"why do you think teams have dedicated igls in the first place"

I can argue the same and say "why do you think teams have dedicated smokes players in the first place" "why do you think teams have dedicated duelists/entry players in the first place" "why do you think teams have dedicated sentinel players in the first place"

idk what you were trying to accomplish by stating that teams look for igls since teams need players to fill every role.

Furthermore, I've been backing up my arguments with facts and reasoning such as bonecold going -42 kill deferential in the last 4 games and the very obvious lack of shotcalling and decisiveness as proven by them failing to qualify past the group stage as the 2nd lowest team in the group. You've been just stating hypotheticals with 'nobody else can probably igl tho even if we don't give them a chance'

no

-42 kills in last 4 games, team has lacked decisiveness and shot calling recently compared to other teams

huh? you literally said nothing meaningful.

All you did was assume nobody else had shotcalling skills without giving them even a chance.

DRX 2-1

have you been living under a rock? just look at the stats, he's been a consistent bottom fragger not being able to pull his weight as much as the rest of his team, on top of what seems to be mediocre decision making and lacking decisiveness compared to other igls as of recently. He's gone -42 kill deferential in the last 4 games which is huge.

don't get me wrong. he's a good player. but if I had to choose someone to replace it would definitely be him

Is there some rule that says igl's cannot be replaced? If anything, to improve, maybe it's their igl that should change since they've seemed lackluster in their decision making.

bonecold

Smoke, dash in sideways, or just dash forwards and try to snap to one side while mid dash, usually checking the more common/more difficult corner to clear as you dash. And no it is not your job to clear every corner, usually u can only usually clear one.

lmao optic even Breach ulted an empty site they got so confused

round 9

W for chickenjoe, another aspiring writer coming to fruition

lulz go watch his videos after right click nerf, still rushing into enemy teams and acing with jett knives left clicks only

Good for him, but deep down I'm a bit disappointed not to see him play competitively

sick too

Russia
(I would say kudos to Lithuania tho for producing so many top players despite their significantly smaller population)

they'll announce a coach and then tweet something cringe with the basic gist of 'our full potential is unlocked, try to play against us now'

W Daniel return after 3 months

Hate left jadeite? Possible they could go to new F4Q roster? He plays a much needed sentinel role too

nobody ever doubted him after plays like these

W chickenjoe first article I think

I didn't even know he was a writer, I was casually chatting in a mobile games thread with him yesterday

WGS stood no chance in Korea. It wasn't until more recent roster changes such as Godlike coming in December and dramatic improvement from the rest of the squad (and in my eyes Sylvan being the most) who basically revived the team into a new, much more competitive one

in the group stage, they had an overall negative round win deferential on Bind

I haven't followed the Japanese region much so I can't say much about Korean players competing in Japan, but the few times I've seen him Foxy9 has looked impressive as well. Sylvan would be my choice, but there's definitely more than 1 correct answer.

poggers did you see his 4k clutch just rn on the main Valorant twitch stream? I don't know what you're smoking but he's been improving so much if you've been following the scene

In their defense, this is one of their worse maps (they got thrashed on Bind in international games), but still they seem not as on point as before, or it's other teams getting closer in skill.

Yep same for Sylvan. He played for aNg DarkHorse, ZF Gaming, and then AUTOCRACY, which in all due respect, were not exactly the most competitive teams. He joined WGS about halfway through last year without much success, only recently in this current competition being able to really shine along with his team which is steadily improving.

neither is anyone else if you want to be that specific, everyone you mentioned on that list "existed" and was playing the game before too you know, just that their rise to prominence has been more recent

KR = for me this smokes chap named Sylvan has been looking extremely sold - WGS

Xeta Meta!
impressive 1.64 kda with 240 acs as a breach and sova, set up team well for success, mvp for this game I think but Ban did extremely well on their jett role as well

ty Joe :) watch us compete in the April monthly qualifiers on twitch if we make in the top 8 for NA next month ^7^

(also I live in California but am half Korean in case you were wondering about my flag and me being from NA not checking out)

:(

bruh I'm actually good with him tho unlike the random trickshotting mortises which throw games left and right, like I said my team and I are statistically top 0.01% in NA

aw rip one day hopefully you have talent

Mortis :)

:D

I'm pulling off an all-nighter trying to do a physics lab T_T hope you're doing better than I am

Brawl Stars (play competitively with team, top 0.01% NA)
Clash Royale
Clash of Clans

basically the Supercell games

lol

also there's way more than 10 people but I get what you mean, it's not a full house
