Ok so here are my thoughts..let me know what you think..

Asuna - Jett/Primary Duelist
NiSMO - Flex/Secondary Duelist (this guys has a 256 ACS/165 ADR on Raze, 238 ACS/153 ADR on Skye, and 235 ACS/152 ADR on Kay/O..this guy is nuts and on par with a Zander/Cryo level tier 2 pickup) also bang would be a good pickup too :) just stats aren't as nuts, but he is a young talent with room to grow
Ethan - Sova/Secondary Flex and Secondary IGL
BabyJ - Sentinel (he was actually playing really well in the last match against the Guard, and he left FaZe with some nuts stats too)
ec1s - Smokes/IGL (I am willing to bet they want to see this experiment play out more, which I can understand completely. Can't call it quits after two matches even with a 13-0) but if they want to move on I think jcStani would be a good pick. Absolute grinder who IGLd tier 1 with immortals till that org decided that didn't like esports anymore...)

MikesHD - Assistant Coach
Jovi - Analyst/Assistant coach/whatever (honestly its hard to tell what exactly a coach does for a team unless they tell you...)
fRoD, Akrew coach whose name escapes me atm or would have been Anderzz before he was picked up - Head Coach (bring in some creativity and drill in some good fundamentals into the team..spacing, trades, scaling...so on)

Thoughts? :)

Yeah Steel was a really good IGL for 100T I mean look where he took T1 in a matter on months.

Yeah Food and Crashies were benched from T1..YaBoiDre was dropped by LG...and all three of those guys suck and never found success on any other team

Where are you even getting 100T in this? 100T said they wanted to do the NSG tourneys, but they couldn't because they ran into issues with ec1s visa. By the time they got it worked out, the time to enter them had passed. They were just at a bootcamp for 2 weeks practicing 9 hour plus days and scrimming 6 times a day. They have been grinding, so whether or not they get the results, they are putting in the effort. Can't say they aren't.

I am thinking because of two things:

  1. The team had all year under his leadership and suffered many critical losses the entire (2021) season outside of getting to Berlin. Even in Berlin they were never convincing victors. Even though I love 100T, you only can pull off incredible comebacks if you start off really far behind. Constantly being behind isn't good. Then they got read and anti-stratted real hard by Envy.
  2. Probably not always the best having someone at his level of "toxicity" or whatever you want to call it all the time if the team isn't built for it. How the team feels as a unit matters.

I am thinking it was a year or so of disappointing finishes and an unhealthy team dynamic that probably lead to it. The second point is a real stretch and just a guess based off of whispers and rumors.

But that is probably why :)

Did I say that is how the roles should switch? Man you are lost. Of course no team has seen any success with major role changes. Except Acend switching BONECOLD from smokes to Sova, Starxo from Skye main to smokes, and Zeek to that initiator role. Or Gambit with Chronicle playing three different roles in a single series and seeing success.

But no you are right. Players and teams should stick to one play style and show no flexibility. The point I was making was that teams have seen success in role changes before. They lost some pretty major parts to their roster, so nothing should be off the table as far as a rebuild goes. If a role change makes sense for 100T in server and practice, then they should do it.

But keep crying about Sentinels still losing because "it was a seeding match" against KRU.

Dang I hope the players find a new org... Sushiboys was nuts

What is 1head and stupid is thinking that certain people can only play certain agents. Sure, should 100T sign someone who fits the chemistry, yes. Do they need to only sign a sentinel player? No.

People change their roles all the time. Jamppi from mainly Jett to Sova. cNed from Jett to Sage on certain maps. Ethan from Omen, to Sage, to Skye. The roles can be flexible. Anyone who can't flex when the team needs it will struggle.

So those thinking that they need to sign more firepower to the team, I agree. It could be a sentinel, or it could not.

NiSMO...the fact that no one is talking about him is a tragedy...he deserves to be on a Tier 1 NA team

He has never IGL'd or won a major

I have to say this is a pretty silver take. I understand about being upset by nitr0 and steel. Steel had been IGLing for the team for the entirety of 2021 and struggled to see consistent results/improvements. His calling was not working for the team. They made the switch to nitr0 who decided to leave. What else can 100T do?

And a T2 IGL? First, ec1s isn't even really T2. He IGL'd early in Liquid and was climbing EU with an mostly unknown roster to compete really well against T1 EMEA teams. What T1 IGL is reasonably available in NA who isn't signed? Several pros have outside of 100T have said that buyouts are STUPID high right now for players who are basically unproven. So 100T are picking up a imported young IGL who has shown skill and room to continue to grow at a CHEAPER price than some T2 IGLs who have only ever competed against stream and academy teams.

Come on.
