Just saw the GenG thread about coach Bail stream, hopefully Lakia can recover soon, but he's still in contract with IGZIST and hope he plays with them until he recapture his form post injury.
Seoldam case is a weird one, cause even Bo Dork said he has offers from tier 2 NA teams... maybe he just doesn't want to relocate. I remember 1 stream where smth was teasing Seoldam about him playing chamber more often and Seoldam been playing customs a lot too. I feel like Seoldam would jump into CR 3rd Apex roster member if he have the chance instead.
I agree with Astell going back KJ/Cypher, Rion is a better controller.

any comment on Lmemore? Guessing he didn't make it due to language barrier?
What about Elmapuddy role on the team? Is he gonna be learning Korean?

from his twitter looks like he hit radiant in KR and NA too.

Suggest: most likely to be the main player Detonation build its core roster around.
Seoldam: Probably leaving Valo to be CR 3rd Apex roster member, as he's been playing with many pro apex player.
Astell: Terrible, after the astra nerf, this guy always refuses to take fights always want to rotate and in CR pro matches as their IGL they spent all their utility before even taking site as attacker. Speak very good japanese tho.
Medusa: Can speak japanese, Luck his way into 2021 CR roster due to being part of Bakemon, benched as soon as Bazzi joins and his time at reject wasn't all that impressive either.
FiveK: Feel like he still got it, but probably very comfortable at being a streamer rn.
Lakia: As talked in BoDork stream, Lakia been performing very poorly at multiple franchise teams scrim tryout, feel like he's not adaptive enough to current meta, might still somewhat dominate in JP teams.

Don't really know enough about others mentioned, but 1 player I want to see returning is Bunny. He speak quite decent English when he's playing ranked and his Raze can be useful to some teams since most korean duelist all play Jett but rarely Raze.

According to sources, the rookie outperformed other experienced candidates in scrims to secure his spot in the team. However, the organization plans to sign another player and move BeomJun as a sixth man

This is great to see, not only he got his chance to prove his worth, he did it on the most important match to start his career.

A consistent presence at the top of APAC Radiant leaderboards

seen his twitter, not just APAC radiant, but KR and NA radiant leaderboards too. Excited to see if he's gonna get a match or 2 in Brazil maybe T1 gonna rotate player for kickoff tournement to see what he's like in a tournament environment.

Pacific: T1
EMEA: Team Liquid
Americas: Leviatán

I remember seeing JP pro player streamer say this to teammate in ranked game "come play for JP team, u get good money here!". If assuming this was true than players on JP team might have insane buyout money that org might not invest on JP player that has little to no international experience.

Seeing from his twitter, this guy is can make top Radiant in NA, Asia and KR. Definitely a player that can play on the level of pro players on any region. Judging from the T1 roster video this guy will play smokes too. Looking forward to see this guy plays in Franchise!

Nice tier list, u should open the link and fill them out.

Speaking of Filipinos/Indo. EJAY & Fl1pzjder just duo against the Susanto Bro on Breeze and got destroyed 13-2.

you cant have those D tier teams being in same tier as RRQ, RRQ needs a separate lower tier.

The biggest problem with APAC is the language barrier. Too many countries with different languages makes it difficult. English level proficiency regarding team/strategy meeting between 6 players + coaches is hard enough already.

If curry and Steel getting Asian countries citizenship sure why not.

Signing multiple duelist pre much explain if other org wants to sign a new duelist, "come buy from us, give us money" kind of vibe.

Feel like Lmemore had offers a while back (RRQ/GenG), but news regarding Unfair/Underpaid contract goes public and people suggesting the 48/72 hour wait response thing just made org realised this guy is leveraging to get better offers and NOT INTERESTED to join. If signing Lmemore giving public this kind of image, better sign someone else instead.

I think we qual to Franchise dude, like RRQ the best Filipino team, we smashed them in scrims, not smashed them like we beat them and then their excuse is that they were making Indo team or some shit and they stopped the scrim.

this real?

Indo org takes advantage of Indonesia minimum wage of Rp4.65 million or USD $300/month

If team only having 5 player roster with just ONE player having visa issues to international tournament and cant get replacement in time = automatic forfeit. 6 player roster would make more sense. If there's any chance of international tournament held in America, can easily see any russian/SEA player not able to get VISA in time.

Pacific: Xccurate, Seoldam, Patiphan, Xnfri, Sayaplayer

riot made a rule change that only allows 1 NA import and ban doesn't count as a non-import even with dual citizenship

so doesn't that technically mean they would allow 1 EMEA import too? Would having 1 NA + 1 EMEA import be allowed?

jdfaker 6th PRX member confirmed

for EDG in specific Kang Kang as seen in Yinsu interview he speak very little english. I've seen Haodong speak basic english in foxz stream. Basic rank calls communication they should be able to... But when it comes to strategy meeting/discussion by coaches and team synergy good level of english understanding is needed.

if u speak Indo in his stream he will roast/make fun of you. If u speak english ur safe.

literally just asked this on Mindfreak Stream. He confirmed it.

every teams have strength in certain maps than others, for t1 teams to completely steamroll t2 teams in EVERY SINGLE MAP is unrealistic.

GE pre much confirmed that they will trim down their 10 players to 6 after Brazil.

Argh Argh Q: OK riot we'll sign the 3 minimum indo requirement to satisfy our fanbase, but that won't stop us from starting 5 PH players in actual match.
