He has been a staple of world-class Overwatch since before 2018. He is one of the best players mechanically (better than all previous converted OW players) to ever touch Overwatch. He is a multiple season MVP candidate, although he never won. This guy is incredible and I hope he quickly adapts to the pro Val scene because this guy will without a doubt give us highlights comparable to the best Val aimers in the world. Look up his OW highlights, he's actually a monster.

I feel like you look at the team wrong. It's not they wanted cNed over Ardiis, but rather Ardiis wanted another team and cNed is probably the next best guy. There are a few other names you could throw in, but cNed is easily T3 in terms of people to take Ardiis' spot. He is both an EMEA champion and World Champion. He is proven across multiple LANs and has a similar individual peak to Ardiis. I do think Ardiis fit the vibe that FPX established this year more than Charles Ned, but I don't think it's a downgrade. He is most likely a side-grade and we should be okay with that. This core was one of the best in the world this year and there is no reason to believe that will change next year.

Not native but I study languages as a hobby, but I would recommend reading a lot. Don't worry about the level of the material as long as you push yourself. My biggest regret as a learner is that I wish I had better speakers than myself to practice alongside. If you need specific help lmk, I like to teach

I feel like Nismo is being hella slept on rn. Imagine a roster like BcJ, dephh, Ayrin, Nismo, Dicey. I don't see how this team is that different from old XSET besides the fact that Dicey and Nismo are unproven at majors. I have these 2 as some of the best talent in NA that hasn't been to a major yet. I haven't seen one person mention Nismo in all the rostermania posts and I don't know why. The dude absolutely styled on everyone in Stage 2 and yeah Ghost fell flat in playoffs, but Nismo is a star that will prove himself.

actually yeah wow good shit bro
