fair enough, most gc players couldnt even stand straight against t3 players, but riot dumps copious amounts of cash into gc so it isnt technically worthless

Sentinels dont necessarily need to provide info. The point of a sentinel is to be able to stall and hold space, while having immense stopping power. Although sage doesnt have any traps like all the others, making her much harder to play as a solo weak site sentinel, her slows and wall are pieces of stopping power. Also, deadlock doesnt hold flanks, and vyse wall on attack is much better for post plant. Holding flank, while useful, isnt required on most maps, rather just a feature. Where sage falls as a sentinel is that she doesnt have any long range abilities, traps, and the fact that her heal isnt that great at high levels, making so that she plays very one dimensionally, as just a wall mule.
w lev, def gonna help them a lot
academy team strat super underrated, teams that use it will prevail over the ones that dont
w crashies, would love to see him bounce back in 2025
yall downvoting him but hes right
talon needs to go full thai
cut frost, he hasnt been doing much as a coach and is all talk
cut governor, hes good but only as of late
cut ban, self explanitory
sign sscary, again self explanitory
sign ptc/cgrs, will slot in very well
raze is the best overall with fracture, split, bind, lotus looking like must pick maps but yoru is very good as a main duelist on haven abyss pearl as main duelist for slower teams and on split and bind as a second duelist for double dive
cmon riot bring back neon
Jqt narrate role swap is actually looking pretty good. However, if during the season they start to falter than narrate and zellsis should swap. zellsis obv played hella senti before joining sen, and is a very passive player that is comfortable playing slow lurks on attack and weak sites on defense, and narrate is an aggro entry player that is obv very good on flashes/fade. Not saying this needs to happen, but if the issue comes up i think it makes a lot of sense
c9 is a very potent org in esports, and has built a solid brand, alongside a history in val
ok tbf maybe i did him a but dirty, but overall i think hes a better flash initi than a viper
he aint bad but he hasnt been great in a minute. his kayo/breach is a lot better
many good players spread across many teams... not t2 but kru is looking armed and dangerous
almost perfect. would be perfect if it was in 1st person
idk its kinda hard to judge based on which years
tbf 95% of brazil's noise was made by loud
man brazil needs to make something happen... loud breaking up really did a number.
kangkang harbor masterclass incoming
chichoo neon disasterclass incoming
i mean yeah technically, but last year they scraped the bottom of playoffs. my list would be
c9 always does well in regular season and chokes playoffs. 1 loss to a random team during the off season in the long run doesnt mean much. geng and heretics didn't look that great in last offseason
logical
yeah well after these neon nerfs idk anymore
drx are a lot worse than people think... only good players are mako and maybe hyunmin
lev and c9 above 100t is crazy. Zander and bang are very similar players. Also if mibr didnt sign aspas but instead someone just as good as aspas yall would rank them bottom 3
shouldve changed narrate to like vookashu or rarga that way instead of t2->t1 it would be ascension winners which is much more specific than just t2->t1

sorted
c9 will win map 1 split overtime, moose fries out on viper and silences the haters, map 2 lotus nrg cook up with breach, kayo, fade, deadlock, clove comp and win 13-7, map 3 pearl 1st half is 11-1 nrg, c9 starts making a comeback and at 12-5 oxy loses a yoru 1v1 to ethan and nrg win
if mibr had a duelist that wasn't aspas but played exactly like aspas yall would clown them for not signing aspas but instead 5 random players
100T was relevant for 1 event, didn't even win
Jawgemo while good didn't achieve anything on eg
Com did alright, but he definitely wasn't the star on lev, give or take a map
it would be lowk hell. much easier for all the characters to be pretty mid to pretty good than have all the characters be really op to somewhat good
dog hes actually named edward...
Champs curse is a 3 year cycle
acend- went on a champs run after having a mid year, immediately afterwards got outclassed by the other teams
loud- lost players and results over a few years, slow torture and death
eg- immediately imploded and none of the players stirred much attention
edg- haven't won a single game since champs...
ik it's offseason, but edg were struggling in lans, and only really won champs bc they were on a run. feel like theyre going to crash and burn next year
Theoretically, mibr loses to 100t. C9 make playoffs (only other logical option would be lev/furia, but c9 were on the hot seat). Tokyo teams are loud, nrg, and c9. Loud either lose to c9 and still bomb out (although it would be much closer than vs eg) or narrowly beat c9 and face tl. They would most likely lose to tl, again a close match, and face nrg lower bracket, where they would get knocked out. On the off chance loud beats tl, they would lose to fnc, and lose in lowers to prx. If c9 beat loud, they would face tl, which i think would be a very 50/50 match (both teams were on a run). C9 either lose to liquid and lose to nrg in lowers, or if they beat liquid they lose to fnc and prx in lowers. If c9 lose to loud, they would either narrowly beat edg in lowers and lose to prx, or just get straight elimmed by edg. Only overall difference is 2nd place for tokyo is either nrg, prx, or maybe even edg instead of eg.
For champs, eg could either win lcq and the teams would be loud, nrg, c9, and eg for champs, or kru still wins lcq and the teams are loud, nrg, c9, and kru. If eg make champs (through lcq), they would play in kru's spot, and either narrowly make it out in first seed where they would beat fut in playoffs, and either barely beat loud, where they would go on an upper bracket run to win champs, or lose to loud, where they would probably beat edg, and face fnc. If eg beat fnc in lowers, they continue their lower bracket run, where they face either loud/prx in either lowers or grand finals, where they would probably win (in reality they faced loud lowers and prx uppers and won both). If eg beat loud in uppers, the upper final match would most likely be eg vs prx (as prx would have taken edg's spot), resulting in a very similar result to what actually happened. If eg finished second in groups, they face either fut/t1 r1 in uppers, beating them, then face drx, who they would also beat, resulting in a very similar result where uppers and grand is eg vs prx. If somehow edg doesnt make champs through lcq, prx would either go through an upper bracket run, where they would either win or lose to loud in grand finals. In terms of what it means for c9, they either beat edg, and then lose to drx and fnc, or lose to edg, beat blg and lose to loud.
I can't really predict what this means for the offseason, as already this was broad speculations, but it was at least based off of performances. In the end, the only difference would really be prx or loud would have been slightly more likely to win champs, and if eg loses the champs curse doesnt strike and we see a mid version of 2023 eg in 2024.
wdym trent is one of g2s most aggro players, the only other role he could play would be the viper
it makes more sense for him to get more comfortable on lotus than to switch off fade
jonah p on the other hand is very comfortable on viper, especially on maps where she plays as a sentinel (ie lotus, bind) and the only other role he could play would be on breach, which with the neon nerfs plus g2s overall playstyle means that it just doesnt make sense for them to run it
honestly if they only got rid of acc with slide that would have been good. It's the only reason neon was so busted in the first place
net is retired, keep moose (he'll show up again wallahi) also keep vic he has potential
good? whats the issue
ardiis
