How far could a team of the most famous NA ex pros make it if they tried?

QT would be the ADC, Dyrus Top, IWDominate Jungle, Voy or Scarra mid and someone else I can't think of right now would be the support.

I don't have a very good grasp on how good these people are compared to the actual pros right now so I'd ask those of you who frequently watch LCS to give me some of your thoughts on this.

And I know, it won't happen anyway but I think it would just be fun to theorize about it.

As far as going 0-0-X in EU CS and something like 0-1/2-X in NA CS

With Krepo or Kiwikid as support for the lulz

I think as a team, it could work. They are veterans that have played the game for a long time and have very good experience in the game as veterans and know the ins and outs of each champions. Only downfall is that as they are getting older, compared to the latest pro players like xpeke and rekkles is that they wont have as a good reactions time as they used to.

So. Dyrus Top IWilldominate Jungle Voyboy/Scarra Mid ( Anniebot support)? Imaqtpie ADC

I think this team would look good at the start of most games but I don't think they would win games personally.

Dyrus hasn't ever been a player that makes plays or thinks of what to do next so he would need someone to tell him what to do and if so he would be great at doing so.

I'm looking at the team and I would say DOM and/or Scarra would be the shotcallers on the team and neither 1 of those two are good shotcallers. Scarra has more of a game knowledge but looking at multiple "beyond the rift" talk show and how he talks once he makes a statement and someone disagrees he changes his mind and makes it more appealing to them instead. So really a pushover shotcaller but great coach for a young team but not this team.

So it will really fall on Dom to be the shotcaller and Dom has 2 ways of shotcalling.

  1. Aggressive - I'm going to say 75% of NA teams today could DESTROY this team right year.
  2. IDK - He isn't really a jungler that really knows about mechanics or objectives. I mean Dom played on Curse/Liquid for 2 years or so and has the longest game average of a NA pro around 39-41 mins per game with a middle of a pack objective focus per game in NA alone.

Friends! QT PIE has a history of having/ coming up with great plans and it would be poetic justice to have the player that foiled those plans to other teams on his team(Dyrus) but I just don't see him really taking the game seriously enough to win but more so to just have fun. He even stated that before numerous times he would rather have fun and lose then to not have fun and win.

Lets say this team took Immortals spot in the upcoming NA LCS so they will compete with ( TSM CLG C9 C9C TL DIG EF P1 NV) I see them in 9th place ahead of NV in the standings at like 4-14 or something.

Yeah, believe it or not something like this was actually pretty close to happening. Back during summer, NRG was trying to aggressively pursue a bunch of veteran players to try and create a "super team" (we all know how that ended up). The idea for it was apparently quas/santorin/gbm/qt/kiwikid, but QT denied any involvement with it thus they were forced to use Ohq instead.

I want to see a HOTSHOT comeback. Bring back the shot!
