I think it 2-1 TSM, or 2-1 RiSE. Rise have proven to be a pretty good team considering how much of the underdogs they were. They took a map off of SENTINELS so I think its gonna be close

How I would rework . I agree with most of the rankings but I have issues with some

10. T1
11. GenG
12. Rise
13. Luminosity
14. Envy(Envy are not no.2 lmao. Theyre a good team but I think are just a bit shy out of Top 5)
15. FaZe(Dominated beforehand and made it to finals. Easily Top 5 team)
16. 1SM(Big comeback and they beat FaZe too)
17. 100T( Consistent team, they also are the third seed too)
    2.XSET( They beat 100T and made it to finals, I think they deserve at least second or third.)
    1.SEN( They won the first LAN and have won every other event. No real argument here)

homies actually on something to put Liquid and FNATIC on B Tier XD. Even if Liquid arent S, they're at least A. I dont know how he puts G2 as S lmao

Yay is a good player but there isnt a need for him on the team. Having another sub would just be spending unnecessary money. While Yay is good, there isnt a need for him on the team. Besides theyre willing to have the other players switch to duelist if they really feel like it. nitr0 played jett on the match vs XSET and Hiko played raze before. While yay certainly is an outstanding player, there is no need for him on the team right now

T1 2-1 TSM or TSM 1-2 T1. It wont be an easy fight either way. I feel like both teams offense could be improved, but I feel like T1's is a bit better. I think T1 will will this, but it could go either way

100T lost to SEN 2-1. It was a close game. Theres a chance that they win, but theres also a chance that they lose

2-1 100T. V1 good team, but 100T will pullout on top. It aint gonna be an easy game. Honestly I want 100T to win but this could go either way

Look im all for reform, but releasing all of them is quite questionable

You're the only person saying stupid shit like Astra isnt viable, Omen is still the de facto controller lmfaooo

Oh yeah, this is assuming you keep all the players. It would be pretty hard to sign new ones as most of the known names are already locked in contracts

Idk abt the roster, but TSM get 21 mil in the pocket every year for the next ten years so they have the budget but not the brains

SEN uses astra more than they do Omen. Zombs picks Astra most of the time.

I disagree. TSM still dont know what the fuck they're doing with their players. Its not really them, its more like the org still hasnt evolved with the game. You grow or you die. That being said, its really unfair to go like NA is going to fall. Also, XSET Zekken pointed out some good things. Just because some Tier 1 teams fell to Tier 2 teams doesnt mean we should ignore the fact that these Tier 2 teams put in the effort to take down these giants.

But yeah going like TSM= NA Scene is really stupid. It just means that there are better teams rising right now

TSM's peak was arguably reaching second place at first strike after they fell to 100 Thieves 3-1. Since then they've been losing to teams which otherwise they shouldnt be losing to. First was getting 13-1'd to Immortals, and then with the rematch against 100 Thieves they lost to Hiko in a 1v4 while he was on thirty hp. Now its NOBLE, which is probably one of the better of Tier II teams which they lost 2-1. Heres what I think they should do to the roster

1. Incorperate Astra and rework the team comps. The fact that they still are playing omen as the main controller when Hes slowly being phased out is really really stupid. There is obviously a better controller who is more flexible and can do much more(Astra). The comps they run are really old. They need to get WARDELL to play characters other than Jett and if he cant do it he should be dropped. Jett one-tricks are never a longterm solution. Just look at Dicey and HYUNH.

2. Rework the roles of some of the players. Making players play roles that they dont want to or they arent good at is a crippling weakness.

3. Actually use different comps and actually study teams to try to figure out what they'll do. TSM has like two different comps but are essentially the same, I think they should just change them up. Or just have a lot of different comps that way you are extremely flexible
