I am surprised as AFAIK Selfless as an org hasn't got much experience with Koreans. And they've already flown him out without even playing together yet. Gamble.

Carpe is a phenomenal player that I think is underrated because of BK Star's performances. I don't think Midnight would be a better replacement at all.

Looks like Sinatra is going to be spending more time on Genji. I'm pretty interested in seeing how Emongg is going to cope with the Hog nerfs and how the team as a whole will deal with these big changes.

All hope may not yet be lost, but it certainly won't be an easy journey.

I doubt they'll put Sinatraa on Genji more often; Carpe played a lot of it in BK Stars and he's pretty good, keeping Sinatraa on Tracer is gonna be way better for this team.

To be honest I'm most confused by how Midnight fits in here - as a Zarya/D.Va replacement that lets them run triple DPS if required? Selfless is p weird in that emongg plays winston and would be the guy to do that normally. Not quite sure what's going on there. Then again I haven't watched Rise Nation in a while because they've always played offstream, so maybe Midnight has some other hidden qualities.

That sounds interesting, and yeah, I'm curious at what they'll be doing for the tank situation or the Emongg/Midnight thing. Like what would their triple DPS comp look like and who would be likely to be subbed out if comp changes are needed.

If Faze continue to be this strong they'll probably take first in the group but the 2nd seed could be a very volatile situation if the Selfless situation doesn't work out as well as it needs to.

It says they're all support for me and midnight as sub for me,maybe sub in midnight if they wanna run tankier comps or switch out kresnik for midnight since midnight is a better offtank to go with emongg's winston

I think the only problem with that is you want your Winston/Rein to be played by the same person, in cases where you need to swap mid-map. Like Winson/D.Va to Rein/Zarya if it was ever needed.

As Sideshow mentioned if Carpe will be on Genji duty it free up Sinatraa go Tracer around and then that just leaves the tank role(s) to figure out.

Sunday can't come soon enough..
