Coaches/Support staff is one of/or the most important part of building a good roster imo. 100T legit had a 180 with getting Sean and mikes and DDK. The guard grew to be insane with Mce, without a good coach/support staff you turn into Sentinels after masters 1, igl overworked and no set structure, and very reliant on individual skill.

I know you're mad cause your favourite team didn't make it but.

1. It's a partnership not franchising riot chose the teams they want to partner with its that simple nothing to do with skill. If someone had a better presentation for riot so they were chosen.
2. Players that are good at the game will be in the league its that simple.
3. The ascension league is essentially just like the vct qualifiers but orgs actually get more benefits than just making another qualifier for 1 lan, they get paid, more fans and apart of thr league for 2 years valorant has only been out for 2 years and it grew this much.

I also completely understand the annoyance of the tier 1 level players having to play in the ascension league because it'll only be 25 na pros in the America's so I understand why those pros may complain but if you're good at the game, you'll have a spot in my eyes.

I see a lot of pros/fans say that orgs or teams investing into the ascension league is not worth or makes no sense. Excluding the teams that genuinely like being in the game (tsm, knights etc.) But weren't these orgs investing into to teams to make Lan events through qualifiers, and more qualifiers for just 1 or 2 spots in a lan event 3 times a year. With the ascension league its essentially better for orgs because if they can invest in solid teams and make it to the partnership league. They get 2 years in the league reap the benefits of being in the league and their players play a lot more and generate fans for the next time they have to play the ascension league. Because when a team fails to make a Lan before the partnership they, wouldnt have anything to do anyway except knights weekly and nsg so what's the difference now?

I think bdog is also a honorable mention I think that guy is insane and he's only 19

They can go down 3 routes, 1. keep the same team with maybe one change 2. make changes to get younger and good players that'll have good chem such as bdog for example, with Asuna and Bang(think they should keep these two the most) 3. do a complete overhaul for experienced players such as optic with keeping maybe 1 or 2 players from the current roster. But i think sean and mike like coachable players that can be molded into top talent so I think they go the first route and maybe get 1/2 older experienced player in any role. But excited for the decisions the management.

The 100T roster are going to/should stick together if they make partnerships and take part in the tournaments after Champs.
Why? I had the realization that the team was built from scratch with a new coaching staff, new players and new roles and made it to an international Lan in 4 months. They have shown consistent improvement during that time and will hopefully get better. The only way I see a change in this team is if they want to get more clout for more viewership numbers for skins and such/ a very very good player is available that you can't pass on. The doubt on the players of the team mostly comes from Stat Andy's and haters. Will has shown great improvement and Asuna has had great impact in games on roles meant to support, still being the main entry on non-duelist agents. Stellar is underrated imo as a fragger and igl.

I think Asuna just is meant to be a duelist player he didn't have a bad game anytime he played duelist, except for the one map against c9. I could be wrong but his lows in terms of inconsistency isn't that bad compared to other players in his role currently. and I'm also a Will believer and think if they have the chemistry already just let him be the sole main opper and Asuna more duelist but I'm not a coach or study the game enough. Will had a really good last few games though only time will tell what happens with the team.

He's been good for his entire career I don't think one bad tournament means he's any worse, literally was the best LCQ player statistically wise, just switch him back to main duelist as it fits his playstyle the best, maybe get cryo/a really good impactful opper who can rifle as well and the team is good imo, or keep Will as mostly chamber op & some raze.

I totally get that, but you hate on them so much bro, when the players don't do anything but I understand.

I know your somewhat not serious, but why do you hate on teams instead of supporting the ones you like, I get that not everyone will be all supportive and crap but jeez

A year of ups and downs for the team and fans alike, but happy they made it back to the international stage, sucks to see them out in groups and this might be the last time we see this roster together. WIshed my favourite player Asuna was able to showcase his ability to be one of the best players and Derreck to have a better tournament but still proud and hope to see even more improvement for the entire team. Glad to see Will, Bang and Stellar get a chance and wish everyone on the team the best for the upcoming partnership league. GG

Damn, at least they made it back to international stage, but glad you got your satisfaction of seeing a team of great guys lose, who did nothing to you btw. Kinda crazy how much you hate them ngl.

They have the same amount of Lan experience. Alfajer is insane and respect to him. Asuna is also insane and respect to him. They may or may not have a rematch and we will see the winner.

All good better to have a bad day now, than later and more time to get practice and learn from their mistakes. Hope you get well soon also.

100T has an entire week to practice, prep and fix the mistakes they made in their map losses and even their wins. The last time they had a week for a lower bracket they won LCQ. I will always believe in my team and if they don't make it out of groups. What can you do every team is insane in Champs and they will show if they are a contender. You can roast the team and fans but this roster of 4 months made it to the international stage this year and I'm proud of that.

Right here kid on LAN. Idk where SEN at though.

The guy who won right?

4 100t players and both coaches tested positive for covid 4 days ago and are recovering atm. That is why they were absent from the press conference. Wishing them a speedy recovery. And best of luck tomorrow.

I get that but he doesn't have to be dominate in this team, because they don't depend on that one player having a dominate game, don't get me wrong all of those players are good but if chamber gets nerfed again, a lot of players won't seem as dominate as people think they are. They might replace him, they might not but the guy is on the team rn and everyday its a new thread of replacing the guy for something that 100T isn't even confirmed to be in yet, highly likely they will but just let the guy have fun and play.

Will only had a negative K/D in the first 2 games of the LCQ no? why is he being painted as extremely inconsistent he plays his role and has been solid as of late, for some reason for anyone else they focus on recency bias but for Will its always the past games not the recent ones. Tenz is a good player but to keep it 100 he doesn't fit in the 100T overall structure atm just based on his own personal stuff and playstyle, he's just seems to be meant to be on SEN imo, i could be wrong though. But just let Will play his game man not everyday a thread of replacing him needs to pop up.

I don't but it seems you do, but if you care this much about 100T fans overhyping their team when its all fun and games then enjoy your life man.

mb, and I never said he is and i really don't care who is the best and whatever i just enjoy watching Asuna and the team. and just don't agree with teh guy being a choker, everyone you named as had bad games and even a bad series and tournament. Its all opinion if people care or not. Enjoy your day though.

I haven't seen that, because i don't spend hours on this website if that bothers people then they got to chill, it's not that big. Any reasonable person just enjoys watching the team and think they can beat anyone, because they are just confident in their team other than that just not care its VLR not real life.

Bro, most 100T fans went from the bottom to now making it back to a LAN its not ego, they are just excited to see their team succeed atm, like any fan of a team that haven't been at a high level in a while. I don't even have that high of expectations and just want the team to have fun, but I'll still hype them up like they'll win the whole thing lol because it doesn't matter at the end of the day. It's fans of an esports team not that serious.

Kinda strange you're using only those two games, I'm not saying he's the best player but the guy isn't a choker for sure, its a team game at the end of the day and he played entry he isn't going to just frag every round. The last 2 stages this year he's been their best player and almost carried the team against FAZE in the second LAN qualifier and he and derrek had their best tournament this LCQ, guys opening the round for the team on every agent, but most people just recognize the clutching of derrek which is fair, but the guy isn't a choker bro.

Some of you vlr people got to realize its a team game not a diff match of one player, if the team trades does it matter who wins the first duel at the end of the day, he plays his role and has been solid, the team literally went 8 - 0 to finish off LCQ just enjoy the games win or lose.

The players don't need to diff anyone if they just play their regular game, Will didn't need to necessarily diff anyone in their lcq run, he just was solid that's all and the team was just flowing and hitting their stride. It'll just come down to if they get heavy jitters and get super nervous or not just a fun game for them

Honestly Fnatic have more pressure to win, obviously and 100T have like low expectations realistically so they can just go out there and have fun. If they play like the last week of LCQ, I can see them just being insane and not let the game be decided by player diff or whatever the smart play if you care about pickems is fnatic however. Experience diff.

"No hate just my opinion", proceeds to give a suggestion of replacing a core part of the reason they are in champs, Wardell is literally just a solid opper, and you have to play around this guy baiting and opping, just realize how annoying this will be for a player to read after literally qualifying for Champs.

Bro no, please stop just cause they guy is a better opper doesn't mean he fits the team, this crap is annoying to see.

They even got a first time coach in Sean, people are salty on this website lol.

From a team that everyone doubted and hated except fans and certain analyst, has grinded and made it to the final main LAN event. You can see the progress they made, shoutout Sean Gares, Mikeshd and DDk, especially Mike who was the main coach for a bit when Sean had some family stuff. Shoutout to players for buying in and believing in the team and themselves, they are insane. Lets go do the same in Champs boys. From the lowest of the low to making it back to the international stage. Happy for Asuna my favourite player been through a lot and just got better and became honestly the best player this LCQ. Derrek ad Bang being amazing throughout vct, everyone hating on Will and Stellar and them warming up and becoming great love this team.

If they run this Guard have to change their whole scheme of how they play defense and attack, and 100t switching to a duelist won't matter if they're against sage and Astra because the duelist would just be alone on the site while the team is stuck in a suck and slow or smoked off and then the space created would be meaningless. And if the duelist dies its all for nothing anyway.

Bro their comp literally counters guard if they play kj again it'll be fine. Have some trust in a team that put prep into what they do they run it for a reason.

They literally got 6 rounds against nrg and then 7 against C9 with c9 Starting defense. Relax they are fine that's a whole different roster even why does everyone think they are bad at attacking because 1 series

They were good but they faced a different level Guard in the first game than now and a 100t that made a lot more mistakes and lacked confidence than now, I don't think Sen are better than nrg c9 or Faze maybe c9 with more time but they were decent. They did open the eyes of Guard and 100T to become better though.

Bro why does everyone think they have a bad attack side ascent they literally got 6 rounds against nrg then 7 against C9, that Faze lost was legit just pop off and mistakes from 100t. They chose attack first cause they were overconfident and Faze attack side is pretty bad so they believed in their defense more.

Bro they are literally playing good rn, and what how do they even comm to the guy chill, these things its annoying everyday after the team literally won 3 series in a row.

They've had leads on Faze and couldn't close it out, I think they've reached a different level from when the LCQ started to now. I can see a 3-1 don't know why but I've called their lower run till now so sticking to my gut

LETS GOO 2-0 Asuna had his first bad game of the entire lcq and the team stepped up to have his back I love these guys 2 more 2 more.

Vanity is Will's little kitten so have to show out hopefully he does the same in map 2.

Then they wouldn't have an igl and the team would just be aimers and no structure and dapr now plays the same role as Asuna and derrek so won't make sense to do this unless they pick up a better igl along with Tenz or just keep the team the same and hope for individual talent to develop

They're a young group the only people with experience in high pressure situations is Asuna and derrek in terms of tier 1 and elimination matches. They have a mental coach I think so they'll get better

They are young they'll get better I hope I won't say give them time cause it's beena couple months but this is the second big event this team as played they'll struggle but vod review and learn is best for them

Not even going to lie 100T likes giving there fans heart attacks. But props to Sen limited time in prep and they came out and played great respect honestly. 100T threw a lot of rounds to close this out but Sen capitalized on them.

He's different

This duo have been so good this map jeez proud of them lets close it out now.

That is literally his normal aim bro he's played like this forever he isn't forcing anything just a little more nervous. Literally got an ace lets go

Yes he can speak in Korean, I think he streamed with munchkin a while ago and the both commed to each other in korean
