How do you know they were European? Did you calculate their ping or what?
Yeah I would imagine that their budget wasn't massive and Scream/Nivera ate a lot of it. So its possible they weren't willing to pay Enzo's buyout and continue to negotiate with Fnatic.
I was wondering who is he talking about, but KC actually makes a lot of sense. They are the only team with somewhat questionable signings. I just wonder who will they be picking up if "the deals took too long". Were KCorp just slow or not willing to pay, or did it take long because of the players or org they are in? Considering that all the other orgs seemed to have finished their rosters before lock. Made me instantly think of imports.
It was team gap but feels like Malrang had pretty weak showing since week 2
At least his LFT tweet says that KOI is still considering him, but this might be new info.
Its just speculation. Watching their interviews etc Ardiis is clearly the loudest one with ANGE1 and seems to have strong opinions. Like when he talked about ANGE1 wanting to run Yoru and how he told him not to (in joking way). Nothing may change, but cNed seems to be pretty quiet quiet guy and he likely isn't going to say "no" to ANGE1's crazy ideas.
Depends on meta a lot. In my head I would say that NaVi are the strongest. They kept 4/5 players and coach and as long as cNed can perform to decent level I think they have what it takes. Especially if Jett is meta for Sao Paolo. We will just have to see how much of an impact Ardiis had as personality within the team. Seemed like Ardiis was the guy going against ANGE1's ideas. cNed seems to be the opposite of Ardiis in that regards. I also think their map pool was horrible during Champions and big part of why they lost. Its easy to fix though.
They don't just know how roles work(or worked) in Overwatch. If you are main tank playing Winston and Reinhardt mainly you don't need to have good aim. Only the introduction of Wrecking Ball kind of changed that (many tank players have good aim tho and can play dps high level). But tbh he also came early so I don't know would he had kept up with new talent. Many OWL S1 pros are long gone and washed. But yeah overall even to this day he can easily play GM level lobbies as main tank while many Valorant pros are struggling in plat.
Org maybe OG or BIG? Not dream team, but team made out of tier 2 and players who won't make VCT:
Roxie - initiator/IGL
MiniBoo - entry
7ssk7 - Chamber/Jett
Aslan - controller (maybe Zeddy, but IMO Aslan is really underrated)
Monsteerr - sentinel/flex
coach: Engh
I think this roster could be decent. I think 7ssk7, Aslan and Monsteerr are somewhat proven already and IMO Roxie is one of the better VRL IGLs(if he is IGL) and suits role wise and I didn't come with other entry player and MiniBoo is definitely one of the better entry players in tier 2. If Boo doesn't make franchising then I would take him.
No shit. But that is how it goes with majority of pro players.
Why isn't Famsii mentioned?
He will do fine. Also if Jett becomes meta FPX will become dangerous af.
Ofc it was going to be shit. I don't understand why people were calling him op and broken when the abilities were released. Overall he just doesn't suit many maps and there are better alternatives for him like Viper. Its really reactive agent in a way like Sage outside of defense and that's why I could see him played on some comps. I still think he could be really good on Ascent on some comps.
Rumored to Heretics.
keloqz, Mixwell(official) and Avova are pretty much confirmed and both zeek and Boo have been rumored.
Yeah its weird that he hasn't been connected to any franchising team yet. Guy is really good, smart and young as well. I guess his current role is just bit problematic, because some rumored rosters don't even have proper sentinel mains. Heretics is like the only EMEA team where he could find a spot from right now and even that is unlikely. Really hope some org decides to make Ascension "superteam" with likes of Monsteerr.
I mean they are partly acting as well. Its part of their brand. Wyatt is always hating on EMEA and that is just part of his character. And Bren usually does a lot of overreaction in comedic way. While Balla is pretty neutral nowadays, but used to be bit biased towards EMEA. And overall I feel like the only ones who actually watch EMEA at all are Sideshow and Balla(especially), so their takes are usually less biased because they know what they are talking about.
They look at C9 and praise it, but then question TL roles lol (both have role clashes and problems on paper)
I like PlatChat, but some of the members are just pretty biased and sometimes ignorant
maybe, but their map pool was shit and you can't deny that. Pearl being new on international stage was big reason for that. They always insta lost 1 or 2 maps during veto in BO3.
Just facts. They decided to perma ban Haven so that gave every team Pearl and Breeze that were terrible for FPX. They didn't expect to be shit on Pearl so that left their map pool really shitty. But that's wont be problem for next tournament because now people know how Pearl works and have seen international gameplay.
Only beat FPX because FPX's map pool was shit due to Pearl.
not fielding 6th man
aka they are signing woman as 6th likely
17 100T Sgares threads
man the north american community does not fuck around eh?
Wouldn't be surprised tbh. He even asked chat that to do they have higher expectations for SEN or 100T and he himself said that he has higher expectations from 100T. It can be just his opinion and random question and understandable as well, but maybe he was hinting that he is thinking of joining 100T as assistant coach. He seems to like that team quite a lot and maybe see potential with young players.
tbf Winston and Reinhardt doesn't require good aim. Its more about positioning and decision making
Yeah this season is pretty meh, but at least leaks say that next season will be the best this year.
I think they have potential. All comes down to how good Rhyme is as IGL.
Where is this from? Isn't KOI leaked/rumored already with Trexx. And wasn't nukkye potentially linked to Giants?
Couple of days ago Jamppi said that he is going to bootcamp next week so maybe even this week. So I would imagine announcement before that or after like 1st day if they want to film proper video.
Rumors say that both hoody and nukkye are going to join Giants. Also Pipson G2's headcoach.
I get your point, but this is by far the best they've had. Leo is best or 2nd best initiator in EMEA. And Chronicle is guy who was in contention for best in the world title not that long time ago. Like add those 2 to roster with superstars like Derke(still one of the bests) and Alfajer and you simply can't put this roster anywhere else than top on paper.
good game but I suck ass at Rocket League
Team of Boaster, Derke, Alfajer, Leo and Chronicle doesn't deserve to be high up? Okay.
This list is shit anyway. But teams like Fnatic and TL 100% deserve to be high up.
MENA owns the world and we are just living in it
Just need to take long breaks once in a while. I play actively like 1 month and then take like 1 month break, sometimes even multiple months. Even right now haven't played in couple weeks and returning now for Festival of the Lost event.
Trial isn't same as scrims. And I don't know what you mean with Enzo part? Leo plays same role anyway. Also did you see their plays? They would constantly do aggressive plays peaking out of garage etc. They are just testing new stuff against team that has played together for some time and who are still decent and can punish. Them being tier 2 or tier 3 or tier 4 doesn't change that they are a team. Team that goes in with 100%. Not really good look for Fnatic, but these games are like scrims for them. And I bet you good teams lose scrims vs tier 2/3 teams all the time. You won't see what makes tier 1 teams tier 1 in games like this.
Yes? The gap between tier 1 and tier 2 isn't massive and in BO1 anything can happen. Geekay had good aim, util usage and strats. Add to that that Fnatic was trying new roles and said they don't do any preparation but just focus on midrounding. Also I'm pretty sure they said they haven't even properly scrimmed with Leo yet if I'm not wrong. Its not huge upset if they lose 1 BO1 in random tournament. Remember Fnatic before last year Champions they were playing some random tournament and losing to random teams just to finish 1st in their groups.
