This is the fixed core:

Derke
Less
Sayonara

Now you need a smoker and a recon initiator. One of them being IGL. Give me your suggestions.

I have some top free agents for 2026 that would fit imo:

Shao
Leo
Sadhaak
Keiko
Proxh

I will add some good T2 options here too:
DaviH
Larok
Loita
Anima
Yohpa
qu1ckz

Realistic buyout candidates:
Kr1stal
Cloud
ange1 (benched)

It will be hard to secure an IGL. Leo would definitely be the dream candidate.

He has done multiple winner interviews on broadcast. He is already solid and with a full English environment he will get fluent in no time

people need to realize that lar0k and loita want to be superstars just like comeback

people in BBL twitter said they were always super competitve with eachother, these guys are not going to turkish teams unless FUT gets alfa wo0t or riens level talent for superteam, they will 1000% go English teams in americas or EMEA to learn english for their future

I think keiko stays at liquid.

vitality cant get keiko shao or saadhak, so they by default get leo and loita

anything other than leo and that team will fail, because they need an igl and i can only trust leo to igl out of any options

Yeah right i payed extra attention to import but messed up sadhaak...

But why cant they get the other two?

they just need smokes and init, you get leo or your season is over, then you can either get keiko shao or loita, but idk if they can compete with liquid and navi bags after dumping money for leo

tbh its scary for vitality, the only "IGL prospect" that can save a superteam is leo and he hasnt played in 2 seasons lul

plus shao deserves to play initiator again

Oh i am rebuilding for 2026 man. I already finished with 2025. Fuck the season. Maybe I'm misunderstanding.

Yeah IGL they might have to buyout again. Cloud is right there. If Giants suck and he forces an exit it might be a thing. Otherwise....

Theres a significant chance ange1 will be on the market if Navi dont make champs. He has his flaws but would fix vits calling issues. You just gotta get a good coach too for them to have good comps.

Leo is definitely the dream choice for them. Star player, great caller, experienced, free agent... And they have been flirting with each other for a full year now. I think theres a significant chance IF he were to comeback that he would ditch FNC for Vit even if they still wanted him. His health is the primary issue here. I think he would still be elite since was fantastic in 2024 despite being at the peak of his sickness later on.

You do not understand the term free agent.

making leo igl right after being gone for over a year… it’s like you want him to play terribly when he comes back

Shao is staying in NAVI. He will inherit the igl role in case Ange1 retires

Source?

Also ange1 is probably getting kicked if they miss champs

Gut feeling. Shao is best friend with Ange1. He sided with him when there was the internal beef with suygetsu, so if Ange1 decided to retire he'll probably move to coach role and Shao will become the igl - it's the most logical move. Also NAVI will never kick him. Only way to part ways is if he himself wants to leave.

I disagree. Everyone has a limit. Ange1 might still want to play an NAVI has has changed everything atp except for him. An realistically they have been underperforming since mid 2023. Thats a long tim

Lowkey kr1stal would be fire with leo
