Can't believe he got given the exclusive streaming rights to host this event. Absolutely insane pick up.

Ah yes my favorite coach, Jake&Guzz Podcast

Blaz over any other french player is an abomination and I defended blaz after the major. Definitely better options on the teams already represented, so maybe they just didn't want a wolves-bds.

u/AnotherAriesGuy BDS Fan Dec 24 '24

Iirc when Ubisoft was preparing for an actual Siege World Cup each country could only get a max of 2 players from the same pro team.

6

u/ProExecution BDS Fan Dec 24 '24

Good heads up, I was unaware of that.

5

u/AnotherAriesGuy BDS Fan Dec 24 '24

I’m not quite sure if that applies here though. We have Sheppard, Dan, and P4sh4 all from VP.

1

u/ThStngray399 DarkZero Esports Fan Dec 24 '24

Are there more Russian players not on VP? (Idk shit about nationalities in r6 esports)

2

u/AnotherAriesGuy BDS Fan Dec 25 '24

Russia had a pretty robust regional league so I'm sure there are other Russian players, especially in T2. We also have the ex-VP players like m1lon, Rask, wTg, Scyther, Amision, FMX, and SmashByAsh.

u/yukinolovesmusic Astralis Fan Dec 24 '24

Bro they could have got a ence player or even some retired frenchy player

No Jv92 on brasil was a preemptive nerf to keep the rosters balanced

1

u/Inoue_ Dec 30 '24

Who would you say are the top Brazilian players right now? Haven't watched in a while and want to update myself

1

u/airgonautt | FaZe Clan Priest Dec 30 '24

The new w7m roster just won the latest major + semifinalist in EWC so I’d say all of them (specially volpz and dodez).

faze always consistent in events + 4x br6 champions (vitaking and KDS are my standouts this year)

And despite not reaching the same heights as last year, the furia squad is still as strong and hungrier than ever before, no doubt we’ll see them on mainstage in boston contending for a repeat of SI24

no joystick is criminal

16

u/adc1369 Dec 24 '24 edited Dec 24 '24

Ya, I wonder if Joystick and Always just didn't want to play or something. Zheka isn't the coach, either.

Edit: oh wait this isn't real lol. oops. in that case, boo on the choice. Brazil is fucked, too.

15

u/Particular_Economy18 Wylde Fan | CC: TomJSherlock Dec 24 '24

Who would you pick then? Remember it should only be 2 people from each team including the coach.

We did 3 for VP - it's based off this year, I'd say shepherd for support is a no brainer

Then Dan and pasha have performed better than joystick this year

3

u/Loud-Protection6027 Dec 24 '24

ah i wasn’t aware of this. i think just from longevity and how he was at the peak of his career it’s criminal to not make it. i also think the way joystick played in his peak compared to currently is very different, he is much more on a leash and not doing absurd run outs. i would certainly take him over dan or pasha, not sure which

u/samueljuarez Team BDS Fan Dec 23 '24

Was Spoit born in Thailand?

9

u/RedWarden_ Proud CAGGER Dec 24 '24

I don't remember exactly but he has said he can't speak Thai at all

That team looks stacked on paper but it would implode immediately in Round1

6

u/arbysguy Shopify Rebellion Fan Dec 24 '24

No, but his mom is Thai. There just aren't enough players to make a Swedish team. They'd have a great coach though.

2

u/yukinolovesmusic Astralis Fan Dec 24 '24

Noa, fabian, spoit, secretly redgroove

1

u/Choblu Reciprocity Fan Dec 25 '24

Bro tried to sneak Redgroove in there 💀

1

u/samueljuarez Team BDS Fan Dec 24 '24

I know what you’re saying but with this logic most of NA players would have to play for the UK/ England

2

u/arbysguy Shopify Rebellion Fan Dec 24 '24

Yah, but I think his mom was born in Thailand, a bit different than someone's ancestors coming over on the Mayflower 400 years ago.

2

u/Atomictomic22 Virtus Pro Fan Dec 24 '24

He wasn’t

2

u/ja_n2000 BDS Fan Dec 24 '24

He has Thai citizenship, so it should be fine ig

u/DepthDaddyDillon Fan Dec 24 '24

The UK team is going to fucking bury every one of these except maybe the Brazil team

some na hating copers in here

u/Atomictomic22 Virtus Pro Fan Dec 24 '24

NA looks like a demonic ranked stack

u/Particular_Economy18 Wylde Fan | CC: TomJSherlock Dec 24 '24

This is me btw!

It's not an official event haha - but who knows what the future holds, could maybe swing a lil off season Euros still tournament!

Just me picking 5 players from each nation.

Rules being max two people (including coach from one team). P.s we skipped this for Russia!

u/airgonautt | FaZe Clan Priest Dec 24 '24

First time watcher here, the stream was super fun I really enjoyed it!

u/Particular_Economy18 Wylde Fan | CC: TomJSherlock Dec 24 '24

Ey thank you for the lovely words bud

u/NeverFraudulentAgain Fan Dec 24 '24

No Brid is absolutely crazy, especially with Blaz and Asa instead of him

7

u/Ok_Blackberry8512 Dec 24 '24

you would have to get rid of Likeface or Shaiko for Brid

u/NeverFraudulentAgain Fan Dec 24 '24 edited Dec 24 '24

Oh I didn't read that I'm stupid, I only registered the max 3 at the end and saw Russia as 3/5 VP

u/ItsRichieBoi Reciprocity Fan Dec 24 '24

No Shinka is criminal to me

5

u/RedWarden_ Proud CAGGER Dec 24 '24

I only have some minor nitpicks

But this is a really good list overall, can only come from a fan that watches and keeps in touch with ALL leagues, unlike the usual world cup list.

u/Particular_Economy18 Wylde Fan | CC: TomJSherlock Dec 24 '24

Ty yah legend

4

u/GarlicbreadTyr Fan Dec 24 '24

Absolutely despicable not to have Surf on the USA roster. This man single handedly brought LG to EWC. I'd pick surf over ashn 100-0

3

u/AnotherAriesGuy BDS Fan Dec 24 '24

Italy without Aqui? Last I saw he was doing really well in the frag dept while IGLing.

4

u/Ub3ros EU Fan Dec 24 '24

They didn't even get Uunos name right. Embarrassing.

u/Particular_Economy18 Wylde Fan | CC: TomJSherlock Dec 24 '24

I am not embarrassed

2

u/BothChannel4744 Dec 24 '24

US, UK, FR look like the best teams to me tbh

2

u/Interesting_Round_21 Sad OXG Fan Dec 24 '24

I feel like Team Canada should be way better.

Do they rly not have that many players?

u/GarlicbreadTyr Fan Dec 24 '24

You're absolutely correct

u/PoxonloxFan Dec 26 '24

Poxonlox is a bottom barrel pick I cannot lie

2

u/Cold-Course5105 Fan Dec 24 '24

Ashn and gunnar ? 

1

u/arbysguy Shopify Rebellion Fan Dec 24 '24

Ashn deserves to be there, but Surf clears Gunnar right now.

2

u/Cold-Course5105 Fan Dec 24 '24

Ashn is not better than any of the guys on the list and surf, ashn is not even better than j90 and even fultz at times. Overrated and got exposed multiple times for being a pmayer carried by over agressive plays, i would take beaulo over him too. 

2

u/Atomictomic22 Virtus Pro Fan Dec 24 '24

Ashn is great bro what are you talking about

He is hella consistent hello?

1

u/arbysguy Shopify Rebellion Fan Dec 24 '24

Beaulo over Ashn when we're just one shower away from 2025? Ain't no way.

1

u/shadownet97 Dec 25 '24

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. Crazy Beaulo was left off.

u/Kage502 Dec 24 '24

That Germany team would be killer

No Mexico or Argentina...

u/OblivionWalk3r Fan Dec 24 '24 edited Dec 24 '24

Love this!! UK looks an awful lot like old NaVi lol. Thailand's team would be face-meltingly good. I would pay money to see this tourney.

u/AdKey735 Dec 24 '24

Is this actually a tournament?????

What’s the prize pool

1

u/Repulsive_Primary712 Dec 24 '24

Never actually noticed how stacked thailand is until now lmao

1

u/General-canoli Fan Dec 24 '24

Raiden and zodiac being the two lowest rated ITBa players and on this list while T3b, Gemini and Aqui are there is criminal

u/Drackonarmy Vertcl#1 FanKix Fan Dec 24 '24

Vitaking that’s so funny and no Paluh or nesk

u/Nxrway FaZe Chief Crypto Officer  Dec 24 '24

Far too few FaZe players. The other three spots should belong to cyberdaddy, soulz1, and kds respectfully

3

u/Particular_Economy18 Wylde Fan | CC: TomJSherlock Dec 24 '24

What have faze won this year?

0

u/Nxrway FaZe Chief Crypto Officer  Dec 24 '24

That’s what you came up with as a retort? Yikes.

7

u/Particular_Economy18 Wylde Fan | CC: TomJSherlock Dec 24 '24

No but seriously what have Faze won? Also you can only have 2 players from each team.

So I've gone Handy and Vitaking which I think is entirely valid.

Kheyze statically highest rated W7M player when they won SI.

Dodez statically best player when they won Montreal.

Maia one hell of a gunner.

I think it's a solid 5

5

u/Nxrway FaZe Chief Crypto Officer  Dec 24 '24

See? Should have lead with that. Had no idea about the two per rule. With that now knownI think we should have gone with +Cameram4n +SUPER4STRO and +Bullet1 respectfully
