I think he had wrist problems and pushed off surgery then went back to Overwatch. Don't know if he ever got the surgery or it healed when he came back to Talon

only real OGs remember The Guard from The Guard smashing pumpkins

seol "THE Korean Jett" dam

Sheydos carrying Gambit playing Reyna on Icebox

my goat being the first to jett dash into tiles from market on ascent will never be forgotten

LINK and Kryptix w/Sliggy coaching

didn't their owner go to jail for fraud or something, I'm still sad that Bren Esports didn't get to go to that Masters

I wanted to make these cards for a while which are like FIFA/Pokemon TCG-style cards for the VCT teams. I've made one team for each league so far and some special cards for Toronto and a few other special cards like Team of the Week, Throwback, and Icons cards. The three stats are First Duel (general firepower), Mid-Round (gamesense and util usage), and Anchoring (ability to hold down/control areas on Attack or Defense).

I wanted to see what roster people would put together for a hypothetical off-season World Cup roster for Korea since they have the most eligible players currently in the VCT Leagues. Just for Korea I only included players currently in the VCT but you can include Challngers/Retired/Streamers too if you want. I want to look at doing one of these for more countries and make a bracket in the future.
The rules are: Pick 5 Starters + 1 Sub, MAX 2 Players per VCT team, must have an IGL, and roles must make sense.

Here's my Shortlist:
BUZZ (DUEL) 🇰🇷 T1
IZU (FLEX) 🇰🇷 T1
STAX (INIT/IGL) 🇰🇷 T1
SYLVAN (CONT) 🇰🇷 T1
METEOR (SENT) 🇰🇷 T1
UDOTAN (SENT/FLEX) 🇰🇷 GE
HYUNMIN (DUEL) 🇰🇷 DRX
ESTRELLA (FLEX/IGL) 🇰🇷 DRX
MAKO (CONT/IGL) 🇰🇷 DRX
FREEING (INIT) 🇰🇷 DRX
FLASHBACK (DUEL/SENT) 🇰🇷 DRX
BEYN (INIT) 🇰🇷 DRX
AKAME (FLEX) 🇰🇷 DFM
T3XTURE (DUEL) 🇰🇷 GENG
ASH (INIT) 🇰🇷 GENG
MUNCHKIN (FLEX/IGL) 🇰🇷 GENG
KARON (CONT) 🇰🇷 GENG
FOXY9 (SENT) 🇰🇷 GENG
IVY (FLEX) 🇰🇷 NS
FRANCIS (INIT/IGL) 🇰🇷 NS
PERSIA (CONT) 🇰🇷 NS
STEW (DUEL) 🇰🇷 JDG
RB (INIT/FLEX) 🇰🇷 TEC

Here's my team:
Starters:
BUZZ (DUEL) 🇰🇷 T1
FREEING (INIT) 🇰🇷 DRX
MUNCHKIN (FLEX/IGL) 🇰🇷 GENG
KARON (CONT) 🇰🇷 GENG
METEOR (SENT) 🇰🇷 T1

Bench: AKAME (FLEX) 🇰🇷 DFM

I totally agree that for a team like 100T with the fanbase and clout that they have to be okay with always coming up short is not the right mindset. I agree that Asuna and Cryo are great characters and teammates but at this point the 100T roster has been Ship of Theseus'd around Asuna for so long and he's the only plank of the ship left to replace. Every roster regardless of players and coaches has always found a way to come up short and often choke in brutal ways after giving their fans hope. I personally think this last offseason was their best chance to make the change since Cryo looks best consistently on controllers specifically, and Asuna just lacks the elite consistency that a lead duelist at the top requires as well as not being able to play Jett since they seem to prefer Jett/Raze in their comps/map pool. Zander also hasn't had that pop-off yet in their games so far either, and Boostio has been repeatedly out-called and has fallen off hard mechanically too unfortunately. Mada and Verno literally showed them today what they could've had. In my opinion, Eeiu and Cryo(on controller only) are the only locks and everyone else including the coach have a big question mark next to their names.

here's the 2025 sheet. I'm a big VCT fan so its fun just watching the games and updating as the season goes on and looking back. you can make a copy and update it yourself too!: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BJIUkQwkOQ9fVrqTGwfxpwt5wLKsAL5dWewFw07PFso/edit?gid=0#gid=0

I have a google sheet that I updated throughout last season that was pretty much based on that idea. I have an updated one for 2025 too: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wxEZZ5Swbfa09lJbIAk0aP1q2Hb8X4KSqGorX6RhB90/edit?usp=sharing
