Whats the problem of Vitality

What happened to this team after Kickoff

dropping one of the most consistent beasts in trexx and sayf igl getting exposed

sayf incident

no trexx

Coaches removed the only person setting up Derke because he knew their IGL was dogshit and pulled him on it.

roster change, looked lost ever since

Sayf

remind me a lot of 2024 kc

i think they are very exec heavy and rely on player quality to clutch out situations, but their execs aren't that good anymore and the midrounding is not great

dropping one of their initiators did not help

Liquid was right to drop Sayf last year

The midrounding is ass on this team, seems like trexx did a lot

FUT was literally cooked by VIT with Trexx in Kickoff, lol. Trexx even said in voice comms he freaking knew what they would do — and now VIT lost against FUT. What a shame!

all they did in kickoffs was create a fake hype
they lost to navi in groups, so fut is nothing

Pretty much what #8 said. It's similar issue to 2024 KC. Mechanically cracked players but the igling/midrounding is not there. Kickoff was a honeymoon period for them, it was obvious that ego clashes were going to sink the team real quick.

I also think the vibes on the team are bad right now.

role issues and Sayf

If Sayf is fragging the way he is, imo there’s no reason to keep him. He’s dropping FNS numbers but he is nowhere near as good in terms of midrounding. They play sluggishly slow rounds where they get nothing done and try and just take dry fights constantly. I think a coaching change could maybe be in order too but hard to say. Derke has also been having a rough time but he’s definitely getting less setup than he was on Fnatic. Imo you either replace sayf or you have to find a way to get him fragging again. The issue is it’s probably not a good idea to change the IGL this late into the season but maybe it could work. Idk tho it’s weird, I don’t want to fully blame sayf because I do think he’s super good but he was supposed to be a fragging IGL and he’s not.

TLDR: Sayf’s IGLing is not good enough to justify having such poor individual performances. Coaching staff maybe at fault for their no-util slow play style

bad igl

coach are brain dead and cant find a solution. their slow style worked in kickoff and a bit in bangkok but aint working anymore
-sayf + trexx
-cyvoph and bring on the goat FNS
