I'm not falling for regular season C9 again

This. Everyone knew v1c was good but he's taken his skills to another level since joining C9, and if anything Mada was the reason they didn't go to ascension.

Why would you put Penny on full time Sentinel? lmao

Shooting bodies in game changers stage 1 lmao

I think Potter would take a chance on him next year on fade and flash initiators

Throwback to when Ethan,FNS,s0m called Tejo ass https://youtu.be/syTA4vh_bDI?si=ajWUVNlX8ralrRXx&t=1205

Ty, I hate how it's based off map differential ngl

or is it impossible for them to get it

Even if SEN win?

This is EDG's comp from last year

Cryo barely plays duelist nowadays? Huh

Zekken would never leave SEN for 100T lmao

Yeah I didn't see that coming lol

Wait Cryo cooking?

Putting Cryo on Yoru on a Jett map lmao Zikz is a bot

She isn't a bot though lol

Marteen finally entering his prime?

The reply above me 😭

Somehow Flor will get blamed for this

"Fnatic doesn't count because cr0shies is a sub replacing the best player of valorant" wouldn't this work in Crashies favor? He is filling in for the best player in the world in your opinion while performing and them having success? Don't really understand that logic...

1-15 is crazy

I think having NiSMO, Tdawgg to set him up is helping team him patience as well

That's just not true... every IGL who has won a title so far was seen as a proper IGL before it happened. You're telling me Redgar and Shahzam weren't seen as proper IGLs before they won Masters? That's delusional as fuck

Name a team who has won a masters without a proper IGL also I think FNS is overrated the only masters he won was with yay Chamber

I think you're overthinking it. Reduxx said they did this move because he wanted Nightz to feel more comfortable and he thought him on duelist made more sense + Skuba likes playing senti.

He looks way more comfortable on duelist compared to senti (even though I thought his Vyse/Cypher looked good at times)

I was talking about the NRG team with Demon1

Biggest fluke series of all time

Because FNATIC and LOUD had good IGLs. NRG and Vitality don't/didn't.

I gotcha, but yeah Reduxx has played senti in the past that's probably why he isn't on it right now. It makes more sense to let him play controller and learn it a bit since it's not a role he's played much of.

Sorry didn't mean to come off passive aggressive lol

You realize it's an academy team right? The entire point is to learn? Let them try stuff out it's the entire point of having an academy team. I'm sure they'll switch things up again.

Bro just let him learn a bit lmao he just swapped to controller

Duelist main to smokes makes more sense. He can be aggro on Omen. Smoke players to Senti is also very common and Skuba has looked good on it so far.

Shopify and M80 for sure. Shopify has unlimited money and M80 has proven they are dedicated to Valorant, they are also a smaller org so they focus heavy on the teams they have.

Facts, Reduxx is good but Bang at his peak is the best smoker in NA.

I think they're letting him practice any role he wants. It's not 100% he goes to SEN next year, he is also trialing for other franchise teams, showing he's versatile is important.

I agree with everything you're saying. I'm not sure he understands how academy teams work. If you end up winning it's a plus but not the main objective at all. As long as the players are developing everything is going as planned. Reduxx looked good on duelist and Nightz looked good on senti towards the end of last split. Them switching up the roles to hopefully become more versatile is good for them (which helps them out when trialing in the future).

Unemployment final boss

Yeah when the team was announced they said the point of the team is to develop younger talent and help players get signed. They are helping Nightz, Reduxx develop while letting Skuba and NiSMO showcase themselves to franchise teams for next year.

Probably as a watch party streamer if anything he's giga washed as a pro

Does that shit say 13790 posts in less than 2 years?

The roster has a 16yo who is in his first season playing structured Valorant while learning multiple roles, and tdawgg who has never had serious success as an IGL, QoR was arguably the worst team in Challengers last year and TSM has gotten better since he left. Reduxx, NiSMO, and Skuba are solid. Nightz will get better overtime but needs time to develop. They also have a first time head coach idk how someones expectations for this team were Top 1-2

I think your expectations for this roster are way higher than the normal viewer lol

They got 4th in the last playoffs and are an academy team? How are they anything like NRG

Tdwagg went +7 and 59 kills in the BO3 vs Envy then went back to putting up -15 stat lines every series since lmao

Yikes man, thanks for finding that btw

yeah it seems like that's what it is, I saw a few people saying the word swallow lol

what did he say

No he needs a few years of G2 keeping this dominance with multiple international trophies to become the GOAT
