Something might be the most overrated duelist in the history of Valorant. How does he manage to reach everyone's top 10. I can name 5 duelists off the top of my head better than him: Miniboo, Narrate, Zekken, t3xture, kk not even counting other roles. He has been mid in every international event too. He needs to prove himself before I can put him in my top 15.

Tameness [#3]homie something's been in ONE INTERNATIONAL EVENT
and he was the second highest rated player on PRX, second highest kills on prx, and the highest k/d on prx
It wasn't as good as his leauge stats but it was his first event
something mechanically looked like the best player on a team that made it to the finals(although i do think jingg was better) i think his lack of flexibility hurts the team so i could understand if you criticize him on that but youre just naming players that are hot rn and saying that they are better players without giving evidence as to why
i get like criticizing a player but at least like make an argument as to why hes "overrated"
Mortadelo [#2]He needs to proof himself:
Procedes to name texture MiniBoo and Narrate
this mf said KK lmao
anyth1ng [#7]this mf said KK lmao
Listen i don't rate zmjjkk too but if edg won Masters tokyo his numbers would've matched Reykjavik tenz
Twentytwo [#8]Listen i don't rate zmjjkk too but if edg won Masters tokyo his numbers would've matched Reykjavik tenz

disagree with his lack of flexibility hurting the team, while he is definitely inflexible i think the team manages just fine
however i think the real argument to make for why he's overrated is that he is only able to provide real value on jett and reyna(reyna isn't a real agent though lbfr) because the actual set of skills something has as a player is EXTREMELY limited
he's still good enough to play on a top tier 1 team because he happens to be really, really, really good at that set of things

something could play initiator too, gekko and breach. He needs to improve his raze tho Jing has a lot to teach him

i'm aware that he has played those agents, but to say that he can play them implies he does it well, which is... an interesting idea
and to be clear the only reason he's played gekko is because gekko utility is relatively very simple, and even then there's a stark difference between his gekko and someone like sacy's

ive never watched sacy gekko vods, their utility cant be that much different surely? somethings gekko util usage has been pretty good so far imo

smth's is honestly just okay, and sacy's gekko looks more prepped, gets better ult usage(imo better than everyone else playing him), and combines better on the fly with tms, though that might be in my head or actually prepped, i havent watched comms vids etc
fwiw im not a big fan of his breach

well theres only so much u can do with breach util, the ceiling isnt all that high
smthlikeyou11 [#28]well theres only so much u can do with breach util, the ceiling isnt all that high
agreed, which is also part of why i think they've put him on it in the past lol
the skill ceiling gap between gekko/breach and other initiators is quite sizeable imo which i think is why he's played the first two and not any of the others
something is still a strong player and i think the idea that he holds back his team is definitely untrue but his strengths are highly concentrated in only a few aspects and flexibility is absolutely not one
