Honestly pretty solid, I think like 1 week practice and limit testing some comps and a good tournament to see what works and doesnt work. Mistakes that they wont necessarily see in scrims compared to matches that will help develop the team a lot. Genuinely think this was a good tournament for them to play in and learn. I like the chamber pick on most maps but felt like Cryo barely oped same with timotino actually I have to re-watch but cryo on different sentis and viper opens up their development on defense and attack more imo. And that was like Asuna's 4th game on omen.

Vora is the IGL.

My guess is they committed to Nbs, mostly to poach Timotino even if they win ascension to basically have that locked up.

My guess: Mostly cause I really like those 3 core guys and want them to win a trophy together. Cryo or eeiu switching roles, and having Asuna on the secondary/flash support role basically Ethan role on old eg and his more preferred/best role currently.
Cryo
Asuna
Timotino
Vora/Zander
Eeiu

Yeah 100t needs to beat kru and sentinels lose to Loud or 2G and they will be one game from Masters Toronto

He's a really good space-creator for sure like he just knows how to open up the site for his team, and to get traded.

I've been a 100T fan since 2020 been here through the highs and the lows but after this season it's best to drop the entire roster and build from scratch new coach new younger players legit just a total rebrand. This org is either cursed or something just not right Cod superteam came 4th after winning 7 straight games, league first seed look great gets 3 - 0 in finals apex we'll see rivals is the only thing good so far and even now I'm worried they'll lose. But valorant this is the last season all these players are together if they don't figure out how they want to play this game after months of practice. No kind of chemistry or consistency.

100T would've made champs if they just won against furia/loud, or just not choke against kru. Truly sucks being able to predict a 100t season every year. Attend 1 international event get my hopes up lose out, then get close to making a next international event and just lose in a close game to qualify. Then reddit/vlr roast the players and a billion fix threads and drop Asuna threads. This was probably the best season in awhile and I believe this team has the potential, but need to work on finding consistent ways of winning than relying on if our aim is good to triple hold or re-clear areas dry. Just make the game easier for themselves.

Idk why g2 just grouping up at a specific spot and contact up annoys me, like if a team doesn't wide-swing into them, its pretty readable. I could be wrong though. Like they just 3 man walked up hookah/long like 7 rounds.

oh damn

Just realized these grand finals actually mean a lot other than seeding, like in Americas for example if g2 or 100t win, they go up to 9 circuit points tying Sentinels for first. If 100t or g2 don't win shanghai they just need to win like 2/3 matches during split 2 to guarantee a champs spot. That's actually huge, same with Fnatic and Heretics jumping to first, GENG basically qualifying. FPX and EDG basically locked anyway.

or right yeah

100t gets the first seed if KRU wins a map against LEV?

Asuna on Bind against NRG in the VCT upper semi finals like 3 years ago, the ace clutch after that i became a 100t fan .

You guys need to put in perspective that he is the secondary caller now, he arguably has the most experience on the team with playing with 4 great callers and mid rounders with steel, nitro, hiko, Ethan the only problem he has is over comming for his teammates like counting there 1,2,3 peeks that could mess them up but he gives the right call knows his teammates utility and ults and when to use them the guy is only 20 he's the second youngest on the team, but just been around the longest so it's easy to dogpile

He gotta raise his sens back up, idk his inconsistency has become worse with a lower sens, but he really isn't bad, just has to fix his inconsistent tendencies, idk how he can though.

https://twitter.com/Zikzlol/status/1713087661567836401?t=_B_D4zH8AfzKuPM8fxFGMA&s=19 prac starts back Monday so roster finalized soon I guess.

If 100t can't get Boostio because EG are EG, honestly think Leaf should be in the conversation, may sound crazy but if they get leaf he basically plays everything and is a smart player, instead of going for someone that doesn't necessarily elevate the team with their calling and are subpar individually because zikz is probably going to have a system and stratbook anyway. It won't happen because still need that igl figure within a team but just a thought.

Just an offensive strategic coach and they'll be fine Asuna said they were trying to get a coach during the season but none of the teams they asked budged. and they only lost to NA teams + Loud and just quite frank disappointed against MIBR

coaching imo Mike being the only coach sets them back with ideas, but they are starting to win so consistency is the problem

Yeah thats why I said Mike being the only coach truly limits them.

In relations to calling the team no longer has a set strat book anymore its just a Stellar call and a weird default, that ascent Asuna and Cryo mid rest of the team A main was so strange to me. Cryo has also been in a slump since the end of Red bull. To be completely honest I don't think its the fault of any of the players tbh the load Mikes carries should not be on him as the only coach and a lcs analyst they flunked the offseason imo in terms of staffing. They are probably not playing at the same level that they do in scrims, but the lack of structure is concerning to say the least and they just don't use utility to clear anything consistently anymore its just hope for the best run at them hopefully they aren't in a corner or have pushed out sometimes. They just hit a wall they still win this series hopefully.

Its meant to help with retakes and overall ideas they have for the map, he's in a position to help the team in a different way than fragging i think its fine and the map is out of rotation in a couple months anyway

No roster changes just comp changes and Fnatic straight up a team of raid bosses better team rn but they also need more strats since they are on the fly calls vs strat book calls when Sean was on the team, 100T is a great squad they'll develop fine. Also the Asuna hate is insane and the Expectations haters have on the guy playing Sage on icebox is mental imo.

100T are going to play the best they have ever played for the remainder of the tournament. LCQ level of just clicking as a team.

I love this esports team and they got me into valorant cod league apex etc. but why do they have to always have intense and close games like blowout a team for once please, like my heart is not built for this team

No they are just human. You people just pick and choose when to hype up players and then switch up if they underperform some games. Both of these players are some of the best in the world chill.

What are you even saying, cause I never hated on shahzam, so what's the point of saying this, not everyone goes on the internet to hate on players. and don't say because I'm a 100T fan I magically hate Shahzam all of a sudden.

You're the one on the Internet hating bro so doesn't seem that way and holding grudges for people you don't know.

Aren't you the same guy clingy unto hate for 100t, for something between players that happened 2 years ago? And the said players aren't on either team now. At least Asuna accomplished something idk what you doing.

1. Asuna has a magnet for his head.
2. Cryo is insane
3. Asuna even when he has a bad game rarely has single digit kills.

100T
DRX
TL
Fnatic
C9

Its better to practice a map and get better than just making a map be a perma-ban especially since its the off-season and the tournament is for practice instead of focused on just winning plus zander said their ascent is good in practice, imo they just need to work on it for matches.

He's been playing amazing so far, hope it sticks.

Last time he streamed was last month, vod reviewing xerxia vs bleed

I think the assistant coach will be Jamezirl former c9 head/assistant coach, could've just been helping them out but he was in a custom with them the first day of practice and also both him and mike have similar mindsets and he can bring new ideas to the team. Just speculation though and could've just been a one time thing, 6th player could just be Hiko/a player that has good ideas but doesn't want to play to fill the spot, or similar to c9 just have the analyst be that position but they are using the LoL team's analyst team so doubtful on that.

I agree with this partially cause Sean came up with the strats and offense calls for the team but Mike's did a lot for the team from booking scrims player development and the defense side of the game aswell, the team will be just fine imo idk why people think a team with some of the best players in their respective roles will be bad, could just be because they're on 100T and people hate the team for some reason.

Bro hope you know Mike's was the head coach of Berlin envy before they didn't resign him and discipline doesn't magically go away with a coach leaving. Think you're heavily doubting a really talented team

He's good at the game.

Think most 100T fans respect Mike, I wanted him on the team since envy let him go and he is very supportive of the players and know the team will be great.

Guy has a family and being a pro coach and moving to LA is a lot for anyone to commute to and he misses doing content which is respectable.

Mike is a great coach, he was the envy coach when they played against gambit masters Berlin. And engh and sliggy are possible maybe.

I think a teams 6th should be an analyst type player/igl type player that can help the team in other ways other than playing, so they aren't just sitting on the bench doing nothing, like qpert for c9 and boi on the old 100T roster, or getting a young player that can step into a role if a starter player is slumping/needs a mental break.

Nothing. The team will get better playing together no changes.

Think you're underrating stellar and derrek and overrating the value those others bring in some way. Like you have to realize what 100t did in 5 months time with lower known talent other than Asuna. Trent I guess would've been a somewhat upgrade but think you'll be surprised by how well the team plays with just the addition of cryo. Picking up big names don't always improve a team. Imo

Doubt Optic stays in valorant, other than that, thats the point of the ascension league is to provide quality games when the partnership games aren't running and to have valorant year round basically, teams should definitely invest in teams for it imo. If there is prize pools it'll make it more worth for teams but still will be solid.

Bang will be staying with the team and is not getting replaced. Asuna and Him are basically a package deal at this point and if one leaves they both will probably be gone, so yeah. Source: Asuna's stream around the start of it. The roster is basically set other than a 6th man and they might start practicing in a few weeks maybe.

That's just how people on this site work, player doesn't put up insane stats in 1 tournament and they're all of a sudden overrated or bad and worse than a player who had their first good tournament. They don't realize how hard these players work, and just see recent stats and base it off that.

He may just want to do more sponsorship deals since he's streaming more and also renegotiate his current contract to fit the league standards. He may have been making below the minimum of 50k.

Zekken isn't better than Asuna. And 100t won't replace Asuna. Their team is perfect as is and stellar is doing a great job.

I don't think dephh for stellar is that good imo. Stellar is better mechanical and has already made it to a lan and he's not a bad igl in the slightest and actually comes up with a decent amount of ideas for the teams playbook, think he's underrated for his igl abilities just because he has good coaches.
