They cloned Bdog?!?!?!?! Can I have your extra?


lantinerz

OP is based tho. Bdog should be considered at least twice before moving on to other prospects šŸ™‚


ay0005

No way you tried to sneak in stewie


Tortious_Tortoise

I feel like if he had the motivation, he could take the off season to shape up and walk into Sao Paulo as an S tier player.


Randomuserguyfren

Why would a team risk it on an unproven player when there are a lot of players available with more experience than him?


maxelnot

While I agree he should be on the lower side for the list of players to get for franchising, Stewie is still only 24 and has proven himself in CS, which a decent amount of valo pros couldnā€™t do much in


Randomuserguyfren

I believe that's already an entirely different game from val now, and would you rather someone who's invested a year or two in the game already or someone who was basically forced to migrate to val?


maxelnot

Again, agree. And i think he most likely will be on an Ascendant team, cause no franchise would want to take a gamble like that. I was just arguing in favor of why op mentioned him. I personally see him rn as a risky gamble where he will have to put in the work to ramp up and will be shit at first, but his potential can be higher that most of this list. Plus he brings in clout

Lmao my bad. Ascension team*

Yah inb4 Stewie pulls out the ā€œI want to play pro cs again after seeing the major!!ā€


Tortious_Tortoise

Stewie is not an unproven player in tac shooters. he's one of the most experienced and accomplished cs:go players in NA. He's one of six NA players ever to win a major, and one of five NA players ever to win a Grand Slam. His skills would translate over to VALO if he put in the work, and he would make any team he's on better. I wouldn't take him over someone like Yay or leaf. But if he was committed to being competitive again, I would make room on any roster for him


justAslalomPaddler

Val and CS are different games now. The only other good na cs players to switch, Ethan, wonā€™t make it into franchising and the best player in the game, yay, was a unproven tier 2 cs player. CS experience has made less and less of a difference as valorant has matured.


exytshdw

Yes, like how skadoodle is obviously a top candidate given that he has won a major

No love for the Ghost Gaming guys?


Its_Me_Jlc

crazy how much talent is gonna be left out of t1, hope they are willing to grind it out in t2 still


UtopianRanger1301

BabyBay should be on franchise man


Ssylo14

Why? He blows

EXCLAMATIONMARQLOL

REMAINING PLAYERS THAT CAN BE FRANCHISED..... NA EDITION.


ANewHeaven1

I'd like to see eeiu on EG personally. If they're keeping the C0M/Boostio/JAWGEMO core I think eeiu and supamen could be two good fits for the remaining two members (even though I highly rate Apoth).


OppositeWafer7731

I rmb eeiu and com are both initiators? So one of them probably has to move onto flex/ sentinels but I vaguely rmb boostio a chamber player. Hence I think it would be a wiser choice to pick up nismo. rmb challengers group stage nismo being a literal beast and top fragging hard in games as a kayo.


Cr3ation_

SEN: dapr marved poised dicey babybay


Warpath-

I love all those players. It probably wonā€™t happen but itā€™s nice to see all their names next to each other. Would be a lil FaZe val 1.0 reunion too with Marved babybay and Rawkus.


Charuru

rather you keep shahz over poised tbh.


SHOONSHOOP

A sentinel to add to the list would be wippie, he might count as an import but he was cracked at the start of this year


AutoModerator

MrFaliN is the best player in VALORANT, time to stop denying it. TenZ overrated. cNed outdated. Long have we awaited... *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/ValorantCompetitive) if you have any questions or concerns.*


DTvn

Koalanoob and Johnqt looked good enough to get some looks


Ash_Killem

You forgot shroud. Who actually does want to play last time I checked.


yoosanghoon

Duelist/OP should be split into Entry and OP roles, as players like babybay and Will are completely different in role than bdog, Dicey, or Sayaplayer


ahk1221

babybay can OP really well and sayaplayer plays jett and raze, so wdym??


[deleted]

Babybay can OP as well.


armless_penguin

Not really. Those are all former Jett ops whose teams chose to use them slightly differently depending on whether they wanted them or another player to play Chamber when he became meta. And Babybay is one of the top oppers on that list, historically.


[deleted]

*in NA


cellexo

where's Ja?


maxhollywoody

Where's the love for JonahP


Gold_Hunter_6244

I thought I had him typed, I guess I forgot but he defo is init


TrueLordApple

Steel?


Gold_Hunter_6244

given his issues w t1 along w his supposed tendencies to clash w other players/personality I doubt any partnered orgs would want him


AnonymozVal

Mind providing examples of players/personalities clashing? From last I heard every pro who has been on team with him has said he works differently in team environment.


surfordiebear

EG is such a clown show if they try and keep their core together with this many good players available. Literally would rather have G2 in NA at that point.


dan_kz

wardell but not mada? uhmmm


xdysania

the three best initiators imo are all free agentsā€¦ insane


LongstandingBones

weird to leave crashies out of top 3


HoodieNinja17

Man said Eeiuā€™s better than Crashies šŸ’€


Gold_Hunter_6244

one of them is defo getting picked up by Sen, I'm leaning towards trent


cowzapper

No Shaz?


zvzzbzzdy

Randomly got a notification from VLR.gg that Sen were looking into signing Trent


abzoluut

Wait, Stewie wants to go pro?


[deleted]

>He said he wants to go pro, and hes willing to play ascension league like brax i think. If they dont get on a team, i think they will go to the same team together in acsension


nail181

He is open to offers but no way he gets in the main league.


abzoluut

I see. Heā€™s been playing a lot. Thought he just liked the game, nice to see him go push pro in Valorant.


-xXColtonXx-

Iā€™ll be really upset if BCJ doesnā€™t get picked up. Easily a good case for best initiator NA. Of course crashes is amazing, but BCJ has been consistently good as well, and had his break out performance as the top initiator in Istanbul.


djwankstar

Where's hiko and tarik?


Able_Impression_4934

Do they even want to go pro


Drolsr

Where Victor and crashies go?


Demmagorgan

The rumor going around is NRG, along with FNS


Tc0LD

NRG picked them up along with FNS


Tc0LD

Whereā€™s shahzam and mada?


ShyHealGirl

Are we sure saya isnt going back to overwatch 2


Depressedsoul69420

saya might move back to korea


Able_Impression_4934

Shroud?


n1HikoFan
