Nations Cup. The gift that keeps on giving.

With Jordan, I believe we have all the top players playing?

Nations Cup. The gift that keeps on giving.

With Jordan, I believe we have all the top players playing?

Of the active ones, if you exclude Canada who are likely to come very soon, we would miss:
ACCM & BacT,
PROject_Belgium and Hearttt, who would have to play with lower-rated players,
Modri, who might or might not find a team,
classicpro who understandably probably won't find a team.
Then you can extend your list by adding players like Overtaken, Fish, bruh, Paladin and a few more.

Poor Modri.

 

[Huehuecoyotl22]

Poor Modri.

Why? He is in a better situation than DauT regarding finding a decent team and DauT registered.
He at least has @MrPlanner as a 2k+ team mate.

So glad Joadn is involved!

I think Germany have a good chance of going deep now, as long as Nili is perma-benched

Isn't he the 3rd best 1v1 player in the team?

 

[Vossn]

In team games, I'd think Annotoph becomes a lot stronger, but in 1v1, probably yes.

Of couse he is, how is that even a question?

Look at last year's team game performances in major tournaments:

Annotoph: Played sick in 'Return of the Clans' with an oustanding individual performance when Baguettes beat Suomi and went on into the Semi Finals. Also he played great in Battle of Africa, Rise of the Elephants and a couple of other TG tournaments.

Nili: ???? Didnt even take part in Battle of Africa (honestly, is he even still part of GL? Not sure). Was allowed to play a few games in Return of the Clans group stage (when the results didnt matter yet)

I dont think the difference between him and anyone in Germany is as big as him and anyone in the GL playing 4 (except Jordan since he is in both teams).

Belgium does have Gadjo Dilo (2k1), PleaseBeGentle_ (2k) and some 1k8 players, so there are worse teams.

Yes, Belgium could definitely have a decent team. I did not mean "lower rated" related to the absolute average, but rather to him (2k5). Peru also has 2k-2k1? rated players, while Hearttt is 2k5.

 

[i_no_english]

Amazing signup, 130+ teams, all the top players. This will be the most hyped event in years. This tournament deserves EUR 200k+ price pool. Thanks for organizing this Huehuecoyotl2

Ok, just seems Project Belgium is also much less active lately, not streaming anymore as well. Such a shame.

it can happen when tournaments are delayed for a hundred years

 

[IvIaximus]

It happens when you are adult with responsibilities and do not life off streaming games.

Gadjo_Dilo (aka Mits_OS) is Greek and the captain of Greece A

There is a good reason why Nili wasnt participating in BoA3 and Rise of the Elephants. He was an MS (Worlds Edge) employee at that time and since 2022 (?) they are not allowed to play in MS sponsored events.
But in general, how can someone take your statement serious about benching him every game?
Its imo not so clear how Germany A will play. Annotoph as pocket and leader seems pretty clear to me. Running played a solid pocket in BoA3 with Vinch and classicpro. Jordan and Nili mostly played flanks in GL iirc. So that would be my A lineup. Though tbh I dont know anything about the tg styles of chaos, Philipp or Target, so I guess depending on the maps you would switch it up.

why not paladin? he played a lot with yo if im not wrong

 

[Huehuecoyotl22]

I don't know why he is not playing. I asked Yo, if they considered adding him as a backup player, but he said he would not play.

Paladin hasn't been streaming for several months. Likely he has decided to retire permanently. Considering his age and responsibility for his children, it's natural for him to quit.

 

[LeoMontero]

Im really scared that Canada will not sign up.

 

[LowEloNobody]

WHERE MAPLE SYRUP

Im really scared that Canada will not sign up.

I can totally imagine Ra appearing in the discord end of February being like "where can we sign up??"
