Let's try that again. This time you will reply with a comment that is somewhat coherent and I won't have to waste my time trying to decipher your nonsense.

1 children hidden. I can't interact with people who have room temperature iq. It's not good for my mental health

It took you 2 years to figure this out? Smh I guess the average iq of vlr.gg users really is going down, something I didn't even think was possible.

Source is a mystical sea monster from the bottom of the pacific ocean. I can't prove it but you have to believe me. I was there.

Aspas is not allowed to flop like zyppan (along with the rest of navi) did this year.

Not the vlr user who hasn't seen sunlight since the 7th of September calling the rest of vlr.gg bums 🤣🤣🤣

Yep and geng was a phenomenal team. No one is denying that. Or I hope no one is because that's just wrong.

There was a really simple solution. Esports orgs hate this ONE simple trick: treat your players well. It's that easy. This may be a nightmare for nrg but it really is a problem created from their own behaviour and treatment of players.

Ok yeah when mako starts slipping in his performance next year, it would be termi's mistake for not signing an igl. But a team with all rookies apart from the igl performing well can only mean that the coach is good at preparing and training the players. The role of a coach is more than just scouting players and building a roster and there are some areas where termi is very very good as a coach.

Check zyppan champ sta... oh wait HE WASNT EVEN THERE! shall we compare regional performances? Or are you scared your fraud will get exposed?

SEN HAD A BAD SEASON???? Seems like chatgpt is on that zaza nowadays huh

You sound more upset than anyone else about the situation. Denial is a river in Egypt....

Literally so wrong but ok

I don't think it's completely termis fault that the team choked multiple times although some of the blame does fall on him for that. But the reason why drx was ever relevant was because of his style of coaching which prioritised focus on the fundamentals of the game. He also cooked up really good strats and that got the team past the group stage in almost every tournament they went to. I'm not saying termi is perfect as you pointed out his flaws and mistakes with the team such as not scouting a full flesged igl. All I'm saying is that you blame him for too much that went wrong with the team. If DRX performs this year with almost a completely new team from the OG roster, then some of that success should be attributed to termi as well as the players. If not, then I will admit that it was only the players that made DRX good.
My question to you is; DRX first stuck with the same roster for 3 years before switching things up, and people were mad that the team wasn't showing results. Now, termi has tried changing things up and people are still upset that the team isn't winning anything. What do you think termi should have done with the roster? Should he have stayed with the original 5 for longer? Should he have made changes to the roster at the end of 2024 or was that a mistake too?

Will it be similar to what bren esports ceo did back in 2021?

But hiro doesn't main duelists, maybe they wanted a duelist player who can flex onto other roles to allow alfajer to transition back into a duelist main.

I want drx to sign someone else. There are options because Korean tier 2 players are really talented. He might end up the same as beyn, forced to switch roles and get dropped for underperforming on a role he doesn't even main. I have a lot of doubts about this roster of drx but it has a lot of potential so I'm hopeful.

I think that they wanted a flexible duelist and I guess fnatic hopes that kaajak can be moulded into one as a rookie. Or they wanted a duelist who plays a different style from derke. Or they could be shifting alfajer back to primary duelist and wanted kaajak as a secondary duelist. There are loads of reasons, I'm just speculating though.

Ohhh so they signed 2 coaches along with sylvan?

But t1 already has 5?

Oh yeah I hate sentinels so much I won't deny that. But blame the fans, they are who I'm actually mad at. I didn't really care about the whole bang situation but I didn't know enough about it to comment on it the way I was doing in that thread.

So they will trial buzz 🤔

Who is the indigo guy then? I thought t1 already had 5? Or is indigo meant to be a 6th man or coach?

Wait so what was drx going to do if geng didn't fall apart??? They would have been screwed.

Ok then I will admit that I was wrong. Sorry about that. It seems that bang did snake 100T out. I realized this before the thread was made but i thought that if i just ignored the replies it would go away and i woulsnt have to apologise but now this thread is targeted at me and i cant exactly ignore it anymore. But I don't like a whole thread calling me out about this 😡😡😡😡.

NOOOOOO WHY TF WOULD THEY GIVE KICKS A 2 YEAR CONTRACT !!!!???

If sentinels made offers to both zander and bang, and 100T knew of this, then it was still up to zander whether bang stayed at 100T or went to sentinels. If zander rejected the sentinels offer (which he obviously would have since he's on 100T now) then bang would have left and zander would have replaced him. I'm not arguing whether 200T chose zander or bang, but instead focusing on how zander was the one in control instead of any other party in this situation. He was guaranteed a spot on either team, as sen made an offer to him and bang, and him rejecting the offer would open a spot on 100T for him. I disagree with the take that bang chose to leave though, even though it is possible, because zander forced the hand of sentinels to pick up bang. It is possible that bang chose to leave and zander chose 100T as well, but I don't think that's what happened. But like I said before, none of us truly know what actually happened, it could be simple or it could be more complicated than we think.

Wait I didn't even think of how the three geng players being on the market would change the decisions that t1 or drx makes in choosing their rosters. However I doubt drx would pick up munchkin because if you remember from his t1 days, his biggest reason for leaving t1 was ideology clashes with autumn, the t1 coach. I think that he would run into the same issue with termi.

Gamergirl is a number one termi hater. They can't appreciate termi's work from behind the scenes. I've even tried explaining why I think termi is a very good coach despite the choices he made with rosters to gamergirl but they don't want to listen or understand.

DROP THE FACE CARD RN AND LET US DECIDE !!!

You aren't understanding what I'm saying. If zander chose sentinels, would sen make an offer to bang? It was widely rumoured that zander was considering between sentinels and 100T because they both made offers to him. If he chose sentinels, why would sen make an offer to bang If they made one to zander too? Yeah sure bang chose to accept sentinels' offer, but what if they only made him an offer knowing that zander was going to replace bang's role on the team. In that situation, what choice did bang have? Obviously he would take the offer, right? If you can convince me that this is not at least somewhat possible, you are more than welcome. Otherwise, please try to understand what I'm trying to say next time.

Yeah I'm not denying that but sen might have only made the offer to bang after zander chose 100T. It sounds very possible because why wouldn't you want a fragging controller who can be a second caller for the team?

It's truth. Every franchising league has at least one retirement home team, where players go to kill their careers. GE is one example, so is DFM. BLEED used to be one, mibr is one, C9 is kind of a retirement home if the management stops signing players they have played with before, BBL is a retirement home as well.

On my Christmas list are:
Good Vibes
Festive Feelings
Fun times
[Insert synonyms for words above].

I don't celebrate Christmas but I do love having a good time so I enjoy the season and the unique vibe it offers.

You have to change country to Tanzania. That's where he said he originates from.

I heard that they are promoting another player from their academy team called leviathan. However I would love to see DRX yoman if it's possible.

I heard that zander was the one getting to choose. If zander chose sentinels, bang would have stayed on 100T. If zander chose to accept 100Ts offer, bang would go to sentinels. But idk thoguh, I wasn't there in person after all and neither was anyone else in this post.

the flair is fitting. you are glazing mada's corn dog more than i have ever glazed DRX, my all time favourite team. that shouldnt be possible but this is vlr.gg after all.

its a collection of copypastas from 3 years ago. i know the economics 202 one is from a veteran vlr.gg user by the name of ciro, but im not sure about the rest. you might be able to scour the internet or sift through the archives of vlr.gg to hunt down the true publishers of these masterpieces, but for now we can enjoy the copypastas and keep them alive to honour those who spent their time and brain cells thinking of these instead of more important things.

they can be upgrades from victor and crashies, but that still doesnt automatically make them a superteam. if they are not proven in tier 1, then the team cannot be called a superteam. there is a possibility for it in the future, but it also involves fns stepping up more too.

mada will have to prove that he has what it takes to compete against the best in the region then, and i dont think its fair to compare boaster to fns because while they both aren't known for their fragging ability, at least boaster had clearly drastically improved his aim to at least hold his own on that fnatic roster while fns has not improved as significantly as boaster in his mechanics, if he even improved at all. also, every player on that fnatic roster had proven at least once before that they were the best in their roles against other tier 1 players. a superteam cant be a superteam if one of their players is seen as a liability due to their mechanics, even if it is the igl. this is why hardly any team, no matter how stacked the team is, has truly earned the title of superteam. on vlr.gg we throw this word around flippantly, when it reality a super team is extremely rare in valorant, at least for now.

i think its because his understanding of the game was extremely good. when he was on guild, the team didnt exactly have the most star studded roster (sure sayf and leo were there but still). it was his set plays that made them seem like a very solid team in EMEA back in 2021. it was gameplay that hadnt been seen in valorant at the time, especially in EMEA. his time as a pro player in Paladins allowed him to transfer the understanding and knowledge from that game to make full use of the abilities aspect of valorant. he was highly regarded even back then due to this, and a lot of people had high hopes for him as a coach. he did do a good job on oxygen, but unfortunately the team choked when it mattered most.

no. fns isnt the best mechanical player in his role, mada is unproven and verno is a rookie. objectively NOT a superteam by any metric.

i feel like i have witnessed this exact situation, except the roles were flipped and demon1 (and another specific player on his old team) were going a bit too far against their opponents... correct me if im wrong.

but dapr is playing against tier 2 NA pros. the comparison is simply not possible when it comes to ratings.

i just went to his twitter and went through his replies rn and it is a 10/10 crashout for sure. the podcast episode replies were hilarious

people have been onto the snake for a long time now. this was inevitable. we should have seen his downfall coming

if vitality management keeps kicks, i will crash OUT

im also funny and sarcastic wow im flattered

WAIT CHATGPT SAID IM RECOGNISABLE???? but no one here knows me or remembers me like that... i will take the compliment anyways though
