How on earth did they miss out on Comeback if they were gonna drop koala.... Like how can gentlemates steal him when you have much more money and a good core.

Like... with Comeback this team makes champs... but you just waited around too long i guess, you were too indecisive about your future direction...

Now who do you sign? Ardiis? Xuss? Izzy? All good players but none of them are the next kaajak. Getting someone like that could have changed the caliber of the team completely

Navi missed big on the market.

navi management are blind. they couldve signed woot before TH but didnt do so.

expecting them to do anything good after they dropped dombroos is just delusional

Good shout. If vit actually bench him he is their last chance at greatness. But i wonder if Vit wants to strengthen their opps this late in the season

Vitality downfall is near. Project is over if they are actually planning to drop their igl.

No way any new player gonna take igl role.

I assume they took the decision to drop Koala too late and M8s were already in talks with Comeback. Also if I was a player of Comeback's caliber icl I'd refuse to go to NaVi, that team is doomed to fail and even if they went to champs they'd bomb out

How long is his contract to M8s? Also I think he considers that this team is favorites for Ascension, which is pbb true bcs of him

dont know the length but even if navi did horrible in stage 2 with comeback he would still be guaranteed a place next year.

navi is prob going for a huge rebuild next year and rather be apart of that than having a big chance of getting relegated.

ofc he is guranteed a spot next year but even if M8s is relegated every single team except FNC and Vit will want to buy him out so it's a win win for him

dont think so since m8 arent letting him go for cheap. no org wants to deal with buyouts

I think you are underrating how much of a difference he would make to 90% of teams itw
Any orgs that has to money to sign him will try to do so unless they have a better player than him (so only three teams or smth)

no hes very good dont get me wrong but the duelist market is kinda stacked in emea.

FUT = Xeus
KC = marteen
TH = Miniboo
FNC = kajaak
VIT = derke
BBL = lewn

the top teams already have young or established duelists that have done well and dealing with a potential buyout situation that can take months is not really a thing orgs do in emea.

that's only half the teams, still a lot of room

yeah but if we take into the consideration that 2 of those teams outside the top 6 are ascension teams and the remaining 2 are both on 1 win it doesn't really look appealing for comeback.

that is just nonsense. They finished 5th-6th in EMEA. They are objectively playing well. As a duelist looking for a job youre pretty much want to join Navi right now too. Navi is looking much more promising than Gentlemates is thats for sure (before comeback joined).

"doomed to fail" what utter rubbish. They went away from their early season troll comps too late and played catchup so far. Still they made 5th-6th. Their players are doing well individually and their igl is calling well. What is doomed here???

I don't agree but that's just personal opinion so who cares, NaVi won't be good enough until they make deep changes, they keep getting worse since 2022
Also what makes you think that they won't refuse to adapt to the next meta just like they did this year?

the fact that since season start they have moved closer and closer to meta comps

because they got proven that their opinion on the meta was wrong but that doesn't mean anything for the future

Kajaak was already considered the best prospect in emea before the season began, you just don't know what you're talking abt
