Alright so KPI in Spain might be the actual org going for that Russian talent borderline tier 1
KPI is rumored to go full Russian. This year and idk about other leagues, but at least in Spain, players who have played 2 splits in Spain will be counted as regional players this year (It also works like this in LOL)

Insider and Bisk are regional players now, so they need 1 more regional player. The only other regional players who speak Russian are vokashu who has also played 2 splits. Other options could be falltw who married Poetite case hydra player, or even MiniBoo ( I might be wrong but I believe Boo used to stream putting [RU][LT][EN], so I'm just gonna assume him and MiniBoo both speak it xD)

Other than 3 of those, KPI is free to sign 2 other Russians of their will and have 5 russians. This roster could be scary for VCT.

VIT what doing

Goated signing for any team

If you think TL's only problem was soulcas you're clueless

Yeah nothing is confirmed, but the org is already creating hype about it, it's minimum one of the 2. They wouldn't do that for no reason

And Istambul in the background yes. Riens and Woot are the 2 most likely pick ups as of now

Woot

Idk who tf IGLs

It’s not random. Been knowing him and several other under 18 Turks would be tier 1 for more than a year now. Just gotta follow the scene a little bit

In EMEA everything seems fair

They have many more options than that. Scream might not make sense, but you do not need a Jett now and Jamppi can play the Op with chamber. So you really only need a Raze. All good Raze’s in EMEA are under contract but TL has money. Trexx (KOI might accept for a decent amount), Zyppan (NAVI might do more than 1 change), CLOUD (Someone already tried but it’s expensive)

Boo and Benjy staying it’s already pretty much confirmed, not an opinion, mixwell is 50/50. About cNed not sure

The information is that he can pretty much choose, excluding NAVI and FNC and the 2 Turks everyone else would want him. He has the decision

It’s probably just off season tournaments

Scream is out, no chance he stays. Happy is still the most likely option tho

It’s really not for several reasons. Alright let’s take the scenario that G2 is the 11th org and that’s who Riot goes for.

Riot helps the 5 players and G2 reach an agreement for the slot. Wtf is M80 gonna say? I spent all my fucking money in this, grinded, got second place and now a team that was shit through out the whole year is getting the slot over me? Why would I give it a try next year?

Yeah players like zeek Bonecold Koldamenta etc will have to do a reset year on tier 2 and then comeback if they earn it

Yeah with starxo helping and there was always doubt around the IGL role in Acend
BaddyG IGLed in the second half of VIT’s last season and apparently Destrian did most of this season

Def not, he has to stop IGLing on every project he starts, he is not good IGL

Letting the players pick an org is not an option that is on the table and that makes sense 100% whether people want to see it or not. Riot picking the org makes a little bit more sense, but I can still see a million reasons why it is not a good idea

He is very reliable and everything he reports you can take it as a done deal. However everything that you see on here that is not reported on his twitter means it's not done yet or at least the source is not good enough yet. Still is helpful to have an idea of everything going on

Only 3 actually written reports are on RunneR, TH, KOI and KCorp

The not paying salaries part in Valorant is not true, team hasn’t had problems of that sort. Problems coming more from the Rogue part of KOI, so the projects that were involved in that part are struggling more. That being said KOI does not have a big budget no, doesn’t mean they are not still building a normal roster and the buyout for those players is just as high

Pretty much, several EMEA teams are trying to get him already and is in conversations with them

ardiis is out tho

Riot can kick you out of franchising if they are not happy with what you bring into the league. Only every 4 years but still

How tf is that fair

Sg in Valorant is APAC, it can be APAC or China, but not both. China is a VCT region now

You can't make an exception for 1 league and not the others

Then there is a problem on the roster. Only 1 import is allowed on VCT as far as we know

Sg is not part of that region tho, it would technically be an import

Kiles is signed with a very competitive roster in Case to try to ascend
Enzo is extremely wanted by several teams

No info on anyone else

Ig one of the 2 signaporeans if not both are Chinese. Simply because of the import rule

Idk if the sentinel id the role he is gonna be tried out in

KOI is not keeping Wolfen, he’s technically out, but will be allowed to take part on the try outs with other 25 players, if he’s better than the others he could be picked up again

We’ll see

I wouldn’t be so sure they sticking together

And that is why you don’t allow any org into VCT

Look, Liquid’s problem is not their players, that is obvious. So it is a problem of another sort, Sayf and Redgar seem to be the 2 biggest personalities on the team and they don’t seem to work together. So obviously it’s all speculation but if you had to replace one of the 2, imo it’s way easier to replace a duelist than it is to replace an IGL nowadays

Bro if you actually read the thread yk what the actual rumor is, and it does not say he’s getting benched

Do we know any other members of the roster

Ty

Why would NAVI be replaced out of franchising
First of all that can only happen every 4 years, not every year. And second what have they done to deserve that?

Matter or fact falltw is technically Spanish now too xD

I think Kristal and Unfake are my favorite options out of those, heavy firepower IGLs that would fit pretty well since both Sayf and starxo are strong mid round callers that can help them as rookies

I wanna cope like you but it’s way too early. If they do manage to get Sayf it is a big W, specially with the changing meta since he’s really flexible. But it is really hard that it happens as of now

And then there is the IGL situation, who

Yes you got it wrong. Koldamenta is 100% gone, Wolfen is technically gone but is also gonna take part in the tryouts so there’s a smaller chance. The other 3 are supposed to stay

KC is thinking about Enghh or Happy

Maybe, I felt like it was tier 1, but you're right he didn't specify so could be tier 2, not much money in tier 2 tho

What facts lol. TTR didn't get picked up because they're shit, if they were good they would have been picked up, as simple as that. No team has ever qualified to ascension on any region without being picked up, that's the fact right there, everything else you said it's "An opinion based on hypotheticals"

Alright man let's just agree to disagree then because we're clearly not getting anywhere

No my friend no, in 100T all players and coach can want to stick together but Nadeshot has the power to say no, you've done shit, you're out. Who does that in an FA team? What if the core splits up? What if the coach the IGL and the duelist want to bench the other 3? Who tf has the power is what I'm saying

So? Idk the point there
