blue lock will own. honestly one of the best mangas i started reading this year. can only hope for the anime to present it in even better

true, but hopefully in 2 years when 14 teams enter the partnership it will be better :)

how many lans did all of them attend. hmmmm lets see.
kolda 2
redgar 2
angel 3
bonecold 2
boaster 5, oh
and to add boaster's team beat all these players team this year atleast once, redgar's m3c angel's fpx, kolda's guild... wake up lil bro

you are on vlr you can check yourself, boaster beats benkai in both masters 2 and champions

yea you sit in their comms to realise all of this. micro management can also be a reaction to the inability of the teammates to adapt, you cant sit their explaining them why they need to do this and the only thing you can do is micro manage. its not his fault, but the whole teams. and the point of conversation wasnt what he/his team needs to do/learn, but rather counter someone who said boaster is an incapable player

true yeah, i should have said one of the best, but jinggg is the only guy who competes(zekken no, aspas no, rb buzz no victor lol). i am not just looking at blind stats(and obviously a bit biased). but yeah also he might be the best fragger if we remove the kj and viper games he plays.(he has 310 acs in 100+ rounds on raze at champs)

and that also means we as audience will get to see only the best of the best, which would make it even more fun and competetive to watch. you can always watch t2 lil bro

alfa is the best duelist in the world according to international performances. and thats facts. and dw fnatic wont let go of this future superstar

his stats are way better than people like fns angel benkai dephh, still comparable to saadhak somewhat who definitely is the best fragging igl itw. one of the only igl to bring his team to almost every lan even after multiple changes. and even in this lan he had the same acs as marved who is considered the best controller itw. like lol , he is good enough to compete in fact better than most.

franchising huh????

the guy who couldnt get up for scrims in NA, and couldnt move to texas coz of his girlfriend, do you seriously think he'll move to europe berlin for esports?? lol, he's not that guy

lol that is illogical. and whatever you might think george is 99/100 times correct with his leaks. dot articles are only written when some deal has gone through and is almost confirmed. he cant create a new article for every new rumor. you can say the same thing about other reporters, that they are often wrong and i would agree, but george is one of the most accurate reporter in val

he came to know who the new players are on stream. pretty sure he already knew he was getting benched from the main team

werent there leaks about bbl cned though yesterday?

jamppi on flex, sayf on duelist. jamppi can be primary chamber, redgar smokes, nats sentinel flex, dima soulcas can play anything(5th and 6th player so only one of them plays)

nah jamppi is much more flexible, and even this year he played everything when he wasnt on chamber, like omen and sova . and sayf is also flexible as he can play jett chamber kj cypher skye and pretty sure he'll learn new agents once nats comes

not only helps, but does the entire defensive igling so that s a lot

fnc vs lev

lol

i never thought i would get to see styling911 apologising on vlr

bro who cares, you give us juice and we appreciate it. keep the good work up

yea and ayrin said he wants to pursue in this role, so he wants to do full time igl

seoul

want good aim bad aim, whatever it is, even if you hack, going to gym is the only right way

ardiis wants to explore new options, not fpx

dont remember asking

he just confirmed on his stream that fpx needed an op player so it didnt work out. nukkye not joining navi

steel and fns both. the rumors of them not scrimming werent just randomly spawning, from reporters to actual players who scrimmed told how less sen scrimmed, what are you even defeding at this point.

yea true, and they might never be able to do so, but in the end they have shifted their focus to esports from clout, you cant dream of best of the both world when you are just starting(a new roster). yea rebuilding with tenz is a more likely solution, as he is still a good player, but i wont reccomend and neither do i think sen will go with shahz.

he plays/can play everything so i am not worried about it that much. especially in any case he is a very good 6th player prospect with his flexibility and clout

and then what? lose with that core again so that fans tell you to fix your shit?? fans will go and stay, if you perform well, just like optic you'll have one of the biggest fanbases by gameplay alone

he is still good, even stats wise, he didnt pick chamber early and that might've been the only reason he fell off from everyone's list. but he definitely is still good to be a chamber for any team in the world

wdym nobody, vitality fpx/navi both trialed him, if the players didnt feel like it would fit then thats a good thing. you cant just expect a good player to fit with 4 good players for sure. its not NA, we do trials and we definitely dont sign players we might kick after 2 matches @100t

c9 had a really good team even in 2022, but couldnt do what they are supposed to, the macro was lacking, obviously yay and zellsis are an upgrade but for an 8-1 it really should mean they instantly click and are the most synergetic teammates possible

oh yea, thats a good point, ardiis wont leave the best team in europe just for some salary boost, it definitely can be something like you said

fits the brand, yes, very much, much more than tenz honestly, that zombs shit talk was missing. but it just doesnt make sense for sen, why would they go for an emea player when they can just go for any NA player, including dicey baby bay zekken saya v1 duelist(dont remember his name) or even wardell lol and many more

no, for tier 2 this team can be really lethal

or like 2 super young players, who can learn while on roster, basically academy players but just one or two instead of a whole team

cned trialing with fpx though

and people thought signing whole of optic was going to be easy... sucks though, loud easily one of the best brazil orgs still couldnt keep up with players demands. but this also can mean more competetive br teams potentially

sen coach sykko would make sense, but what also would make sense is that the core of xset gets into sen, which will be very interesting to see.

this makes fpx/navi like the peak jack of all trades squad, nukkye is more flexible then ardiis, but yeah not the most experienced at chamber/jett/op role

yeah true. i have been shit in game this week but getting good teammates that have carried me to 80% win rate this week. its definitely not that bad. in fact its mostly good. we should appreciate good things too, we dont always get those toxic insta lockers.

he aint big enough to have beef with zombs

tarik also gets 100k+ regardless what teams playing in vct, tenz doesnt even cross 40k unless its a big match, pls dont compare live viewership of tenz and tarik. you can say all sen fans are coz of tenz, but just dont compare the viewership no.

yea and that will eventually change, people wont keep tuning into see a big name tenz underperform under a bad igl and team structure for the third year in a row. 99% viewership doesnt come from that casual once a month guy either. sure he is the face of val but thats that. tenz is definitely bigger, but if you want to get better, its much more worth to remove him and go forward rather than trying to work with what doesnt work

and nowhere is it required to have a big player to have an influence. there arent 10 tenz to chose from, eventually they had to move on from him, and guess what they have the next big thing.

tarik averages 20k+ on normal streams and dwarfs lil bro tenz on watch parties. yes many fans will move on from sen if he leaves, but that isnt that big of a loss, considering this org wants to focus on actual results and not same clout fiesta like 2022. and people will still care about sentinels enough even if tenz leaves. and most regualr tarik fans not being regular sentinels fans doesnt mean that regular sen fans dont follow him. he still had about 100k more people when he was watching lcq sentinel. he grew from nothing(in viewers) into competing with tenz without being a pro , if not tenz, tarik surely is good enough at the very least, if not better, considering he doesnt have a buyout you had to pay

like i said, tell me the difference, if its the opponent team playing/positioning badly then i can somewhat understand. but that 4k will look exactly the same and would require equally good mechanics to do in both games

yea sen can benefit from tenz's brand and all but just like george said, they are going to focus on building a proper team and not some streamer team, sen have tarik anyways for the fanbase and clout part. sen dont need to stick with tenz if they dont want to. sure it'll be easier , but they can do 10x better by picking a player who is firstly better in game and secondly doesnt have all this pressure of brands and stuff
