Pound for Pound the best esports player right now? (this year only)
DONK

Off Topic
he wasn't AVERAGE the rest of the year
in MSI he was also trying to carry and played really well, where they got Top 3, and even in one of his worst regional splits ever with one of the worst metas for a pure midlaner (summer 2024) he was still a top 5 midlaner in the lck, and managed to get to worlds. It was also clear that he was saving his body for Worlds, and wasn't really trying and moreso wanted to coast into Worlds
yeah but I am talking this year only. Donk got robbed of esports player of the year cuz the major was in December and the award concluded 3 days before that
Then calling him faker wouldn't be right he wasn't the best player of the year but yeah you could compare him to chovy if he had won worlds ig
I feel like Faker is the GOAT of esports, but if donk continues on this trajectory, he is the GOAT of all esports
he has to do this for 10 more years to even be in the conversation
you are getting way ahead of yourself
Yeah and he will need an org like t1 too. But Cs is very competitive. He might not remain consistent or his team might fall off.
Well the thing is faker is not faker just because he is insane it's because he is constantly insane
sorry bro, only when cs = donk then he becomes better than faker.
Faker is undisputed in league.
I don't know that much about lol, but donk this year
-> Won IEM Katowice with 1.70 rating and set a record the highest rating for an MVP (1st time app 1st time winner) at just 17 years old and around 3 weeks old
-> Has been by far the most hype player in cs media this year
-> HAs been putting up performances of >1.40 AS AN ENTRY
-> Has carried a medicore team to a major win in just 1 year time
-> MVP of several events
-> dozens of EVPs
-> had students dropping school cuz they want to follow in his step
-> resurrected ghoul/anime/weeb culture in russia again just cuz he is a fan of basketball kuroko and tokyo ghoul
bro feels like some fucking sports freak like Shohei Ohtani or Lebron James, this shit is not normal for an entry
This kid is a monster. IF he mantains to deliver this kinda of stats for years to come we are witnessing the GOAT of CS
the last one isn't a point in his favor, he's out of the goat conversation solely based off that 🗿
resurrected ghoul/anime/weeb culture in russia again just cuz he is a fan of basketball kuroko and tokyo ghoul
wtf 😭😭😭
only this year included, ofc donk is too far away, but given this trajectory, bro might be him
they won today because of magixx
chopper shiro zontix shat the bed today
Ngl donk's success isn't that surprising when you consider how much CS he's played he deserves all the success obviously but when you have the time he does it doesn't surprise me that he is a good player the only surprise is how soon he got to that point
