Is it harder? Yes
Is it more important? No

Think about it this way, Valorant is a young game and everyone remembers who won the masters. But as years go by people will remember Champs. People remember Worlds a lot more than MSI’s, people remember Majors more than IEM’s. Although you face the best teams in the world at both anyway, one is just more important

Probably lost them actually. When you’re that fat you lose weight really fast

He is one of the tryout names

Flyuh Sheydos and Grubinho are 100% in and the core of the roster. From there they lack a duelist and a sentinel

For the duelist it seems like Kamo is the most likely option and I like it, I thought he was really good last year and I don’t think there are many better realistic options. Other options include Tomaszy as duelist

And for the sentinel they fucked up with Minny and are starting again no clue who they’ll get. There’s some tryout names but nothing serious yet

He is trying out with KOI but I doubt he gets signed

what if I hate all sen fans, is that also not okay

Told him once M8 was not signing French players and I've been on fraud watch ever since

Fair enough, but my original point is that I don't think there is any team with a roster of that caliber that can afford Aspas, so I think he'll end up staying

I disagree but it doesn't matter how it ended. That means he wants to win, and if that is the case he's not gonna go to Bleed or China, those teams are objectively worse options to win than current LEV

People thinking about how bad a team is and not in what role they need

Sure, but teams can't pay his buyout, they just can't

And that is exactly why I find it hard to believe, if he is open to a random team in China he is just a fucking loser. And I just don't think that's Aspas, if he was all about the money he wouldn't have signed with LEV last year in the first place

Brother I don't care what happens, I'm just trying to guess, and my guess is he stays

I don't buy the Bleed shit, I think aspas wants to win. And I don't see any other team paying the buyout

Them trialing without aspas has nothing to do with it tho. It's not about him wanting to leave or not, it's about him finding a team that can sign him

Nah Bwipo is a bum

About to hard gap Bin just watch

You're not ready to see Myrwn lifting that thing

exactly, and then they weren't, that's my point

what happened last year? They just lost right?

Mce seems great a at building rosters but then seems to get lost couple months after

Sure but she scouted Demon1 that's part of the job. She got lucky to get a crazy badge with talent, but let's not forget she built that roster a month later than everyone else with basically leftovers

They've tried out Elite already so that's def an option

Plenty of teams looking for a smoker. TL, GX, M8, KC, potentially VIT. All of those should at the very least try him

I’d say there’s gonna be either 1 or no French players at all on M8

I genuinely think if VIT gets a duelist it’s because Sayf wants to be the IGL

Akai is doing his military service rn( hopefully he will be back soon. Moh totally agree

That being said, Avez probably has a more VCT profile, idk how to explain it but in my head it makes sense xD

Having juesu on an academy team makes 0 sense, academy is suppose to develop unknown talents, juseu is very much a recognized tier 2 player. I don’t see what purpose that would serve

Fair enough, let's agree to disagree then

Nowadays there are very little pure IGL's they all need second callers and that is the difference this year, that they have Com

Bro just IGLed a team to be top 3 in the world, I think it's clearly working

That is the case for 95% of IGLs

no what

Not being the only problem doesn't mean he wasn't a problem, he was a liability most of the time. He was great on other roles but bro's just not a duelist

What do you mean fill? He only played Jett Raze Yoru which is perfectly normal and the Phoenix which I suppose was a comfort pick to begin with.

I honestly think he just wasn't good enough as a duelist. But regardless what I don't understand is the "Chinese destroyer" thing after 1 great map, 2 decent maps, and 1 bad map

How did bro earn that nickname after 1 good map, imagine how low the bar was

It's a European rule, every none European has to wait until they are 18, it's not only South America

Yeah makes sense, the rule is for none europeans

The rule is for non European players, and they need to be 18 100%

Garnacho is the most Spanish mf you can find, the only Argentinian thing about him is the flag

And Pellistri no clue, but according to what I'm googling rn he didn't

Also I think the rule might be different fro academy players or something, but for signings I can 100% guarantee they need to be 18

He's not gonna be Head Coach in EMEA at least, no clue what he's gonna do

Endrick is 18 mf, South American players also have to wait until 18 before coming to Europe in Football

Rezq started slow but she has stepped up, they're looking scary

It sucks because it's fewer games but being honest 3rd seeds very rarely make win/make finals, so in that regard is not a big issue

Yes, it is confirmed

I'm not gonna lie that was kinda a bait from the beginning, kinda hard to explain without context

They could

The most important part is that FNC does not want to sell Derke to an EMEA team to avoid stregthening the competition. Regardless of the money, money wise Vitality can compete with anyone

the IGL needs to be the first piece of a project for it to work, messing around with it is usually a bad idea imo. I think if Kristal doesn't get it in in APAC he should come to EMEA tier 2 and he'll def get in next year

We do lack good IGL's it just so happens that every team has already chosen one for next season

The Derke thing is not about money tho
