Then it's just a matter of you not knowing how team sports work.

GL being able to make something grow out of your own merits in your life outside val, kid.

Remember this: MTA, KRÜ's new LATAM player will become one of the rookies of the year.

And he hasn't even put a foot in an international event in LATAM alone.

Then you'll remember your comments.

You're actually a dunce.

cNed got owned all year long by EMEA's teams and he cannot, by any chance, be considered an inferior player to idk, Fitinh0.

Player performance is heavily affected by a lot of factors, one of the most significant ones being the influence the coaching staff has on them. Take Klaus's year for an example. Dude was straight ass cheeks all 2022 and a good part of 2023. Come LCQ and he was a fucking beast. With the right mindset and the correct use of the players capabilities, a lot of teams that you, in your very uga buga firepower/teamstrats are everything/there's no way for a player to improve/teams must win or disband way of thinking, can't see winning anything would perform really well, and, in the contrary, that's why there's a saying as old as CSGO: "Superteams do not work".

Again, take KRÜ's journey as an example: under Leazo they were doing really REALLY bad, even on scrims and even with Keznit on the roster, then Atom came and the team slowly but surely rose to be one of the best teams in Americas, clearing a very good NA team in C9. All of KRÜ's players elevated their gameplay in every area of the game and pulled a "miracle" run, which wasn't by any means miraculous, they, players and coaching staff, worked their fucking asses off to get their shit together, and they did.

I think the decision to go for tex has to do with 1. the system/style of play the new coach wants to implement, seeing in tex a player who fits well in it and 2. tex can deliver results from the get go, he regularly srimmed franchised teams and his strategic depth/fundamentals don't need as much polishing, which is important in LEV's current state of things because they made BIG investments and the backlash/drop in morale could be fatal, both of those factors heavily tip the scales against signing someone you would need to mold into a "good/fitting" player.

Again, will put a TL;DR cause you seem really dumb: Player performance is affected by a lot of things, coaching staff matters a lot and LEV's decision might not be just because he's better than LATAM players, but by other factors.

There's no way you're actually treating teams performance to players performance as the same thing... I mean, c'mon dude, what???

You can say whatever you want about LATAM's teams doing badly in ascencion, but you can't be seriously saying that just because those teams did bad their players are bad... Sports do not work like that. I mean, can you say Cristian Ronaldo is a bad football player cause he never won a world cup with Portugal? Hell no.

Would you say Daveeys, may he rest in peace, who came from E-Xolos Lazer, a team that not only never went to an intercontinental event, but also were STOMPED by KRÜ in the second half of 2022 (btw, that's the time KRÜ was in really bad shape), was in any way, shape o form a bad player? or a T3 in NA player? (also, just to throw it out there, KRÜ's sights werent on him at first, they wanted Feniz because he was a natural sentinel player, the role Daveeys ended up filling).

Well, just as Daveeys was an amazing player, theres plenty of other talent in LATAM. Why then they don't play well internationally?

1. Can't scrim franchised teams as often (never, in the case of LAS).
2. Lack of strategical depth can also be a reason.
3. Lack of discipline can also be another reason.

Whichever it is, it's certainly not the quality of the players. Look at Darker from Fusion, look at Rubkkoide or at Mizu from 9z and come back.

TL;DR: You're delulu, LATAM players ARE good, their teams may not be.
