dimmed [#7]someone needs to tell him Keiko is staying with TL fr
no he’s being replaced by the great demon1
shesh_ [#6]confirmed but not announced i think
ahh i see
yo as an NRG fan do you think he is gonna be an upgrade , downgrade or on equal terms with s0m ?
my honest opinion is its gonna be a sideways thing like keiko wants to shoot , like he wants to always take fights and shit like the thing is s0m used to set the team up on smokes so ya . I can see that he can be a huge upgrade over s0m but like considering Nrg's system it should be a sideways thing no ?

it’s an upgrade in terms of firepower but s0m is a better controller player than keiko is and he isn’t that much worse in firepower

I think its a system thing like instead of s0m having less firepower
like hot take if nrg let s0m not uk midround and shit he is better in terms of firepower also imo

i think keiko is an explicit upgrade in terms of aim and actually helps out with the roles a little
s0m was very vocal and also a midrounder, which probably helped a lot with ethan's midrounding, but after a year of experience + mada is also super vocal, i'm not sure how much it'll hurt on that front
obviously nrg is known for like the "alternative" playstyle, odin, shotguns, ratting in smokes (way more than other teams), s0m was a huge part of that, and i'm not really sure if keiko will be
it was a surprise factor last year, and keiko's aim is genuinely so good that i don't know if it even matters at that point, but it's also something different to point out
honestly, there is 1 active player on the entire planet that I genuinely think could genuinely be considered an upgrade to s0m, and it's keiko, so i'm very happy, even if it turns out to be a sidegrade of sorts
sexwithgiraffes [#12]what's odd about it?
idk the graphic just seemed weird to me
like i have no idea what's going on
but it is just a normal announcement ig

I agree on with u on a lot of points but I think playstyle wise Valyn (if he was in the market) would suit the team more but considering the options Keiko is the best player yall could have had .

ooo yeah valyn is also probably an upgrade contextually
