ik we love to hate on c9 but they've been scrimming for 3 months now with note

it must not have been going well, who knows

that's why xeppaa was untouchable on c9, because oxy wanted him

he was given freedom to rebuild the team around himself and chose xeppaa every time

pretty much, how many times did c9 "almost" make an international

that's just how it is. nobody glazed them for 4th place

100t shouldn't be any different

-immi and we're cooking

but honestly if the rookies can live up to their potential it should be a really good team!

this would be a really good pickup..

id say solada, sorex, smoke would be exciting T2 pick ups

Oke had a bad season but he was insane last year, so idk it could be exciting if he can regain his form

Inspire wouldn't be bad

but yea, otherwise i agree there's not many players available that would be very exciting

he was ass the last time he was on c9?

anyway i doubt its him, oxy said on stream fans will be excited/ happy about their 5th

i'm hoping for solada

Akamaru was teasing okeanos tho, it's prob him or inspire

Runi and jakee were kinda insane during the first regular season, then started to fall off from there

read his tweet, he tweeted on this topic

y'all are delusional if you legit think 3 players just happened to suddenly wanna leave at the exact same time, and just "left the team"

especially with xeppaa being one of those. guy was literally on stream a week prior talking about how he can see himself playing on c9 until the end of 2027 at least

penny knew he was about to be dropped, hence why he took the step himself. when demon1 was there, penny was eager as hell to maintain his spot this man didn't just wanna leave the team

v1c is the only one who had expressed wanting to take a break prior.

the other two are definitely mutual decisions (the org wanting to make changes + the players seeing it was for the best that they step down) and the org simply allowed them to do that, rather than "kicking them"

yeah after 2/3 months of bottom fragging

also it was mibr

says who lol

nty

hell nah

did they really all happen to quit? or the org just let em say they're taking a break to save face, and to not look like they got kicked

xeppaa is out

it is? it says they're looking to trial and bring in another player for EWC + remainder of the season

there's no way he returns after that point

Nah get Boni

only if xeppaa doesn't come back

what do we make of xeppas tweet with a bunch of ex x9 pros reacting? kinda sus no?
also the way they worded it, "we will update you about our roster" instead of just saying he's sick

c9 always plays good vs top teams, and plays shit vs weaker teams (NV/ Loud)

i wouldn't be surprised

xeppaa is probably next tbh it would just be too much to replace that many players rn

he had no buyout, he was literally on c9.. i guess at the time they hadn't considered replacing penny yet. he was playing good when D1 was there

penny has been complete ass outside of the one mibr game..

bro life games when his career is on the line (see the week demon1 was there)

tbh c9 improved a lot since the NV match

Imagine it’s for some other team

lmao bro they dropped Mitch during the off season. people acting like they pulled a yay/rossy on him is absurd.

yes it was a little late in the off season but still

i mean if you think about it, SEN also dropped Zellsis and Johnqt at pretty much the same time, and no one is saying shit about that

Honestly same, i have no doubt that this team will be better than Sen

idk if they can make top 3 though

nah bro c9 will be 4th/5th again, as they always are

everytime people predict them last it never happens, and tbh they've upgraded their team (although not in the ways people had hoped for)

they're going to be 3-5th place team

meanwhile a team that has HEAVILY downgraded in Sen, and people think they're gonna be better than C9 who wasn't too much worse than a much stronger Sen?

immi doesn't want demon1

when asked about him on stream he got angry, and basically implied that it wouldn't work and that fans have no understanding, and also that he only wants personalities that he likes (V1 players)

expect zander or penny to round the team out

btw eeiu is trialling with Furia

demon1/ yay/ satellite > xeppaa

v1c back on flex

pretty sure Penny was just filling in for Oxy, as he was away for some event

c9 also trialled satellite and zander recently

guys they're trialling alym for duelist rn

i prefer the rumored lineup ngl (with alym, cortezia)

C9 is doing a full rebuild, there have been rumors that they trialled Cortezia and bang also

there's also a rumor of zellsis (possibly IGL)

leaked where ?

Where are these spreadsheets coming from exactly?

Yep if they kept leaf as senti with current roster they’d be scary af (only xeppaa would be weak link)

Alexis, MeL

C9 is doing well financially again, i would be surprised if they don’t spend big in 2025

They made like $4m this year selling some players in cs alone

Tbh cryo contract does expire this year, but yeah unlikely to get him

Get Runi out

Tbh i’m kinda thinking there’s a small chance of +sadhaak (maybe Less also)

Yeah yeah sure

“who is oxy” now you know bro
