in this video, i go over all the changes going on in EMEA pertaining to 2025. Giving them a ranking based on the performance i think they'll have during the season. i answer all questions here: x.com/erafps community server: / discord
I think the comparison to 2024 NRG is wrong as 2024 NRG had certain role issues with Demon1 not being good enough at solo entrying with how NRG set them up as well as crashies not being able to play Gekko. It's also easy to argue that Vitality have far better firepower than 2024 NRG with Sayf, Trexx, Less, and Derke all having been top 5 fraggers in their regions before.
While that is true, there might still be IGLing issues, outcalling against boaster and now saadhak too for someone like sayf. I just don’t see it and with a team like this, anything below at least one international is a failure imho. Is cender going 100% done? I really hope he stays
KC Scream, NRG Ethan and SEN Marved are examples of what happens when you put experienced players who are not igls on the igl role. None of them worked.
@@yashtandon7460 Marved had slight igl experience on Faze before, and I definitely think he had the best run - which was still pretty underwhelming. A strong igl/coach combo can take a team much farther than just picking up the strongest players. I think Marved could have worked, but due to the role issues and constant roster switching Sen was doing at the time it was doomed to fail.
I think if bbl pick up anguist , they are solid . Also lewn was not the best choice for duelist . If they had gotten xeus somehow then this team could've been a really freak lineup to look forward to.
i mean, i'd argue that fnc have a pretty solid chance at the top spot again, especially now that they have a more flexible duelist (kaajak can compentely play neon,yoru, jett and raze) whereas derke whilst probably being the better raze and jett, is far worse at neon and yoru. and as time goes on yoru and neon will go up in power as teams learn how to play around them. And if not for that pro's have sunken 5-10k hours in to jett/raze we would see neon and yoru dominating the meta because they're just the better agents
All that Vitality need to do to turn into one of the best teams in VCT is replace kicks with a proper experienced IGL and put him on the IGL role rather than Sayf
If Vitality is actually going to make Sayf the igl, I would highly doubt that VIT will be a strong team in EMEA. Some teams like NRG and Sentinels already made this move and it didn't went well so VIT might not be good as we expect rn but we will see
honestly vitality pick I disagreed with at first but now that I think about it solid take the only one I maybe don't agree with is like navi and I would move fut up a little bit overall I love the analysis I think u might've earned a sub
Riot really need to like give ascension teams some money when they ascend, like imagine you pumped millions into getting into t1 just for all your players to run away the moment you win
i like your take on the VIT situation they have a high chance of being NRG 2025 but FUT over VIT i disagree i think the firepower alone can carry them that much
imo, heretics will not win anything with miniboo as their only duelist, they should something similar to how EG played with jawg and demon1, where wo0t will play jett/raze and miniboo can play neon, because wo0t is better than mini on those duelists, and they had wo0t as duelist in shanghai which was when they were playing their best all year.
@@erafps1 fair. APEKS picking up hoody imo might make them better compared to the one with soulcas, also when the pressure set in for kaajak, he fumbled so it could very well be a blessing in disguise (cope). I miss hoody's chamber
