The numbers fucked up, its descending order.
-
Boaster - After FNS and Saadhak, he is probably the most accomplished and consistent IGL, and this year, he has shown a noticeable improvement in his mechanics. However until Lock-IN, he had been a serial LAN choker, and hasn't proven he can win without this superteam.
-
Alfajer - Has been Fnatic's best performing player this split, and is insane on Cypher, KJ, and Raze. In conversation for best sentinel with Less and Nats. On any other team, he would be the best player. However, what I think truly makes him great are his mechanics - he seems to win every important gunfight, 1v2's etc. I only rank him this low, because he needs to show me he can maintain that insane form for a longer period of time.
-
Derke - I'm rating him here for the same reason I ranked Alfajer 4th. He has shown incredible firepower and form for the past 2 years, and I think he is the superstar with the most longevity so far. Like Tenz if he never fell off. He has been top 2-5 in basically every LAN he attended. He is one of the few duelists who are elite at both Jett and Raze, and he is the ONLY player who is elite at Jett, Raze and Chamber.
-
Chronicle - basically tied with 1 for me. He is the best flex in the world, and has shown he can play every role and maybe like 6+ agents at an elite level. This ability alone shoots him up to best in the world conversation. He is probably Fnatic's most consistent player, and his supportive utility, especially on Breach, serves as the backbone of Fnatic's execs. He is just incredibly fundamentally and mechanically sound, and has been this good since Gambit. Only player with 2 LAN wins.
-
Leo - He is basically Chronicle specialized for initiators. He is less flexible but can still play every initiator at best in the world level. He is as consistent as Chronicle, but I think his peak is higher. I believe he can hard carry a map better than Chronicle can, and is slightly more clutch in that he can pull out bullshit more consistently. He has better aim than Chronicle (he is #1 in fair gunfight win %). He is pretty much perfect and like Ardiis said, has no holes in his game.
All in all, Fnatic = 2017 GSW. It's kind of bullshit
