real shit this guy was one of the most mechanically talented players pre-2023, pre-nerf chamber/jett didn't make this guy great, his aim did
mental reset + good t2 team = 2025 ascension win --> 2026 champs mvp

Chunkio [#2]Exactly.
It's quite the coincidence that his mechanical skill vanished at the exact moment Chamber and Jett got nerfed

Correlation isn’t causation
Chamber + Jett nerfs occurred around the time he got demoted out of T1 to DSG and onwards

A player with goated mechanical talents would have farmed Tier 2 like fluorescent farms in GC.
condsicc [#10]I don't think yay has adapted to the game quite well yet. His raze did look a bit better towards the end of last split but team coord isn't there and he kinda has a reputation to be a difficult teammate.
if he can fix his ego, and learn how to play senti/smokes like demon1 did in 2023, he'd be fine

But he also has a reputation of being a good/decent teamate, since zellsis, vanity, and fns came to support him during the ghensta stuff

if they were in a good mental state, quite possibly yeah.
Don't forget to factor in being dropped by a Tier 1 team with little to no warning and left without any options for a huge chunk of a season (pretty big considering how short esports careers can be)
Being sent from decent teammates to more unexperienced players who have never been in the tier 1 field.
Not saying that Yay is some legend who is just sooo unlucky, just saying that you can't just look at correlation.
Yes, the nerfs made him worse, but they are not why yay is a laughing stock of the community right now.
Mental affects how you play Valorant a lot, I'm sure you can even see it in your comp games.

Yea he's a bit controversial.
I've seen yay play, he doesn't even use a monitor. He visualizes the map in a detailed rendering, completely in his mind. He has a biological wallhack; his godlike perception highlights all enemies within light-years. His eyes are closed as his mouse gracefully swerves across the table, making immaculate twitches as he flicks from head to head. The bullets that escape his gun barrel are surgical; each making a deadly strike in between his opponent's eyes.
