there is such a deep selection of high quality players to choose from, if half of the ascension players from (ase, nip, ra) don't get picked up and these teams maintain their current rosters, then they're actually trolling.
these 4 rosters need heavy upgrades, so moves better be made

or nova, all 3 of those teams need upgrades

They must have read this because damn

Yeah but yoman has stated that he wants to join the coaching staff of ra if that happens I think

Please make the comeback, I really want to see this team in the cn league, and if you lose, please stick together and get signed by wolves/jdg/nova. It would be criminal not to have the second best Chinese team as of late not in tier 1
Regards- a fan of Ra

Zeno probably, I’m sure they could find a Chinese region smokes player

50% win rate bind
42% wr lotus
Never played sunset

I’d say liquid is still better, gm8 just played better than Apeks in one match, which happened to be the finals

Yes, he’s no kang kang or stew, but imo he’s one of the better players in the Chinese scene, great flexibility, pretty good aim, some of the best game sense, and carried ase against Ra last night. He should definitely be picked up by nova/wolves/jdg

as a celtics fan, i just feel bad for the pistons. They should have won that game

Now this, is a great bait

BONKERS IS BACK BABY
the boys are back to terrorise whichever korean team makes ascension again
anyways
Minimise - (igl) initiator
rdeew - flex
maple - duelist
tixx- smokes
sinaway - sentinel
(this team is pure hopes)
oce franchising here we come

hopefully im not too late but
thailand (arguably the most promising scene) nkt, fs, xerxia and MiTH
vietnam- fancy
Philippines - naos or oasis
japan- fennel, scarz
sa area- True ripperz (really underrated)
korea- dplus or incheon on sla2ers (if they pick up k1ng, zest and rb)
indonesia - boom or dominatus
oce - (edit) - nvm bonk is back
hk- ( i wouldnt have a clue) 'one team' maybe

Ra 2-1
Martin legacy game incoming

Winner gets a Centrelink payment and a voucher to the local bottle-o

masters darwin

I like stew, but I just think that saya is better, proven talent, comfortable in tier 1, and more flexible (neon)

You can probably do better
K1ng (igl) - sentinel
Mako- smokes
Sayaplayer - duelist
Stax or rb -initiator
C0m- (he has duel citizenship) sova/viper flex
I think this team is arguably the best 5 you can make

Get him in franchising, Russia keeps on producing the cracked players farming either China or Japan

i know, i saw, im the second biggest self proclaimed bob fan after hacknaija.
But i can pray

hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby

watch me cook
crashies - sentinel (has experience on senti and can play kj really well)
com- viper (hopefully smokes as well
chronicle- flex
cauanzin- initiator
cryo or cned - duelist

this team (or really any korean tier 2 team) could do the funniest team and just certify ascension 2024.
On their roster they currently have a duelist (jaebin), a smokes player (nakji) and a sentinel player (wix)
They could keep nakji and wix, bring in king, zest and rb, and in my opinion dominate tier 2 Korea.
a potential roster could be
Rb - duelist
Nakji- smokes
zest - initiator
Wix - kj/cypher
k1ing- (igl) viper/flex
and Jaebin as the 6th.
coach - Munghoon
I know this is extremely niche, but this roster in my opinion would tear through the Apac ascension.

g2 bob? could it be

as expected, just wanted to know if it was made official, but thank you anyways :)

Wait did they announce something, who’s on the roster besides crashes, vic and marved

i dont think benkai is the igl, russ is

THE LITTLE MAN

i have no idea whats happening with the eg boys, but they are all too talented to not being in franchising. Also i appreciate the cooking compliment

okay hear me out, c0m has dual citizenship with korea, so theoretically he's not an import, plays the same role as zest (sova, viper). If Eg splits up, i really think c0m would be a great fit for this team if he can communicate with them.
imagine a team of
Buzz - duelist
mako - smokes
stax - initiator/flashing initiator (secondary caller)
c0m - sova/viper
k1ng - sentinel (igl)
coach - anyone but termi
this teams kinda goes hard

i would pay large sums of money for this to happen, please, drx gods, make apac great again

oh so just an edgy toxic internet loser?

That’s what I wanna know, I’ve never heard of him

congrats guys we did it
lets shoot for 4

yeah, definitely, you should put a 1 infront of that .70, you'd be more correct

i would trust hamsters on wheels to run a better tournament than this production team at this point

well thats 1

over/under 3 tech pauses this best of 3

congrats korea on 2024 ascension!!!

runner is dropping 70

Yeah your right, I’m equivocating the low ceiling of this team with its firepower, I don’t really care though I don’t think this team is very good

Assuming Ra win ascension, and ase get picked up by wolves or Nova, then there’ll be a solid 5-6 teams which are good (Edg, ra, fpx, te, blg and Ase)
Tyloo and Tec are bottom half teams, all gamers is bit worse than them, and nova, wolves, and jdg need to rebuild.
Right now it might be the worst region but it’s got a lot of potential

If nova, wolves and jdg don’t upgrade their teams, then yes, but I assume they’ll upgrade their teams, but right now those 3 are the bottom 3

I’m not saying they’re the least by Mibr have to be up there, I just think it’ll be a repeat of last year without tzoxin’s miracle
