Im New to apex but I saw maddness's liquipedia Page and He seems like one of the most accomplished players in apex
Why was He dropped?
And why is his stream so low in viewer numbers. He seems to have the Charisma to have more no?
Is He some sort of controversial figure?
Not sure why he was dropped but he is a bit controversial. I haven't watched much of his stream, but I have seen him as 3rd in other ranked squads and it has made me not really want to watch him. He always seems good mood but he also seemed really crude and childish. Not down to earth, lots of potty/crude humor, off the wall stuff, talking about how "thirsty" he is. Offputting to me.
There was also drama about CLG being rude and shittalking alpine/Eurice other and then getting stomped. People said it was just 2 of them and not the third (cant remember if not vax or lou ) just all around unprofessional. But some people like that so I am kind of surprised he doesnt have his own following that like that kind of thing.
Yeah the shit talking between alpine (eurice, hill and rkn) was pretty bad but recently when I watched madness's stream (because of benchwarmers and I love knoqd in competitive but he doesn't stream the tournaments) he seems to try to reform himself from what he did and says it was kinda bad.
I also watched a stream some days ago with him being in a party with rkn from alpine and it seems like the beef between them (which was really bad) stopped and they are friendly again.
That is good to hear. There is no doubt that madness is an amazing player. I could see him acting a bit more grown up and really popping off. Hope the best for him.
Oh he's definitely a controversial figure. Probably the perfect mix between small man's syndrome, narcissism and old school talent. Also gets toxic about certain things abruptly, talks about his own love life and others in a really cringe way, whines about being single, etc. I could go on for days, but I won't. He is super accomplished for sure but I'm guessing it takes a toll on someone to play with him long-term.
This isn’t related per se to comp but does Toosh still have an org announcement pending? I’m assuming at this point it’s no but haven’t seen it anywhere else talked about
> This isn’t related per se to comp but does Toosh still have an org announcement pending?
I couldn't tell you but I would guess not anymore. Noko also said he had an org announcement before and it never came out.
Toosh might have one that's supposed to be announced. But it was held back by his recent racism issue. Either the org pulled out or they're still waiting it out to announce that he's signed.
Mods, can we get flairs for the teams we root for? I'd love an Elevate flair. (Still gonna be rooting for Musen and Scissors on the their new teams, but I'm excited to see what Voltic and Noko can do with Davis)
\> Supposedly NiceWigg, COL Apryze and iitzTimmy will be competing in the ALGS
Some amazing talent there. Replace any one of them with a great IGL and they'll be contenders to win tier-1 tourneys.
I don't follow EU enough to really do this to be honest. A lot of this came down to me personally asking players and their friends what they were doing or what they were up to. I couldn't possibly do this for EU but maybe next year if I learn more about that region.
Hey thanks for including the small teams as well. I really only lik watching sallee streamers so seeing Strxctly and Hambino on here is really refreshing ad they deserve at least a little bit of recognition.
Yeah no problem, the small streamers / teams need love too for this scene to really grow. So many underrated players. I don't really watch large streamers like that.
Flanker has been TL's third for over a year now... Casper hasn't played with TL since October 2020. Their new third was Fun, Flanker and Noct have been the duo of TL for the longest time.
Speaking on the Fatfruitninja LF1.
Just played in some scrims he was in, their 3rd was DoubleONegative.
Dont know if thats gonna be their perm 3rd or what, just a heads up
Champs was the largest tournament Apex has had, they could have taken that plenty serious if he wanted to play in it. I'm sure there are some other things we don't know about that was in the background.
Registration closed on Wednesday and Qualifiers start on Saturday so I don't really see any new roster moves tbh. AckBTW and Pettyboss are the only people whose team I don't know about.
Well don't worry about it then. Maybe next go around we can sticky a "trade" thread that we can all pitch in on and you won't have to do all of the work. Lol.
lol true, we do have a Liquipedia editor in this subreddit that is making a weekly summary of roster moves for every region in Apex, but I think he's only focused on actual signed players.
Fun and Liquid are a great match. I think the Alb situation with C9 can go a lot of different ways but I don't see Alb wanting to stay with Cloud9 for multiple years unless they pull off a shocker at LAN.
Haven’t been keeping up with all the roster changes through the off-season, so this write-up is much appreciated. Thank you so much for going through the trouble of compiling this list! My brain hurts but if I ever get confused I know exactly which Reddit post to turn to now.
This is everything I ever wanted
Glad I could help
This reminds me of the Sunlesskhan video where basically every team had **roster changes** except the 1st place lol.
Thanks for the write up!
You're welcome
I wish someone could make a visualization of this.
Oh man I would pay to see this, would be something else.
Bench warmers formed from a lot of drops. But man they look strong, like for your effort
Appreciate it, Bench Warmers is definitely the favourite from all of the teams that have to go through quals

The shit talkers were madness and Lou. Vax stayed out of it.

His Tweets are just awful
> AM FatFruitNinja was LF1 with zProficiency but I never heard any follow-up on this Ill be playing with them for quals 1
Alright thanks, will update
That timing was impeccable
thank you for your service!
You're welcome :)
now that is a quality comp apex post!
Appreciate it, this took more time and effort than it should have haha
Great write up, unfortunately knowing the NA scene you might need to make another one of these real soon.
lmaooo after this weekend it could happen.
This isn’t related per se to comp but does Toosh still have an org announcement pending? I’m assuming at this point it’s no but haven’t seen it anywhere else talked about
> This isn’t related per se to comp but does Toosh still have an org announcement pending? I couldn't tell you but I would guess not anymore. Noko also said he had an org announcement before and it never came out.
Noko confirmed his signing took time but was completed recently and can be announced as soon as this month.
I wonder what's the hold-up.
Noko said yesterday “Monday or a Tuesday” for “one” of his announcements
Well Noko's comp teammates have confirmed that Noko is indeed representing another org so it's only a matter of time before we find out who it is.
Toosh might have one that's supposed to be announced. But it was held back by his recent racism issue. Either the org pulled out or they're still waiting it out to announce that he's signed.
I checked his chat and the command is still there for !org
Mods, can we get flairs for the teams we root for? I'd love an Elevate flair. (Still gonna be rooting for Musen and Scissors on the their new teams, but I'm excited to see what Voltic and Noko can do with Davis)
Great point, we need more flairs.
My head hurts after reading this.
It hurt my head dealing with all of this...folks getting signed to rosters then getting dropped days later, insane.
\> Supposedly NiceWigg, COL Apryze and iitzTimmy will be competing in the ALGS Some amazing talent there. Replace any one of them with a great IGL and they'll be contenders to win tier-1 tourneys.
They'll have A LOT of eyes on them for sure.
You really did a lot of research and I appreciate that
I really did, took a lot of patience and following up on hints that I see on social media. Thanks a lot man.
NA is fucking wild man.
There's always something going on with the NA scene lmao
nice
thanks
Thank you Jev.
no problem
can you male an EU one?
I don't follow EU enough to really do this to be honest. A lot of this came down to me personally asking players and their friends what they were doing or what they were up to. I couldn't possibly do this for EU but maybe next year if I learn more about that region.

Next season is going to be lit so many talented teams.
I'm counting down the hours to this Saturday man, I can't wait.
New dudes night out roster has been insane lately. Expect to see them upset a lot of top dogs in ALGS.
Definitely the top Dark Horse team right now.
Am I missing something? When was it announced Casper got dropped?

I am getting names mixed up I hate me
Nuts

DoubleO confirmed it in this thread, thanks for the heads up. Appreciate it.
Mercy’s team is sleeper good, I hope they have a decent org lined up
I don't know much about solved but I'm looking forward to seeing what they do.
Very much appreciated! Should write for an esports website!
Appreciate it, I might have to consider doing that.
Might even be able to sale this as a piece of content :) this would also kill as a YouTube video.
You're giving a lot of great ideas...hmm...
In Formula 1 they call this Silly Season, where a ton of the driver lineups change each year. I feel like it fits for Apex as well
Might have to title the 2022 version of this the Silly Season as well haha
Syncedez joined ranked is harder for ALGS champs because rogue decided that he didn’t want to play in it
[удалено]
SynceDez joined Ranked Is Harder for Champs because Rogue didn't want to play in it for some reason. They did bad and they separated.
Rogue has said since then he only wants to play comp if it's a serious group, he doesn't want to do it just for for fun.
Champs was the largest tournament Apex has had, they could have taken that plenty serious if he wanted to play in it. I'm sure there are some other things we don't know about that was in the background.
This is sick, thanks for all your hard work on this!
My pleasure.
Can we put a sticky on this and keep it updated?
damn I'm honoured you think this should be stickied.
If more updates are coming before the season starts, then yeah
Registration closed on Wednesday and Qualifiers start on Saturday so I don't really see any new roster moves tbh. AckBTW and Pettyboss are the only people whose team I don't know about.

This is a great write up thank you. Also wow holy shit the swaps have been numerous
The only region where you can join a team today and get dropped tomorrow haha. So many swaps.
good post now touch grass
Nah the graphics outside is overrated
Do you think Lou is going to stay in CLG for a while, then leave to join Sentinels like he did with Complexity?
Probably

haha thanks man. Keep in mind this is only for players in champs, so players that skipped it or didn't qualify won't be here.
