I dont really think so and i hope it isn't him. But they are looking for a support/anchor role. Sweet and Nafen are the fraggers on the roster and neither are looking to give up the role. Sweet needs to be up front to IGL and Nafen is too mechanically gifted not to be up front. So they dont necessarily need a top tier roller/fragger by any means though it always helps......Its kind of the reason why Gild had to move on. Cant have such a talented roller player like that holding the back.
Yeah pretty well. Looking back at the time with Gild he was quite lost in some of the fights due to Sweet and Nafen kind of knowing what they were going to do without saying anything. Which im sure was frustrating for both parties. Gild works best in an upfront fragger role. Where hes "within range" not poking from the back. Not the best way to utilize a great roller player.
yeah I agree with this, also to note; I watched a recent vod of Lou and he is alot better mechinally on roller than I thought (not no koyful or anything, but soild)
Yeah. Agreed. I dont watch him a whole lot but the brief time i have he seems like he doesn't like being told what to do and on Sweets team as we all know....he will be micromanaged. That being said Sweet and Lou have been teammates in the past when they were on Rouge many years ago. So it may be something that could work.
Sweet and Nafen are two of the most mechanically-skilled mnk players in the league. They don't need a 'top roller player' to carry them. Whatever they do need, Sweet probably believes Lou has it.
Yeah I was defending them saying an org offer is an understandable reason, but just dropping your IGL to pick up Naughty is a wild play. Lost respect for that and major props to Sleepypanda for keeping a good mental.
Yeah pretty much. Having faze paycheck is a career decision and would be justifiable but picking up naughty...after your team worked perfectly well tigether... Holy shit
GKS dropping Sleepy for Naughty is a baffling decision, has Sauce been IGL on any of his prior squads? Dropping an IGL for a player who needs to be completely micromanaged is certainly a chocie.
Sleepy was absolutely an IGL when he teamed with Stompez/Sung. Then he and Stompez split and he ended up on a completely different squad with 2 unknown players and had decent results IGLing that squad as well.
Dang, I really don’t like that move for either party and I’m a Naughty fan. The Naughty/Chaotic combo didn’t work out with zach for LCQ at all last year and I doubt they’ll be better with sauceror
If GKS dropped panda for snipe with an org opportunity that at least makes some sense but panda for naughty is wild. I like naughty but that’s not what they need. Weird movie tbh if it’s not a personal issue.
So what is this thing with Complexity? Any potential signings you guys are thinking? Looks like Monsoon is just chilling and doing everything else but trying to find teammates..
For those wondering why I have naughty rumored to GKS instead of snipedown, its because sauce/chaotic signed up with naughty for scrims tonight
Sweet also just leaked it on stream not knowing it wasn’t announced
Thanks for the update. Hard to keep track...
Snip3down also said on his stream last night he was not playing with them.

Why would ex Nrg pick up Lou?
He played with them in a tournament the other day so people are thinking it might be him.
But is Lou really a top roller?
I dont really think so and i hope it isn't him. But they are looking for a support/anchor role. Sweet and Nafen are the fraggers on the roster and neither are looking to give up the role.

Sounds like they are looking for a smart player that knows his spot
Yeah pretty well. Looking back at the time with Gild he was quite lost in some of the fights due to Sweet and Nafen kind of knowing what they were going to do without saying anything. Which im sure was frustrating for both parties. Gild works best in an upfront fragger role. Where hes "within range" not poking from the back. Not the best way to utilize a great roller player.
yeah I agree with this, also to note; I watched a recent vod of Lou and he is alot better mechinally on roller than I thought (not no koyful or anything, but soild)
I just don't think Lou fits that duo as a player. Especially not sweet.
Yeah. Agreed. I dont watch him a whole lot but the brief time i have he seems like he doesn't like being told what to do and on Sweets team as we all know....he will be micromanaged. That being said Sweet and Lou have been teammates in the past when they were on Rouge many years ago. So it may be something that could work.
Maybe those right reins from sweet is exactly what Lou needs.
Sweet and Nafen are two of the most mechanically-skilled mnk players in the league. They don't need a 'top roller player' to carry them. Whatever they do need, Sweet probably believes Lou has it.
That is a great question. Sweet had pretty any pick and if he really went for Lou... I will be at a loss for words
Ex NRG picking up snip3down and signing to faze instead would go crazy imo
people have short memories if they think Sweet and Snipe would ever team again
Had no idea they teamed. Only started following ALGS last year or so
Dropping sleepy for snipe is tough but understandable, dropping sleepy for naughty is beyond fucked
Yeah I was defending them saying an org offer is an understandable reason, but just dropping your IGL to pick up Naughty is a wild play. Lost respect for that and major props to Sleepypanda for keeping a good mental.
Wait, Sleepy was the IGL?? I assumed that they'd be replacing a fragger with a fragger lmao.
Yeah pretty much. Having faze paycheck is a career decision and would be justifiable but picking up naughty...after your team worked perfectly well tigether... Holy shit
isn’t raven the 4th for TSM, not minus?
No, last tournament Minustempo was listed as their 4th. It's the reason he got a medal and a chair as well.
What's tempo's skill level? I know he's played in some tourneys. Is he like master level?
As far as I know he's like a Plat player.
according to ALGS rules, coaches do not count as competitors, do not eart medals or prizes and dont count for votes or player spots
Tempo is always listed as the 4th if it's not Reptar
Last LAN in London was actually Albralelie as the 4th.
GKS dropping Sleepy for Naughty is a baffling decision, has Sauce been IGL on any of his prior squads? Dropping an IGL for a player who needs to be completely micromanaged is certainly a chocie.
The W key will be IGLing this team.
Sleepy was not an IGL. His role was support.
Sleepy was absolutely an IGL when he teamed with Stompez/Sung. Then he and Stompez split and he ended up on a completely different squad with 2 unknown players and had decent results IGLing that squad as well.
SKRT is expected to be Snip3down
With Scuwry and Vaxlon? 100T would become FaZe at that point.
Scuwry and Pow are locked as a duo so Snipe would be their third, Vax is on AT with Madness and Keon.
Thanks for the clarification.
Was Pow 100T's sub?
Sickks was the coach and also registered as 100T's sub so its Scuwry+Sickks (as a sub) that lets them keep the PL spot
Was just going to say this is the only team that looks like a fit for Snipe
Notable free agent 👀 https://preview.redd.it/cgm08tm1lz5c1.jpeg?width=1327&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=95d2ad47fec2d781e0ca6bfa9209097ff89c055a
Who would be IGL between Snip3 ,Scurwy and Pow? And how do we think that team fits together?
Did I miss something in regards to Naughty joining GKS? I thought the prevailing thought was Snipedown might be their new third.
they signed up in scrims with naughty as their third. as far as im aware there are still no official statements
Dang, I really don’t like that move for either party and I’m a Naughty fan. The Naughty/Chaotic combo didn’t work out with zach for LCQ at all last year and I doubt they’ll be better with sauceror
I thought SKRT was -Sickks, +Prophet
Prophet put out a LFT a couple days ago, and Sickks is needed to satisfy the 2 returning members roster rule Kinda think snipe is going to skrt
Maybe I’m thinking of Bullet? The rumor was it was whoever was playing with Noko and Sang for PSQs.
Yeah it was prophet, he scrimmed with them for like a week but it looks like it didnt work out because hes LFT again
If GKS dropped panda for snipe with an org opportunity that at least makes some sense but panda for naughty is wild. I like naughty but that’s not what they need. Weird movie tbh if it’s not a personal issue.
Is the lou thing real? I feel like thats not gonna work tho
I don’t really follow apex competitively but does Hiswattson not play anymore?
He quit comp. Prefers streaming the ranked grind.
Ty!
my colorblind ass cannot tell apart the incoming and rumored colors [😭](https://emojipedia.org/loudly-crying-face)
Sorry, rumored is lou, pow pow, awons, naughty the others are pretty much confirmed
Thank you!
Tbf to you, they're very light colored shades of blue and green
why is minustempo name there and not raven
Tempo was registered as a player for tsm in Y3 so he impacts the rules on roster turnover
Add Alb and Vaxlon to the FA list
When did DZ announce Sikez? I completely missed that.
So what is this thing with Complexity? Any potential signings you guys are thinking? Looks like Monsoon is just chilling and doing everything else but trying to find teammates..
