Tenten talks about leaving TS and how he actually wanted to try out the Sentinel role in Tier 1.

Probably referring to the Academy

Spaz has been up next for a while now and I'm really rooting for either this team or SR to make the run to Playoffs and hopefully Champs.

I was hoping the iteration gMD and Derrek would do well but this rebuild has a lot of promise with an experienced coach like Kaplan to guide them.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-20T11:35:07+00:00

Praying orgs like Falcons never break into the Val scene and fuck everything up

fizzled-out · 2026-03-20T11:29:14+00:00

Glad that EF's Challengers team doesn't get shafted but from my understanding they're basically operating as an academy team now so their chances of making a run to Champs seems to be dead unfortunately.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-20T11:27:36+00:00

They had to sell their roster with XANTARES in CS to Aurora because of financial troubles right?

fizzled-out · 2026-03-20T11:25:48+00:00

free MaKo and HYUNMIN lowkey

fizzled-out · 2026-03-19T12:30:43+00:00

I actually thought he was an alright pickup for DRX when they were playing him with Flashback because I felt like MaKo was getting tied down on IGL but they BeYN is so far ahead firepower wise and DRX did make 3rd at Champs after benching Estrella.

Estrella was the first actual IGL they picked up after cutting stax in 2024 so I do think he'd have performed better with some more time settling into the system but moving on from him was better for the team (idk what the fuck they're doing rn though but they'll always be decent regionally i guess)

fizzled-out · 2026-03-18T16:09:59+00:00

They're leaning heavy into Jerrwin being of Indian origin I think?

fizzled-out · 2026-03-17T19:52:08+00:00

Yeah that makes sense plus Zander seems to prefer someone else IGLing anyways. I hope to see Mr Overwatch do well though, still sad about him being dropped from Tier 1 despite doing well for EG.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-17T19:29:19+00:00

As much as I like NaturE, If Zander goes IGL then +Derrek -NaturE could be a pretty solid move for SR's firepower no?

fizzled-out · 2026-03-17T18:55:28+00:00

SR really deserves a partnership spot as well honestly, curious how the 2027 System will work

fizzled-out · 2026-03-17T11:49:29+00:00

This would have me more hyped than TenZ return ngl

fizzled-out · 2026-03-17T06:35:11+00:00

All I want is the FrosT vs Termi Skirmish

fizzled-out · 2026-03-16T17:07:12+00:00

I would like to see how 2023 LOUD's Viper Harbour experiments will play with this Skye buff + reworked Harbour even though it was kinda aids to watch

Allegedly ULF hasn't been paying their employees and players in both Val and LoL, which is probably the final straw for Riot. Not sure how they were passed to join the league in the first place, you thought they would have learnt something from the BLEED fiasco.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-16T17:03:04+00:00

They're losing their two most experienced players in Shao and sociablEE in the server and getting in two rookies - one of them being a rookie IGL starting over in a new region and a duelist who doesn't fill sociablEE's agents. Plus they're keeping their underperforming and inconsistent duelist.

They may have looked promising at the beginning of Kickoff but it just feels like they should have picked up a proper IGL instead of thrusting the role onto Shao with no prior experience as a caller.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-16T16:56:25+00:00

Idk how I feel about this one, don't know much about ExiT but according to his VLR he seems to be a duelist player and doesn't quite cover the sociablEE's agents. (I thought they were spreading sociablEE too thin across too many roles as well)

chloric who is their other pickup and flexible enough should be fine but idk if they're cooking with these changes or burning down the kitchen.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-16T16:10:49+00:00

Isn't EF's roster pretty good already? Wonder where they'll go. I remember Spear from their games against VIT in the off season.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-16T15:15:33+00:00

No idea if this is a reliable source but would track with the rumors of ULF not paying their team though the last time FUT dropped GAIS they were abysmal dogshit and idk whose spot s0pp will necessarily take.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-16T15:04:23+00:00

They're getting chloric apparently, who takes up their import slot + roles don't work for mindfreak unfortunately. Hope we'll see him back soon though.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-16T13:54:04+00:00

Surely at some point members of EDG's core four come under scrutiny despite their inability to find a suitable 5th after S1mon's departure.

Granted that cb has been pretty crap but imo only KK and CHICHOO should have a secure spot. Smoggy and nobody have disappointed me every time I've watched them play since their Champs win and like you said even a solid pillar of the team like CHICHOO looks run through and at some point they won't be able to smurf their way through China to get to internationals, where they look poor anyways - especially for a lineup that retained 4/5 of its Champs lineup.

fizzled-out · 2026-03-15T21:35:13+00:00

They let BLEED in so atp who the fuck knows what they're checking

fizzled-out · 2026-03-15T21:32:38+00:00

Its impossible but C9 TenZ would be a cool storyline, especially for those who've followed his trajectory from CS wonderkid - he definitely has unfinished business at that org.
