nAts new team investigation/speculation

nAts is streaming right now and something I noticed:

  • He seems to be playing on new setup. Walls seem to be same color as his own setup, but did he have the time to return to home and change desk position?
  • He also has a new chair. The shape of it is different. Its also covered with a blanket meaning that they are likely trying to hide team branding. Based on the shape it seems like the chair is from Secretlab. Team Vitality is sponsored by Secretlab(like many tbf) while KCorp for example isn't. And Vitality has their own branded Secretlab chair.
  • He is also playing Frankfurt servers with <20 ping while in his actual setup he has <60 ping based on 2 games I checked on his stream.
  • He has confirmed that he is in Paris because of the IG picture.

so if he was there just for vacation, why would they have a setup ready for him? Everything points out that he is going to spend more than couple of days there. Its early, but maybe team like Vitality wanted to build a team with him being in the lead or already trialing new players. Just speculation because its interesting.

No harm intended, just speculation. Do not go and harass the player with questions or comments. That wasn't the point

He just said the vacation thing because he can't say the real reason. For sure he will be signed for a French franchise org

Its possible. But again something that I noticed:

  • nAts setup doesn't give any hints for the location. Team Liquid has their European HQ that looks nothing like the room nAts is in. And on top of that Liquid has apartment rooms for their players that are bootcamping there. But to my memory those rooms have white walls for what I've seen, but in nAts case the walls seem to be slightly greenish. That is why it looks bit like his own setup. So why would Liquid put him in another hotel room or somewhere else if they already have own apartments for the players? Unless they are full, but I doubt it. Their Valorant team isn't bootcamping atm and their CSGO team is in Malta. It could also just be the camera that makes the wall appear bit different shade of color.
  • Liquid is using Alienware monitors in their HQ and in apartment rooms I would imagine because of sponsor. But in nAts case its clear that the monitor he is using is from Zowie. You can tell by the design and greyish color. Team Vitality Valorant at least uses Zowie monitors and you can see this by inspecting the victory moment of Team Vitality vs MAD Lions French VRL finals. They are likely using Zowie XL2546 based on that. nAts also uses Zowie monitors, but again he clearly isn't home. If it was Liquid they would have likely given him Alienware monitor.
  • And again Liquid is located in Netherlands. Its fast to take a flight or a train there tho.

Its interesting and fun. Some really obvious points but still. Back in OW days I predicted couple player signings no one else did (even the leakers) based on really small stuff I noticed on their streams and socials. He may or may not join Vitality, but I think some of these points point that Vitality might be the reason he is in Paris.

That is interesting. Also its likely that Vitality would be keeping BONECOLD even if they did other changes. Also something I noticed that both BONECOLD and baddyG tweeted their Vitality NFT(?) project profile pictures yesterday while both H1ber and Cender(their current sentinel) haven't posted anything Vitality related in a while. This could be completely unrelated and BONECOLD/baddyG seem to be more active in socials anyway and they might just be on vacation. But again small thing that could be linked.

Kcorp looks more likely, since vit already has players, Unless the wanna drop almost all of them.

Sherlock holmsing all the outcomes, I respect it. Nats is insane, really hope to see him play in the kickoff!!

Yes, but I doubt they would enter next year with this 5. My predictions is that they are going to replace most of it. Also its nAts we are talking about here. Even tho Cender had good season in VRLs still any team would replace him with nAts if they got the chance. Vitality clearly has the money to bid.
