It’s going to be an insane year when these three are all eligible to play in the league. If Sen is smart they keep nightz under contract and get him on the team as soon as he turns 18.

If Cane has to play in Tier 2 next year, I'm praying SEN get all 3 of those guys on Cubert and let them develop together. They have been dominating Tier 2-3 events playing with Flor lol
I’m assuming that if envy ascends then they will just made an academy team with cane and ion
This kind of why I hope we don't ascend, watching this team next year without Cane/Ion would be torture lol. Would rather run it back with Cane/Ion and pick up 3 actual pros to help them develop instead of Egg/P0PPIN even though I love those guys. I'm hedging my bets on TSM winning but it's TSM so they'll probably choke.
I mean it could be a BR/LATAM team. But yeah I hope Sen somehow steals them for their academy team
As much as I love ENVY (I just watched NRG win champs who are my fav VCT team, I claimed them when they got the OpTic core) but I'm fine with either outcome I just want to watch them develop into good pros and dominate VCT
I said this when they picked him up on Cubert. Makes no sense to "build" your Academy team around Reduxx who is the definition of mid, when you have Nightz on the team. Even Kyu makes more sense to build around.
If anyone actually watched Tier 2 this year, you'd know that Reduxx/Nightz were experimenting with multiple roles. It wasn't about winning; it was about improving their versatility in roles so they could trial for VCT teams without being one dimensional duelists, as it's such a competitive role in the Americas.
they literally had reduxx and nightz swapping roles every other game at some points not exactly easy to stay consistent when u go from entrying to anchoring back and forth
Exactly, Cubert can't even ascend anyways, winning was not their main goal at all.
Except he was mid last year too. And I said as much:

Everything in that post is correct. Mada was the real superstar duelist in T2, and Verno was the real star of that Oxygen team. Only people who don't watch T2 think otherwise.
The reason he is learning other roles besides duelist is because he got gapped by every good duelist in T2.
He got hyped based solely off his age. And even that faded this year as players like Nightz, Ion and Canezerra came in even younger than him and completely outplayed him in their rookie seasons. Reduxx has never looked as good as a single one of those players.
