A couple months ago, Zikz and 100T put out an open call for coaching.

https://100thieves.com/pages/100-thieves-valorant-open-enrollment-coaching-staff?srsltid=AfmBOoozUultxiPf82KRBYeB0Ullzjt8SPw0CW67s-ijq_JndFNmygPt

I spent 2 weeks putting a tremendous amount of time and effort to create these two analysis reports:

100T Icebox
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zYRtRbyClNjJXx-vbA2X6s64IlaVGfhV/view?usp=drive_link

FNC Haven
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kE90FXjCtj_qaXCOp-j0pInVEdqL1KEz/view?usp=drive_link

Despite the effort, despite reaching out to Zikz two weeks after the deadline for any word, I was ghosted. Only to find out that your average VCT scouting/analysis report is 1/200th the size.

The reason I'm bringing this up is because I'm tired of seeing Nadeshot and 100 Thieves continue the narrative that they are trying everything they can. They simply are not. They are just continuing the one thing that has plagued esports, cronyism. The normal size of an analysis report in VCT is 1-2 pages. For a game that is supposed to be "TACTICAL" ... how do you fit a scouting report into one page?

How does Nadeshot and the 100T organization pay for such mediocracy when people put real effort into their applications? Esports needs to stop being a revolving door.

bro im sorry but if you think that players wanna finish 6 hours of scrims, 2 hours of server time, an hour of vod review then read your chatGPT masters thesis then you are hopeless

honestly id prefer that. The painful part with my team is that we have highs like stage 1 last year, but we are always the bridesmaid and never the bride. Hope Zeta win tomorrow :D

ok time to go back to coping for 100goats, we're winning stage 1!!!!

(I love torturing myself)

100t beat mibr a week ago and it wasnt close

posted 4 days ago

then they fell apart stage 2 and downgraded. look man i want you to be right but lets be fr this team is not winning an international and we both know it

posted 4 days ago

top tier teams dont make 1 event in 3 years. top tier teams dont choke 100% of the time. 100T is not a top tier team at all

posted 4 days ago

it doesnt matter how good the teams we lost to are, the expectation should be that we are better than them. If that isnt the case then changes need to be made

posted 4 days ago

the team has been "unfortunate" for years now, it isnt good enough

posted 4 days ago

I would rather them use this year to rebuild than accept being mediocre tbh, its better to have hope and be shit than know youre mid asf

I mean it would be wrong to tweet if he started hurling insults at the players, but he isnt exactly wrong that the team has been on a downward spiral since shanghai last year.

Honestly i think asuna needs to go, he is a good player but represents the problem that 100T has with accepting mediocrity and not demanding more.

Boostio is on thin ice, only reason he shouldnt go is because he has shown that he is good enough to make deep runs, but really needs to realise that the S in FPS isnt cosmetic, and that kills arent everything but they are something

Cryo is also on thin ice, although not as thin as boostio. he needs to pick a role and get good at it, either youre a smokes player or youre a duelist or a sentinel or whatever, but it is so much more difficult to build a good map pool when you have a guy that has no consistent role pool to choose from.

Zander should be given more time but his kickoff was shocking, anyone who says otherwise is coping for a fan favourite. His lurks had no impact, he was a major downgrade to the anchoring that bang gave last year. eeiu also started similarly poorly last year though so it is way too early to write him off.

eeiu only criticism is his limited agent pool, but idk if thats by his choice or coaching staff choice, because he said last year that he would play any initiator so idk if thats on him or zikz

controversial but i think zikz is a good coach, i like his comfort-first approach to the game but man it fucking sucks seeing how inflexible the comps can be. They played tejo on 1 map out of 8 in kickoff and beat SEN 13-4, so why arent we playing him on more maps? why are we still running the same comp and strats on bind that got figured out last year?

I have seen a lot of comments on nadeshots tweet and on this site saying stuff along the lines of "100T shouldnt make any changes because they lost to two teams who are top 3 americas"

I dont understand this mentality, shouldnt that be a reason to make changes? isnt the goal to be top 1 americas, and eventually win an international? why keep a team that cant qualify for internationals?

someone who thinks im wrong pls explain your pov :)

-Asuna + Rossy

lock cryo in a deep dark cold dungeon until he can play raze/neon

ok goodnight it is 5am :D

posted 4 days ago

75% of his kickoff maps were duelist moron, that makes him a duelist who can flex onto other agents

posted 4 days ago

he isnt even all that on raze, there isnt a single other team where you wouldnt swap your main duelist for him

posted 4 days ago

they still made a change and were better for it

posted 4 days ago

asuna plays great until he makes a dumb mistake or dies early or does some shit to throw a round

also stop liking your own comments you look sad

posted 4 days ago

bro they drop players all the time and still do nothing but the others cut players and got better eventually

posted 4 days ago

all im saying is that SEN cut dephh after he played shit

NRG cut demon1 and marved after they played shit.

EG dropped bcj for a promising rookie

G2 dropped neT for being mid

C9 are braindead

why does my fav team stick with a guy who cant keep up for years? surely it isnt good for his mental health either?

posted 4 days ago

nah he wasnt, genuinely forgot he was playing half the time

cant lurk, cant anchor

had a shit kickoff

thoughts on zander so far? imo he has disappointed through his first 7 maps

chamber and yay being a top tier anchor iirc

2g throwing kickoff just to give other teams a chance. too humble

league is the most popular esport and it does have a franchising system tho

posted 5 days ago

M8 were mid last year, BLD was shit, 2G are shit, apeks are shit. Im just saying having a wider team pool isnt necessarily better

posted 5 days ago

koi is valid but mibr just bought out a top tier duelist, they are at least trying to win even if they dont look amazing just yet.

Also the level of play is going up year by year regardless, teams now are way better than ever

posted 5 days ago

I have seen a decent number of people complaining about franchising because they prefer open circuit, but how is open circuit better? we have now seen 4/6 (i cant comment on china) of the ascended teams be mid to ass

surely having the old system would just mean there are more ass teams, and the best talent would be on teams with shit players (think XSET with Cryo and Zekken on the same team as ayrin and dephh)
