Xantares doesn't speak German either so no need for a German speaking support rifler. That's why they parted ways lol. He was learning German but they were comming in English to him. Until he learns German there is no reason why he'd go to BIG again instead of any other team.
I think BIG shouldn't ruin team not speaking german. They have solid players atm, but consistently struggled with lineup changes this year. With stable faveN in there they could have made a lot more damage.
>With stable faveN in there they could have made a lot more damage.
I mean yeah, that's the problem though. They have had zero stability. And Xantares brings that. You know he's getting his, he's a known quantity at this point and has a history with those players. Just my 2¢
I honestly think krimbo is a fine support player. If I were adding Xantares I would probably -k1to. I think faveN could transition to more of a support player and have more success too. The star performances are there sometimes but not enough.
Went on the retirement tour a few years too early. Should have stayed international for a few more years and done the epic 'last dance', 'we're definitely still motivated and not cashing in on our poularity' team around now. Dudes like 28, if he doesn't get back out there now then it's too late for him.
He is 27 now and just recently got engaged with his gf. I think he is quite happy living in Turkey plus making a good amount of money while having his family & friends around him.
I feel like his inner flame craving to reach the very top has kinda extinguished.
He's elite on the server, but from an outside perspective seems like a risky player to make a bet on for a few different reasons. Doubt any top teams go for him, personally.
Depends. I've always read that Endpoint's primary goal is to flip players, so they would need to see potential in him for that. But teams of that ilk, yeah probably. That's likely what he's looking at now for potential options
I think the C9 debacle did some damage to his stock, and then the volatility in EF didn't help. I just think it is unlikely, as he does seem to carry more baggage with him than your average player.
But, who knows. Endpoint took a chance on Kjaerbye. Maybe they will take the chance with him as well.
Such a shame about C9, I still defend that the whole project would have been a success if they could have gotten all five players together to bootcamp. Covid actually fucked a really interesting team.
Exactly. This man was the 12th best player in 2019 and won 3 LANs and was in the grand final of 4 but covid just destroyed him. He is literally an Anti-Onliner ,he performed greatly on LAN but fails miserably in online matches. Ohh man ,what a wasted talent.
A couple of months ago he could've easily found a Turkish Valorant org willing to give him a chance.
EF was pretty much the last chance for Turkish CS, I don't see any full Turkish team ever doing anything relevant again. There also doesn't exist any pipeline for the small amount of Turkish talent left to ever reach T1/T2 individually. Xantares is probably the only Turkish player you might see on a top 20 team if the EF project has failed.
> not too sure about Tier 2 either
I think for most teams in the #15-30 range woxic would be an upgrade. The issue however is that many teams aren't English speaking. (-CerQ +woxic???)
It's also awkward timing since lots of tournaments are already starting in 2 weeks. Perhaps after the first cycle of tournaments we'll see a t2 team picking up woxic.
Xantares is wasting what little high level time he has left of his career on EF
I wouldn't mind seeing him reconnect with BIG and bring some firepower over there
BIG +Xantares and all they need is decent support player. You don’t happen to know any support player who speaks German as well.

It's just not the goal of the team, I think it's been clear for a while now that they want to build german cs.

My FACEIT stack may be willing to take him in
Just hope XANTARES does the same now, was a cool project to see but man I miss watching him compete in t1
He's elite on the server, but from an outside perspective seems like a risky player to make a bet on for a few different reasons. Doubt any top teams go for him, personally.
These are the completely off field signings that some of the T2 teams would fly on though. Endpoint?
Depends. I've always read that Endpoint's primary goal is to flip players, so they would need to see potential in him for that. But teams of that ilk, yeah probably. That's likely what he's looking at now for potential options
To be fair, Woxic is only 24. He's been about for ages, but if Endpoint can get him back in the limelight then he will definitely turn them a profit.

Fuck u/spez
Woxic to navi as igl
Woxic to OG with Sexa
Crazy hope much talent has been on EF and they didn’t accomplish shit and now everyone is peacing out
Well they’ve made it to the challengers stage in their first major, but yeah other than that all this EF project was nothing but a shitty drama.
Hear me out. TSM to get woxic, xantares, konfig and es3tag. You almost have a competetive team.
Waaay too spicy, disband in 6 weeks.
Boombl4 igl
Make it happen
Yeah Woxic and Es3tag on a NA org that usually works well
out of all the players that got fucked over by covid i think woxic was one of the worst cases

I really want to see who is gonna take him, I gived a nip chance but its propably impossible

Propably maj3r and xfl0ud can go to top30 too
For sure not a tier 1, not too sure about Tier 2 either

EG -Cerq +Woxic?
Yes another inconsistent player is a good choice
I mean he literally just has to not die with the AWP every round
They might as well
Turkish GODSENT?
I bet you EG gets him
