+1 bad decision imo, but I hope that the two find new teams soon if the move come through

2022-01-01 15:55

+1 sonic god

2022-01-01 16:27

sonic like kjaerbye, he seems good on paper but I think without him the team will benefit a lot with consistency

2022-01-01 17:02

complexity is rumored to be signing those guys

2022-01-01 23:33

rip marke's career

2022-01-01 15:39

I thought minus was going to bnb? Still a very solid lineup for NA stealing some parts from BnB

He probably was and Extra Salt swooped in

2022-01-01 16:54

I don't see them getting rid of MarKE and Sonic lmao

I think they should've picked up oBo as well

2022-01-01 15:43

Looks promising, but oBo and MarKE instead of Infinite and Swisher would've been even better in my humble opinion

swisher is actually a really talented rifler

Definitely, not arguing with that, but oBo is a tier above swisher (he could be a tier 1 player) and he's 5 years younger.

2022-01-01 15:46

wtf who would go to g2 instead of hunter then

2022-01-01 15:42

doesn't sound good enough, will be top 30 at most

2022-01-01 15:46

Wait isn't Bad News Bears picking up Minus??

#31 Who would turn down Extra Salt + salary for BnB without Swisher ...

2022-01-01 17:03

It's great for the NA scene, but getting Shakezullah or even AZR instead of daps and moving him to back to the coaching role would be better in my opinion.

2022-01-01 15:53

meh, I'm kind of excited daps is back to playing he's always been very good at bringing up new talents. idk if he could potentially replicate that in a coaching position but he certainly knows how to do it as an igl and has T1 experience shakezullah I've never watched play so idk what his individual level is although I assume it isn't that bad. imo both have very important boots to fill in the NA scene, wouldn't mind either being the igl here !

2022-01-01 17:05

Looks good Got quite players from BnB and PA, a solid awp prospect and 2 veterans Has potencial but it will be a squad, that I fell, will be poached down the line GL to them and the ES org. Hope this lineup does well and they stick around for a while :)

I just want NA players in t1 so if they get poached im kinda glad since I feel like there is enough talent in NA that is untapped

NA Historically just had a crap development path for talent. Stuff like that takes years, you need the right people to teach the right methods and right stuff. NA nowadays is better but the next crop of talent (aka current up comers and players coming up in the next years) will still suffer from their worst prep when faced with CIS/EU. Lets hope daps/ES helps in that regard, but I have my doubts it will bridge the know-how/experience/development done in regions like Brazil, EU and CIS Time will tell

2022-01-01 17:02

they can dominate na if liquid and eg move to europe

2022-01-01 16:51

rush and daps in one team xd gl

2022-01-01 16:53

actually nice seeing na having multiple teams man

2022-01-01 16:53

I don’t see why get rid of Sonic and Marke tbh unless they already have another plan.

2022-01-01 16:56

Daps - All brain, negative aim RUSH - Very selfless but one of the worst fraggers in the world 2021. Has to be better. Has been doing well vs FPL in NA so maybe he steps up Swisher - Kinda average player IMO. May get a buff from being salaried though Infinite - Good talent, hopefully he can keep ego in check Minus - Great young talent. He and Infinite will need to carry a bit IMO All in all decently worse than current ES IMO but still one of the best NA teams. WIll hover around top 30 as they do well in NA events IMO

2022-01-01 21:25

so you're saying that daps > JT in terms of IGL'ing ? i mean i really respect daps and all he has done for NA but in my point of view hes kinda washed up

2022-01-01 22:08

Looks good, glad to see that Extra Salt is still sticking around after the core of their team got poached by other teams. Maybe this will also make other orgs interested in getting an NA team.

2022-01-01 22:12

they dropped bwills for RUSH not bad
