remember when she first came out, those swarms were the strongest ability in the fucking game. impossible to play against

I’d like to see Wardell learn Raze. I’d also love to see TSM’s comp if he played Sova. That would open up a lot of possibilities.

very low pick rate yes. his buffs a few months ago did nothing. i doubt he ever gets buffed again which is sad.

We agree on Cutler - he was the drop candidate, and Hazed would be changing agents. Maybe he could learn Astra.

C0M plays Killjoy, Cypher, Viper, and Sova. He could replace Hazed as the sentinels/Viper player, which frees up Brax to play agents other than sentinels. I’m sure TSM could figure out a comp with Brax that makes Cutler expendable. Worth a shot at least.

cucklord is truly a fascinating individual, so complex and unpredictable, mysterious even

He’s solid. I wonder how he could fit into TSM. I give Cutler a lot of shit, but his agent pool is sooooo diverse. C0M seems to be the same way, so maybe there’s potential there...

i’m not gonna flame you for that opinion. what do you think about wardell? he can’t even play reyna, plus his weapon pool is very limited. i’m a tsm fan so this is a tough subject

plus brimstone can drop his massive american ass fart laser on KJ’s ult to destroy it.

everyone here should know my opinion on that scrub lol

1.46 KDA in the last 90 days on Sova ;)

I’m convinced Drone can frag on any agent, but I don’t consider him a “great Sova” with utility usage, which I assume is the reason behind your “lmfao”

where can you find clutch rate? i know spike has number of successful clutches, but i can’t find attempted clutches.

TSM Stephen “Reltuc” Cutler, aka “CLUTCHLER”

I’ll say just one thing on this subject because I have an opinion but don’t want to be involved in another sinatraa war.

It’s very difficult to prove rape in a court of law, especially in America. So, sinatraa can be found not guilty in a legal sense but still be guilty in actuality. Or, of course, he could be innocent. That’s not what I choose to believe at this point, BUT, that’s my point. Don’t base your entire opinion on the decisions of a legal process - use your “game sense,” or gut feelings, too lol. Also, my belief that he’s at least somewhat guilty doesn’t condemn him. It’s just my opinion.

You seem to have a very rational grasp on the story, so this is more for our other forum members.

Why can’t they bring their whole systems? Do LANs provide high quality computers? What if the monitors don’t have the same refresh rate? What if they’re super short and their gaming chair doesn’t account for that?

Ok, the last was a joke, but I’m truly curious. Are those challenges all part of the LAN experience?

Ok, so it takes TenZ out of his comfort zone. Meanwhile, Cutler is a boomer who’s been in many CSGO LANs, so he’s used to the added pressure? That could make sense. However, hasn’t TenZ also played thousands of hours in CSGO? I feel like he has LAN experience, too. Maybe he was bad in CSGO LANs.

i’m proud to say i didn’t fall for this bc i remembered your tailored post. you little rat lol <3

I don’t want to hijack this thread, but I have a quick question about how LANs affect performance. Obviously, there’s no ping, but what other effects are there? Why would TenZ look bad on LAN (mentioned above), and how could Cutler look better on LAN (mentioned in another thread)?

Just curious. Also, SicK is so damn consistent so I agree.

I’ve been very wary of new agents ever since Killjoy was released in her OP form. I never look forward to learning how to play around a new agent. Astra and her sucks scared me, too. However, new agents don’t get played much at first (Skye or Yoru), so my initial fears are normally an overreaction. I’m not complaining about no new agent, though.

By the numbers, the next agent should be some sort of sentinel.

Because his team wins, or do you see some god level strats being called? I don’t watch much 100T.

i like the skins because i don’t have to spend money on them lol. the brimstone “peacekeeper” sheriff is also stereotypically american which i find funny so i use it

Pistols - LVL10 character skins (more unique imo, also i’m poor lol, breach frenzy and brim sheriff are personal favorites)
Spectre - Infantry
Phantom - Glitchpop
Vandal - Reaver

I own zero skins btw.

100T is kind of insane. They have one of the best early round fraggers in Asuna. Nitro and Ethan are extremely solid mid-round impact players. I can’t stress enough how consistent they are. And then you have Hiko, call him a baiter if you want, but he’s the most clutch late round player in Valorant right now.

Steel is cool, nothing spectacular but he performs his role well, hopefully he isn’t toxic af.

says the guy who put thicc brim as C tier don’t let me hear a word from you lol

fwiw, here’s more stats. zombs has a 0.96 career KDA while cutler has a 1.01 career KDA. crazy to think how cutler fragged more than zombs. certainly doesn’t seem that way.

well only dumbass iron players want to get rid of ALPHA TEAM PLAYER CLUTCHLER because he uses utility for the team and their pea sized brains simply can’t understand using utility from their pug comp matches. smh. /s

hey, just like american football, it doesn’t fucking matter when you’re winning. when tsm was winning almost every tournament, Cutler was one of the best support players. now he’s fallen from grace, so i completely agree that the same could happen to zombs.

sen fans will react just like us tsm fans. if/when their team consistently loses, they will be out for blood. cut ppl until they win again type shit

Maybe swap KJ and cypher. I don’t play Sentinel agents so correct me if I’m wrong. Cypher is almost unplayable on attack on a couple maps, especially a bigger one like Icebox and now Breeze. Meanwhile, KJ’s turret can cover flanks on attack much better than one, even two, tripwires.

It’s actually crazy how Viper went from fucking Z tier to S/A tier.

bc you can’t use gods name in vain

Zombs reminds me of Cutler a bit. Not trying to flame the guy too hard, bc he USES UTILITY and shit. He serves his role well, but there are other Omens who USE UTILITY well and still frag (nitr0, for example). It wouldn’t hurt to upgrade.

Don’t shit talk Darp ever. Most alpha cypher NA. Although he literally admitted himself that he has good games if he does well on pistol round lol. I feel that.

Helpful hint, you can simply full screen the game. Blocks out the spammers and enhances ur viewing experience lol.

Hazed mentioned that Subroza IGLs sometimes. I can only imagine the ADHD aggressive shit he comes up with lol (no disrespect, that damn illness affects me some too). Maybe we could try that, he IGLed the Faze Clan Invitational.

If we’re going for a rebuild, we should keep Drone, Wardell, and Brax. Wardell has to expand his agent pool. I genuinely want to see what he can do on Sova, or maybe even Sage. I see Jett mains play Sage on some maps (for example, Yay who absolutely shit on TSM on Ascent).

burn in hell you motherfucker lol

same with Cutler fans, they want his children in twitch streams

Nah, keep Drone over Rara. I’m down for any experimentation/changes at this point, so dropping Hazed and Cutler for Tarik (completely hypothetical but ok) and Brax sounds fine to me.

guys we've triggered the troll by not responding, keep it up lol

eeiu, crashies, bcj, hiko. no particular order

no that’s subroza, drone is consistent

Change has to happen now. If not, the entire TSM Valorant program will forever and always be the biggest laughingstock in the pro scene.

There’s a long time before the next tournament in which TSM could compete. Use that time to acclimate Brax and officially say goodbye to Cutler. Tailored and maybe Hazed too, for all I care.

it’s been time lmao

wait a second, so people agree that cutler needs to be dropped huh? but it took until today for you to realize that? oh well, welcome to the club.

BUT HE USED ASTRA UTILITY OMG HAVE MY CHIRREN... smh

tsm is not clearing a single fucking angle i cant fucking take them lmao

This here. They’re gonna have to change up their comp a bit.

Viper wall would prob be huge on some of those site takes. That one site is massive.

Precisely. I rarely see him combo a suck with mollies, nades, or Sova ult like in EU. It’s tough to run a Jett and Astra I think, that takes away one duelist who could potentially combo.

I’d also like to point out your hypocrisy in belittling me for honestly admitting I’m not a “great player or aimer,” but you somehow attempt to defend Cutler who is also not a “great player or aimer.”

Like, excuse me ImpChris, but I offer soooooo much value to my teams with my utility.

BUT GUYS HE USES ABILITIES... smh

Literally anyone who has played Astra for a couple weeks could use smokes and sucks just the same as Cutler. That includes people with silver aim. 2-16-1 is perhaps the most atrocious performance I have ever seen, both in stats and the eye test, from the most atrocious weak link in NA.

If you’re a TSM fan, there is no way you can look at me with a straight face and tell me dropping Cutler wouldn’t eventually make this team better.

ok genius, so why should he stay? you can’t possibly justify it. go beyond the basic “low rank” insults and actually give me a coherent response. your opinion is actually worthless because you can’t develop your line of thinking beyond “he uses utility, he’s fine, leave him in.” Like buddy, every other Astra player uses utility, perhaps even better than Cutler, AND they can frag.

He had two 1v3’s against the NA powerhouse known as Rated Gaming. In all seriousness, he had some decent 1v1’s and clutches back in the day, but I rarely see them anymore. He won a crisp 1v3 against Gen.G (not the most recent match but the one before that), but that’s the only good one recently.

Also, that was when he was on Sova, who is the best agent for clutches IMO (you could make a case for Reyna, but Sova has much better utility). Now he’s on Astra, who had ZERO clutch potential IMO.

Probably coaching. And some bad chemistry or confidence issues that we as fans can’t see.

you have to give more than that. this is my problem with the argument you and the others make. do you believe 2-16 can be justified because he smokes and sucks?
