No? im saying he can't replicate any of his performances and on top of that you're kinda adding to my point he had it good in optic that's why he got called the best but after optic what happened? he is b a d. and if you say T2 are not close to optic i agree so why did your best player in the world frag out in T1 valo and can't do shit in T2 as a DUELIST i repreat DUELIST the point of a duelist is being able to create something ALONE you are supposed to go in first u are supposed to backstab you are supposed to hold the side down without util he did none of that. Again look how other duelists played in challengers its a night and day difference there's no denying it or coping this is pure delusion to say that he only played bad because they played bad they can say the same thing "we expected yay the best player in the world to frag out but he didnt do shit so we didnt know what to do"

he wasn't getting flashed by his team arguing that it's because of the flashes is a bit dumb since it's his fault he got caught in a flash so many times its about positioning aswell and choosing timings he has 0.75 rating on jett this split and 0.57 on jett not to mention these are relegation teams they lost to 2-0 and he got to patch his stats up a bit cause now he has 14FK and 24 FD before it was 8FK and 20FD u can't say it wasn't that bad tbh

That was one thing in 2021 (btw had the easiest opponents they could had wished for at the time) nothing else to say he was insanely good for more than a year and then they went to champions and didnt get out of groups then was his best year 2022 and nothing else

That's braindead thinking a paid proffesional that's considered one of the best in the world would be so heavily impacted by other's gameplay when supposedly he was carrying others year prior? then what happened? that u get 0.75 on agent u played like 3100 rounds on in pro and a staggering 0.57 on sage bro some no names peformed better in t1 valo while their team being totally dog water and it being their first year in t1 same goes for A LOT of new faces in t2

lmao yes check his achievements indeed 2022 was the year he was good before he didnt win anything and after so am i wrong?

I didnt say they are better after he left but at the same time they are like sorry not sorry we don't know why and what the ceiling would be like u said but i doubt kicking him out was for fun and coincidentally they look the best ever and i highly doubt they would look better with him that's what i mean and facts are if u look at his performance in T2 valorant and getting absolutely man handled by ore and mad it just goes to show he's losing DUELS with them im telling u imagine Aspas dgzin etc playing there don't you see them having ~25 kills each map i do

Also it wasn't a team flash idk what u smoking + his KAST% is just bad not to mention that this game was one of his best performances out of the 7 they played this split in last 30days 14FK 24 FD 0.75 rating on sage 0.57

But why would you focus on others in the team when they were never considered good or even THE BEST like yay they performed to their expectations the whole team sucked af they played worse than a random immortal premier team even GO VALORANT would clap dsg on every map but if you say someone is the best and people still say that shit its controversial making it the topic to talk about nothing else put aspas in dsg and he goes 25kills each game 100%

I mean either he bounces back from the pit of hell or he doesn't and im betting on the second it's been 1,5yrs for him to actually play like a tier1 player in pro u can call me vlr plebs but this guy was getting set up by a world class team once he got coincidentally kicked went to c9 and got kicked again and c9 is looking better than ever and now he has 0.75 rating on jett imagine playing only 1 agent and being so below positive score even eggsalt went off role and did better on reyna

I mean don't get me wrong dsg was looking horrendous worse than ranked with no comms on god and those molly whiffs lots of 1vs1's 1vs3's lost but honestly dsg looked like the worst team in challengers and yay wasn't the one shining above the rest Exalt went off role and had some crazy kills this season clear was stable positive yay was just straight up bad im a lil bit salty bcs people still argue he's the best (he had 1 good year in a world class team with world class controllers/igl's with a playstyle that allowed everyone to shine it was visible how optic was setting him up and chamber meta ended valorant changed nd yay ended went to c9 got kicked went to dsg and got kicked out of challengers)

Igl is not the reason why a duelist can't go positive for like the whole season he's losing duels 1v1's a lot it's not igl'ing also if your duelist needs a top class igl to frag than he's not really that good then in optic he was set up by world class players he was spamming chamber meta changed valorant changed when he has to set himself up he's bad af for 1,5 years straight rn and i'd argue duelists are the one's that should be capable setting themselves up for kills look how pussy and whiffage yay plays and how other duelists in challengers and franchising its a day and night difference imo no wonder optic and c9 dropped him. I might be a lil salty bcs people still say he's the best when he's literally like tenz had 1 good year out of 3,5 of pro valo

Its over if there are still some deluded yay fans im sorry for your loss. He is trash ngl. He's losing duels like a muppet while being in a better spot dsg went 0-7 2-14 in maps to be precise

I mean i agree with -gengshta,nerve,clear
Exalt does some magic
Yay can still do smth when he's team is not completely running it but idk as a duelist he's too pussy he never enters and if he does he gets clapped he's just not good for a whole year now so idk
Poach someone from faze/tsm/shopify or even Dazzle from Turtle man Dazzle is an underrated igl with a good team he can certainly make it to playoffs easly which is a huge upgrade considering what they currently have maybe koldamenta from koi avova from heretics he can surely pay better than bottom eu teams or just bring someone "unknown" or a rank demon at this point

Interesting would be cool to see a chinese team actually get somewhere

yes and no fut has less experience overall than eg's players and coaching staff in tier 1+ bcj has masters on top of lockin

bcj+ could argue ethan com and jawgemo a lil bit in lock in and ethan playing for so long

Bro u put eg between eg and ase at second last i get it demon1 was crucial for them but cmon

That's one of the 2 possibilities i think can occur like im 100% certain on edg and drx but eg fut and navi nrg is just about who shows up on the day imo eg grew up as a team and now since they won exceeding expectations they will have more confidence and fut likes to choke navi will win if the old man ange1 doesn't sleep if he sleeps then its over nrg stomp

Yeah but i think they have good enough coaching and experience in the team that always shows important in int tournaments i think they will be better than attacking soul(tho they had so much more time to prepare) and fut will just choke that's why i think fut will win 1st game but lose the rematch also navi/nrg is hard to call since navi was bit off in form and nrg just got into form and their experience is immense but last time fns lost with old fpx

Prophecy?

People forgot the whole team literally played around yay and setting him up once he went to c9 that couldn't set him up so well and didn't have that much strats in their pocket and experience he is looking like a tier 2 player both in c9 and dsg on top of that ardiis is playing in a whole different region with a different playstyle different coms style and he's never the worst and has crucial cluthes people overlook toooo much and just look at stats his acs and first kills per round is top notch even tho he is a player that supports his team really well and is willing to die to just buy time or cut off rotations

+its a different playstyle ardiis is allowing others to shine while other teams set up their duelists like loud sets up aspas really well and on top of that they shoot too which is why they are the best he is 70%+ good for entry also he shouldn't be compared to players that only play 1agent+ considering how "cheap" he was he's one of the best pick ups nrg could had and its obvious to anyone with a brain why fns+victor+crashies(one of most decorated na players) choose him to the team ppl are just delusional fr

Ayo what happened lil bro sorry to say i told you so.

Tbh jett isn't too op imo tho i would nerf her that when she ults she deals less from her dagger like won't 1 tap u head when u have full armor and only deals the full dmg like rn when she's in the air updrafted/jumping dwon gliding etc so she wont be that good to just run u down that's a pretty big nerf imo but also isnt that much at the highest level+encouraging jett for her updraft to be actually used for something more than just dodging

s0m is the best harbor in the league

The anime is wrong. I'd be even okay with Dragon ball naruto or actually whatever would be hard to not beat akame ga kill(tho esdeath is sexy af)

tbh i like furia would like them to win aswell but idk if they can win vs c9 but if nrg beats furia they also beat c9 with 2 ot's im Nostradamus also if anyone is to make a difference in nrg vs furia its dgzin and ardiis not on jett tho mwzera is one of the best skye's in this league IMO at least top 5

Yup They gonna win 2 ot's to win vs c9 there i said it.

IF they do. Still such a long brake could hurt his performance and the team playing again a different style with bcj. Then they would have to adapt to playing with demon again+ its really sad to be performing soo good denying expectations and u can't prove yourself more and have your lil moment ,so many players dream to even just go to masters

DAMN C9 went from looking the best to looking like KRU or even worse like some diamond lobby go foward together and get 1v4'd EG is SHOOOOOTING its soooo sad sucks af demon1 won't go to tokyo when he's playing so good

I didn't assume shit there was literally drama about it and -enko doesn't mean he's suddenly not russian lmao they both are+ i just added it that it could be additonal reason to justify why they could not take him + why does it matter i literally squashed your take with stats and reality and that's the only thing u can get mad at at this point and u still choose to do so

I literally did i was a gambit fan and i agree he is good on skye and well decent on kayo but he clearly feels the best on sentinels his profile says that. he said that. his stats say that. (he even had sage as his profile pic for half of his career) so if anyone is delusional its you im sorry. i agree starxo is not performing at all wolfen is also trash we're not talking about koi even cause koi is just bad maybe he would like to try again at flashes and they do -soulcas +sheydos but i doubt it and pretty sure he and trexx were pro russia while nats redgar and chronicle werent so it might by another reason why we might not see sheydos in TL

im sure if he was performing better he would be plaing the initiator+ i checked all his stats and he played 2500 rounds with sage alone even in gambit he was playing sage more than half of the time he played 1700 rounds on flash initiators and played 2800 rounds on sentinels he played breach this split more than ever and that's the only initiator he played and no he doesn't performs best on flash maybe right now cause sentinels have a different job to do which i think he's really good at breach is turbo easy its like playing brim

But we are talking about current him just because he played other agents a year ago doesn't mean that he's still "flash initiator main" when he literally isn't

I mean most games he played sentinels and in terms of initiators he only played breach then what about fade omen gekko kayo that are valued more on pretty much all maps other than fracture and sometimes lotus they need more depth in their squad nats is basically cypher/viper one trick

Id's say its both+a lil bit of flavour its EU vs NA, NA vs EU , Asia enjoyers , Sentinels Apologists and Underdogs haters lmao didn't hear that player's name before? so he must be dogshit basically type beat

they'd have half of the gambit roster and 3 russians that already played with each other so normally i'd agree but the problem is that soulcas is playing controllers/initiators and sometimes sentinels while sheydos plays mainly sentinels so preferably they'd need someone that plays controllers/initiators

That's why i think redgard would be a reasonable change if they bring another top tier igl otherwise soulcas imo is a valid replace currently he's 36th out of 45 in EMEA which is actually looking worse than ever like usually almost everyone was competetive now its just FNC NAVI TL everyone else is average at most maybe giants look somewhat above avg they could even import someone from pacific like monyet/xffero for example they are showing great potential while playing in a similar lvl of competition gotta give it to America this year their overall level of gameplay(like all teams included) is higher than emea or pacific but that's all in my opinion(and some stats :P)

With current form FNC C9 and DRX look the most likely to win Tokyo ofc let's not jump the gun but we can be hopefull Sentinels is the biggest flop imo with their squad depth and it really feels like big part of their bad results is ego;/

yeah but those teams used to play around their stars like yay so they would have diffrent strats executes that turns out dont work anymore since valorant evolved and its not about just clicking heads better or playing chamber sentinels played around tenz and got shit stomped same happened to c9 they dropped him and look better than literally ever in org's history in valo so i think letting the whole team shine and not having and ego is a big thing in valorant competetive environment (navi/fpx fnc drx etc examples ) also he was overpaid for what he was bringing tenz is a different story since he has 3x the fanboys bringing in additional revenue

They -bcj +demon1 and they are looking really good before they looked like kru but worse like they are playing ranked with friends but its visible potter stepped up they now look like they know what they are doing and have the skills to do so big kudos to EG aswell i hope they can play even better

I think PRX hype just died out but they are still good and doing how it was expected imo im sure people will talk about them when playoffs start but i agree EG is showing potential and Liquid if they replace Redgar/Soulcas with someone competent like idk Trexx/Hoody/Molsi or Fnc's sub Kamyk they' might look better i think Soulcas should be replaced

TBH there is not enough people talking abou C9 and very little appreciation/recognition let's be honest NOBODY expected them to do THIS GOOD +71 Rounds and 7-1 score built out of teams "reject's" even let yay go and it feels like the best thing they did especially looking at yay now and without chamber and his whole team to setup him imo. Big Kudos to them. What do y'all think are there other teams showing great potential but not being talked about? (also monyet from global esports is cracked af wish an actual good team picks him up)

This guy is absolutely smurfing on everyone he's playing controllers having 200+acs on average with 70-85% KAST in pro play has like 3 or 4 aces already he's always good for at least 1 kill which is extremely valuable as a controller imo he has enough potential so far to find a better team next year and go far

Imagine not cheering for the team that won and made an absolute spectacle of a game.
