Loud Fix: Atomic Bomb in their HQ

Top 8/9 In Americas

Fighting for playoffs

Its gonna be a banger

You guys forgot that FURIA has a pretty solid academy team — for sure, 2 or 3 players from there are going to get promoted.

Indo Winning a international is fire ngl

EG X RRQ - Yay VS Crazyguy

Its actually happening, they even get a formal agreement

Nope.

God‑forsaken region, Allat

How can this damn region have so many technical problems?

Names aren't the problem, now it's just a matter of waiting to see what FURIA will do.

Tuyz / GuuhRvn / Above
Heat / Swag
Basic / Skz
Siduzord / Desire IGL
Zanatsu / Loss

If you ever learn how to read, you’ll notice I brought up two scenarios exactly because of that.

Yeah, but nothing that two months of intensive English training can’t fix

If LOUD does bring in new players:

• Basic - Cauanzin
  I know he's going through a terrible slump right now, but if LOUD is truly aiming to compete at Champions this year, they need to either bring in a star-level player or somehow bring back prime Cauan. But as Lukxo has already shown, there's no such thing as players who need to be "shaped for the stage" — stars are born ready to shine.

• Siduzord - Tuyz
  Siduzord has been a solid fragging IGL in Tier 2 for nearly a year, while also playing the Initiator flex role. With him, LOUD could maintain their double-initiator structure throughout the year without needing to drastically change their playbook. It’s a natural fit.

• Sato - Dgzin
  I’ll be straight to the point here: Dgzin has performed well since joining LOUD, and I honestly don’t think he needs to be replaced.
  However, it looks like he recently broke up with his girlfriend, and — as we saw in the match against EG — it clearly affected his gameplay.

Now, I’m not saying this will keep affecting him for the next three months. Of course not. But just like with Cauan’s slump, we can’t count on things magically getting better overnight.

Again, this is not a call to bench Dgzin. He doesn't deserve that. But if LOUD is planning for results now while also setting the foundation for next year, Sato would be a strong name to consider.

If I had to make changes to LOUD, I would start like this:

Coach: Bonkar or Shaw
Right now, I think Bonkar is the best option. MIBR already showed that internationalizing a team can work — and in my opinion, he's by far the best coach available on the market. He’s experienced, strategic, and has the kind of game sense that could elevate the team to another level.

Shaw is also a strong candidate. He’s worked with Lukxo before and is known for his ability to develop talent and build off-meta comps — using meta agents in creative, effective ways. That’s a valuable edge.

Bottom line: both are great options. The decision depends on what LOUD wants to build for the future.

Now the trickier part: changing the roster.
First of all, the big question is: is LOUD actually planning to make changes to the roster?
With that in mind, I’ve outlined two possible scenarios.

1. No roster changes
   Even without changing players, there are key adjustments that could shift the team's playstyle and improve individual performance.

Tuyz as Tejo, Cauanzin as Initiator Flex
Tuyz performed well as a flex, and what's even more impressive is how much he improved from the Sentinels match to the EG match — all in a short period of time.

On the other hand, Cauanzin seems to be struggling as a Tejo player. He’s always been a strong initiator, playing almost like a duelist — using his skills to support himself and create space.

In my view, moving Cauan back to agents like Breach, KAY/O, Sova, and Fade would be the right call. He'd be back in his comfort zone, and Tuyz would only need to master a single agent — which is definitely easier than learning a whole new role.

2. Change in mentality
   More than anything tactical, LOUD needs a shift in mentality.
   Right now, the team feels like it lacks a winning mindset. STK talked about “doing a barbecue” after a loss — and while I don’t think the problem is a lack of accountability, it’s clear that there’s no strong winning culture.

A coach isn’t on stage controlling the players, but it is his job to teach and enforce protocols — even if it takes some tough love. You need someone who can show the team what to do in a 4v2, how to play an eco round, how to stay locked in.

And that’s what I hope a new coach will bring.

It's actually so good seeing them lose.

Kangkang without his Jett or Neon is so ass

Who's the best in Korea now?

SOMEONE HELP HIM

Congrats on staying alive

That's like choosing a pregnant woman to race in a 100m sprint against. But is this case the woman is Elaine Thompson-Herah

Which player from the partnered teams would you face in a 1v1, Vandal only, with your life at stake?

FNS doesn’t count.

The furia case is just sad

I think this comparison is a bit unfair. Sacy does a lot of work within the teams that we don’t see 80% of the time. Skill-wise, I’d say Leo for sure, 100%. But for everything else, Sacy. He’s done an incredible job on every team he’s played for. He helped shape aspas and less into who they are today, and he’s an extremely smart player. For anyone interested, check out the VOD reviews he posts on YouTube — it’s great content that really shows how much he brought to the game. He might be one of the players who understands mid-rounds the best, overall.

I actually agree with FNC X LOUD, if they played that map again 100 times, loud would win 99x, actually 1/100 chance of happening

Dont talk about the GOAT like that

Is Governor in a Top 5 worst players in the world today?

Looks like they went after Verno, but he chose MIBR, what a insane world we live in

Weak teams should atleast use the meta, imagine using a comp like this against a real team like G2, they could never fight A Main with this comp

WHAT A ASS COMP, WE'RE NOT IN 2023

LMAO

His future is so bright

The real ¨bizarre¨ thing in the end of all this story is how racist Krü fans are, Bizarre.

This guy being a sub makes ZERO sense. PRX trippin' hard

Benching Mindfreak doesn’t make sense, huh? Even if he was playing slightly below the rest, keeping Jinggg limits the team’s pool by at least 50%.

We are so cooked...

.

Like i said up there, would be a lot better see they playing with Forsaken on Yoru than Jingg on phoenix, but they have a plan right?....

Someone save them

Yeah, they dont need to run the meta comps, but atleast they could use meta characters

I know, but its not so hard, just put Forsaken on Yoru, Dav4i on Vyse and Jingg on smokes 💔

This comp is so ass 💔

Furia has more aimers, but they are all aim no brain, TS would just need to not play dumb and they can win easily
