Giants Roster Changes

With Meddo, hoody and pipsoN leaving Giants, they are now looking for 2 new players and a coach.
Who would be the best replacement for these? And who would be available?

They were playing exceptionally well during their run in the VCT EU Challengers winning against Team Liquid and Fnatic before getting knocked out in the EMEA playoffs against G2 Esports and being one map away from going to Berlin.

Giants Gaming said via twitter "We have reached an agreement with another club for the transfer of @VGIA_pipsoN, @MeddoVAL and @hoodyVALORANT".
Where do you guys think they would go, and if it's an agreement would 3 players from another org be coming in to replace them?
I guess we'll see soon enough

The other or is G2 my friend. Basically they wanted Pipson as a coach, Pipson said he will only go if they also take hoody and Meddo and seems like G2 accepted, confirmed by Lembo member of Giants. And that’s why Davidp was complaining, with a lot of reason because it really sucks for him

Are you satisfied with that as a G2 fan?
For me only pipson looks like a suitable choice for G2‘s high expectations the other two are good but not exceptional. Plus many questions: IGL who? Jett who? Sova who?

Mix returns to Jett, he never wanted to leave the role. I'd guess hoody will take Sova, he'd played Phoenix, Viper, Sage, Skye... He is an insane flex player. The IGL thig is harder to tell...

Bad lineup especially mixwell is not good enough jett to be the best team in the world

I the other hand I’m very sad for Giants I really liked them and this really sucks for them.

When I first heard G2 was aiming for Giants I knew this was gonna happen, but I guess one delusional part of me hopped it was just the coach or in worst case scenario switching keloqz for Fiti

Yes I know, I have those questions too. Lately I’m not very into the Spanish scene because I haven’t had the time, but I’m sure there are rumors about what Mix is gonna do that for sure solve some of those questions, but don’t quote me on that.

Honestly is not what I expected but I kinda have a lot of hope on Pipson, I have heard really good things about him. Hoody really has a lot of potential and Meddo does too, but is true they are not the superstars you could have expected. Is not a revolutionary change but it works like an standard one.

Edit: I was typing while #8, so yes, that’s kinda what I thought I recalled. Trust Jokie better, he knows what he is talking about

Honestly knowing how G2 works and how Carlos does things I wouldn’t be surprised if they paid just a little bit to Giants and gave them keloqz and Kolda as an exchange

meddo is sentinel and hoody is flex, maybe meddo could replaced by fizzy/monsterrr and turko replaced hoody with tanizhq as the coach.
