i think that
filu/zachkappa
guardy
olizera
soulcas (igl)
natank
yaba hc
looks viable no?
is sheydos confirmed to be leaving?
I saw a leak a few weeks ago but people were saying it was a joke
Only the staff change is confirmed. Until there isn't a new staff roster decisions won't be taken
I would almost rather Monster IGL
But no good options, Soulcas is not it for sure imo
idk how you can be so sure about that when liquid has been succesful under soulcas' igling in the past
it was a different and simpler meta, sure, but currently in valorant, there's not good enough igls to compete in tier 1 (who are also good at shooting), so you have to make up igls from somewhere. that's pretty much what bbl did with jamppi, what heretics did with boo, or what liquid did with nats, and their micro is really impressive coming from "non-igls"
i think he's the best option for koi rn
boo was always and IGL, and soulcas is just not nats nor jamppi. Can you remind me again when was soulcas TL's IGL? I do not remember which stint that was, that might help
liquid didn't have a stable igl from 2021 to 2022. the igling was something it mostly rotated between jamppi, soulcas, and sometimes scream. emil said it on an interview sometime ago, i don't have a link though, i just remember hearing it during a match
and i'm pretty sure boo wasn't always the igl in heretics pre-2024, i think zeek was meant to be the igl but he got dropped, and weber took over the role. heretics in 2023 suffered from the same problem as g2 did back when they played in emea: they didn't have an igl
Boo has been the IGL for his teams since LDN United, just cause he's good at fragging doesnt mean he wasnt always dedicated to the captain role
then i got my facts wrong there
still, the point and the cases of non-igls getting good at the role still stand
Boo was always the IGL, there was a period of like 2 weeks where zeek IGLd but Boo was IGL before at LND UTD and 95% of his TH time
wtf is this role shitshow
zach
natank
soulcas
olizera
grubinho
could be guardy in place of natank too but i think he is more proven
yaba (hc)
'wtf is this role shitshow' and you proceed to say the exact same roster i said except u change guardy for grubi
soulcas would play smokes
zach duelist
guardy initiator
natank flex
olizera sentinel
really simple, only soulcas would have to adapt to a new role (thing he has done in the past)
tbh i would still keep Flyuh, we need to remember he still relocated from NA and he has very good potential (his calling in MxS was very good and they were favs to win Ascension)
i would do it like:
Flyuh - Flex,IGL
Zachkappa - duelist
Olizera - Senti
Natank - Flex
Pyrolll/Vince - Smokes
yaba/McE - hc
imo this roster could have alot of potential
i don't hate on any player, but koi is not going anywhere if they keep flyuh
he has not been a leader for the team, and his calling has been mediocre at best
there has been a lot of rounds that an immortal player would set up better than flyuh
i still think he can get better, he relocated, is relativel young and we saw how good he can be on MxS, maybe Gorilla was that bad of a coach that the Strats were flawed from the beginning, all i can say is that is not the Flyuh that played on MxS
