Demon1 had a 1.47 kd in champs 2023 vs prime loud and almost prime prx, pretty bad fall off

It has to be yay though, the only one player to ever clearly prove himself as the best player of an entire year and then started going 6-19 v global fucking esports

Demon1 is so overrated
bro is a 1-2 event merchant and is somehow one of the most discussed players

He was, not because of his gameplay but because of the player he is

you cant say he was the problem tho if Lev just didnt do their due diligence in finding someone to recruit that would fit the holes left by their previous players. Its like recruiting a smokes to do a sentis job cough cough SEN

That is true and Itopata was a bum but not being a real duelist and still wanting to be the main duelist of your team is a problem. It's a difficult thing to deal with and clearly Lev couldn't deal with it and the problem objectively comes from his agent pool

D3ffo is still doing alright, Shazam went from dominating to retiring in a few years

Yeah and he's still alright, hasn't had great teams lately and is definitely not one of the best anymore but I think he'd be okay if he was still in T1 nowadays, Kamo tier or smth

Shahzam was playing pro CS for 5-7 years before entering Val, and he accumulated a decent viewership on twitch.

However ppl feel about him, can’t blame him for retiring. He’s had a longer career in esports than most, not much of it at the top, to give this perspective some credit.

Yall just have to admit that Aspas was never that guy and now he’s the literal worst player in the masters toronto event being a jett one trick duelist

Redgar (igl of one of the greatest team of all time, now?)
Deffo (the spearheaded duelist of one of the greatest team, now?)
Sheydos (f0rsaken before f0rsaken with less extend)
Marved (original iceman, now cant do shit properly)
Ardis
Suygetsu
Cned (THE ONLY REASON GAMBIT DOESNT HAVE CHAMPIONS TROPHY)

Want me to go on?

suygetsu and ardiis didnt fall off much (far away from the convo here)

ardiis was like top 5 and top 10 stats in EMEA Kickoff 2024 and EMEA stage 1 2024. Suygetsu was just as high or higher prob too

NAVI and ardiis with them only fell off after d00mbr0s left (stage 2).
all the propaganda is making ardiis seem like he fell off

Demon1 - peak was incredibly short. Never even close to that level again
Yay - from n.1 to hardly T1 level. Incredible dropoff but has somewhat recovered now. Back to decent T1 level again

Everybody else is further away
