I was hoping for someone better.

Thwifo is an upgrade from Seb, and a solid role player, but I was hoping they would find a future star.

they already have two stars in yay and mada, they dont need more, also seb was a sentinel player, thwifo will perfectly slot in the role

You would rather take the TSM approach and get a bunch of stars than great players who fit the team? Thwifo is a big upgrade from Seb, and a great role player, and exactly the player you should've been hoping for...

As an Andbox fan I am not to excited about picking up one of Xsets worst players.

I was hoping the Johnqt rumors were right. He could slot into Sky/Sage and Vice could flex onto sentinel when Needed.

I understand Thwifo is a safe pick, but i feel like I have seen exactly what he has to offer, and it doesn’t excite me.

thwifo wasn't really one of their worst players. I think he was fine. They just wanted Zekken. Honestly Zekken fits more into the Xset team comp so it's understandable. I think this is still pretty exciting because it builds a good foundation for mada and yay to pop off.

You say one of Xsets worst players but 1: Xset is a great team so their worst player is still really good, 2: Xset was a really balanced team and never really had a consistent weakest link and 3: thwifo was dropped because they picked up an IGL and a cracked 16 year old, not because he was a weak player(he wasn't a bad player on xset whatsoever). This is a really good pickup from Andbox and you should be thrilled as a fan. I would much rather take a player that has been consistently great against tier 1 teams and fits perfectly into the team rather than a player who hasn't proved anything against tier 1 teams and doesn't fit at all into your team. Again you can't just throw 5 duelists on a team and succeed. You need support players and thwifo is one of the best support players in NA.

I agree with everything you are saying. I just wish we got the “cracked 16 year old prodigy” over the steady “smart choice.”

I don’t actually know much about Johnqt, but I had hope he was an up and coming star. I am just a little disappointed that this pickup doesn’t feel very thrilling.

I want andbox to be the best team in NA, and I feel like... without a true “star” that will not happen.

This may be good enough to qualify for Berlin, and Yay is quickly becoming a star.

Maybe Johnqt wasn’t the star I was hoping he was and they went with the solid smart choice.

I said 1 week after Iceland that V1 wouldn’t qualify for Berlin and andbox would, and I still believe that.

First off johnqt is 22 years old and secondly, I promise you that getting johnqt or any other "star" duelist would be a worse move than this. You already have mada and Yay to put on duelists. It really doesn't make sense to add a 3rd duelist player with the current meta. The only reason why a triple duelist comp was viable months ago was because everybody's utility usage was so shit. Unless ABX snatched someone like dapr there was no way they could seriously compete with Sen for the best team in NA. Obviously Sen would never give away dapr to a top team at this time so there really wasn't anyway to really seriously challenge Sen... ABX should be a top 5 team in NA with this move and again you should be EXTREMELY happy with this move and with how great your team has been despite losing Android.

Edit: look at NRG. They have tex, s0m, Android and Wedid. They ignored role issues by signing Wedid, leaving s0m to play kayo/skye instead of putting him on the smokes. They also have Android on viper which makes 0 sense. Unlike NRG, Andbox are making moves that keeps their players on the roles they are best on and just look at how teams like NRG and TSM just sign the best players instead of the best fits are doing right now. Both are losing to tier 2 teams like ez5, Virtuoso and Noble.

yo
this roster do be lookin scary. Jc and Thwifo will def make this roster super strong. I feel like they haven't utilized Jcstani to his fullest yet but he's a beast of a player. And thwifo just brings so much. Because he's just so solid and like yea he's just really good which makes a great structure for the team. Mada and yay are arguably some of the best duelists NA has. And vice is underrated asf. This team looks really strong. But I swear to god if this team is in the same bracket as C9 and only one can continue. I would not be able to watch the games knowing that one of those teams are robbed of their spot.
