crazier part is NV keeping 1 trick instead of trying to compete in the league. From a business/operations perspective (orgs main goal is to win and win international titles) you have two options: keep the 1 trick and hope it works out or replace him. Clearly they made the wrong decision and so to have a "graceful fall", you allow him to retire.

biggest publicity cop out in VCT - instead of benching or cutting Eggster, they "celebrate him" by him playing his 1 trick in their last match. Calling a spade a spade, man is retiring because he can't play any other agent to a high level (nor is he willing to put in the work to get better at other agents to keep NV competitive). NV would have been better off with Inspire this stage and have Demon1 and Keznit play double duelist and one of them flex but someone is smoking some good ganja thinking keeping a 1 trick after they kill his agent was the best move forward lol
