can s0m = bang ?

we’ve seen that bang was able to go from a mediocre astra/reyna player on TSM to probably the 2nd best smokes player in NA.

if NRG do what they’ve been reported to and keep s0m, that means he’s transitioning to smokes. current s0m and TSM bang are in very similar positions, do you think s0m could be brought up by Chet to be an even better player than bang?

but the content and personal branding of him being a duelist main would be broken, idk if he would want that but idk

He has the aim and the game sense fs, just depends on his comfort with the characters, and he has played smokes before so I think he has potential to be as good as bang

he is good but idk about = bang

He's been on smokes before and it didn't work out that well for NRG. That is why Hazed converted him to an Oper/Duelist role on NRG.

For the brief period when Subroza took over smokes, he popped off too. Not playing a duelist gives you the advantage of not entering aggressively and that too specifically on smokes you can play very passive and sometimes aggressive.

Yes ofc, in term of aim he is atleast top 10 aimer in NA and he can play any agent. If Chet and FNS train him hard to make him a dedicated controller player, maybe he can reach one level below Marved's level.

Maybe a hot take but I think both bang and s0m could surpass Marved next year as the best NA controllers (not including IGL ability), but with Marved still comfortably ahead of 4th place

can s0m bang :flushed:

lol no. S0m is decent on smokes but bang is a different breed. Bang should be compared to the likes of Marved because as far as the trend is looking, bang is on pace to outperform Marved. S0m is a domestic level player, bang is an international level player.

bang overrated

s0m most overrated pro

s0m is pretty MID tbh

vlr really calling s0m mid when he's probably the best player in terms of lifting the morale of the team
