Stellar wasn't trialing for them, he was playing against 100T in the scrim
Yea, in the screenshots two months ago... He was seen playing with the new squad now
Old post from before BabyJ and Ec1s
New Post from right now
So no, he wasn't playing against them
stellar is a better IGL than ethan, and plays kj, viper and chamber very well, ethans roles overlapped with everyone too much so thats just unlucky but stellar is really good trust insane pickup from sean and ddk
I can’t tel if you’re being serious, but so I forever trust in DDK/Sean
ethan has onl;y been an IGL for a little while, stellar has more experience and players more needed roles. don't need a flex or sova player so only thing ethan can play is chamber but imo stellar is on par if not better at him + he plays viper and kj which are meta on a lot of maps
ethan most overrated player in the world, find me a tournament where he had consistent impact and not just 1 match where he played decent and ill believe hes good
Yea I agree but idk if these 2 new players are supposed to be an improvement or smth. I mean stellar could be a better igl but i really have no clue what sean and ddk are trying to do here
i think hes a tier 1 talent but i dont think hes as great as some ppl say he is. Ppl called him the best flex player in NA when in a whole year he could only player 3 agents, like he refused to play Kayo in matches when skye was so clearly out of the meta
bang and stellar have smokes experience, and if this team is real it looks like asuna will be switched to flex, giving bang the ability to play smokes
If this is real….
It’s almost as disappointing as the new TSM.
Looks like the top 5 teams in NA are not changing anytime soon.
Feels different but i think a good pickups. Do most of the people here know valyn way back when the guard started their roster?
I agree but The Guard as a team is just a miracle
Like once in a decade type stuff they pulled off by bringing together 5 unnamed players and making them the best team in NA
I think its not once in a decade. NA just really need a good structure and should stop the mindset of being an unknown player means a bad one. I mean there are lots of good players in EU with a good structure and hungry to win and that’s why the competitiveness is at its peak.
Ye i like stellar tbh i think he would be a good igl but idk abt will, just based on talent there are some better pickups
people act as if bringing up coachable T2 players and having success isnt possible. We literally watched a team just do that with The Guard. Valorant is such a fresh esport that talent is still being discovered, plus just trying the same thing with the same roster probably wasnt cutting it. just cuz these guys arent the flashy names like Wardell its automatically not gonna work.
And get this, did u know that just putting big name players together doesnt always work! in a team game theres a thing called chemistry :D
