G2 Mixwell

This isn't about roster changes, there's a lot more to it behind the scenes so I'm certain G2 will pick up the best replacements.

So, let me start off by saying I don't think Mixwell is being replaced anytime soon.

G2 and Carlos' ambitions are to win 1st and foremost, they're assembling monster rosters in all their esports facing 2022 so expect Valorant to be the same.

They just got rid of a popular band-boy and 2 franchise players in League ackowledging how much hate they'd get for it.

That means brand value is not on the line and isn't what's keeping Mixwell afloat. If they have to cut their most popular because he's not stepping up I'm sure they'll do it and that's how it should be.

That being said, that must mean Mixwell adds something to the team (competitive-wise) others don't.

Copypasting this from somewhere else:

[[[Mixwell is a unique case of talent. An example of superation, success... A mature guy and underrated prodigy.

He brought NA CS to the top as a rookie and its interesting to see that after his departure everything went downfall in our scene.

After leaving OpTic he moved to live with Rush because he was feeling lonely.

Started getting offers from many teams such as prime Mousesports, but turned em down because he wouldn't agree to sign for any team without his gf, therefore he had to start from scratch, recomposing EU team's leftovers, without orgs event attentance back up in competitive tournaments to the point of creating his own team.

Won a lot of things in Spanish CS, made some history here and there and then he says he lost ambition, burnt out... Now he's found success in Valorant.

Not only did he manage to make G2 the best Valorant team of 2020 (1st European Era, 1st team in the world to surpass 100k earnings, 2k points, longest winstreak, longest time at #1 rank, 1st team to feature all players in top rank title winners and money earners, 7/7 Ignition series and more) but he's also brought his team to the top after switching roles and a complete different lineup.

This "last samurai" is the player with the most titles won worldwide:

  • 17 titles
  • 4 runner ups
    And many good placements
  • 3-4th in his 1st LAN, Masters Berlin

This is only the esports side of the coin, thing is, Mixwell is a leader. He's making sure to take care of his community he's building up, striving to pass on his teachings and values to his community.

The best definition of a professional]]]

I can only see Mixwell leaving G2 if:

  • Massively underperforms
  • You find a nAts-like replacement
  • He himself steps down

I was skeptical about keeping Mixwell but I'm ok if he stays and finds a comfortable position. Then again what we know is a really small % of what really happens.

Ps:

Apparently, the player Nukkye didn't wanna play with is Keloqz. Keloqz was looking like a future star although he was kinda inconsistent.
Would've loved to see G2 developing him but I'm sure they'll find another cracked Jett out there

Kolda's departure (if rumors are true) is also sad because all this teammates speak good on him, how much energy he brings, how he motivates his players... A charismatic legend. But it wasn't enough.

Transfer window is looking good. There's a lot of options.

Thoughts?

I would keep m1xwell as well, but the problem is he needs to bring something to the team. Sentinel role isn't for him, they need a better experimented sentinel player. Meddo, for example.
I don't think he was a bad Jett player really, but there are better options than him. Nukkye NEEDS to either main Jett or expand his agent pool to fill most of initiators or flex agents.
Fit1 would be a huge improvement from Keloqz, but what happens to nukkye agent pool if G2 brings him in the team?

idk if its the best opinion, but i think its happening, tired of seeing him on the sentinel role.

Not really sure about that happening with all those cracked Jett players out there

Mixwell needs a role to play to his full potential. Sentinel was alright imo. He has a wide-ass agent pool and more agents coming out will benefit him

He is very intelligent from what I saw him in the role of sentinel, but his DNA is to be aggressive, he is not made to be sentinel

Indeed, he needs to be the flex player/second initiator (skye, breach, kayo, jett/raze when 2 duelist comp, sage (maybe nukkye instead of him and he swaps to duelist in these maps), viper...

There is no space for other role for him in the team.
He is too aggro to fill the sentinel role

This I had already said:
Let's look at the statistics before he changed roles, and always top frage even playing with yoru (previously before the role change) he was very complete in jett and even when he changed roles to viper he destroyed fnatic with viper, with the previous roster it was igl playing with jett and always had a good performance.

I don't understand the gf situation.

I'm assuming it's cuz she couldn't move where those teams are located not sure tho, that's why he stayed in spain

Like the "whole" reason behind him going back to Europe was to see his gf again

Down bad lol (jk)

So since the teammates are talking good about Koldamenta he can not be right? So this is why u guys think it's keloqz. I mean understandable. I just thought there was a source or anything about it.

Well that and the fact that when he says it he shits on how Keloqz plays pretty hard.

they are relating keloqz to that, because nukkye said he doesn't like keloqz's jett and thinks he's nos smart enough to use it and create impactful situations for the team
