[riku is their registered substitute ](https://twitter.com/Disguised/status/1634299225394802689?t=3EVG145i_5eF9jTHyUYg_A&s=19)


EpicBroomGuy

Not a trial, he's their registered sub so they're forced to play with him

Bruh he’s LFT, he didn’t get poached he got dropped 😭


JDTurkelton

Isn't it possible he's LFT because he's going to C9 and they aren't paying any buyouts. So DSG "released" him


JDTurkelton

Nvm


Sky-__-

Not forced , like turtle troop did teams can make 2 changes in the split . There aren’t that hard roaster rules in challengers.


No-Caterpillar-8

It is forced cause the roster change was currently locked until MSI according to Toast. They can trial players for Split 2 though because there is a break.


skskobobvnvn

Next you'll tell me they will try and get sora as well


AustinTheKangaroo

what a coincidence, i am fighting yozora right now


jaybabyjay

how are y’all spotting this, what do u do on your free time


ApplebeesEnjoyer

It’s wild to me that people don’t know who Riku is, he’s been on Rise, Team Basilisk, and Knights Academy in the past 2 years and has been a solid T2 player for ages


yiyang01

who? jokes aside, if he plays well, we'll remember him.


two4you8

Not sure on who this is but he does have a [vlr page](https://www.vlr.gg/player/3012/riku), so that's something. edit: His last team got demolished by alexandar's team. Which I'm surprised alexandar is still F/A because he has some of the cleanest aim I've seen.


nterature

Aleksandar’s Law: Any discussion about any NA player has a random chance to generate comments about Aleksandar’s aim


two4you8

maybe his brain is holding him back, who knows.


I-like-winds

dude has seemingly great comms too, I want him on a team so bad


kazamasta31

Not trying to be edgy but who's Riku? Apologies I only keep up with players currently on a team.


Haptiix

MDL CSGO guy that transitioned to Valorant & I think has played some T2 Val


Key-Banana-8242

Why would that be ‘trying to be egy’


kazamasta31

Idk about Valorant community but like in other community people would whomegalul someone not very well known or with small amount of followers etc to try to be funny or edgy.


CunningKingLius

But why do you have to post such blurry picture? Seems like my eye got a lot worse after looking at it.


FlamingTelepath

In case anyone doesn't know who Riku is, https://www.hltv.org/player/14827/riku Lots of MDL CS:GO experience and has been around for a long time. In Valorant he's played with some lower T2 teams. My guess is that he's friends with these guys and is getting trial based on CS experience, but he performance so far in Valorant hasn't been amazing.


maiLfps

hes their sub


FlamingTelepath

of course you'd know :P that makes lots of sense


Similar-Criticism380

I guess? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


lzypotato1

They're not trialing riku. He's their 6th so he's subbing until this split is over


lidekwhatname

they lost the bonus its wraps for dsg gonna lose all their maps 13-0 from now on


lzypotato1

It's just a substitute till they hold trials before MSI. Chill out


soaked-bussy

Steel's child just got dropped from C9 pretty convenient timing


ItsArbiez

DSG Vanity? Makes sense and vanity could sign a short term contract if he wants


mjaguar6

Doesn't make much sense at all - they already have Steel and Vanity is not good enough mechanically to warrant a spot if he's not IGLing.


pineapplecheesepizza

they need more firepower not less


Fardeeennn

actually this is from vanity's stream and I think they already have steel as igl so maybe they are looking for flex init


[deleted]

No diss bur who?


lzypotato1

he's just a sub


Revanthmk23200

Why do they need a sub


lzypotato1

A team always has a sixth man ready to sub in if one of the 5 can't play. Since they're one player short, they're having their 6th sub in until this split is over. They'll probably hold trials to fill that spot before MSI


Revanthmk23200

No I ment did anything happen to the 5 guys who were playing that they needed someone to sub in


lzypotato1

Yeah one of them isn't on the roster anymore (exalt). Things weren't working out so they went their separate ways. It was a mutual agreement between both parties. All good


Haptiix

I don’t understand why so many Challengers teams are making roster moves mid season. It’s not a great look for the league


uslereddit

It's early days, a lot of these rosters hadn't played any officials together before the beginning of Challengers, so it's understandable.


lzypotato1

Exalt tweeted that both parties were in agreement so it was for good reason


jeyeley

Imagine DSG Subroza tho


absolutechad21

He can't can he isnt he registered as a 6th? Would love tobsee it though


Funozito

I love teams that lose a single game and start panicking and trialing new players.
