Japan team stocks and why

Zeta Division: Buy

I'm a fan of sugarzero and tenn, think they upgraded their team while keeping laz. Top 3 team for sure.

Crazy Raccoon: Sell

Bazzi >> Astell, meiy and popogachi are good but losing fisker means this team goes back to being okay, maybe not qualifying for masters.

Reject: SHORT THIS TEAM, TRASH

Without going into too much detail, I think this roster overall is just garb, they will hard underperform compared to expectations.

FAV Gaming: Maintain

These guys are alright, they got fisker and minty back. L0b is a beast. Should be a top 6 team easily.

Detonation White: Maintain

I think this team is too unknown to make assumptions, they can pop off with HSK igl but no clue how the rest of the team will do.

IGZIST: BUY NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE

Some people said this roster looks worse than reject, I say wtf are these fake fans smoking. BBI were on the come up and they added a T1 duelist. No brainer here, they're top 3 and my darkhorse to make it to masters.

Reignite: Buy

People don't know this team so stocks very low, foxy9 is cracked and eko is decent. Good buy opportunity before rise.

Jadeit: Maintain

I think allow and hate are great additions, but the rest of the team are really trash. Makes it hard to buy into them.

Sengoku: Buy

Good overall new roster, decent expectations for this team.

Fennel: Maintain

A decent T2 team that has no chance to make it to masters but no chance to underperform, I think they will be the same.

Jadeite could’ve been so good but they picked up a bunch of random T2 players

For now I’m choosing to invest in Sengoku, DetonatioN, and Blue Bees

  1. Zeta division (if Dep can return to decent form)
  2. Crazy Raccoon
  3. Sengoku (really like GangPin I think he will have a breakout year.
  4. Igzist (Lakia magic? Worried about potential communication issues)
  5. BlueBees (smth poggers, but I wonder how changing million will go)

Regarding the BBI come up, I think the roster itself was sort of falling off towards the end, since they lost to Feeling (Sengoku) and Fennel. Maybe adding Lakia and Ask will change that.

Edit: changed from art to ask

My buys:

ZETA (they look like a strong team on paper, communication won't be an issue at all, and assuming dep can come back to form, this team is the favourites for masters)

Crazy Raccoon (new squad, but picked up some strong pieces. If Meiy can become a good Jett player, then they can gun for the top spot.)

Sengoku (the dark-horse. They gave the old ZETA squad a hard time, and with enough practice, Sengoku can become a great team.)

Reignite (another dark-horse contender. Foxy9 aka SeolHwa was crazy good, and eKo looked great on TNL. If kurozooted can be a good player, then this team is one to watch out for.)

SCARZ (no one's talking about them, but I think they can be a surprise contender. C1nder is insane, marin and ryota- are really good, Anthem and Shuzz are great pickups, but sio is still an unknown quanity. I think SCARZ can be really good, come this qualifier.)

IGZIST (ex-Blackbird Ignis + Lakia + Ask. I mean this team seems really good on paper, but their recent performances left JP fans concerned. I think they can come back to top-form for sure, and gun for the masters spot.)

Agreed. Whenever the momentum is starts building up he performs good. But when the team starts to lose, he starts losing aim duels and stuff

even tho bazzi >> astell and they lose fisker
its an upgrade cuz astell can flex(sentinel and controller)
They have a "dedicated" sova player (popo)
meiy is an insane duelist player

CR is a very unpredictable team.
Meiy is expected to use the jets, but they were inferior to fisker in the VCT in 2021, but they are growing, so it is hard to predict.
Astell is clearly inferior to Bazzi and Medusa, but he will be the IGL, so we can expect teamwork like the old Nth, and Munchkin no longer in the IGL.
Popogachi is an excellent addition, but he is an unknown quantity, as he did not have a good record with his former BBI team, and he has been away from Valorant for a while.

However, from their broadcast, it seems that communication errors and the introverted nature of the Japanese are improving, which is a big improvement.

Among the minor teams, I'm looking forward to Blue Bees, a mixture of two Russians led by something (smthlikeyou11), and Crest Gaming, which has recruited samuraiD and strong young players who have shown success in LCQ.

By the way, the @YossyFPS spreadsheet is very useful, albeit with some lag.

ZETA DIVISION
Newcomer SugarZero is one of the best Astra users in the country.
Dep is also known for his AIM , but in his previous team Reject, he tended to be free , so I'm not sure if he'll fit in with ZETA's skill-based game like KR and EU.
Laz is, by his own admission, the best player in the country.

CRAZY RACOON
With the addition of Astell, who speaks fluent Japanese, there will be fewer communication errors than when Munchikin was IGL.
However, Astell himself does not have high clutch ability, and Meiy, the new duelist candidate, has not been outstanding in his previous team, so the overall power is down.

REJECT
Reita, who used to be the IGL of ZETA, and Medusa, who used to perform well in CR, have joined the team.
Zepher, who uses Jett, is less capable and RC has a lower TIER than the two.

IGZIST
The addition of Lakia, a famous Korean player, was a hot topic, but it doesn't mean that he can fill in the holes of other players.
They was the runner-up to ZETA in the last tournament of 2020, but has been dropping in lower TIER in more and more researched games since then.
Oitan used to be known as one of the best sentinels in Japan, but I'm not sure if he'll still be good in 2022.

BLUE BEES
善悪菌 and smith (something),the two main duelists are good.
When they are hot, the best in the country and can be the dark horse of the tournament.

FAV GAIMING
Fisker and Minty are back from CR, but that also means that FAV GAMING, which was in the top 4-8 class, is back again.
Fisker is good at getting kills with his AIM against lower ranked teams, but he can't do anything against players of the same rank or higher.
We can't expect much from them.
