With recent @TSM changes for @VALORANT including 6th man @BRAX, many are wondering if this 6 man roster meta is actually good for teams. With @Sentinels member “Sick” giving his thoughts, and several other teams like @T1 and @Team Heretics giving it a try.

Hello
Brax is lit
Copying cs yet again lmao
makes more sense in this game than CSGO i think because of agent roles and subbing ppl or rather agent specialties in and out depending on the map.
unlike csgo where you need to perform well to be on the roster in valorant, performance on the certain agents are the factor, if someone is not comfortable to play sage or sova they can put someone who is better in that agents like how heretics rotate niesow rubino and paura.
Aye jake stay hydrated too bruv 💪💪
100t kinda hs this because i feel like if they want to play jett they bring dicey back in
Valorant about to become Haikyu
I think 6 man is good for new talent, they can grow in a team without having the constant pressure of winning.
Don’t need a 6 man when you have Sick on your team.
just saying Jake, ANS is pronounced ahns. Keep up the content guys 🙂
6 man works for some roster in league, I know T1 uses a lot of subs. and having subs help you work for that spot. but then again, 6 man rosters barely work in CS. like Astralis plays more with their main 5 than with bubzkji
Oh No 01:07
Normally I’d say no, it’s tough to build synergy with constant swaps. But tenz showed it’s possible to swap and and instantly produce results. Granted though, not everyone is tenz. But it’s at the very least possible. Thinking about it more, having a bench player swap in for emergencies is a good safety net for orgs and can possible reduce the turnover ripple effects swapping players between teams causes. I see pros and cons of both sides.
When t1 league already got a 10 man roster
third party thing
I have two views on this, I think it’s good for new talent for upcoming players but it seems like they’re just gonna stack more washed NA CS pros on a team. It makes sense to have 6 mans in CS and Valorant to specialize in certain maps or agents but Jake makes a valid point. It can improve competition but it can also makes things bitter because realistically at the end of the day, they’re all competing for a spot. Same applies to sports as well with Baseball, Hockey, etc. If you start under performing, they will Bench you or send you to the minors.
That’s life in sports…. basketball teams don’t have 5 man rosters… they have 12 .
where do i get mirage picture from the background Mr lucky
tbh not a fan of 6 man rosters in the sense of subbing in and out based on map and team comp. I think its a good quality to have to not be stuck to playing 1-3 agents. Having a sub for when someone can't play is understandable imo.
Who s the dude on the left
Sick and I have the same opinion.
If a team had a sixth man, it would put pressure to the players. It would ruin their team chemistry ngl.
I definitely think 6 and even 7 and 8 men rosters will be implemented in the future I'm just wondering if they will be more specialized in maps or agents?
it makes sense to have a sixth man, both on csgo and valorant, because you never know when an emergency, injury, or a controversy, like sinatraa, would arise. To have an extra member to fill in that spot makes a lot of sense, at least that's my take on this whole ordeal.
for what and form who is sinatra being investigated of??? never heard of it
C9 white did really well in their last tournament with 6 players on their team. I wonder if it would really work for other teams.
AAA league
From a investment and Team Management point of, A view 6 man roster is kind of a thin thread.
There's a lot of money in Esports but money doesn't grow on trees
You dont need a 6 man when you have Sick, he can both frag and play sage perfectly
Is T1 still competing,haven’t seen them in a min.
kick cutler and make hazed igl
Imsure they not gonna replace wardell, subroza and drone ….chances are hazed to be replaced.
Just glad Brax got picked, i wanna see him play
I don’t think Brad would not take Haze’s place… probably Subroza..?
valorant
subtitle balarant
Valorant add 6 agents a year so it's useful for a team to have a 6 man that can master a certain agent to it's fullest potential than have a wide range of agents select but not be as good
I agree with sick.
I like how C9white is working on their 6 player roster, depending on maps and compositions they trade players.
Having 6 players makes them able to specialize more in their positions or maps.
Some maps asks for 2 duelists and some maps you can work on a single duelist and with 6 players this change can be made more smoothly.
I think for hero shooters, having a bench player to grind the off-meta heroes is huge. It really limits risk of being a meta-dependent team. Super useful in games like Overwatch where the utility runs deep over gun play, less so in Val.
A lot of teams are always a balance patch away from going up or down in the rankings.
I agree with sick
They should just kick all tsm member and make a new roster because they aint class S player theyre just pubs
Disagree with SicK… this has been a thing in traditional sports for a long time. For example, competition between goalies in hockey only makes them better before one eventually pulls away as the starter. It makes everyone better.
