they would swap the sova role depending on maps which isn’t as reliant anymore because having one set sova is more beneficial

my intial thought it the obvious which is -kicks +leo but then there might be a role issue between trexx and Leo becuase they both play that main initiator sova role but I think it could still work if they move trexx to flex because he has played agents that kicks has played a decent amount. He’s prob had the most success recently as the main initiator so hopefully he could have the same impact on flex

they went from being at champs 2021 final with masters Berlin winning team gambit and that very same champs winning Acend to playing 2024 emea ascension play ins ☠️

insane how much they fell off

wouldn’t there be a conflict of interest if team liquid Brazil hypothetically qualified to the Americas league through ascension since team liquid is already franchised in EMEA. I’m pretty sure this is the reason why cloud9 white had to disband bc they weren’t allowed to play in American challengers as cloud9 were already franchised.

ez for kru and vitality

phd dr.p

the map is so big and there is so much tech you can do with Astra to make ppl fall off with the suck or stun. Boo played it very well against fut and showed a lot of tech

actually no because im a kayo and Skye player and I don’t like breach for the same reasons

didn’t realize that xeppaa has somehow never played breach before in pro play even hes been player flashers like kayo and Skye for literally forever

Nzr is a solid igl, he’s igled on Furia on both times he was there

they were better off keeping klaus until the end of the year to maximize mat learning his new agents

nzr would only go back to lev if they offered him which I doubt would happen considering how much they payed for C0M and how much better of a long term investment he is, also there’s a good chance c0m would do well in champs which would secure his spot

they are already pretty solid but if they wanna maximize their all latam roster, the best move would probably be -mta +nzr.
mta isn’t that bad but he isn’t that good either, he’s just alright and Nzr is probably the best latam initiator available. although Furia were getting better, he definitely would much rather prefer the Kru team. Also we already know Melser doesn’t like igling even though he’s pretty good at it so Nzr and him could co-igl similar to dephh and ayrin on xset or they could give all of the igling to nzr

bro posted this before it even happened so they wrote vitality instead of heretics ☠️

ppl forget that bro was somehow one game away from making champs

I’m pretty sure this is the second time that Shao and Ange1 have swapped roles and near champs they always end up swapping back to what has been working for so long: Shao on imitator and Ange1 on controller. For whatever reason Ange1 wants to play initiator so bad so shao has to be forced into controller even though he’s more comfortable and WAY better on initiator

they always loose 6 games then win 5 games so that means they have 4 games left to make champs which is def enough s guaranteed champs essentially 🤙🤙

🙏🏽🙏🏽

nats might be intrigued because his team isn’t doing too hot rn plus he would get to reunite with engh which could be intriguing

Vo0kashu could always be bought out and the buyout shouldn’t be insane because it’s a Chinese team

Kiles has been performing better on kpi ever since picking up agents like breach

And zeddy is a pretty solid choice

cloud is already igling on giantx ever since redgars last game plus nAts has no experience igling

this roster is absolutely cooked they need a whole new rebuild next year, I think they should consider building a fully Russian speaking roster

purp0 (duelist)
Cloud (initiatior) (IGL)
Kiles (flex)
vo0kashu (sentinel) (free this man 🙏🏽)
nAts (as controller if he wants to change to this role, has experience on Astra and viper) or xenon (solid tier 2 controller) or wippie (played a whole year as controller on g2 and was decent) there’s also not many good Russian controllers for whatever reason

Engh (head coach)
Pipson (assistant coach)
fistie (analyst)

bro they both get zero incentive from winning today so they obviously aren’t trying as hard and are testing new comps/strats. PRX already secured playoffs and top 2 and GenG already secured playoffs and have no shot of top 2 so there is zero point of trying. ZETA and Secret aren’t that good.

1. Paper Rex
2. Gen.G (bleed game was too close plus paper rex are still dogging everyone but they could be interchanged)
3. Talon Esports
4. RRQ
5. DRX
6. Secret
7. T1
8. Global Esports
9. DFM
10. BLEED (they aren’t 11 bc they played decent against GenG)
11. Zeta Division (jst stfu if you think this team isn’t 11 or 10th, they are just ass rn)

he’s better in terms of he’s done better and had higher heights with a worse roster. also fadezis is a decent gamble too

also not a bad idea but dw about his English bc it didn’t look too great on Bleed

xccurate is still new to valorant and hasn’t really found agents that fit him besides chamber, I think with time we will be good on controller

Ewok has been given so much time and hasn’t got results, warbirds brought team secret to decent heights that are definitely higher then RRQ with worse players. Only good players he had was Jremy and invy, rest were shitty

-Estrella - mid igl, mid fragger, not the best English so could clash with comms
-Ewok - he’s just not proven and lowk overhyped, he has very very good players and not the accolades to show for it
-Voxize - can’t imagine that this guy is having much impact rn ngl

+xccurate - better fragger, could awp if they needed to, overall upgrade over Estrella, he’s also just not fitting into T1 rn lowk
+Warbirds (coach) or Fadezis (Scarz coach who made it to 2nd place last year at ascension with a mid roster) or whatever top ascension coach from this year
+A decent tier 2 coach from NA or EU to use as an assistant coach to bring new ideas

RRQ isn’t doing too bad rn and are still pretty good but this doesn’t cut it for how good their players are

I would imagine that teams would want one person to absolutely master the agent to be able to make better on the fly plays

For example in the talon dfm game rn, on the lotus ban was on cypher and surf was on breach but now on sunset ban is on breach and surf is on cypher. Doesn’t it make more sense to have more set roles and agents?

Would you actually consider this/thoughts on these Indian players and are they good enough for tier 1?

tbh prob the second best idea on a team even like EDG or FPX, or Trace

him and sayaplayer are both really good but they simply can not be on the same team bc they both wanna op but it’s easier for the duelist to op which would make more sense to keep sayapluer. Xccurate should go to RRQ and replace Estrella on a straight firepower basis. This is elevate rrq greatly plus the little igling that he did on T1 wasn’t too bad.

literally just bench wailers, move kadavra to controller and then put Logan back as sentinel. could be such a good ass roster ngl

what are we thinkin?
I think this is a possibility
Jett
Gekko
Breach
Omen
Cypher

they are riding an insane high, I would genuinely be surprised if they even make it to champs lowk

personally, i would bench bro right away and let him explore options. Getting top 3 and in my opinion will also get top 2 is NOT normal for a stand in.

ts means this shit

ts actually looks so cursed. bro only suits the Drx jersey

o7

They posted a show match on twitter, add it to vlr 🙏🏽

underrated asf, could see a fairy tale run

i feel like they will either get grouped in a crazy upset match that goes all 3 maps with OT or they will just fix all their mistakes and absolutely shit on everyone.

sen looses to loud to grant g2 a playoff spot just like how to 100t lost to mibr to get eg the playoff spot.

G2 makes an upset and qualifies to masters shanghai like how EG made an upset and qualified to masters Tokyo. Both teams qualify to second lan of the year after getting dogged on in the first one. They both reach the upper final with ease.

my prediction: g2 loose to geng and go to lower bracket like how eg lost to Fnatic. G2 beat 100t in the lower final and qualify to the grand final. G2 looses and team heretics wins. Then g2 comes back for champs and wins it all.

insane script rito 👏🏽

they always get the worst playoff ever
this time they have 100t first round and then geng/Fnatic lower round
in champs they had Prx first round and then Fnatic in lower bracket
