If Asuna and Bang step up, 100t wins.
If Mistic and Derke play like gods, Fnatic wins.
50%-50% this match.

I agree with the prep, but they struggle against a good Chamber.

Dexter, I have been watching all the games. It is more critical that Bang pops off.
He is the anchor; if he dies, 100t get flanked.

I am 1part of the 100t fan army.

Honestly, the team looks much better. Hiko wasn't playing well in the last year on the active roster.

My thoughts on the new rooster.

Bang is the leading man after Asuna; if he pops off, Asuna also does.

Like the old team, if Asuna has a good day, he is a menace. He is outstanding in his new role as support because of his experience as the entry, and he learned a lot from Ethan.

Derrek, Stellar, and Will are good, but their chance to be the MVP is significantly lower.

My problem with the new rooster is the lack of creativity in their plays.

I have not seen any Fade or Neon.

They stick to their most favorable agents.

But, in terms of playing style, Neon is between a support and an entry, aka the ideal agent if Shan could convince Asuna to play her.
Stellar should learn to play a Fade and Brim instead of Cypher and Killjoy.

So far, their tactics seem safe. They don't come up with out-of-the-box plays which they need to beat the top teams.

My problem with the team is that they are very vulnerable against Operator teams; they don't have Jay or Cryocell type of player. Against the absolute top, they rely on Bang to save the day if Asuna dies first, which still happens too often.

To summarize, their kryptonite is a good Chamber player, combined with the odd timing of a good Neon player (Optic Style).
Unless Derreck and Will carry the team, if Bang and Asuna die, I don't see them go far; they will struggle against Faze.
