VIT (i love less and sayf)
G2 (leaf and jawg are the goats) i was NRG fan since i love mada som and verno with everything, but G2 are just too good
DRX
EDG

less chichoo benjy and meteor all have insane aim as well. senti util isn't really "hard" since its just setups and holding down site. very rarely senti util needs "skill"

aura unmatched and both GOATS. both dominating 2025. (champs winner/mvp+ grammy winner/AOTY)

cortezia we dont know yet, but the reason ppl are glazing verno so much is that you can just tell when a player is different. mechancially and his decision making, verno is a tier above 95% of all pros.

off topic but i would love to see a fade meta

thats a cool way to look at it as well. id say i agree for the most part. i think for me though i try harder BECAUSE its with friends and its ego on the line / u want to impress your friends if its a tournament

are the people you play with in 10-mans a significantly higher rank? or is it just a pure "other way around" thing for you as it is for me

i made a "GenRX" roster a while back combining GenG and DRX and i believe mine was

Texture
Flashback
Munchkin
Meteor
Karon/MaKo cant choose between the two.

im talking about a more consistent basis. his performance can be really underwhelming or at least thats how ive been feeling recently coming from a 3 year drx and mako fan.

yeah i agree

i completely agree with what you said and i think u described it perfectly.

i guess there could be something about the social aspect as i do feel more comfortable. it just always baffles how much of a difference there is for me.

well id say its not more about like winning the games because i usually win more games than i lose in ranked, but im more so talking about personal performance. personal decision making to mechanical skills

you play like a completely different player in customs/tournament style games compared to ranked. in customs i play w friends/collegiate players that are serious i go nuclear often dropping like 25+ kills as initiator/smokes, but when i play ranked my brain just shuts off and suddenly i cant aim.

i like how they're improving, but i wanna see prime mako. mako seems like the weakest atm

i agree with the ssees part. gyen has phenomenal aim, he just needs more experience and confidence like any other player would. just give him time.

mitch had crazy improvement in t2 so i think he could be great

thank you selectsense :)

i do agree with that and like that idea a lot. skuba + mitch have chem as well

thankyouu

i am eligible for VCT franchising now😊

he's just a solid player who has tons of experience. he is a temporary roster filler player. im just surprised he's still on C9

moose was a player who got brought up to t1 out of nowhere while there are a lot better options for sentinel players. obv if he doesn't drop 30 like prime alfa he's going to get hate.

moose isn't a bad player lets get that straight, but him joining T1 without ever really proving himself was a surprise especially when there are other sentinel players who are better than him. i think everyone expected him to only be on c9 for the 2024 season, so its more surprising that he is still on the org. i agree he deserves another shot which he does have, but there are definitely players who are better.

c9 shouldve been
oxy
v1c
rossy
mitch
some cracked senti

i never said he was, but he sure can keep up with them to a degree even if he isn't diffing them every round. he is a top radiant who plays against these high caliber players daily. theres no way he will get stomped to the floor if he is facing them.

mooda isn't bad though and plays against the players in rankers on a daily basis so it wouldn't be a crazy difference

situational, but always prioritize the tree smoke over any other

i fw persia and dambi so hard

90% of these 4ks i hit today

i think that crashies is back in form mechanically at least from what i've seen in ranked games, vic i dont know personally. vic has always been solid though. i would like to see a t2 team with vic crashies mitch skuba and someone else though.

a month ago i gained like 300 rr in less than a week dropping 30's and even 42 kills no OT in diamond 3- ascendant and now i am dropping like 17 kills going negative every game. my mechanics are still there i just feel like i am dying so much more for some reason. how can i get out of this slump

well obviously im not expecting prime EG level teamwork, im just talking about individual plays and their choices. for instance it was a 3v2 (in favor of wash) on B site sunset (wash had bomb planted) and nightz is on site while rest are B main. the two on tsm (coming from market) have NO clue that nightz is on site, but nightz in a 3v2 chooses to reveal his position and decay shorty with 0 info of where they are except that they "could" be in the smoke that GMD placed on bomb. and it ended up becoming a 2v2 and eventually a 1v1. in that situation all nightz has to do is play the element of surprise while the two B main jiggle and stall. wash should've lost one player at most, but nightz decided to make a play that would've gotten him one kill at most. i know this isn't THAT deep, but there were just so many instances the entire match that I was just genuinely baffled because of how dumb they played certain situations.

very hindsight but some of these guys have no brain in some situations at all. obv mechanically they’re cracked, but i’m watching nightz cane and ion make some plays that even plat players know not to make

I agree that EG was the best team of all time.
Don't underestimate EDG though. KangKang had one of the best performances of all time, chichoo and smoggy were off a drug throughout the entirety of champs. nobody was an igl who could shoot. and s1mon supported well.

peterbot

def not changing makos role but im not sure about flashback and free1ng. from the off season so far it looks like fb is playing sova and stuff while free1ng is senti

i like athan as well, but i would rather have mako on pure smokes personally. i dont doubt any of them though. just pure roles and comfort wise yoman in theory wouldve been a better fit

vandal: prelude, gaia, kuronami
phantom: recon, oni, and champs/protocol?
