Damn bruh, Eggster literally says he hasn't been doing good in scrims and he doesn't enjoy playing this new role and is actually Clueless and doesn't understand what is going on in between the rounds and he's not in the same page as his teammates when everyone reacts diiferently to the other team from how they did in practice as the other teams react differently too.

He'll begone soon dw about him. Unfortunately one trick yoru inevitably wasn't gonna work out
every decision he makes in the game is reliant on the fact that he’s playing yoru i’m dead bro
even when he’s shooting his fucking gun his brain freezes for a sec because the arm of his agent holding the gun isnt yoru
I don't really understand how this guy even thought he will survive in VCT only by playing one agent his entire career?
its rough for sure. an exaggerated rule is that one trick ponies are not actually good at the game, they're just good at their agent.
I won't assume, but imagine if you played a specific role in any other sport or esport and forcibly changed to something drastically different and more demanding whilst not getting the proper support to adjust - you're more or less trying to figure it out on your own. Feels bad for Eggster, but the meta shift is drastic and going off-meta to play a nerfed Yoru feels so risky. Kind of surprised that ENVY didn't sign a replacement during the off-season.
Riot doing natural/artificial selection, the unfit/maladaptive organism/player will get outcompeted. Eggy was good enough while yoru was good enough, now not so much
I never thought I'd hear a player be described as "maladaptive" but that is simply a sublime word to use
listening to it now, what is bro even saying, claiming he was the star before and matches were won or lost because of him?? Cane and ion dragged his ass through challengers, bro is completely delulu
He 100% was the star for them?
Imo their asc run in order:
Egg
Inspire
Ion
Cane
Poppin
For value imo - although poppin was hella valuable and consistent as well
If we're talking pure gamesense, Eggster was their best player. He played the smartest val out of all of them through asc but unfortunately things change, his Kickoff run was so-so and clearly he wasn't prepared for the nerf of his agent
yup, he was super impactful in their tier 2 run; unfortunately his first stint in tier 1 started without the same squad at ascension so he needed time to adjust to new teammates and then his agent got nerfed to the ground
i said challengers not ascension. idc how hard he farmed brazilian tier 2 teams. go look at games vs NA teams
egg isnt the best player though. cane is still better. just having more rating doesnt mean shit vlr gives less deaths too much importance. go check their stats. cane was in a slump btw. and played 7 different agents unlike egg's 1.
Well I mean the stats are a bit disingenuous because eggster was playing secondary duelist while cane was playing entry which is almost always statistically worse than secondary entry because entries are most likely to die especially on a team that was as aggressive as NV during ascension.
Atp they should start working out the differences between them and inspire
i'm not really sure what we were expecting anyway out of eggster, he wasn't even the best duelist in NA when yoru was completely broken and he is the biggest yoru crutch in the entire world, once that agent got nerfed he was gonna be completely cooked it was only a matter of time.
i saw this guy, pistol round defense side on breeze, run out of B and clear it as if he could just tp away as a harbor. No info, nothing
