guys there has to be a solution that fixes this team. i personally dont think that champs 2025 was their strongest showcase of their potential. obviously chichoo and smoggy are gross and went ballistic, but we didn't see much of the kk show

we had finally found the solution with s1mon, but then he exploded.

i personally think that all this team needs is a new coaching staff and maybe drop cb

im just hesitant in believing in autumn bc of how much shit he's gotten in the past

Drop cb??? He was best player against M8.

His agent pool is massive.. They need to drop smoggy or nobody

Good int debut imo. He was taking aggro space for the team. kk & cb wasn't playing bad.

yeah fair cb isn't that bad at this intl

i can maybe hear nobody even tho he's the igl, but dropping smoggy is just braindead bro that guy has done everything for edg

Yup its just sad. But They need to sacrifice atleast one core player no matter what.

Chichoo igl is another solution. His numbers aren't great anymore. Find a shooter to replace nobody..

the thing is you need to move forward, it feels weird when cores like these have been together for so long but teams are here to win

prx dropped mindfreak who was there from the start for a rookie initiator, and went on to win

yeah but mindfreak wasn't one of their BEST players. for me, the true core is chichoo, smoggy, kangkang. also im p sure chichoo and kk are a package deal

or it's kk and smoggy, i can't remember

oh yeah, i think its kk and smoggy; also edg is just like prx you can't say that they have one best player except for the face of the team; the amount of impact smoggy has was the same mf had on prx

i love the OG EDG team but bro smoggy needs to go ... he has made a lot of sacrifices for the team ever since 2022 but its just not happening anymore ... chichoo should be back ... i dont think cb will stay after yoru nerf anyways so whatever ... keep nobody, kk and chichoo and start building from there ... also CN nees to stop poaching coaches from pacific but again they cant necessarily import western coaches bcoz that just straight up contradicts the type of valorant they have learnt from scrimming with pacific teams from time immemorial ... in my opinion, you get After back and let a foreign coach join as an assistant coach

Cb isnt yoru one trick. 24k is there to protect cb.

bro what why are we dropping smoggy?? that guy singlehandedly carries them some games.

Is After a good coach?

the real issue is the core edg is very inconsistent, except for kk who always steps up at internationals

i don't think talent is that big of an issue, yeah chichoo and smoggy have fallen off; but even then they were quite competitive against m8

they need to go down the prx route, hire some na/emea coach to improve their basic fundamentals and game knowledge like mini was to prx, prx haven't lost their iconic chaotic style but they have good understanding of games, edg threw so many 5v3s going for solo hero plays like prx used to do in late 2024 - early 2025

There is a fix, its called TIME. Why? cause there's no magic instant quick solution. This isn't as bad as Madrid/Shanghai of coach aft3r trying to play EMEA style with Haodong no longer able to aim at high level.

They just need to win china again. 1st seed is massive for masters.

Xlg is finished. Only real challenge is tyloo

Smoggy needs to revive in order for EDG to become strong again, but his shots are so inconsistent... sometimes he looks like the best shooter in the world then most of the times he just sleeps during matches

Their struggles are more a symptom of the bigger disease plaguing Chinese valorant, which is the lack of young and innovative coaches. It’s a lot of just recycling coaching talent and not pushing any boundaries

Exactly, and BLG took Muggle. It’s just disappointing

I mean all cb does is overpeek when they have earned the man adv, I think he should be dropped or atleast coached to not make such plays

Peak edg was overpeeking everything. Smoggy & chichoo are way to passive now

That one fluke run really had them thinking they’re a dynasty now.
EDG fans used to throw a parade just for winning a single map at internationals, even if the flight home was booked the next day.

still wouldn’t fix them, edg are just the best at double initiator

similar to how prx sucked in tejo meta, this meta isn’t good for edg
