Are they guaranteed LCQ or do they need 4th?

LG are restricted F/As. Although they want to stick together, they did get last. Maybe bdog? Jett/Chamber. Amazing awper. Asuna can play more raze and neon. Sounds good to me

I said the exact same thing. Please have Asuna play more raze/kayo and maybe even neon. He doesnt belong on such supportive agents like fade and sage

The xset of eu

I'm no expert by any means, this is just coming from a fan perspective. I wish we could see more Asuna on Kayo instead of agents like fade and sage. Having Asuna on a support instead of an aggressive self sufficent like kayo just seems a bit sad to me. Like having him be bomb bitch on icebox, or to constantly be supporting on fade on split. Just give this man some kayo. And as a bonus id also love to see him play raze/neon on more maps than just fracture.

And its also not like Kayo is bad by ANY MEANS on the maps he wasnt playing him. Hes great on split and icebox. The only map i never see kayo on is bind, and asuna is playing Skye (which is fine)

I also know stats arent everything but just looking at his stats on kayo/raze compared to fade/skye/sage just tell the story

Insane comebacks that shouldnt be possible + getting shit on by awpers

Lower bracket needs to be flipped

I think 100T could also 2-0 with those map vetos, but I think faze more likely pick Haven if 100T ban ascent

Bro VLR says babybay is the team captain, check twitter posied is IGLing

1. Both are 3rd seed
2. Both lost 2 games. 1 game to an eliminated team (TSM, C9)
3. Lost to the second seed (Faze, Ghost) in the final week, losing a guaranteed 1st seed.
4. Both teams giving the first seeds in their group their only loss. (OPTIC, XSET)
5. Both 3-2 (obv)
6. Both 2-0ed last seed in their group on icebox (first map for both) and bind (second map for both)

FOR EU AND NA

Do they actually have a neon comp?

Although TSM may have beaten 100T 3 times in VCT, it was 100T who knocks them out this year. You can win the battle... but not the war

This could be really stupid or not, idk. Dont get me wrong I love Will. Will is an amazing player and only seems to be getting better. The only problem is he seems to be leaning into a rifle instead of being that consistent awper. But imagine bdog (who is now a restricted f/a) playing with 100T. Its not unheard of for teams to make roster moves before playoffs, before lcq, and such. Imagine having bdog who is a dedicated, insane awp/chamber player. on maps like breeze he could still play jett, and stellar plays chamber but imagine more maps where Asuna gets to play raze, or even neon. I mean I think fracture rn is 100Ts best map, and a large part of that is Asunas raze. Now imagine their fracture but on 5, or 6 maps. And stellar has played breach before and can play sage and many IGLs have switched to a secondary initiator role and even said its the easiest role to IGL on.

The problem is Will and Asuna have great entrying chemistry, and ddk and sean have a longterm plan. I dont see any roster moves being made, and I dont necessarily think they should be made. Like i said before Will is amazing. This is just a shower thought type post.

I agree that both maps look better for 100T, however I just haven’t seen enough from either team on icebox. As far as 100Ts split, although it looked good in playoffs it still looks the same as it did in playoffs. They mopped TSM both times in open qual, only to lose to them in groups. They got 13-5ed by NYFU.

I just don’t see how the map pool would workout for NRG

• Breeze - 100T
• Bind - 100T
• Fracture - 100T
• Split - 50/50 (100T leaning)
• Icebox - 50/50 (haven’t seen enough from either team)
• Haven - 50/50 (NRG leaning)
• Ascent - NRG

Although this is off previous results, and if this group has proved anything it just matters who beats who on the day and nothing else.

Agreed. Although I understand why, I feel like I just want more creative comps. I feel like with the likes of seangares and mikeshd, they could have really innovative and creative comps. I want to see them play into their strengths more. I'd love to see Asuna on raze more maps or potential neon, see Will on chamber on a few more maps, see what Derrek is like on fade/skye, and even how stellar performs on like a breach.

I think back to the haven game vs TSM recently, and although yes they got outplayed, and all that it also seemed like a bit of a comp diff.

I just want more creativity because rn they seem very bland.

It goes by map differential before round differential.

I want Mikes and Sean to give 100t the most bizarre, crazy, unusual comps next week. I think with the amount of talent this coaching staff has, theres no reason they should be running last metas basic ass comps. Gimme neon, gimme fade, gimme asuna raze, gimme Derrek skye, I want all of it.

Dont get me wrong. sean and mikes coaching is amazing, and probably the biggest reason 100T is even doing anything. However, the team comps just seem so dull. It all seems like the most generic comps, and dont seem to be playing into their own strengths like Asuna being an amazing raze, etc. Take optic, NRG, and TSM how they just have comps that best fits THEM. I just feel like I'm watching last patches valorant with no new ideas.

I think this is most shocking to me because in strats / ideas they seem to be cooking it up. But it in terms of team comps it just seems so basic and one dimensional and I feel like they could really be innovative.

Just by stats alone, 100T looked the best in NA during this weeks groups games. +15 on what was considered to be the favorites in their group. I think they have potential to go 5-0, but I'm very certain they can qual to playoffs. Especially if they keep this upwards trend (and theres no signs of it stopping)

*0-5

.

Is it 2 or 3 teams, because last time when SEN won Iceland, NA got 3 slots in Berlin

Does top 2 or 3 qualify to this next masters

100t will make playoffs, and have a deep run in playoffs. They could POTENTIALLY, qualify to masters (This is under the assumption they keep getting better as quick as they are now, not saying they qual in their current form). The thing that’s impressive is just how quickly they are fixing their mistakes from knights, to open qual 1, to open qual 2. All players have star moments and every player / staff is hungry to win and they don’t seem to be slowing down.

One thing seangares was saying when building the roster is he didn’t want to have a weak map. We knew their split and fracture was good, but now their icebox and breeze look great too. And with more time to have a 7/7 map pool, where you aren’t perma banning maps is really dangerous.

They’re still so young, so there’s still so much more strats to add, and chemistry to be built which is scary.

I love 100t but how tf is winning both the maps you won 14-12 and dropping a map 3-13 convincing.

Who wins that?

After this qualifier, assuming no roster changes whatsoever whats the highest ranking NA this team could get? I think with time top 3

gotta be one of the most underrated moves. He joins faze and they instantly find success. They only lost 1 series so far when he joined. Had an upper bracket run to qualify for groups.

Sike

zexrow, was putting up insane numbers on sentinel. Basically won his team the Ghost series

Man just shit on ghost, GIVE HIM SOME RESPECT

zexrow

If so, how far they making it? If not, whats holding them back?

Can you see this for all players?

Why did brax quit he was so good. Any info on if he would ever come back?

Favorite: Zeta

Upset: Loud, G2, DRX, Optic, PRX

Realistically, what’s the highest rank new 100t roster could get? Top5, top3? I think they have the potential to be top 3 with enough time and practice

Are you talking about this? 😂

isnt it for Ukraine?

1. Repeat of the very first iteration of the 100t roster, where everyone besides asuna gets dropped after this masters for bigger names

OR

2. Guard 2.0 where they use the young fire power + veteran coaching staff to their advantage and grind 24/7 and become a top NA team

idk which tho

Who would win in a match / who would win the entire event?

DRX vs LOUD

Paper Rex vs Optic

Optic vs Guard

LOUD vs G2

nope
