Man I really wanted yay to succeed man. I hope some other team picks him up. There are very few players who have had peaks as good as he had.

i think he will likely get picked up

he provides clout for ur organization
extremely high upside, maybe by building a system around him
probably willing to settle for a cheaper contract, his value isn't that high anymore
even at the worst if you fail to maximize his strengths, he's a serviceable role player

uhhh I'm not sure abt that really. There are some nasty propects in T2 and outside of EG everyone has now understood that rookies are generally insane. Idk where would he find a team tbh

some orgs are more focused on building up their brand rather than contending. perfect example is apeks last season

apeks were a broke org and getting flor was a way to get clout by paying minimum league salary+get a big prospect. yay wouldn't cost much but i don't think he'd be that big PR wise and most importantly he isn't a hot and coming prospect

i disagree, it's been 3 years since we've seen prime yay and he STILL is one of the most discussed pros on this site. i think he would bring a decent amount of viewership even if he's a shell of his former self

he is being dicussed because of his past self not bc of his present self. Let's be honest, this year when he was doing some insane shit from time to time people were saying "yay is back" and stuff, but who actually cared abt EG besides you and 3 random yankees? Also I don't think an org that wants to win will pick a player bc of PR clout stuff, they will pick up the best player thay can get period. And yay hasn't been good enough to be a top choice this year

Nah bro, idk if you remember but during the stage 1 playoffs the attention for EG was crazy, it almost felt like a champs/masters event was going on.

Also I don't think an org that wants to win will pick a player bc of PR clout stuff

my entire point was that an org who prioritizes pr clout stuff would pick him up if they care more about that then contending, which is more than u think.

Last season, EG and apeks for sure. I can't speak for other orgs cuz its hard to tell which orgs wanted clout or just fielded a poor roster. Remember that most esports organizations struggle with being profitable, they would gladly take viewership,merch sales, and AD revenue over being the 5th seed.

Im more scared he's gonna retire than him not getting picked up there is so many teams open right now and he played decently well last season and we now have chamber buffs so yay and cryo shouldn't be without a team.

And tbh chet might be in LOUD this season and they wanna go international so would be interesting if he grabs yay

Nah him retiring would be such a sad ending to one of the greatest players in 2022. I heard how he struggled mentally after 2022, I really hope he doesnt retire tho but idk if any team would be ready to take him with his current performance, it is simply not up to par to win trophies.
