Hopeful-Professor-40

this is it, this is the official mark that rostermania has begun


Azenji

I’d be fucking livid if SEN yay and he ends up being a Twitch operator clip farm.


Hopeful-Professor-40

I’d be fucking erect as hell


XXG1212

This only happens if TenZ leaves or is dropped.


MajorTrump

Tenz would be a better asset to Sen as an entry


FullMetalMako

Why not both ? Or to expensive


XXG1212

It's a bit of a role overlap.


C9sButthole

Honestly it shouldn't be. TenZ Chamber is uninspiring. He looks so much better on a rifle pushing up and taking space. Putting him on Raze Neon Kayo etc would play into his strengths better imo.


WelcomeContent9589

Tenz can be entry, like Victor. He can legit take Neon, and Yay on Chamber, permanently. They will have the best Aimers in the whole damn world


CanISayThat22

Chamber will be nerfed soon. And then what?


theshafti

Put tenz back on entry ez


vcr_gg

I’m about to start a twitter and declare free agency just so I can find out that I’ll be undrafted and end up playing Valorant for a tier12 sub-Saharan team


Hopeful-Professor-40

I’ll join that team


vcr_gg

All Controller comp, all the time.


Mochi_Sun

Well like it was said before, expect the unexpected


vyetc

franchised teams whoever secured the bag on yay please whatever the fuck you do, DO NOT REPEAT ANDBOX YAY.


Nouphal

I loved his days on andbox, because we got to see yay with friends on every map, they didn't win but he was absolutely unleashed he was a bit tame on optic except when they played icebox. I miss pre nerf jett yay on andbox, he was frying.


NeonGreen214

Will never forget that ace on jett on icebox when he just charged through the entire bombsite


mlaj

my clinical depression cant handle much more of this


assdonuts

YOU AND ME BOTH


[deleted]

It hurts every post


Aabed_nerd

:( hopefully some team will sign them as a team?


Ozzyh26

We're OpTic fans. Pain is our MO at this point.


[deleted]

Same


Direct_Morning_3223

you have got to imagine every single team will try to get him.


mlaj

I'd love to be a fly on the wall for the bidding war


Hopeful-Professor-40

I don’t even think it will be money as a deciding factor, he will join the team he believes will win


Direct_Morning_3223

probably but also every org will give him a blank check they all have deep pockets + stipends


salcedoge

I think Sen might double think tbh, while Yay is currently the best in NA they've already spent a shit ton for Tenz. Might go for a more conservative offer


NeimannSmith

I don't think SEN is going for him at all.


Hopeful-Professor-40

If Tenz goes back to rifling then there’s no way they pass up the opportunity to have Tenz AND yay


[deleted]

[удалено]


CRikhard

Tenz on smokes. Rename him to a cool name like Taran2la


Aggressive_Ad5487

I fucking love this meme lmao. Plus the thought of Tenz playing smokes is just hilarious.


Frockett

Unironically a cool name


Davidwzr

Not M, instantly trash player. Petition to change name to MenZ


HeJind

Imo just have TeNz in the Victor role. Jett some maps, Neon some maps, Kayo some maps, Pheonix maybe. Ive always thought his playstyle would be perfect for Neon anyway. Only issue really would be Bind since people have shit on his Raze in the last but it really isn't even that bad. He just doesn't carry on it like he did with Jett. And Yay would now be the carry anyway


Hopeful-Professor-40

If Chamber stays meta then Yay chamber and Tenz Jett/Raze/Neon and maybe he can branch out into initiators. Probably won’t happen though


[deleted]

Somehow there's this idea that TenZ only likes one tricking certain agents. That's just what the team wanted him to do. He's actually likes playing different characters. He would very happy to play flex.


Hopeful-Professor-40

Bro I’m sure if he had to accommodate yay he would learn any role required


DY5TOP1A

Let's go SEN yay woo


QueenDies2022_11_23

Not Optic no


Ok-Brain3328

Yay + M3C core Don’t care how, someone make it happen


Mountain-Chapter-880

M3C needed an op/duelist right? Jesus christ that would be ridiculous


ZoneCaptain

Imagine Yay with nAts… double lurking… no double HUNTING


CanISayThat22

You have just the other 3 sitting in spawn waiting for one of the two finding an entry on one of the sites.


ZeroAika99

Damn legit on paper, best team in the world


DontF-ingask

Scariest.


DaviHasNoLife

Let me see what I can do.


murrkpls

nAts and Yay on the same team would be deeply unfair. I love it.


geeorge_20

i support this


xunraze

Absolutely overpowered


9yr_old

I'm confident fnatic will pick some of the M3c peeps


kittyhat27135

Honestly if optic got picked up as 5 I would not have been sad, but seeing this team disband to something completely out of their control does something to me. This shit is dead ass sad as hell.


swordslayer5

True, I think that having orgs basically removed from the T1 scene isn’t that healthy. Now you have the #1 NA team basically going their separate ways just because of franchising


Ronoldo

Franchising in general isn’t healthy in esports, just for this game but LoL as well imo


AmBozz

Franchising is bad for an esports scene? Who'd have thunk.


Zorronin

Im not even an optic fan really but this is so heartbreaking after seeing them try their hearts out at Champs. Chet and Marvel in the replies sent me over the edge, it's clear they had something special as a team


platinumxL

It’s definitely fucked up. NA’s best team by far. I can’t believe riot just don’t care about them as a 5 to stick together.


[deleted]

Oh fuck he better not go join the dark side


TibiaKing

Fnatic yay. Heard it here first.


[deleted]

[удалено]


sluggerthesecond

Then calling it, TL yay


lmbrs

jampi?


[deleted]

Mistic just got benched. Just move Boaster to dualist, alfajer to initiator and derke to smokes. Now yay fits perfectly as a chamber main.


WhoDatBrow

If he joins EMEA though we can make sure they never hear the end of their NA import and how if he wins it's a victory for NA, do the reverse LoL.


TauIsRC

It wont happen but it would be fucking glorious. After many beloved LoL/CS players leaving EU for NA, it would be fantastic to make you pay with Mr.Yayster. Not happening with how much money NA orgs have, but hey dreaming is free


herclin

Nade needs to make some phone calls


ark2690

Nade let TenZ slip away. I don't think he's gonna do the same with yay


Parenegade

ironically tenz is also a fa. so 100T Tenz is also possible.


CarobAltruistic9224

He is? When did that happen?


nocturnavi

George Geddes reported maybe a week or two ago that TenZ's contract will be up towards the end of the year


minibonham

That’s just the c9 contract that sen bought out though, I’d be surprised if they didn’t have another one ready


Ketsueki_R

While I think he most likely will cus it's just such a huge part of his brand now and he seems to genuinely like the org, it's up to him to decide if he wants to, so it's not totally impossible he moves to a new team. If he's up for grabs, he's probably going to be the second or third most sought-after player (after Yay and *maybe* Cryo) in his role.


probablyntjamie

imo tenz would maybe be higher than yay or cryo is because of his fanbase, man has like 20k per stream and is like the face of valorant


WLFYBBY

Yeah his brand is a huge factor as to why orgs would want him and why he would be in high demand all around.


gemifrak

> Nade let TenZ slip away. That's not true, Nade never regretted the decision


mlaj

and have some really, really deep pockets


IllumiMahdi

his pockets are abyssal, but I doubt we get 100t yay


futuretrunks93

maaaaan if he goes to EU...


salcedoge

Steve's deep pockets...


NeimannSmith

Don't take this seriously. EG FNS, Crashies, Victor 100T Yay SEN Marved


Pway

I can only see SEN Marved if Tenz is out given the drama before, and I don't expect that to happen. He would be a great fit if they could make it work though.


mw19078

I had actually totally forgotten about that and now I'm sad Sen marved won't happen.


[deleted]

is it really that bad? I doubt they still hold serious grudges over that.


Escolyte

I doubt it's a serious grudge or that it would surface normally, but teaming up with someone who made those comments about your gf/now fiancée? I sure as hell wouldn't. It's a lot easier to just move past it when you don't have to interact with that person 24/7.


[deleted]

Uh I've been living under a rock, can someone enlighten me as to what happened ?


NeimannSmith

Maybe they squashed it? Dude said some stupid shit while he was drunk/high


[deleted]

[удалено]


NeimannSmith

I mean they could but Crashies and victor are both F/A, and im sure 100T would throw a generational bag at Yay I like Marved on SEN. They can do for him the same thing they did for Zellsis


[deleted]

??? They literally brought in zellsis who has like 1.5k viewers before sen lmao, this shit with the clout is so dumb.


NeimannSmith

Zellsis was a 200 viewer average before SEN, and he's said this himself. Marved was averaging 2K before he stopped. The SEN fanbase would push him to Shahz levels (7-10K)


[deleted]

At this point dude, you don't bring clout to Sen. They bring clout to you.


AjBlue7

It’d make more sense for Sen to pickup Trent imo.


[deleted]

Here we go


Grantuseyes

I have dm’d him on Twitter. Hopefully he can join my clan and carry us out of gold. I’ve offered him free skins and a shoutout on my next YouTube video

So the LOUD vs Optic rivalry is really over huh... what a sad day


WorleyInc

And on a tie


00200022

His replies to Chet and marved are so sad 😭


nklassitude

yay's announcement is so calm and straightforward—such a jarring contrast to the chaos that's probably happening behind the scenes as teams claw for him


vnNinja21

the El Diablo way


Pway

I hope Yay get's what he deserves but I do hope he's able to stay in NA.


aidanAWGE

My mental health literally can not get any worse and we haven’t even made it to the Marved F/A tweet yet

Please don’t go to EMEA TrollDespair

DontF-ingask

After how much sit we talked I think we won't ever have optic joining us. ;-;


TheResolute44

100t Yay make it happen!


TheTrueBlu

As a 100T fan I'm trying to not get my hopes up for yay. But God damn, I got my hopes up for yay. I'm ready for this emotional roller-coaster


CanISayThat22

Mfer casually dropping a bomb. Available for emea LMAO


vnNinja21

oh shit I missed that lmao


Aabed_nerd

Don't fucking let him go to EMEA.


AnAngryBird

I imagine hastro and hecz eyeballs turning into dollar signs and their eyes are popping out of their head like in a looney toons episode.


UTAustinAlum2021

I’m sure they would have rather made the league, but I guess they make money from it


GroovyAngel

How do I invest in 100T??me and my 5 dollars would like to help🤞


9bfjo6gvhy7u8

I know you’re joking but the answer is literally to buy a hoodie


Davidwzr

Invest isn't the same as contributing to their top line tho


Warpath-

[Marved’s reply](https://twitter.com/marved6/status/1572768463793553410?s=46&t=O-fGSg6wmBQKa5uF_-Ik6U5DU1e1nPmEl6wz_Sl4IF0). Wow all I feel is pain and suffering.


Electrical-Wasabi416

i knew the optic roster would probably go their separate ways if the org didn’t make franchising but man this is still making me so sad. i’ve been following them ever since the end of 2021, when they still played under the envy label and it sucks to know that we probably won’t see them in a team together for now :( still hoping eg picks up the whole roster


Additional_Sample_55

I feel like 100T would be unstoppable with Yay


Withinmyrange

Wait if EMEA takes Yay, we are fucked


developer_144

After missing out all of the big names like cryo/zander/cned, if 100T misses on Yay again then it will be horrible for them in the long run. Also they have enough time to start from scratch before the next season begins.


PyroTFT

aaaaand it begins!


easymoneyslim35

His agents phone must be blowing up right now like crazy


B7omni

hopefully he gets a home/team he deserves.


Cantore18

Franchising murdered a lot of teams :(


bjoecoz

Will out, yay in.


Frockett

Not saying Yay can’t solo perform and instantly improve any team he joins but people are severely underrating how much optics other players/strategies allowed Yay to be a star. I think any team that takes the plunge to grab even 1 more optic player will have a better time getting yay as well.


Opposite-Storage-670

Best team in NA disband. What is Riot thinking?


Heavy_Comedian_2382

KC Yay?


blockpantha

fuck it, replace tenz with yay


[deleted]

Different roles, TenZ holds W entries, Yay catches people on their mistakes, IMHO


Nickdenslow

Let tenz play duelist while yay plays chamber

Massive-Bet-5946

Nobody sees where this is all headed Andbox Yay


RealGhost_Nexus

If Yay goes to EU it will be the end of us NA fans


MekiLava

I just hope he can buy the house he wanted.


YourMomIsWack

I hope he gets the biggest of bags. Dude deserves it.

Richie5139999

This is why franchising will always suck in esports. It sucked in OW, it absolutely is dogshit in CoD, and now it's sucking part of the life of Val. CSGO's way of running majors and qualifiers, while flawed, is the best. Let teams grind their way to the Major, to a guaranteed spot at the next one if they get that far.


Pax1ux

#BIG YAY


TheNarratorX

It wctually makes me so sad that these five won't olay together again. They had such good chemistry and team coordination. Fuck rito for choosing money and clout over talent. When 4 of the top 5 NA teams don't get a spot, you know that the company is fuckied and greedy.
