Make your dream team from NA players. Here's mine:
TenZ (Jett/OPer)
SicK (Duelist/Flex)
Crashies (Sova)
nitr0 (IGL/Flex)
Ethan (Smokes)
beb0p [#5]Maybe a good cypher/killjoy player like steel or dapr to replace sick or nitr0
i agree, maybe a steel for nitr0 or dapr for nitr0, maybe even FNS
greedeetv [#7]FaZe Babybay (Jett)
IMT Shot Up (Reyna/Phoenix/Raze/Breach, could also put TenZ in this spot.)
NV crashies (Sova)
LG aproto (Cypher/Raze)
100T nitr0 (Omen -- I know Ethan is doing it now but he definitely still can. I think Ethan could also fit into this spot, 50/50 for me.)
AGREED
SicK is 100% in for me as the flex and 'support duelist' kind of player. Most consistent player across all the region and with a huge agent pool (Phoenix, Breach, Skye, Sage, Sova, Raze...).
Main duelist would probably be for TenZ or Shot_Up for obvious reasons.
Main Sova player for Crashies. He's on a roll. Also huge numbers with Skye on Split.
Aproto or Dapr for Cypher/KJ player
nitr0 for Omen and IGL
Rizvi [#14]Hear me out!
If Sinatraa was sane imagine this squad:TenZ (Jett)
SicK (Phoenix)
Sinatraa (Sova)
Dapr (Cypher)
Subroza (Omen)Agro Phoenix/Jett, Clutch Phoenix/Sova, Lurking Cypher/Omen. Dude this is fireeee.
basically sentinels?
bigpeensheen [#16]TenZ or Asuna
Crashies or Hiko
Food
nitr0
aproto or steelI feel like this team frags out, no matter which agent they play
I like this, but I think food is a bit inconsistent, and I could maybe replace him with sick, android, or Corey

No offense, but why dapr. He isn't even on my list of top 3 cypher. Is it cuz of synergy with other players? Why didn't you just put zombs then.

From this list, I would guess you’re a 100T fan lol. I tried my best to keep my TSM bias out of my list.
WitLitning [#21]TSM Wardell
LG aproto
NV food
NV crashies
Some smokes player idk
ethan or nitr0 for smokes prob
beb0p [#24]ethan or nitr0 for smokes prob
I would say Subroza but he’s so damn inconsistent. He has some of the best aim I’ve ever seen, but he’s PAINfully inconsistent. Right now I’d take nitr0, but we’ll see how Ethan turns out.
WitLitning [#22]From this list, I would guess you’re a 100T fan lol. I tried my best to keep my TSM bias out of my list.
Nah, I actually am a big fan of TSM, I like 100T, don't get me wrong, but I just feel like this team will do good, and besides, 100T individually are great
beb0p [#18]I like this, but I think food is a bit inconsistent, and I could maybe replace him with sick, android, or Corey
tbh, i see why you would replace food with android, sick or corey, but Food is still pretty good, but i would replace him for android and only him, since i feel like android is his perfect equal
WitLitning [#25]I would say Subroza but he’s so damn inconsistent. He has some of the best aim I’ve ever seen, but he’s PAINfully inconsistent. Right now I’d take nitr0, but we’ll see how Ethan turns out.
facts
greedeetv [#19]No offense, but why dapr. He isn't even on my list of top 3 cypher. Is it cuz of synergy with other players? Why didn't you just put zombs then.
i would put steel in place of dapr
bigpeensheen [#26]Nah, I actually am a big fan of TSM, I like 100T, don't get me wrong, but I just feel like this team will do good, and besides, 100T individually are great
I liked 100T until they started destroying TSM every time they play. It’s embarrassing.
everyone has steel or nitro as their igl, and yes they're great players, but the best igl in all of NA is Shahzam. there is absolutely no debate to that. FNS comes in at a close second but there is only one team who has won CONSISTENTLY across all of NA, and that's Shahzam. Plus he's a better fragger than FNS. Nitro and Steel had great CS careers but their only accomplishment rn is winner of First Strike. as of now, their team is heavily struggling
bigpeensheen [#30]i would put steel in place of dapr
Is that for his IGL abilities? I typically see Steel bottom fragging, but maybe I’m missing something.
Does aproto IGL? aproto is something special. I remember watching him drop 36 kills, including an overtime ace, against SSG on Bind (I forget which tournament). He’s been in a slump recently.
EDIT: 38 kills (cypher btw), and it was during First Strike.
FNS (IGL)
sick (duelist/support)
tenz (entry)
bcj (sova)
nitr0 (smokes)
you could easily make teams with more fragging power but im not really focused on that. FNS is a solid IGL, but i think the shotcalling system would be best if it were somewhat less centralized, with tenz and nitr0 calling some plays. i chose FNS to IGL over steel because steel micromanages his team a bit too much for the hybrid IGL system to work. tenz and sick have been an incredble duelist duo. sick always seems ready to trade out tenz. i cant see any of these guys being switched out for someone like asuna or babybay because of their synergy. not only that, tenz could fill the OP role. bcj is just a criminally underrated player who is great in clutches and duels, although depending on his playstyle and personality, i could see him being swapped for one of the million cracked sova players. nitr0 is in there for having some of the best utility usage of any NA player, and he can also frag/clutch consistently. this is also probably the best tilt-proof team i can come up with

get hiko out of here lol. he doesn't deserve to be on the list, especially with how's he's been playing recently
Seldruddd [#41]I thought steel igled on 100 thieves?
however nitr0 was the igl for Team Liquid in csgo when they were the best team in the world, so yeah, he is a good igl
Slotthyduke [#39]get hiko out of here lol. he doesn't deserve to be on the list, especially with how's he's been playing recently
I only watch Hiko when 100T plays TSM, so to me Hiko plays like a fucking god. Fuck that guy lol. Fanboy speak only ofc.
Slotthyduke [#39]get hiko out of here lol. he doesn't deserve to be on the list, especially with how's he's been playing recently
sorry hiko fanboys. but you all know he's been bad recently LOL. your sova is the ultimate baiter.
Slotthyduke [#46]sorry hiko fanboys. but you all know he's been bad recently LOL. your sova is the ultimate baiter.
there is some truth to this thou he is clutch but not a fragger baits a lot
Slotthyduke [#46]sorry hiko fanboys. but you all know he's been bad recently LOL. your sova is the ultimate baiter.
I'm not fan of Hiko, but the thing is he is one of the best clutchers in NA. He doesn't frag but with this team he isn't obligated too, yeah you want him to get kills and do well on your team but the fragging power on the entries and smokes on the team I made is really good, even Aproto can frag.
Lofibeats [#49]Shazham(sova/breach - igl)
JcStani(omen)
BabyBay(jett)
Dapr(sen)
Food(phoenix)No steel for sen bc feels like too predictable with 100T, also dapr is cool imo
I don't get why people keep putting dapr. He's not bad, but he's not one of the best cyphers in NA. He has decent aim, but only shines when he's having a good day and the rest of his team is fragging. FNS, aproto, KOLER, nature, curry, steel all better in my eyes (maybe not nature and steel as much).
greedeetv [#52]I don't get why people keep putting dapr. He's not bad, but he's not one of the best cyphers in NA.

I feel like dapr is good when his team is doing good, and is still pretty consistent otherwise. Also the teabags inflict mental damage lol
Edit: If not dapr then naturE. He's pretty good
winner123 [#54]FNS (igl/cypher)
babybay (jet)
tenz (2nd duelist/reyna most likely)
sinatraa (sova)
sicK (can flex to smokes or anything really)
sinatraa lolololol
WitLitning [#31]I liked 100T until they started destroying TSM every time they play. It’s embarrassing.
yea, TSM needs better results or someone is getting cut

Because people are not looking at just fragging but how he performs his role which from an outside observer point of view is hard to tell and definitely not reflected in the scoreboard. If you have tuned into some of sen's interviews you would hear how much credit ShahZaM gives to the information that dapr provides which helps them approach each round and get the reads which wins rounds for them. This is why I think FNS is also a great Cypher but I'm not a huge fan of saying 'Aproto is the best Cypher in NA' because a lot of what makes him good is not directly tied to Cypher or how he uses that agent, he's great at clicking heads. There's a reason plat chat or other analysts are high on the dapr train, he's an intelligent player.
WitLitning [#25]I would say Subroza but he’s so damn inconsistent. He has some of the best aim I’ve ever seen, but he’s PAINfully inconsistent. Right now I’d take nitr0, but we’ll see how Ethan turns out.
If he plays like he did in challengers 3 I'll take him over ethan or nitr0 any day
bigpeensheen [#57]yea, TSM needs better results or someone is getting cut
They need roza back on duelist and put cut on sentinel and hazed on smokes and then drone on igl/flex and of course keep wardell on awp

good take. i think aproto is an amazing player but what makes aproto such a good player is his head tapping ability and not aproto as a cypher.

I almost went Koosta or Aproto for Cypher, but Dapr was huge in the grand finals. Impressed me.
Jail_Sweat [#74]I almost went Koosta or Aproto for Cypher, but Dapr was huge in the grand finals. Impressed me.
True, but mostly he's piggybacking off of teammates. He doesn't have a lot of standout games, even though he can.

Lol, Hiko fanboy or something? You're putting Crashies on defensive team really? Like have you ever seen him play for Envy? He's the best NA Sova player without any doubt.

100T nitr0 (Omen -- I know Ethan is doing it now but he definitely still can. I think Ethan could also fit into this spot, 50/50 for me.)
Ethan has very crisp aim, so he's doing well on Omen. As a omen player he's not even near to the best in NA. He's still not fast with his omen smokes I guess.
