Possibly

Chronicle/Leo are probably going to fnatic like you said, but EMEA has a ton of great initiator players, I'm sure they can find someone. The main thing is that core of Jamppi, nAts, and Redgar which will POUND

If C9 pick up Sykko or Mce or ENGH as coach, they'll be unstoppable. As it is, coaching staff is their main deficiency rn imo

The only potential issue would be when chamber goes out of meta imo. Also I'm not sure who's picking up the sova/fade duties. Could be any of Leaf/Xeppaa/Zellsis tbh, but none of them are purpose built for that. I think Trent instead of Zellsis would make more sense but they're all incredibly flexible players who hard carried their respective teams, and I'm sure they'll do well together (if they can get Sykko as coach or something even better).

Yeah the loving shaz + wardell + sinatraa group is crazy

This guy is VLR's newest and "brightest" baiter, dw about him

JonahP ofc. That man can play ANYTHING

??? Why're you dickriding cody

Also nismo's far more relevant

My computer is still logged in, but my phone is that other one, and once I log out here the acc's gone for good

THEY'D DROP ASPAS AND LESS??? WTFFFF

Lmao he's mad abt ranked, that's not a pro player problem that's a standard valorant player problem

Only recently tho. They were the best NA team at champs in 2021

Think Cryo's better at flicking but Yay has better crosshair placement

Perhaps you should think about

How tf are people still calling Guard a fluke when they literally got 2nd in LCQ and beat everyone in NA except 100T that one time. They proved themselves in the end, and I'm really excited to see the players in franchising.

...edgar?

Switch trent and Zellsis and yeah I agree. C9 needs a sova/fade player more than another entry/kayo flex

I totally want Bang to stay, but idk if the folder leak was fake or not. Also the main reason they didn't go with yay is because yay didn't accept their offer or it wasn't as much money as C9. Lets be real, ANY team would take yay no matter the circumstances if he agreed to it.

I think Bang is probably gonna stay unless marved takes his spot (there was that 100T folder leak or whatev)

Alfa pounds tho, and you're basing trent's performance on two maps more than half a year ago

Sykko please

Israel: Isaax28 when he was on his superfakeflagging arc

True but also Skrossi >> both, so why are we even arguing about this

Sheahhhh I know you're a baiter, but there's no reason to act dumb abt this, that just makes you look bad.

Yes....because....they both play chamber in the current meta. Thus that's what we should compare them on

Groundbreaking for sure

Soar was a great incubating ground for some of the best players this year....then it died :(

Dude you can't be real. If you're so focused on ACS, lets look at ACS consistency (which is a better measure of a player's value than looking at 4 maps which happened more than a year ago).
Yay's past 90 day stats:

• 251.1 ACS on Chamber over 838 rounds
• 246.0 ACS on Jett over 47 rounds
  Of these rounds 393 were in Masters Copenhagen, and the remaining 492 were at Champions 2022 against the best teams internationally.

Tenz's past 90 days:

• 229.6 ACS on Chamber over 208 rounds
  All of which were in NA LCQ against objectively inferior teams compared to international competition.

Overall, Yay (not even including the tournament Optic flat out won earlier this year) is outperforming than Tenz in the metric you care about most while also facing much tougher competition. So yes, Yay is statistically better than Tenz.

Hoping this is a bait because

1. That was a year ago
2. He played 200 rounds, Yay played 492 at champs AND had a higher KD. Plus Yay played better than him in every event since.

Yay rn is the best player in the short history of valorant.

Sadly he kind of does

Will went stupid on LAN but Cryo's the second best chamber itw, it would be dumb to not pick him up.

Near the top isn't on top. If you're not in the top 3 NA, you're def not in top 3 world (which was your post). I'm not arguing that tenz is bad, I'm just saying he isn't the best ever.

Yeah I mean he went STUPID on lan much more recently than Tenz did

You were in the womb when that event happened, no way you can use that as a judge for modern valorant.
Besides, is this crazy? https://www.vlr.gg/event/stats/1130/champions-tour-north-america-last-chance-qualifier

Tenz is good no doubt. But he's not as good as Yay/Cryo on chamber and Zekken/Saya on entry (and that's just in NA).

Tenz over Derke, Alfa, Chronicle, Zekken, Aspas, Buzz, is crazy

If it's like the replicants from blade runner, hell yeah. They're literally people there's no difference except sometimes their eyes go funky.

Who's the other one in your opinion? Saadhak?

Absolute cap, even loud respect him immensly. His midrounding is the best in the world even if his mechanics aren't all there.

the next gen trembolona copypasta for the modern post-franchising VLR world

BRACE YOURSELVESSSS

oooo we get to see franchising rosters maybe?

Crashies is also a package deal with victor, and C9 doesn't need another entry (unless they keep him as 6th man)

Cryo and Yay are probably getting offers from every team in NA + most of EMEA + half of APAC rn. They're not strapped for options.

I care :)

Even with sick they will not be a strong competitor in a league of superteams. At least not without a very good coach (which rawkus is def not)

Some dude named austin tbagged idk

Yes but not a competitor with the best yk?

Net has always been insane. All the guard players are super underrated and we're gonna see most of them in franchising for sure.

Exactly, because franchising is condensing the number of spots drastically, every team will be a "superteam". That means players with great soft factors but lacking in firepower will be less considered in the future, enzo being one of them.

Nukkye isn't a better midrounder lmao, but he would bring insane firepower. Idk who'd play raze tho when you have Alfa, Derke, AND Nukkye on the team.

He was a beast in LCQ but that wasn't a repeatable and consistent performance for him. Just like Shao at copenhagen.
