Forum thread: Navi future

they could have taken headtrick who could play secondary awp, not a problem when they are already changing strats and positions

surely better than npl

2023-01-26 20:27

I think headtr1ck wanted to become main AWP so they put him on transfer instead of keeping him signed to NaVi Jr.

so they decided to try and nuke his career by saying he is not ready for t1 and benching him on navi jr. NAVI has lost a great opportunity, it is hard to believe that headtrick would simply say that he will not play any other role when presented with such possibility with navi.

"Nuke his career" bro he's in NiP now getting real experience against T1 and most likely a very good paycheck. NaVi doesn't need an AWPer, therefore they're not going to keep a kid who wants to play on T1 in academy contract hell. It was the same with m0nesy.

He wanted to play awp. Read his interview. braindead hltv users as always

Could have been. Very hard to read I guess. Also which interview? Did you talk with him personally by giving him a full time contract that he rejected?

2023-01-27 21:05

they should've kept the 6 men roster

2023-01-26 20:56

shouldve just kept sdy atleast they won something with him

2023-01-27 12:30

1 reply

But they didn't progress with him. So it was logical to try something new

2023-01-27 21:03

Whats the point tho? If you dont trust NPL, then just kick him. If you trusted sdy enough, then should have kept him only for all maps. This is not online CS anymore. You need just 5 players. 6 man is useless. Specially with Major coming in few months. Even if you lose, you learn atleast something and also the player gets some more game time in tier1.

2023-01-27 21:06

unlucky group with g2. Navi is still strong but -sdy +npl sure was stupid.

2023-01-26 20:25

nipl is too young to make it big. Would have maybe worked with somedieyoung but simples ego stands in the way of success.

2023-01-26 20:28

Do they want to train up nip be a IGL?

I am not sure, but electronic not be an IGL is better than be an IGL right? So now the main step Navi need to do is find an IGL to help electronic change his position. If Navi can't find a good IGL from other free agent, then train up npl is it the best choice?

2023-01-27 20:07

1 reply

Yeah, it's a terrible waste to have him as IGL. But a rookie as IGL? It'll take years maybe even...

2023-01-28 03:21

It seems to me that they want to train nip to be the next electronic. Electronic is gonna stay as an IGL. I remember Blade said something like "Perfecto will be a star and Electronic will be an IGL in the future". So the current lineup somehow fits in Blade's plan of Navi's future. The problem of Navi now is they don't have either a good Electronic or 2018/2021 S1mple. There is no way for anything to work when S1mple is playing like this. And the chemistry among everybody is clearly not good, and S1mple is at least not trying to improve it by becoming the "real" star and the "real" center of the team who takes the initiative to hold everything together and encourage everyone. This is what disappointed me the most. S1mple said several times that he wanted to become a role model, so perhaps at least lose the weight?

2023-01-27 17:09

6 replies

I don't think Perfecto will be a star player, npl's potential is better than Perfecto. We know Perfecto is 23 but npl only 17. Electronic should put more resources in npl not all put in s1mple as s1mple's performance already dropping. Ok I am talking shit ;D

2023-01-27 20:16

5 replies

nah bro you are good. Yeah the thing about Perfecto is that he seems to have really high IQ, so perhaps they want to make him a star because of that.

2023-01-28 02:28

4 replies

If so why Navi don't put Perfecto in IGL role?? I can't understand why Electronic must to be an IGL... it's really waste his talent :( They tried long long time to prove and found out Electronic is not a good choice to be an IGL but keep no change.

2023-01-28 18:08

3 replies

I dont really know.. perhaps because perfecto is a really good support and on CT side it is hard to IGL and play support at the same time. For real, I dont know, but Electronic is not really a good choice, I agree. But perhaps we can give him more time, perhaps 1 year? I dont know. The urgency is that S1mple does not have 1 more year, and if everyone needs more time to get used to their roles, when they become really used to their roles, S1mple's downfall will come completely. So for real, I really think that S1mple should IGL, he has god game sense we all know about that.

2023-01-28 20:17

Actually I do agree s1mple to be an IGL especially his mental really not good now. We should give time b1t and npl as they are young, but Electronic and Perfecto not ;(

2023-01-28 23:18

s1mple IGL -NPL + DEKO

2023-01-26 20:37

1 reply

I highly agree on the first part. S1mple is clearly declining, and unless he is determined to lose weight and really have a healthy life -- which is hard for someone whose life is already distorted -- his form will not come back. But he can still decently awp, just become an IGL like Cadian and Fallen, they are still awpers. And we know S1mple has god game sense, so perhaps he has the most potential in Navi to become a great IGL. Set Electronic free to be a star, and let NPL learn the positions of Boombl4. Other people in Navi shouldn't change position for NPL, NPL should learn new positions for Navi.

2023-01-27 17:18

I personaly love npl but he just doesnt fit the team... they need a proper igl not a young talent...

2023-01-26 20:38

war abusers everywhere if it wasnt for war nothing would have changed and navi wouldve kept on winning 80% of maps played war actually destroyed navi, its over for s1mple's career, theres legit no turning back since its still an ongoing issue its not like it ends after a month

They need a proper IGL so elec can focus on fragging again. With which IGL will the NAVI machine work again? Right, Big Boom. Bring him back.

the nearest navi future - losing to NA team in Blast gauntlet. the more distant future - get knocked out of Kato by Havu.

2023-01-26 20:53

As Blade said, they need an IGL and right now there are no good IGLs in the market take a look at this interview: youtube.com/watch?v=7FFhbTULHy0

Blade meant they are not looking for another IGL because they don't need another IGL. And how can you know there are no good IGL without looking for one? or please point the place in the interview where Blade says 'we need an IGL'

2023-01-27 14:38

Dont wory, they will be fine. Even yesterday, altough they played bad, the luck wasnt on their side. They lost almost all eco rounds, thats 4 rounds on Nuke and thats already different game.

Ofc, there is not something right, but all of them where so close, that maybe not that much. Just wait for Katowice, another Gchoke inc and NiKo wont be so lucky killing tru smokes like this tournament.

we'll see, i hope that won't happen but the old G2 choke still lingers somewhere deep down inside

2023-01-28 04:48

Just fucking bring Boombl4 back if you can't do like a proper buyout. Will it return NaVi to trophy winning form? Probably not, but at least it will help them stay in the top 5.

Anyone have link to that quote of electronic malding at bit

2023-01-27 16:30

npl is a great talent and after he learns most maps he will become one of the best entries in the scene. Just look at his inferno rating if you don’t believe me on this. He hasn’t had enough time to adjust to t1, adjust to his teammates, adjust to a different map pool and positions. Also, electroNic will only get better at igling over time. s1mple easily has another 2 years in the tank, so just calm down (he’s already past his prime)

2023-01-27 17:20

By ur analogy, NiKo and ZyWoO is past prime as well

2023-01-27 20:42

1 reply

ZywOo surely isn’t, and NiKo and s1mple has been doing this for a long time so he’s gonna fall off sooner or later. Building a team for a veteran player makes no sense

2023-01-27 22:47

people said the same about flameZ too during his debut iirc his hyper aggressive entries got high stats, but fell off after being read and countered by teams the same would happen to npl most likely

2023-01-28 05:05

1 reply

You don’t know and can’t assume that he isn’t capable of adapting. FlameZ is also the second best player on OG, so idk what ur on about

2023-01-28 03:33

navi have no future

2023-01-28 15:09

IMO just give them time. B1ad3 set forth realistic expectations for the team. It will need hard work but I’m sure they will be in decent shape for Paris major and reach atleast semis.

2023-01-28 23:19

i agree but that's NAVI for ya
