Roster change right after winning a Major? Classic

It’s always like this: after every big win, there’s a risk of becoming too confident. I think the changes will have a negative impact

Makazze is almost guaranteed

Makazze may not be flashier than iM or jL, but he fits a B1ad3-built structure. Less ego, better comms, tighter roles. Add s1mple for game-breaking moments. That’s a balance B1ad3 has always chased.

Totally agree on the structure point. People underestimate how much B1ad3 values discipline over raw firepower.

s1mple returns as an AWPer, while makazze takes over jL’s supportive duties.    maybe.     maybe not.    So far, everyone is silent, no one is saying anything.

As a Vitality fan — if NAVI really bring back s1mple and add makazze? That’s scary. One cracked genius, one humble grinder.  that’s balance.

If he’s truly returning, jL and iM were always at risk. He needs space, and NAVI will bend the roster around him. Again

Financially, this move makes sense. jL and iM probably have higher salaries.

What if this was the plan all along? s1mple steps back to observe. B1ad3 tests English comms, wins Major, then swaps in makazze — his perfect soldier — and realigns NAVI into a new hybrid meta. Feels... orchestrated
