Come on Hiko
Added Killjoy, Deathmatch mode, Raze nerfs
I want to think that a professional Valorant team on salary will practice and get better but they have done nothing different in the past two tournaments. Same terrible set ups on defense. Same below average site takes, Hiko actually playing worse than normal as well. I don't see how someone can stream 8 hours a day and expect to play well as a team also. For the most part, its either be a popular streamer, or be a professional gamer. You can't be both unless you are insane, which he just isn't IMO. Even Shroud quit professional gaming to take up streaming because its too much of a committment. Look at any good esports team, and talk about how much they practice. They aren't streaming 8-10 hours a day, and practicing for 4-5 hours, its just not feasible long term for a top contending team. Which is why IMO 100T is not even top 10 in N/A.
How the hell is he the best? If we only consider what he's done in valorant in what way is he the best player? He's the IGL and their attack side is garbage. You say Valliate is the worst pro player but he nearly doubled Hikos kills. Either get hikos dick out of your mouth or stop the cap, hiko has been playing like trash in pro matches. I don't think it has much to do with streaming, the team is just outclassed in pretty much every role when compared to the other established teams.
Because its blatantly false and the fact that Hiko is ever outfragged by Valliate is a joke with the way the team is set up, Hiko always last alive to clutch. And i never said Valliate was better than him but Dre and Venerated definitely are.
Nothing you're saying is based on his Valorant performances, you're just assuming hes the best because of his CS:GO background and not objectively looking at the games.
How can nothing I say be based on his Valorant performances when I literally gave you HiKo and Valliate's K.D(from Valorant)? Venerated is pretty much on HiKo's level but do you actually believe that Dre is better than HiKo? Dre is an average player at best and normally has a negative K.D even when he's playing as a duelist.
Because you're clearly not considering the lack of leadership the team has when Hiko set out to take on that role, they have no synergy.
Btw Dres most played by far is Sage - 25/30 maps played on Sage, not sure what you're talking about with that Duelist BS.
Also not sure if you've noticed at all but the team asbolutely plays around setting up Hiko to win out late round situations. He SHOULD be the top fragger.
I agree with one thing, valliate has to go but Ven and Dre are solid and definitely have potential. Pride is on the fence.
Would I replace Hiko rn? No but if he cant find more success after changes then i think it pretty much points to his leadership.
