MIBR DOWNGRADE?

Valorant Discussion
Artzin was a great second caller.
MIBR lost a lot in terms of tactics with Artzin's departure.
fartzin eliminated MIBR from Champions and consistently put up FNS numbers all season
he literally gave up on the IGL role in the middle of Stage 2 and a rookie had to take the role in the worst phase of MIBR when they needed to qualify to Champions
Artzin in champions 2025 is better mazino in champions 2024

its a difference of only 0.04 rating, but Mazino played 77 more rounds and reached Top 3
Mazino also won the 2024 VCT Americas:

artzin finished 2025 with a 0.84 rating in 1700+ rounds, he never had a positive rating in any tournament he played in 2025, worse numbers than a FURIA 2025 player and worse fragging than Boaster in VCT 2025

are we sure buddy?
bro gets worse and worse and more baity every year
aspas in 25 was breaking records against kru carrying to get 3rd, aspas in 26 rode a gentle wave to lose all 3 bo5s
aspas had his worst ever performance in toronto that year and yet he improved massively in the next event, if he can have a bad kickoff which is nowhere near as bad his toronto performance then he will easily bounce back especially with the yoru nerfs which is a buff to him
Artzin in champions and kickoff 2025 is better mazino in champions and kickoff 2024

Really does just come down to artzin vs mazino since I think the gap between Xenom and Zekken is compensated by the gap between Cortezia and Tex. Now whilst I wouldn't say Artzin is better than Mazino, at the same time I don't know much I rate Mazino to say he's better than Artzin. Especially since Artzin did help MIBR with calling.
Idk I think mazino is overrated and I never really paid attention to Artzin (I also cannot trust an Aspas fan word on either of them)
