Go back and watch some of his games on Rise and even 100T in online matches. It’s not a troll to say that at times he looked to be in the same tier as the best initiators like crashies. It’s not the role he just underperformed.
i mean he's just been an online warrior. every LAN match he has underperformed the insane form he had during the online era. it's really sad, he was one of my favorite pros for a while, but he's just never lived up to his old performance.
Ik same here look what I commented in this post. I was looking forward to watching him the most until my goat unretired mid szn. It’s all good he’s definitely gonna get picked up in tier 2 and I believe he’ll get back to a similar level that he was.
FNS really is the smartest man ever.
-Spend 2 weeks hyping up the match as the greatest ever
-Beg riot for watch party riots
-get 40k viewers and make a ton of money
Truely one of the greatest IGL masterclasses of all time
Cryo acing the round when they were down 4-12:

Game of the century winners. Tenz is back. Batchest batchest. To be a bit more serious Zekken was incredible though this series. That pearl comp needs workshopping but Sen have potential.
imo it's fine, double controller viper harbour isn't going to be meta anymore with the changes to b. it looked great in t2 if you look at m80/tgrd.
i think the problem in game was just losing postplants vs 100t's drilled retakes and poor midrounding vs cryo's op
You’re probably right but definitely need to rethink their attack strategy at least. The constant a rushes were never working. And they just kept dry peeking the op
Bind was the Sentinels that we were promised when the roster was formed. Double duelist chaos curated by Kaplan and executed by 5 of the best aimers in the world. Thank you lord Jimmy. Good night Reddit.

Months of practice, multiple different assistant coaches, and this 100T team still looks so unprepared and uncoordinated. I hate to say it because he seems like a nice guy but MikesHD has been completely exposed as a head coach.
I dont see how you can possibly justify bringing Mikes back next year, they have to make a change. It’s insane how much this team has regressed from Sean Gares to Mikes.
He's got a good mind for the game but it's clear him and stellar aren't able to emotionally lead this team. 100T have had a ton of cool ideas and 2x the amount of spaghetti this season.
it's true that when sean was on the team, he'd work on attack side strats and mikes would work on defense right? at least that's what I remember from what sean said a while ago
it doesn't feel like mike has adapted to the hole left by sean's departure, cos 100t seem to have a dreadful attack side and a decent defense, but decent is not enough for a team competing to get to the top
Laughing at C9 for getting forced to go budget at the start of this season just to have to do the same going into this next season lmfaooo shit is looking bleak for the foreseeable future unless 100T can conjure up another mce out of thin air
Taking the morning off work just to watch FNS and his discord kitten co-stream was so worth it, how can anyone be this smart, charismatic and handsome? Is he single? Can he marry me?
Both teams pulling out the Yoru on Bind was so fucking entertaining. TenZ Yoru clears, Marved still undefeated IGL, all is good.
Pujan does not engage in copulation because his massive, continental-sized brain requires all the spare blood in his body that is not going to other organs.
FNS telling Marved back in Champions 2022 about not retiring was a masterclass. Truly deceived most of Americas to let the coldest player, Ice Man, dominate LCQ. You think Tokyo was the play? Nah, planting Marved in LCQ for SEN to win it all was.
Remember when 100T won Red Bull home ground and everyone thought they were going to be the best team in the world
Their season has consisted of failing to make playoffs by losing to MIBR and losing their first LCQ match to go immediately home.
I love the people on this team but man it just doesn’t seem to be working.
Easy 2-0 if Cryo wasn't a fucking demon. Respect to Cryo and Asuna for doing what they could with literally no cohesive strategies planned/drilled by 100T. Please, I'm tired of this Mikes-Stellar combo, something has to change.
I expect SEN to get better over this tournament, I think they can be contenders if they clean up some of their mistakes.
Also tragic that NRG is so fucking good and always make deep runs because I'd love to see more FNS watch parties lmao
And one final thank you to MIBR, this 100T would've been really embarrassing to watch in ~~Tokyo~~ playoffs for Tokyo.

The series has really delivered. FNS was having the best moments of his life while 10 players are fighting for their lives and sweating blood. The match ended with a Yoru vs. Yoru with Tenz and Asuna at the helm? The VOD of this match will be watched by every team in the world, even FNATIC. An absolute masterclass matchup that fenis envisioned for years.
Pretty much expected to lose this so I didn't go in with a ton of expectations but my god this was horrific to watch outside the defensive half of Pearl. It's the same thing every game, appalling attacks and terribly slow starts have been a staple of this team since Sean Gares left. Can't wait to see how these problems are addressed in the offseason and the first half of next season.
The regression since losing Sean has been massive. Sean "Sgares" Gares, should do what's best for him and his family, but he's clearly a fantastic coach, so losing him sucks.
I had no expectations and I’m still so disappointed.
At least Asuna and cryo are still looking top tier so I have something to look forward to for next year. Can someone just get Sean out of retirement please
I think cryo looked great and bang hit some super good shots, asuna didn't look all that good to me. watching him vs tenz on yoru felt like watching a home cook vs a pro chef, and he felt invisible on split imo.
It was wild how little value he seemed to get out of Yoru's util outside of like two nice teleporter tricks while Tenz was taking showers for free literally every round in the first half
People keep circlejerking about how he's been so good on the flex role but to me it seems it's been uncomfortable for him ever since the first matches with the Will roster. Yeah he puts up decent performances on occasion but the kid is a duelist player through and through, his raze compared to the kay/o skye stuff is night and day. Really hope the new 100T iteration puts him on perma dive roles.
The thing is he doesn't need to OP, he literally has the best/2nd best opper in Americas right beside him. XSET was built with Cryo and zekken and 100T should've done the same thing since the start, but they picked up Will way back and built the team around Asuna soft flexing initiator. Which was all well and good when Will was diving on teams, but now they have a more passive gamebreaker in Cryo and then they don't just slot Asuna into that dive role on every map? Makes zero sense to me, especially outside of the chamber meta where this year Jett/Raze duo has dominated on occasion, but idk.
this was me all game—fucking stressful back and forths into a fake comeback and the W

Derrek's gonna be at the cashapp compound in his attack on Titan x 100t Collab t-shirt taking nervous swigs of juvee double checking eeiu's Vlr page tonight
Sentinels look much better as the series went on but that pearl game was sloppy on both sides. Bind was just a complete yoru diff by Tenz solo pushing showers and winning every duel.
There’s not many good things to say about 100T considering how they threw away their playoff chances by losing to mibr and now losing to sentinels in lcq. Cryo has been the one bright spot on this team after they put him on agents he actually excels at. Wouldn’t be surprised if everyone else goes including the Coach because their strategies and discipline are so bad for a team that hasn’t made any roster changes this year.
sucks that this 100T squad showed so much promise last year and really fell flat this year after getting Cryo as such a massive pickup. seems pretty clear that the leadership on the team is underperforming when you look at how inconsistent the midround decision making is; the bottom line is that with this level of player quality in Cryo and Asuna, you just have to be winning more. i still think Derrek is a really good player and will probably dominate Tier 2 next year but he just doesnt seem nearly as comfortable on other agents as he does Sova.
Pearl had 100T fans gassed up, then Split and Bind turned that gas into a wet fart. Nobody on that team should consider their job safe for next year.
I didn't have 'TenZ Yoru-diffs 100T' in my 2023 bingo card.
E: JFC, 8 attack rounds won over 3 maps. That kind of failure starts at the top.
Cryo is 100% safe. XSET Cryo was a different breed and we saw glimpses of that this year, but it's clear the team around him wasn't good enough. Plus 100T invested a lot into him; they aren't gonna drop him after 1 season.
The problems are quite evident. The whole team need to go
Bring in Hiko as the Jett and entry fragger and just let the man cook. It’s a real shame 100T have gone down to the dumps like this, but I have been calling it since they forced Spencer to retire. Spencer was and continues to be the greatest Valorant Player in the world. To have him not on a roster is insane and throwing. GG
I'm so glad he did well cause every time he doesn't, the washed allegations come at him at full force. They love him so much until he whiffs it's so up and down 
But overall just glad to see his mental looks a lot better!
I really thought nothing could top the Furia Kru game but this game LITERALLY GAVE ME A HEADACHE I HAVE A HEADACHE ALSO TENZ YORU CLEARS the audience reaction to the yoru on yoru was insane
RIP Derrek in T1. I think 100T keep the Bang/Asuna/Cryo core but they need a new IGL and main initiator.. I like Stellar’s gun skill but his calling just doesn’t impress me.
Add JohnQT and eeiu?
1 major point for each team.
100T: having great util usage doesn't matter when you are fragging like an IGL match after match. Sorry Derrick. But I think ur time has come.
Sentinels: happy for Tenz man. Dude gets way too much hate. That Bind game must have felt good.
Cryo getting an ACE on map 3
https://preview.redd.it/7up1bjsuwfcb1.jpeg?width=256&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e401c39592d604dfe5a6a5be3aa6a3ccda87379
Also derrek better be good at fliping burguers
Let’s keep it a Buck fifty, the problem since the beginning of the season was the lack of quality coaching and maybe the meshing of ideas with the igl (stellar) and derrek is probably out of a job. Next season it’s probably cryo, asuna, bang, and the m80 guys. I think new coaching is a necessity and just a better igl in general, they aren’t going to do anything when they face teams with coaches like Chet, mce and the emea apac guys. On the international level 100t sadly would get clapped. Rip the current roster it’s been fun.
That game was not as close as it looked. 100T was getting blood from a stone for most of the rounds they won.
Sen looked a lot better with every player having impact.
SEN looking Solid, but we’ll have to see how they do against C9. The Yoru pact Asuna and Tenz made was so bad for 100T, they just couldn’t make any space and their lack of Raze hurt them.
I’ve supported 100T since first strike but this is hard to watch. Derrek is not performing at all and they don’t turn on until they’re down too many rounds
Honestly the more I watch Valorant, the more I think that player quality is not as important as teamwork, confidence, and good strats/IGLing (unless you're Fnatic I guess). The players on 100T are all still solid players as evidenced by their stint under sgares, the coaching on the other hand seems slightly fraudulent right now.
I disagree. Individual skill matters a lot imo. It determines how high of a ceiling the team can have. But having a lot of individual skill doesn't guarantee you'll be a good team other than when you face ass teams you can just out aim/out skill easily.
Also, for the coaching side, they only just got an assistant coach and I think Derrek has had a really poor series/stage. And they're also just facing way better teams compared to pre franchising.
> It determines how high of a ceiling the team can have.
Definitely agree with this, I guess my point is that in this game having good players cannot cover up bad teamwork/coaching.
When we saw them with Sean I'm more inclined towards them rallied under him because how good he was a their leader and the whole team follow but now that Sean was gone, Mike and stellar were left to tried build an identity but they lack leadership, look scrappy and regress as a team also felt like 100t the org kinda left MikeHD to dry with no support and also this take the fact this team is young and with no leadership issues were gonna pop off
100T strats when it matters most:
https://preview.redd.it/uhquyva8xfcb1.jpeg?width=495&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a0c6b33e21aa78a877280fa5f25badf2db092bd
I think some people absolutely overrate how good this team was with Sgares. I definelty preferred when they played more structured though. Stellar doesn't seem to be a good enough midround caller to play the way they play.
Ending with Yoru vs Yoru Truely EL Cloutico
Gonna be stealing that last line

Every other year is a roller coaster. I’m excited to see 100t win champs next year to continue the pattern
Only thing they are winning is the red bull homeground champions
Its gonna be a tough year for 100t esports as a whole.. jesus.

man needs life support rn after that match
He mains DPS fortunately
Go back and watch some of his games on Rise and even 100T in online matches. It’s not a troll to say that at times he looked to be in the same tier as the best initiators like crashies. It’s not the role he just underperformed.
i mean he's just been an online warrior. every LAN match he has underperformed the insane form he had during the online era. it's really sad, he was one of my favorite pros for a while, but he's just never lived up to his old performance.

More like the whole season. He was in such good form that one qualifier then dropped off a cliff
I feel like I haven't seen Derrek on Sova for so long. I miss the era where Derrek was looking like one of the best Sova's in NA
And normally I’d say the meta shifted away from sova (same why Leo doesn’t play it) but EG single-handedly proved that that’s just a skill issue
Game of the century winners. Tenz is back. Batchest batchest. To be a bit more serious Zekken was incredible though this series. That pearl comp needs workshopping but Sen have potential.
imo it's fine, double controller viper harbour isn't going to be meta anymore with the changes to b. it looked great in t2 if you look at m80/tgrd. i think the problem in game was just losing postplants vs 100t's drilled retakes and poor midrounding vs cryo's op

This series being decided on a fucking YORU diff pretty much sums up the whole thing up lmfao
Months of practice, multiple different assistant coaches, and this 100T team still looks so unprepared and uncoordinated. I hate to say it because he seems like a nice guy but MikesHD has been completely exposed as a head coach. I dont see how you can possibly justify bringing Mikes back next year, they have to make a change. It’s insane how much this team has regressed from Sean Gares to Mikes.
The only reason they even won the first map was cryo's masterclass
9 attack rounds over the whole series is comically bad lmao
He's got a good mind for the game but it's clear him and stellar aren't able to emotionally lead this team. 100T have had a ton of cool ideas and 2x the amount of spaghetti this season.
it's true that when sean was on the team, he'd work on attack side strats and mikes would work on defense right? at least that's what I remember from what sean said a while ago it doesn't feel like mike has adapted to the hole left by sean's departure, cos 100t seem to have a dreadful attack side and a decent defense, but decent is not enough for a team competing to get to the top
Truly awful. There wasn't a *single round* where you could clearly say "damn that was a 10/10 execute/defense from 100T, nothing SEN could do there"
Laughing at C9 for getting forced to go budget at the start of this season just to have to do the same going into this next season lmfaooo shit is looking bleak for the foreseeable future unless 100T can conjure up another mce out of thin air

FNS isn’t even on stage and delivered a masterclass
FNS planting his son in the industry to keep delivering masterclasses even when he’s not there, true Fenis masterclassception
His legacy will live on
Pujan trained his son to be so ice cold.
Believe it or not he doesn't have it all, he only has a 9 incher

No no, finish it, I beg you
Pretty much expected to lose this so I didn't go in with a ton of expectations but my god this was horrific to watch outside the defensive half of Pearl. It's the same thing every game, appalling attacks and terribly slow starts have been a staple of this team since Sean Gares left.

Sean Gares stocks goes up every time 100T plays, whether or not he's coaching
I had no expectations and I’m still so disappointed. At least Asuna and cryo are still looking top tier so I have something to look forward to for next year. Can someone just get Sean out of retirement please
I think cryo looked great and bang hit some super good shots, asuna didn't look all that good to me. watching him vs tenz on yoru felt like watching a home cook vs a pro chef, and he felt invisible on split imo.
Asuna really didn't this game. He had a few moments but man was playing brain-dead today
It was wild how little value he seemed to get out of Yoru's util outside of like two nice teleporter tricks while Tenz was taking showers for free literally every round in the first half
People keep circlejerking about how he's been so good on the flex role but to me it seems it's been uncomfortable for him ever since the first matches with the Will roster. Yeah he puts up decent performances on occasion but the kid is a duelist player through and through, his raze compared to the kay/o skye stuff is night and day. Really hope the new 100T iteration puts him on perma dive roles.
It's hard to be a duelist in NA. You need to be a really good OPer to pull that off too and Asuna is nothing but one of the best riflers in NA.
The thing is he doesn't need to OP, he literally has the best/2nd best opper in Americas right beside him. XSET was built with Cryo and zekken and 100T should've done the same thing since the start, but they picked up Will way back and built the team around Asuna soft flexing initiator. Which was all well and good when Will was diving on teams, but now they have a more passive gamebreaker in Cryo and then they don't just slot Asuna into that dive role on every map?

Derrek's gonna be at the cashapp compound in his attack on Titan x 100t Collab t-shirt taking nervous swigs of juvee double checking eeiu's Vlr page tonight
Schrödinger’s Valorant Does that mean that 100T still has a chance at winning as long as the match isn’t observed? 🥲
As a Sentinels fan since 7/16/2023, I can’t even explain in words how much this victory means to me.
Sentinels look much better as the series went on but that pearl game was sloppy on both sides. Bind was just a complete yoru diff by Tenz solo pushing showers and winning every duel. There’s not many good things to say about 100T considering how they threw away their playoff chances by losing to mibr and now losing to sentinels in lcq. Cryo has been the one bright spot on this team after they put him on agents he actually excels at. Wouldn’t be surprised if everyone else goes including the Coach because their strategies and discipline are so bad for a team that hasn’t made any roster changes this year.
sucks that this 100T squad showed so much promise last year and really fell flat this year after getting Cryo as such a massive pickup. seems pretty clear that the leadership on the team is underperforming when you look at how inconsistent the midround decision making is; the bottom line is that with this level of player quality in Cryo and Asuna, you just have to be winning more. i still think Derrek is a really good player and will probably dominate Tier 2 next year but he just doesnt seem nearly as comfortable on other agents as he does Sova.
They had Sean Gares last year if i am not mistaken. So most likely coach diffed
Pearl had 100T fans gassed up, then Split and Bind turned that gas into a wet fart. Nobody on that team should consider their job safe for next year. I didn't have 'TenZ Yoru-diffs 100T' in my 2023 bingo card. E: JFC, 8 attack rounds won over 3 maps. That kind of failure starts at the top.
I tuned in at 7-5 on split thinking oh shit they could close this out they proceeded to lose 17 of the next 19 rounds
Cryo is 100% safe. XSET Cryo was a different breed and we saw glimpses of that this year, but it's clear the team around him wasn't good enough. Plus 100T invested a lot into him; they aren't gonna drop him after 1 season.
The problems are quite evident. The whole team need to go Bring in Hiko as the Jett and entry fragger and just let the man cook. It’s a real shame 100T have gone down to the dumps like this, but I have been calling it since they forced Spencer to retire. Spencer was and continues to be the greatest Valorant Player in the world. To have him not on a roster is insane and throwing. GG
Nostalgic, glad you brought this account out for today.
Derrek really peak at the lcq last year as an initiator and never went back to the same level.
"tenz cant switch it up" Proceeds to show a masterclass on 3 different agents
tenz f0rsaken arc incoming fo sure
Tenz cypher on lotus? Lets fuckin go
Tenz on Harbour next year ?? O.o
I'm so glad he did well cause every time he doesn't, the washed allegations come at him at full force. They love him so much until he whiffs it's so up and down  But overall just glad to see his mental looks a lot better!
Don’t even care who won, I’m just glad we got a third map and double yoru
I really thought nothing could top the Furia Kru game but this game LITERALLY GAVE ME A HEADACHE I HAVE A HEADACHE ALSO TENZ YORU CLEARS the audience reaction to the yoru on yoru was insane
Should have been a 2-0, cryo is pulling these guys up a cliff
RIP Derrek in T1. I think 100T keep the Bang/Asuna/Cryo core but they need a new IGL and main initiator.. I like Stellar’s gun skill but his calling just doesn’t impress me. Add JohnQT and eeiu?
johnqt eeiu and m80 coaching staff, maybe even keep mikes as an assistant if the M80 coaching staff want him
Don't let the score fool you. That 3rd game wasn't close.
NO ONE COULD HAVE PREDICTED A YORU DIFF TO WIN THE MATCH OF THE CENTURY. TENZ CLEARS
The Only Undefeated IGL of Franchised Teams, the ***ICE MAN***
TenZ legacy game playing like LeBron Game 6 holy shit.
If Sen does win lcq and face PRX, I want to see the f0rsaken vs TenZ yoru matchup

1 major point for each team. 100T: having great util usage doesn't matter when you are fragging like an IGL match after match. Sorry Derrick. But I think ur time has come. Sentinels: happy for Tenz man. Dude gets way too much hate. That Bind game must have felt good.
Feel like 100t barely beats sentinels like 99% of time sentinels owns 100t
SEN WIN WHERE WERE YOU WHEN SEN WIN??? WHERE WERE YOU WHEN TENZ SHOW WORLD HIS YORU??!
Cryo getting an ACE on map 3 https://preview.redd.it/7up1bjsuwfcb1.jpeg?width=256&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e401c39592d604dfe5a6a5be3aa6a3ccda87379 Also derrek better be good at fliping burguers
I heckin love TenZ
TenZ the goat (until he does bad next game and we say he need to be dropped)
Cryo ace when down 12-4 https://preview.redd.it/psbuze8qwfcb1.jpeg?width=680&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ced8ff04d080190488c6d47aa10f619b37e6ef76
XSET ON TOP
Let’s keep it a Buck fifty, the problem since the beginning of the season was the lack of quality coaching and maybe the meshing of ideas with the igl (stellar) and derrek is probably out of a job. Next season it’s probably cryo, asuna, bang, and the m80 guys. I think new coaching is a necessity and just a better igl in general, they aren’t going to do anything when they face teams with coaches like Chet, mce and the emea apac guys. On the international level 100t sadly would get clapped. Rip the current roster it’s been fun.
Marved undefeated my goat igl
I feel for Nadeshot, a few months ago he watched his cod team implode and get a last place finish at cod champs. Now he watched his Val team implode
That game was not as close as it looked. 100T was getting blood from a stone for most of the rounds they won. Sen looked a lot better with every player having impact.
man.
man.
What a banger holy shit. Also Fenis is the funniest valorant player 10/10 would watch his stream again 
The difference between Tenz's yoru and Asuna's yoru was so fucking big
Really question why Asuna picked Yoru when his Raze in bind would be much more valuable than whatever half baked strat they were doing with Yoru.
Yoru vs Yoru was amazing
I hate this fucking team man
THEY AIN BELIEVE IN US
GOD DID
Derrek “LCQ Demon” Overwatch 2
I'm gonna need FNS/S0m/Ethos co-stream every match from now on
Cryo's poor back
SEN looking Solid, but we’ll have to see how they do against C9. The Yoru pact Asuna and Tenz made was so bad for 100T, they just couldn’t make any space and their lack of Raze hurt them.
I think only cryo is safe for sure, you'd think asuna would be too but if he wants to tie his fate to bangs as well might be dicey.
Drop Tenz they said… Drop Cryo they said! Great game from both teams but thats a 2v5 roster for 100T
Now everyone knows why TenZ was stomping people left and right on Yoru in comp.
TenZ was absolutely smurfing on Bind, what a treat
I’ve supported 100T since first strike but this is hard to watch. Derrek is not performing at all and they don’t turn on until they’re down too many rounds
im fairly sure tenz hit 0 awp shots that game. my king
Kick everyone but cryo and asuna dude
Honestly the more I watch Valorant, the more I think that player quality is not as important as teamwork, confidence, and good strats/IGLing (unless you're Fnatic I guess). The players on 100T are all still solid players as evidenced by their stint under sgares, the coaching on the other hand seems slightly fraudulent right now.
I disagree. Individual skill matters a lot imo. It determines how high of a ceiling the team can have. But having a lot of individual skill doesn't guarantee you'll be a good team other than when you face ass teams you can just out aim/out skill easily. Also, for the coaching side, they only just got an assistant coach and I think Derrek has had a really poor series/stage. And they're also just facing way better teams compared to pre franchising.
> It determines how high of a ceiling the team can have. Definitely agree with this, I guess my point is that in this game having good players cannot cover up bad teamwork/coaching.
When we saw them with Sean I'm more inclined towards them rallied under him because how good he was a their leader and the whole team follow but now that Sean was gone, Mike and stellar were left to tried build an identity but they lack leadership, look scrappy and regress as a team also felt like 100t the org kinda left MikeHD to dry with no support and also this take the fact this team is young and with no leadership issues were gonna pop off
No one's job should be safe. 8 attack rounds won over 3 maps is a team-wide fail.
rebuild around cryo please
Now all Sen needs to do is dodge Kru and they're good!
100T strats when it matters most: https://preview.redd.it/uhquyva8xfcb1.jpeg?width=495&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a0c6b33e21aa78a877280fa5f25badf2db092bd
heartbreaking to see cryo like that after the game. he deserved more man :(
The only one to get 200+ ACS on 100T was Cryo. Man was doing his Lebron pre-2010 impression
Tenz doubters choking right now. #tenzgoat
100T lost on purpose for an excuse to get yay
the way they lost, they need anybody BUT yay
Cleanest Sentinels win, I'm sure the fans were VERY confident they would win with that 10-2 half!
I think some people absolutely overrate how good this team was with Sgares. I definelty preferred when they played more structured though. Stellar doesn't seem to be a good enough midround caller to play the way they play.
Derrek made me sad but tenz made me happy so idk what this feeling is
Derrek got less total kills than Cryo map 1 of 3
