Does he suck, or is he just on a bad team?

hes a perfectly fine player idk why people give him hate. asuna on the other hand...
I low key thought I had an answer for this. But I just went back to the data and I was wrong...
You just gave me something to do... thanks
Alright... I've got a theory.
Zander has the hard assignments. When you look over the film, he's often left alone or has a weak support player that ends up dying before they can help. The trio everyone loves will be aggressive and if they are playing poorly, they often leave Zander 1vX and in his original defensive spot. He plays much more reserve than the rest of his team. And it's usually the correct play outside of some misunderstandings around effective distance of certain guns.
I found something that I only I will think is funny. Zander is a smokes player. As a general rule, when playing smokes, you use a phantom because there are no tracers and you can spam through smokes and get lucky kills (or minimap, just basically inconsistent kills).
Well looks like Zander loves the Vandal and picks it 2:1 over the Phantom. That's a performance debuff.

Ultimately, I think Zander is being put into a system and given rules that run counter to his playstyle. But I think he's a sold rifler and so its hard to see when he's coming up with random 2ks and 3ks in near impossible situations and getting traded.
thanks m4! platoon will be very happy in these statistics and analysis
we might need one for n4rrate soon unless his aim is just ass now. :D
Similar sort of idea. N4rrate can produce in the duelist role but has been playing initiator.
Sample size is on the small side but you would expect the more games they play the more they lean towards the averages for all duelist in the league. For me, first kills is usually a good indicator of an understanding of your role. A little more impressive when a smokes players has a good ratio.
I think overall it's just really hard to recruit in VCT. Most of the players who are considered good came up as aggressive jett players and then were forced to flex.
100T whole team needs to work on their mental, they crumble under pressure very often and complicate maps that shouldnt be hard to win ( pearl vs G2)
He said it in an interview after the Nrg match he realized he was just playing shy and only focusing on utility for his team. In the Nrg and G2 game he said he focused on making plays and looking for kills rather than being a full team player.
And I think that’s obvious he found a solution to his stunt
He is good, 100T just needs an entry duelist thats not a glorified drone and they will be top 3 americas
