miniboo was team liquid best player. I would argue miniboo is top5 on current form rn
Let's look at all the dive duelists right now. based on stats, miniboo is better than babybay, mada, Noman/Rarga, k0ngk0ng, bipo, Buzz, Jinggg, alym, iamgrq, Lar0k, and many more. He was emea best dive duelist and i would argue best dive duelist rn.
You have to remmember miniboo job is to make space which he will likely die in and he still fragged. He is playing on an unproven team and carried them to 3rd place in front of vitality and fnatic.
The duelists better than him mostly play as secondary duelist where they can frag based off the space made by the first duelist. Miniboo did not need that to frag + he has impact outside of fragging due to space making and selfless playstyle.
he learns how to do that off constantly being baited liek a dog from heretics, he had to learn how to play self sufficient fragger
hard times create strong men i guess we all gotta get hard to feel his journey on becoming a goated player
you miss him now hes gone but made hate threads when we had him your just fake, i am the true miniboo_glazerr
cant believe we calling neon only the dambi buff instead of miniboo buff#
like hes a fraud he lit only started playing neon after the buff
OMG cg you're a genius
in terms of executing the duelist entry role, he's t5. when it comes to just the skill of the players in that role, he's not t10
in current form:
larok
lovers rock
f4ngeer
dambi
kk
marteen
koala
mada (maybe prolly not)
jawg
kamo
izu
rarga
are all better, and thats only santiago teams
who are the sneaks? this my opinion so idc im just curious where u think im wrong
jawg has been complete dogshit, literally the worst player on his team.
kamo has been good but he's on and off, miniboo has been fairly consistent and you could make an argument for nats being liquid's best player but definitely not kamo.
I don't watch china but kangkang and rarga have mid/bad stats, based on what are you rating their current form higher?
mada is at best equal based on current form and he actually plays entry, not sure why you highlighted him when he's like the most fitting comparison
the rest I can accept, but most of them play secondary duelist and not even entry duelist so it's not really a meaningful comparison
jawgemo criticism is wild, if you watched a single g2 game you would know that their old playstyle revolved around baiting him, and their new playstyle alternates between baiting him and babybay.
plenty of players whose teams have that play style and play significantly better than him
in current form but jawg is on this list…
kk and kamo are also not better than him in current form
bro does not watch valorant. thinking kamo, k0ngk0ng, jawg, rarga, f4ngeer, larok, mada is better than miniboo rn
mada is the same as miniboo, a dive duelist designed to make space. difference is miniboo fragged more and carried his team more than mada.
this post is about dive duelists tho, which players like lovers rock are definitely not in the way they play yoru
everyone else sucks btw
n0ts w0yne and whoever the fuck the fifth guy is
i like kamo tho
He create so much space, people meme him for that but suck dambi's dick for literally doing the same
he was good in all the games this kickoff other than the one vs fnatic that they got stomped in iirc
his form is good rn but overall I would take something jingg t3xture primmie hyunmin jemkin meiy dambi buzz lar0k loversrock kamo kaajak derke marteen ara oxy aspas zekken sato neon keznit mada rarga whzy zmjjk over him
derke hasnt looked like a remotely good duelist since leaving boaster stop baiting
top 15
he has literally only has a lan run to be proud of
and you could argue that riens/woot/ benjy were hard carrying the boo bros
what does this have to do with their champs '24 performance
sit here and tell me miniboo had a good tourney
not true imo, he was good in madrid
he is inconsistent but for the most part on for champs
maybe if you ignore shanghai, seoul, 2025 stage 2 playoffs and all of this years stage 1
pretty good
as for the tournament I would put him in the upper echelon, and hes obviously shown that he is capable of playing at tournament winning level
he's competing with:
marteen
koalanoob
larok
lovers rock
f4ngeer
dambi
izu
hes for sure top 10, and im very high up on him as a player right now (hes in my top 15 going into Santiago, but so are the players above)
but i dont think i can reasonably say hes having more impact than izu, dambi, marteen, lovers rock and koalanoob right now
okay thanks
but
i have more than 300 usd in 100T apparell
im not disloyal
im just supporting eeiu for masters
once a thief
always a thief
trust we all know ur lore for this current flair but im glad you enjoyed this opportunity to display ur true allegience once a thief
always a thief (just dont ever come for my goat supamen ever again)
I think in the current meta, yoru only "duelists" should have a different list BC they are just set up to farm. Dive duelists or player that do both are heavily in disadvantage otherwise
