TrialRunnr [#3]so braindead
NRGs only real problem is lack of firepower right? These two are young talent who consistently frag unlike vic and Crashies

Crashies is consistent he had one below average tournament, Trent doesnt come close.
Zekken could be an upgrade but I would much rather have Zekken over Ardiis than Vic.

my guy just got destroyed with all the receipts, sit down
Verstepping33 [#4]Just as #2 said, Zekken is overrated + Lets wait till Champions ends before making any judgments
What makes you say zekken is overrated?

Makes sense but if Crashies doesn’t step it up by the end of this tourney, then I would say Trent is a better option
Waking_W [#12]I think ardiss is the problem, man is way too inconsistent
That’s the problem, nrg has good grabbers but Crashies is slumping a little rn, vic and Ardiis are both insanely inconsistent

based on what tho? Trent shouldnt even be in this conversation, he is so overrated.
TrialRunnr [#18]based on what tho? Trent shouldnt even be in this conversation, he is so overrated.
Based on the fact that he is consistently TGRDS best player and absolutely farmed ascension + I don’t think this is a sure way for nrg to become good it’s then gambling on young talent for chances to increase firepower
i swear the 12 year old SEN fans have the worst takes on this website.. there is more than just frags which are taken into account while making a team.. Crashies and Victor on Optic have cleared XSET (where Zekken had his best results) and The Guard at the international stage. They simply wouldnt fit the team culture + have you seen how vocal crashies and victor are? crashies is literally the second caller in the team and adds much more value than you see on the scoreboard

Lets not compare Ascension to real tournaments tho, despite the guard being good, we have seen them and Trent drop the ball before, and Crashies shoudlnt even be in the conversation to be replaced given he is the second caller to Fns

Come on bro.. they were the worst player on the best team while zekken and Trent were best or second best in their team. Let's not act like Valorant is not a team game...
Crashies util is still very good, and there's an argument to be made that they are still better as a duo, but you def are underestimating zekken and Trent ngl

Braindead. Sentinels added Sacy, Pancada and Marved for firepower and how did that work for them? literally 0 achievement and it is because of OP's braindead takes which is 100% of Sentinel fanbase. Team culture and chemistry clears any kind of firepower argument.. picking the best players and putting them on a team wont get you results

I disagree highly?
Sentinels was just a project doomed to fail.
Fnatic added Leo and chronicle for firepower look how it went for them.
EG added Demon1
PRX added something
Firepower is a need in this meta. All top teams are busting with firepower except for NRG.

Ardiis is top ACS player in the tournament rn? Isnt your opinion kinda braindead?
madvillain [#26]Why would zekken and trent leave their franchised team for dogshit team like nrg lmao
For international lans?
Gutwi [#28]Ardiis is top ACS player in the tournament rn? Isnt your opinion kinda braindead?
LMAOOOOOOO bro is basing the whole torunament off one game, how fking braindead are you?

Sadly nrg clears both teams

Fnatic kept their core of Boaster, Derke and Alfa.. EG kept their core and so did PRX. These teams are literally examples of how having a strong team culture, chemistry and core is more important than picking the best and slotting them in. Removing crashies and vic for zekken and trent will mean they will have 5 different players from 5 different cores..
Indian Fnatic fans are the definition of braindead

Zekkens fragging has improved ten fold this year while Nrg are struggling with firepower, sure keep Crashies but if vic can’t consistently frag then he is a liability no?
What Nrg need is more firepower and zekken is an insane fragger when he is in the duelist/flex role

IF nrg struggle at champs then changes clearly need to be made, s0m and FNS def stay and sure you keep Crashies
But either vic or Ardiis should be replaced atleast

vic will not be replaced. Chet/FNS are not idiots like Sentinels to replace players based on scoreboard performance. If ardiis leaves it will be because he couldnt fit into Optic style of play
TrialRunnr [#30]LMAOOOOOOO bro is basing the whole torunament off one game, how fking braindead are you?
When was vic ever good then? 💀
Gutwi [#39]When was vic ever good then? 💀
Americas league Vic outperformed Ardiis,
Americas playoffs Vic outperformed Ardiis,
Masters Tokyo Vic outperformed Ardiis. and was a top 10 player
Do I need to say more or do you need more convincing that you are braindead?
EWW_EU_EWHO [#37]#25 and #33
I get what you mean but if the firepower on the team is not enough then more needs to be Added, zekken is a very flexible player who would bring insane firepower to the team and make them a championship contender, they can still keep the optic playes while making changes w Ardiis/victor

Americas playoffs ardiis was better than Victor
Masters Tokyo Victor wasn't that much better than ardiis

Diebs [#47]There is no nrg without the og food and crashies duo sadly
Even zekken for Ardiis makes this team much better imo
Pengu12 [#50]Zekken still played well Lmao
but crashies and victor played better so your point is useless.
Zerphyr1 [#51]but crashies and victor played better so your point is useless.
right and this guy wants to remove them right after shitting on zeta
Zerphyr1 [#51]but crashies and victor played better so your point is useless.
Vic barely played better playing jett and kayo winning 2x the rounds
Pengu12 [#54]Vic barely played better playing jett and kayo winning 2x the rounds
get off zekkens dick and just face the fact that victor and crashies are better players
Victor and crashies LAN experience is all you need to keep these guys they have been through everything (highs and lows). Trent and zekken are amazing players prolly better than them individually but how good will they perform on the big stage nobody knows. Let these guys play on big stage as they are still very young then we can talk about this
GreyDaze [#42]Americas playoffs ardiis was better than Victor

Yeah top 9 vs top 26 is really not that much better

Its more of a gamble then a clean upgrade imo, its a risk I would take but NRG might not
Zerphyr1 [#55]get off zekkens dick and just face the fact that victor and crashies are better players
lmao sexken clears
SmartPerson [#65]fns vic crashies core is so strong, but ardiiis is a joke, keep s0m and -ardiis +zekken(or tenz)
not tenz either -ardiis +zekken or -ardiis +yay cause the chemistry will be there for yay
Uncleben [#63]Whose gonna replace victor? Who is a better flex player in Americas league? He or S0m have been statistically NRG’s best player year long and he can play almost every role.

Bro didn’t preform better than victor in one tournament in 2023 all year long
Uncleben [#69]Bro didn’t preform better than victor in one tournament in 2023 all year long
Have u seen how many more rounds Nrg have won then Sen, look at games Sen won vs games Nrg won and zekken will have much better stats then victor, even look at games where Sen got a map and you will see
Plus victor is good only problem is he is inconsistent
Kru [#67]ALL I HAVE TO SAY: LOOK AT FNS'S PAST 100+ MATCHES
Sure, you can argue he is a good igl but he is literally bottom of his team EVERY SINGLE MATCH BASICALLY. Other teams igl's have popoff games where they actually perform but fns always never performs.
and he got outbrained by biank kkkkkkkkkkkkkk

I’m not sure Zekken is that consistent either, or at least he wasn’t in the past. Flex players by nature are inconsistent. FNS also mentioned that victor helps with attack side midrounding. I think Zekken is equal to victor and has more potential but Victor should not be the first/ only one dropped on NRG.

Very good points BUT Zekken has been incredibly consistent throughout lcq and Americas, he’s obv improved a lot since last year plus I feel like eventhough vic is very good zekken has better aim then him and similar gamesense(vics is prolly slightly better but zekkens will improve with time) and zekken is also a massive caller
What nrg need rn Is firepower and zekken is an incredible fragger(then again zekken is prolly the best NA duelist rn and Ardiis is dog)
yaiima0 [#73]FNS brain is huge, but u cant get away with good strats anymore at this point in the pro scene, you need firepower to back it up.
