uh i'd say top 6 are good

why

wouldnt have even disagreed with you 3 weeks ago
2-0 DRX tho wtf have talon been doing

as if yoru will ever be viable

south korea is just drx lmeo

banger

difficult to determine whether one shit is nastier than another

Foxy9 will be replacing Zest.

BuZz is clearly one of the best Jett players in the league, but unlike Aspas, his team doesn't always play around his very good Jett.
Instead, he plays Raze on maps like Fracture and Split, which are more suited for Raze.
This should be solved with the addition of Foxy9, who is really good at both Jett and Raze.
Stax said that DRX wouldn't be playing double duelist, which would mean that Foxy9 is going to be the only duelist on the team.
So the new roles would be:

• Stax: Initiator
• MaKo: Controller
• Foxy9: Duelist
• BuZz: Flex
• Rb: Flex

Of course, this depends on whether or not Foxy9 is going to replace Zest.
Thoughts on the new roster?

100t should've always been worried

forgot lol i was looking at weird website.
navi clearly on par with drx

Just assessing strong/popular teams in no particular order.

NRG: crashies is one of the best initiators, and FNS is as far as I know one of the best IGLs as well. Honestly, I've always been a bit skeptical of Victor, but he was still a valuable part of OpTic so I won't count him out. S0M showed up really nicely at LOCK//IN and I can never forget ardiis' clutch against DRX. I'd at least consider NRG an NA superteam, if not a global one.

DRX: If Zest or Rb are the weakest links, then DRX has to be a superteam. stax and buzz are two of the best intiators/duelists, while I personally consider MaKo to be the best controller right now.

C9: Not even a question after yay left.

LOUD: All members of the team are equally valuable, in my opinion, and they're equal to the highest standard.

100T: Noteworthy members of Cryo and bang. I didn't see much from Cryo at LOCK//IN, but I think that's just because he was on Omen for whatever reason. bang is great, but not comparable to MaKo or Tuyz. But even if Cryo was Derke level or bang was MaKo level, Asuna, Stellar, and Derrek are not a "superteam" core.

FNATIC: Same assessment as LOUD.

SEN: Superteam on paper with core of pANcada, Sacy, and Zekken. Unlucky that they went up against FNATIC first, so I can't really assess them yet.

that's funny

drop all 5 and buy out drx

buzz is the only one i can think of rn
surely there are more though

i don't see your point. are you saying that their current roster isn't an issue?

just drop players for better ones
how could 100T expect massive differences in results if they've kept 4/5 players?

rare w take from this weird mf

before this match, 100T was an "obvious favorite." That's why FUT is an underdog, and that's why 100T isn't nearly as good as we thought they were.

perform extremely well against actual top-tier teams
the last we've seen of those top-tier matchups were at Champions

interesting that you think NA is any better than EU

but they won't win shit

Bubble Tea is best associated with (and was created by) Taiwan.

Has he ever put up a performance at an international competition?
Like I'm actually just curious because I see a lot of clips of him, but none of them are on international.

be racist

ain't no way that's even a rivalry
stax is perhaps the best initiator in the world

easily on par with stax for best initiator in the world

real tbh

stax or crashies. can't say that trent is on their level.

phoenix = penicsu

bro's fingers are too fat

W take

booba esport

still good. definitely not the best.

delusional

NO BEATING JAY "ALREADY" WON

It's because GC teams are chosen this way.

1. They aren't a guy
2. They're a good player
   If you prioritize a different trait before someone's skill, it's only natural that the scene as a whole won't be as good.
   Note that I'm absolutely not suggesting that men are naturally better.

HOLY SHIT MARVED BEST CONTROLLER
I TAKE BACK ALL THE TIMES I SAID MAKO WAS THE BEST

actually intelligent person

lmao

sinatraa marved jonahp trent net
assuming that sinatraa and marved are free since they're not on there lmao

i forgo about nrg bruh im dumb
yeah i'm picking nrg as fav for NA

the fact that 100t is the best team in the region considering they've only replaced will with cryo is concerning.
yeah, cryo makes the team a lot better, but 100t wasn't that great to begin with

all the teams feel underwhelming
i understand that they're all inexperienced as teams

but at this point São Paulo's just going to be mainly EU vs DRX
maybe with PRX and some south american countries getting a decent run

no way ur talking about fns

SEA fans like to shit on KR, so KR has come to hate SEA.
JP and KR have always been competitive with each other even outside of esports.
SA fans chill ngl

Bro's a lil salty that DRX beat Fnatic

stax

sinatraa, marved, dizzy(sinatraa's friend iirc), PROD, and zombs
ig zombs is pretty good too, but with prod it's honestly a 4v5
