Karon already has a trophy and has made deep runs in every tourney that he played, he clears mako

If you think that than is redgar > mako, karon is the 3rd best player on the team while mako is the best

mako needs to be compared to boo or ange1 or smth since he's the igl now

Tbh, with MaKo igling right now, i’ll give Karon the edge.

Aside from that, this argument is annoying because people holds team success over individual performances. However, MaKo without the burden of being igl is better

if that’s the case, that means lakia is the best initiator in the world

karon has incredible stats unlike redgar, he will surpass mako soon enough

if you’re counting the whole lifespan of Valorant then I’d say MaKo has been consistently good for years but as for current form then its definitely Karon

Leo, eeiu, david. Winning masters don’t mean you have the best player in every role. It’s a team effort, which includes coaching and

In fact i would guess having a top 5 player in every role is enough to be the best team itw. That’s not the case with gen g bc i think they have the best duelist and senti but you get the point

Each year people make the same thread about someome who won a tittle, lets wait to see who's consistent.

Mako has seen the rise and fall of pAncada, Marved, Jawg/Demon1 and he is still there being a top controller.

Ofcourse, but you should compare him with flashback tho. We will see who is the goat.

Redgar in 2021 cleared mako but he fell off after that, karon hadn't had a chance to fall off yet so for now he clears

not to mention that fact that the best teams of last year have all gotten worse due to a massive shift in the meta. This thing always comes down to long term consistency, so i agree, it’s always best to just wait and see.

everyone was shit in 2021, thats why teams with only 1-2 good players were good enough to win tourneys

Right now I would give it to karon, but mako has had a higher peak than karon imo. Their playstyles are very different too.

Threads like this are always full of recency bias bullshit. If we're talking 2024 than Karon clears Mako for sure. But Mako has been a top controller for a LONG time. I don't know how you could compare a player with a career as long as Mako who has been at so many internationals to a player that's in his first year and has only been to two.

I mean, he's top 3 for sure. I think Riens/Lakia/Sacy are the top 3.

2022 mako was top 3 itw, peak karon is 3rd in his team

This is the correct argument. Like Karon has had games where he played average or bad and his team still wins easily. The teams are not the same at all
