His most played agent is Killjoy followed by Deadlock, are you okay? how's that a contradiction? Liquid did him a favor by picking him up. They wanted to go with double sentinels meta because Bind and Abyss were out and Tejo as a solo initiator was plenty in most maps. The fact that your argument was using academy players is hilarious; Ninja wasn't the best and GSR was still young.

apparently not

this is fine, but serial and nats are practically the same player and nats is already the definitive best in the world at what he does. regardless of what role serial is put in, he will be put in an uncomfortable position where he has to play outside of his normal style in order to mesh with the team and quite obviously that didn’t work
and if this was the case at all, why even try putting him on gekko and tejo in the first place? why make him uncomfortable just for kicks when you already have a set plan?

NINJA is a flex player whom liquid already has signed, it would be more worthwhile to call him up since he is already there AND he is much more likely to be more comfortable filling in the role of kamyk
They indeed did him a favor. he played internationally in 6 months. he's recognized in tier 1 or else we wouldn't be talking about him right now.
nAts started playing alot of Viper to let Serial on sentinels.
Liquid's mistake is letting go of double initiators by dropping Kamyk, it hurt the team's attack massively, with him they were the fastest team to plant the spike.
Serial has a good aim but he needs to work on his overall game. A sentinel should be a late round closer, a nightmare to play against on defense.
he's recognized in tier 1 or else we wouldn't be talking about him right now.
he’s being talked about because he is the obvious weak link on a roster that underperformed, he is still being considered good because people recognize his talent from tier 2 (like liquid did) and and whoever picks him up, whether it’s t2 or t1, know this
he was talked about before liquid because of how talented he was, he is now back in the same boat

you are a liquid fan and you don’t even know that nats is the most influential viper of all time bar none, i’m actually quite embarrassed for you
he has always been the viper player because of how good he is; other sentinels play around Him
Liquid's mistake is letting go of double initiators by dropping Kamyk
this is exactly my point
serial is a good player, but he isn’t the player liquid needed and the player they needed wasn’t one they could ever turn serial into in such a short amount of time
Exactly, picking up serial as a whole was a terrible move for liquid and they should’ve gone for someone else
liquid picked serial up to flex because kamyk was a flex, and they tried that for a bit before realizing it didn’t work and then put him on astra and shit, which fucked up both him and patitek
serial is GOOD but he was never going to succeed on this roster because of just how severe the role issues are. i’ll admit saying that liquid set him up to fail is an overreaction, but their attempts to make him comfortable didn’t really work and it made a promising team a bit weaker than they would’ve liked
set him for “success”? HAHAHAHA BRO, they took a lurking senti main and made him play with the best lurking senti itw while forcing him to flex on agents he doesn’t play, how is this setting him up for success
liquid is 100% at fault because they chose to go for him instead of a player who actually played kamyk’s roles
feel like your reaching here? its no ones fault.
serial got signed and Lohan realised they would be better with a proper initiator player in trexx than serial. they tried him out in a role they needed, it didnt work and they decided to look for better.
also who was available after kick off? TL couldnt just sign any random player. not everyone will be playing their preferred role and some people will have to sacrifice.
also serials stocks is higher than it was before TL signed him. he will be picked up by someone else
serial will get his chance with another team, the problem is signing him knowing that there would be blatant role issues and setting up a rookie for failure right off the bat instead of fitting him in into the system you built
if you’re asking who was available after kick off, liquid has an entire academy team which contains NINJA, a flex player who plays several of kamyk’s agents (i would’ve said GSR but i don’t think he’s old enough yet)
getting rid of serial was the correct move, i agree, but a better move was never signing him in the first place and letting a team who needed a good sentinel take him instead
Rank stats in EMEA, mainly KD, are unreliable.
EMEA Rank is all immortal even in the upper band, but is there a shortage of people in EMEA Rank?
Let's come to PACIFIC.
The KD of any player who moved to PACIFIC from another region and played more than 2 ACTs will drop 0.2-0.3 for every player.
I don't think HS % makes a difference in any region, so I'd trust it.
