Yeah that's what I mean I think people are overrating how easily he could take over a solo duelist role when he's really more of a pseudo-initiator. Which I guess is also undervaluing Jett

I think it's more about overrating Yoru than downplaying Jett

She declined. She wanted to stay with EG because she likes that she's keeping a familiar core instead of starting over again

Is this a safe space to mention that I don't think Icy was G2's problem and there's no guarantee they do any better with jawg

that second spot is a toss-up now that FPX is in their throwing era so yeah

I'm so confused what do you mean the best teams will play 1 duel, 2 ini, 2 senti (no controller?) but then all your examples have controllers

how do I vote if I don't think either NRG or LEV would've made it here

Displayed rank =/= mmr

I knew this thread would resonate with people

Come back in 2 years when it's Icy

Is premier fun I've always wanted to join a team

Off-season actually means nothing

Tejo will never be popular as solo initiator. No flashes and one recon charge is asking to get shit on. You'll be face-peeking everything and firing missiles at empty space.

What's with this okeanos team everyone is scrimming

enter Tacolilla

EG FUR G2 (mibr goes on a run once)

I was in the trenches for saying this when everyone thought he was gonna be OP but yes he's just another slow, team-dependent initiator, except he doesn't even have flashes or dogs to swing with

Focused on the long-term process of playing well and not the short-term result of winning

Aren't Miami and Bogotá servers closer though? That's why I was curious

So PR players generally play in NA servers? Interesting. Thanks

Unrelated, what servers do puerto ricans play on? I've always wondered

I'd be a hummingbird

Didn't EDG beat TH like 13-4 on Sunset

idk but FURIA needs to take a world travel class

Bangkok:

• EDG
• FUR
• PRX

Toronto:

• MIBR
• TH
• EDG

Paris:

• M8
• EG
• FUR

because most people are actually busy at school or jobs...??

So cool that she's having Icy just focus on his mechs this year because he's already good at the duelist role

Natank and Tex should swap wtf is this

Did they try it the other way and flop or something

kingg would farm on duelist ngl but then who would take over igl

I feel like they're still figuring out roles. I mean, are D1 and tex alternating duelist? Is one of them on full-time senti? Does kingg flex to senti if Demon1 is on Astra/Brim? Like idek

I live in Oregon and I get about 25-30 ping to Oregon servers somehow. California is like 40 ping.

I don't think anyone can answer for sure but expect g1-p3

Do you play on Georgia, Miami, Bogotá, or MX servers?

Idk if there's even anyone here but I've always wondered.

I've seen like two in the past year, good jinx

This isn't my ign anymore but hi 🧍

The highest that anyone can place is ascendant 1, so it skews everyone down by at least one full division.

What are you blabbering about

Saying jawgemo is out of contract jail in an official trailer is crazy 😭

Rumor has it that batujnax is having visa issues

Even in immo+, Kayo and Breach have substantially lower winrates than Gekko, Fade, and Phoenix.

It's not just the skill of the team, but an inherently lower standard of coordination when you have five randoms.

Like I said, most of his utility requires teammates or information to play off of. Those types of agents are all bad in ranked play compared to agents with selfish kits.

I'm not cloudberry but I've heard Qobuz pays artists way more and has higher sound quality

He's honestly pretty bad in ranked. The only thing he himself can swing off of is the stun. It's like playing Kayo instead of Phoenix

You're cooking

I really don't think he's gonna be that common at kickoff though. A secondary initiator with no flash is a pretty expensive agent to make room in your comp for

I didn't even think about how Vyse's pseudo-initiator capability perfectly complements Tejo being a secondary initiator with no flash

Fade seize and Vyse thorns also get huge value with missiles, damn

EG is usually the one trying to make new agents work but they seem pretty set on the Vyse grind idk

Wait now that I think about it, Vyse flash can somewhat make up for Tejo's lack

Fade + Tejo + Vyse + smokes + duelist could cook pretty hard on some maps

If she had exactly three flashes over the course of a round it'd be perfect. Any more is just too much and goes back to making Gekko bad.

The problem is it's awkward to implement that. Starting the round with three flashes is too much (and also makes her util the most expensive by far) but cooldowns are likely to give her more than three.

Maybe a cooldown of 60s? Or just arbitrarily make them only recharge once.

These companies are straight-up unethical. I support banning them, but like you said, there's always gonna be more popping up.

I know it's become a meme, but the fact that so many parents are raising iPad babies who are building the habit nearly from birth of consuming digital noise at the slightest feeling of boredom is going to have serious consequences.
