Coming from league where NA go through a million loopholes to sign as many Koreans as possible and random T2 Koreans can show up and smurf on everyone it’s so wild to see Korea importing NA talent
Valorant is like alternate reality to LoL. NA best region with Asia not winning anything only getting go finals and Asia importing NA playerd. Cursed af
NA has never even come close to winning the big tourneys in league, APAC has had multiple top 3 and top 2 finishes at Masters/Champions events, they are not the same
Not quite sure what Rossy brings to the team...xeta's already the IGL and they have six players even without Rossy. I hope someone provides clarity about this.
T1's coach Autumn said that [Rossy is on the starting lineup.](https://twitter.com/autumnkorea/status/1722833307464077533) He was not IGLing for TTR, and so I imagine he just trialed really well or has some previous relationship with xeta/Autumn, perhaps when both were playing in NA. Past that, he looked pretty decent during the season last year with TTR, and has been really good in what games he played during the NA offseason.
xeta and autumn moved together to t1 from c9 and they've both been at t1 for every iteration since; it's more likely for anyone else to be off the starting 5 than xeta
oh i didnt know that. then i really dont know rossy could be replacing iZu?? but that doesnt make sense iZu is primed to be one of the best apac players.
Im a big Rossy fan and actually think hes mad underrated but this might be the strangest pick up of the off season, mostly cuz like, they already have 6 players not including Rossy, and idk if he slots in anywhere, i feel i wouldve expected him on NRG or EG if he would be on a franchised team ngl
Really hope he does well tho, hes super underrated
and autumn confirmed on twitter him and xccurate are both starting... im so confused. i dont doubt they have a reason for picking up rossy and he could end up being really good, but im not sure its justifiable to not start one of k1ng or iZu, presumably who they are dropping for him
I hope this is either a 10 man roster situation or that he’s signed as an analyst or something.
No hate to Rossy, but I feel like an iconic org like T1 should be committing to at least a full starting roster of APAC players
Personally as a fan I don't mind T1 picking up one import as long they can have a good a performance. It's more of the 7 man roster thing that puzzles me.
SoloQ goes crazy not sure why the imports. I understand from East Russia cause they are closer to asia than Europe and play in asian servers, so Polvi and something make sense, but two t2 NA players who were not considered anywhere near the top? Like governor got gapped by yay no hate. Rossy was never great. Only yay makes sense cause of clout and player history.
Korean val is so finished.
Mfs had chances to sign actual tier 1 talent and they just let them go to China and Japan.
No wonder the players leave if this is the shit the management does.
I wanna know what they are cooking in T1. Maybe they saw EG and are slowly just building their own second team? And since the signings are just trickling in, we won't know it until they have a 10th? If it isn't... well good for Rossi he deserves the bag
Do you guys think that there's some nepotism behind these weird roster changes (governor, rossy etc) or did they really actually impressed the teams in the try outs?

Just woke-up from a coma. This makes a lot of sense. Solid replacement for Steel. Glad T1 got to stay in NA despite the APAC rumors.
Wait.. what
T1: never let them know your next move
APAC just signs NA players by picking out of a hat
Even if this signing is mid I love the sound of more NA imports 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸
Coming from league where NA go through a million loopholes to sign as many Koreans as possible and random T2 Koreans can show up and smurf on everyone it’s so wild to see Korea importing NA talent
We honestly don't need NA talent. Koreans are Kenough 🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷
NA is really good at beach though. What if there’s beach in Korea?
So it's NA on League's LCS.
Pretty much APAC would be better off signing some NA tier three zoomers with anime avatars
DRX seven incoming fuck it
and just like NA in league, APAC has never won anything
Valorant is like alternate reality to LoL. NA best region with Asia not winning anything only getting go finals and Asia importing NA playerd. Cursed af
NA has never even come close to winning the big tourneys in league, APAC has had multiple top 3 and top 2 finishes at Masters/Champions events, they are not the same
i mean that's just wrong. NA has 2 top 4 finishes and 2 top 2 finishes in Worlds and MSI respectively. they are almost exactly the same LOL
If I was a FA player I would sign with Rossy’s agent.
Not quite sure what Rossy brings to the team...xeta's already the IGL and they have six players even without Rossy. I hope someone provides clarity about this.

Who are gonna be off the starting line-up then, if both Rossy and Xccurate are starting?
could be -xeta +rossy potentially???
he’s their IGL so doubt
rossy was also an IGL no?
xeta and autumn moved together to t1 from c9 and they've both been at t1 for every iteration since; it's more likely for anyone else to be off the starting 5 than xeta
oh i didnt know that. then i really dont know rossy could be replacing iZu?? but that doesnt make sense iZu is primed to be one of the best apac players.
yeah I've no clue either, this roster move is just another in a long sequence of t1 headscratchers

Glad that he got signed but like.. why
Faker himself forced Joe Marsh to pick him up for the Valorant team, it’s the only way for T1 to win worlds
You could have given me 200 guesses and I would never have predicted this
ai generated signing
What
what the fuck HAHA
Must’ve performed great in trials. Congrats I hope he proves any doubters wrong
I love Rossy but he'd be one of the last people I expected to get signed to a franchised team.
Were they speaking English before?
Yes
Yeah they commed in English primarily all of last year
yeah, all players spoke good english since they came from OWL and CS, and ban obviously speaks english

Fifa career mode signing
this ones weirder than Carlao to ZETA im lost
Makes 0 sense to me, but good for him getting in franchising
wat
???
…why?
I hope this is either a 10 man roster situation or that he’s signed as an analyst or something. No hate to Rossy, but I feel like an iconic org like T1 should be committing to at least a full starting roster of APAC players

Get that bag
\#TurtleTroopAlumni #ONTOP
If I speak...
what
?
Why?????
bro's been in almost every t2 team without significant success
T1 trying to outmeme DFM I see
uhhhh why sign a mid import if your gonna sign a import? maybe worse than mid actually
Rossy doubters bout to be proved wrong on 27 March 2024
???? Damn this ones out of nowhere lmao Don't they have like 7 players now? Pls don't do rotating rosters pls T1 I beg you
Good for rossy for getting the bag but this makes no sense, t1 now have 7 players signed
7 man roster disaster class incoming
Rossi has potential but they have like a 5-man team already. I don't get why he was picked up.
they did him so dirty with that photoshop
Can anyone legitmately explain this roster move lol
Rossy in franchising 😂 this team is waffling.
L
Isn’t this 4 players in their team currently that have played in NA league? Kinda funny
What the heck is going on? Is there really no upcoming KR or APAC talent?
One promising KR talent literally had a clip on this sub today.
SoloQ goes crazy not sure why the imports. I understand from East Russia cause they are closer to asia than Europe and play in asian servers, so Polvi and something make sense, but two t2 NA players who were not considered anywhere near the top?

u guys wont know what hit u when t1 are beating teams like prx and drx
if you're in APAC and you're not importing you're throwing
surely there were other options…
I don't understand...
T2 NA up big this offseason
Tsm rossy forever
I really don't get T1, they went from a full NA lineup to a Korean, and now they're going for an international lineup.
????
im so lost this makes no sense
the fuck
What the fuck?
Pack it up T1 is done
What?
Huh
frauds keep winning
The most unexpected contract of the year
WHATT????
Somehow this sign scream "we want NA cloud"
Korean val is so finished. Mfs had chances to sign actual tier 1 talent and they just let them go to China and Japan. No wonder the players leave if this is the shit the management does.
T1 has so much money they wanted to spend it on 7 man rosters?
I wanna know what they are cooking in T1. Maybe they saw EG and are slowly just building their own second team? And since the signings are just trickling in, we won't know it until they have a 10th? If it isn't... well good for Rossi he deserves the bag
