ok please give me ONE other reason why someone would choose not to play ascension, especially a player who seemed to have no reason to quit, just when their valorant career is starting to take off?

look im not saying that benjy is going to go to heretics, but there must be a reasonable explanation as to why benjy would choose to leave a team that has quite frankly done quite well in their regional league? it doesnt make sense unless it was to pursue greater opportunities, and that is supported by the fact that the team itself isnt dissolving, its just him leaving. i think i can make a reasonable assumption based on what he tweeted, and the context of the tweet (roster issues in franchising etc).

In Spanish program universo valorant they showed a picture of Benjy playing death match with heretics players also they said that Heretics had 2 options in mind Benjyfishy and Vakk

its a possibility but i think its unlikely considering how much he has invested into valorant.

don't think so, especially when the state of that game hasn't got a tiny bit better after he quit

Heretics really are dumb or what? No hate for Benjyfishy, but why him (outside of clout)? I would imagine there being many others who are unsigned and who have shown better stuff lately. Really makes you question their decision making if this happens considering the mess of a team they built for this season of VCT.

Point is that this just seems like a clout move if anything. There are multiple players that would "deserve" a shot on a franchise team instead of him. I just don't think that Benjyfishy is ready for tier 1 and someone else could do better given the chance (obviously just quessing how he would perform). Them favoring clout over performance is just really shitty, especially for a team playing in a limited league.

And I never understood their tought process behind the building of this current team. I'm not hugely against Mixwell, but he felt like a clout/marketing signing if anything. And rest of the roster was built out of players who had pretty weak 2022 and were on their prime in 2021. At least I think they could have built a better team with more potential.

But this is just my opinion, obviously I don't know what is happening behind the scenes, in scrims etc.

i dont think there are that many more better non franchise players. i doubt that someone from apeks, acend, case, etc would leave their team right before ascension

There might be players who have performed better, but do they also have the LAN and big stage experience benjy has from playing at top level fortnite for such a long time? I wouldn't take that ability to still perform under more pressure lightly

Why are they allowed to make a roster change at this point in the season though ? Already had the mid season transfer window in February ?
