's been in Tier 1 Valorant since day one, he could be a really good leader, and he learned from the best. Though I think that he needs a better coach to go through this process

I think he'd stand up really well in leagues like Spain, France, or DACH

If he goes back to Liquid I think that he should replace Enzo and stick to only the initiator role

It's a good moment for Soulcas to join. I think that gaining confidence is what he needed, he's way too good to play in tier 2

It would be cool, but Valorant really needs to upgrade the franchise system

Maybe just go with something similar to the ESL Pro League formula and go with 15 partner teams and 9 open qualifier teams

My perfect lineup for EMEA is adding V.P, Spirit, BDS, MOUZ, and maybe ENCE

kamyk, hiro, zander, alexiiik

They were also the top russian team in every game they touched

Bro imagine if we had fucking Virtus.pro, Team Spirit, FaZe, or MOUZ in franchise

There was something that definitely didn't click in DA. He looks much better playing in SK now

Sixth man* He's a player for SK Gaming in the DACH league at the moment. And looks they are doing much better since qpert joined

This guy is really good, and it seems that he contributes a lot to a team as the IGL (gives me vibe merchant vibes)

Wonder if teams like Liquid, KOI, GX, or even VIT could sign him for 2025

Thoughts?

Aspas (5) for duelist
Leo (5) for initiator
Trent (2) for flex
Tomaszy (2) for sentinel
ScrewFace (1) for controller and IGL

Having Trent and Tomaszy at 2 dollars should be a crime

A tournament is a tournament

So you're tellin me they ARE winning champs

So Fnatic has never lost 2 tournaments in a row since 2023

VCT 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo - 1st place
VCT 2023: EMEA League - 2nd place
VCT 2023: Masters Tokyo - 1st place
VALORANT Champions 2023 - 4th place
Red Bull Home Ground #4 - 1st place
VCT 2024: EMEA Kickoff - 3rd-4th place
VCT 2024: EMEA Stage 1 - 1st place
VCT 2024: Masters Shanghai - 7th-8th place
VCT 2024: EMEA Stage 2 - ? place
VALORANT Champions 2024 - ? place

Does this mean that Fnatic will win Stage 2 only to choke again in champs? Too many questions

Does it matter? No one will remember the placements of the teams below 2nd place in a month

If you don't accept a black koren as a korean then maybe you just have prejudices

If you think that your skin color and race defines your nationality, you're not looking at the bigger picture m8

If you have asian blood, but you were born in the USA, and you've lived in the US your whole life, I hate to break it to you, but you're 100% american

The USA is BUILT by and for immigrants. Even the blonde and white guys you probably mean, have blood from immigrants

Zekken
Cryo
Ethan
Boostio
Trent

(And Potter if coach needed)
