Tbh I dislike the icy signing as much as the next guy (there’s so many fa duelists with experience), but BeyN had t1 experience (as a stand-in) and overall more competitive experience. Icy’s last competitive match was in, frankly, lower stakes games.

My brain says lev, my heart says 100t

edit: oops though you meant americas in general, 100t for na

Xcurrate knows that two trips aren’t enough to stop the giga chad 4 man flank

I trolled (I still put t1 winning in my pickems lmao)

None of those are imports. Imports (in T1) are out-of-region players, so an import would have to be someone from amer/emea/china.

I don't see the vision with t1 beating geng (if we're going for "safest")

Geng has had much closer maps and performed better than t1 + t1 is going through igl change so

While Zest and Riza do have a slight role issue, they both played some flash initiator before, so they can learn much easier imo.

I'm kinda a fake Viet fan (I don't know how good YesIcan's English is :(((((( ) Although, I definitely think that is a good option. (NOOO MY VIET SUPER TEAM)

hmmm, true, obv I don't know how deep the internal issues go, but it might be easier to work around them than finding a different fa igl initiator.

Yay might be kept, but he'd most likely get switched to sentinel permanently (since he's shown he can't perform on duelist or initiator/flex) meaning Retla would be kicked (and that sucks)

Edit: I forgot about Riza. That might actually be the way they'll go

Honestly same lmao, I had to check the team page to realize he was still on the team xD

dsg and bleed could trade a player (probably juicy) for split 2. imo, yay and deryeon out, bring back crazyguy igl and juicy duelist. Deryeon caught in bad role issue (sentinel/secondary duelist but retla is sentinel and not double duelist meta) and yay has been underperforming.

Alternative: Retla and deryeon out, yay on sentinel and crazyguy back in for igl + initiator, juicy duelist. Personally, I dislike this because Retla has been performing really well, but tbh this is really the only option to keep yay on the team.

Edit: Another option is Riza instead of crazyguy. It is probably the better option too ngl

Tbh aspas ascent fries harder than his icebox no? Edit: I trolled I didn’t watch his last few icebox games (who likes watching icebox) pls disregard this ignorant comment!

Literally never put this guy on raze ever again 😭

egoist retired because he wanted to go focus on studies tho.

Why do they keep trying to force monyet raze :(((

At most jet lag lasts one week. Kickoff ended, at latest, March 3rd. Assuming they got on a flight 4 days after, they still had enough time to beat out the jet lag.

Act just restarted remember? Radiant lb is reset so obv there are imm/radiant players in acendant rn

Yeah, monyet played 6/8 maps on raze and its obvious that his raze doesn't fit in with the team. Realistically, they should just make him secondary controller and then put davai on sentinel or put monyet on sentinel and keep davai on secondary controller. Tbh, I didn't expect them to sign monyet to put him on duelist. Like, there were definitely better duelists if they needed one...

tbf they did have a lot of scrim time and they played in mainly unimportant tournaments where they didn't want to show off any strats

Tbh I think their main issue is that they’re trying to make Monyet like Jingg and that’s not happening. Bro looked amazing on controllers and looked unbelievably mid on Raze. imo just go back to single duelist comps and they’ll look amazing again

Because violent video games = want to do violence = joining military to do violence... or something along those lines

If you were around last year, you would be familiar with the format that is going on right now. (except this one is on a much much smaller scale) Basically, the idea is all 3 teams (mibr, g2, and sen) play each other and whoever gets the most wins gets to play in the next phase. Easy right? But what happens if there is a tie? Then it goes to map differential (basically who won the most maps comparatively (like +1 maps)). However, Sentinels won their first game 2-0, so if they won one map and lost the rest, they would be at 3-2. MIBR is at 2-3 and G2 would be at 3-3. Because sentinels would be +1 in maps, they would make playoffs! Hope this helps :P

We’ve seen this idea come out of other teams (albeit on a different scale by switching out flash iniators for recon iniator and running flash duelists instead), so it’s interesting to see a team take that idea of running flash duelists instead of flash iniators to the extreme

Carpe igl tho. Zest can aim better, but what about his calls?

Are my eyes deceiving me??? I just woke up and I see a TRIPLE duelist comp??? (Also yes my sleep schedule is giga fucked xd)

I would like to point out while they did win the map, he legit went 2 10 first half. Obv he woke up in second, but I feel like this performance was mediocre and probably shouldn’t be brought up here lmao.

Drop cryo sign sonofcar

I heard his entry is kinda mid tho and chamber isn’t great on every map anymore, so I think putting him on sentinel is a good middle ground tbh (on maps where chamber isn’t that great). And putting him on jett on split is probably better (run with generic double duelist comp).

tbh I think they need to shift yay off flex and onto sentinel and egoist onto flex. yay can perform on chamber and jett, but apparently his entry is subpar (probably a result of his chamber days). Therefore, they should just do what every other team does when they sign another duelist: put him on sentinel. Egoist has played flash iniator before, so his flash iniator is probably much better than yay's too.

tbh monyet on sova instead of davai. davai looks insane on the viper

I think they do have him on chamber on certain maps, probably just not the ones they played so far. Although, yay on neon is probably the most giga troll thing I’ve seen in tier 1 so far. I get skye tho since yay is used to first contact.

Today, I got honked at for stopping at a stop sign. Truly my bad.
