people saying "primmie has the best mechanics in the world" are so so stupid, primmie hasn't proven shit, why are we overrating a player who hasn't done anything in tier 1 val yet

what he should of said was anyone who can play the game well could make a montage and edit it to make themself look better than they are. which is true.

sure, ranked but I'm not saying he doesn't have the potential, just that he is overrated by saying he has the best mechanics in the world

Oh yeah sure, he's probably not the best in the world. But there's an argument to be made for him to be up there

argument based on what? are people with the best aimlabs score better than everyone in the world? he won them the match against ts(chokers), lost 2-0 every single match, went 22-29 against prx btw and had 0.84 rating, what in the best mechanics in the world

Well yes technically they have better mechanics in terms of aim, but not util usage and mobility which are also part or mechanics

so primmie doesn't have the best mechanics ITW?

I guess there's no way to know who's the absolute best (spoiler: there is none) but not considering him as a generational aim demon is pure cope

yay has done more in valorant than primmie has, yay is objectively a better player overall

wrong, because primmie hasn't done shit outside ranked or montages, show me the most insane clip of primmie in pro play to prove he has the best mechanical prowess in the game

anyone can make great montages

but not "anybody" can make primmie level montages

gimme some players who have better montages than primmie and then its fair game. if not then ur point is invalid and primmie is still the best

Just for a bit of context
Uhh Talon were two rounds away from losing 2-0 to GE before Primmie arrived
The fact that they even went to Champs is a miracle in itself

yes, he is good but saying "he's the goat" and "has the best mechanics in the world" is objectively stupid

What do you want him to do tho

if he's put on an actual top level roster that allows him to play his best role (this mf is forced to run sentinel and controller on talon while putting up the best stats), he can easily be the best player in APAC

He deserves overrating
He is the guy who SOLELY made TLN qualify
If he gets a good team like KangKang or Aspas
U can see his true potential.

But what did he got?

Crws: Lowest ACS player
Governor: lowest ACS duelist/init
Ban the mid flex

And u expect him to win against a superTeam like LEV?
Come on bro this must be a bait post

I've made so many posts on TLN just so dat Primmie can shine on a good team

#36

he only won them the match against ts. thats not hard against eternal chokers, he did nothing in champs to say he has the best mechanics in the game currently.

Against a superTeam LEV with NA rejects b0n and g0vern0r

Well as dis was one of the worst baits
I close my case

how does that provide anything in favour of "he has the best mechanics in the world" he played good but he went 22-29 against prx (worse team btw) had 0.84 and was diffed by KICKS in his game vs vitality, if you can't comprehend arguments and are biased just say so, I'm trying to have a constructive argument, you're the one who's being naive and stupid

Either you're braindead or baiting. He's played about 4 matches in Tier 1 and 2 of those was at Champs the highest level of tournament possible.

He's already been praised by TenZ an obvious mechanical god and has been praised by multiple others.

He did great at Champs and if he had more time playing he would've done better.

Yes dis agreed +++++
Very good point
Imagine a player who never played T2 or T1
And gets directly into champs after 3 matches
And STILL individually performs there

Hats off to Primmie
Most PPL would start making excuses:
'OH ITS MY FIRST LAN'
'PRESSURE GOT ME I BOT FRAGGED'

he’s really not. He’s deadass one of the best players this game has ever seen, yall need to remember that players can only show their full potential in a good environment. Primmie has one of the worst yet can still put up insane numbers.

Do you know how insane it is to have the other 4 players on your team to have a avg 0.75 rating and 171 acs. Yet ur still able to be one of the highest rated player in the tournament

his rating doesnt mean shit when he played 4 maps at champs and lost all of them 😹

He still had the third highest rating at Champs while his team went out 0-4, so yeah

he had to win one match against a mid apac team who are known chokers, how does that prove anything, also he did make them win that match so he is good, best mechanics in the world, far from it.

on the best mechanics argument it's pretty obvious he's on the upper echelon of valorant pros, all you had to do was watch champs

primmie is good but his debut was NOT even one of the best. 0 impact vs PRX/DRX, only farmed against TS. I know he is good but you don't have to lie about it.

ignoring the eye test and praise by his peers, he subbed in last second and managed to stand out and top his team every single game he played, he even called one of their most important maps of the year to go into champs and then proceeded to shine against the best of the best, this type of shit has only been done by demon1 and tenz

Karon had a much better debut compared to primmie, and I didn't say that primmie was bad. you have to look at it objectively. He is a great player, but calling his debut one of the most impactful when other debutants like karon and flashback (very good in kick off, had to sit out until stage 2 with IGL change, still had a very good season) had better results individually and team-wise is pretty much biased.

Will he be better in 2025? Most probably.
Was he good in 2024? Yes.
Was his debut as good as you make it up to be? No.

#111

karon got to prepare a whole ass pre-season on his own dedicated role so i'm not that impressed, although karon is easily rookie of the year

im sure they would have done equally well, and you just cherry-picked wtv you wanted to rebut. Is his debut really as good as you make it out to be? no. Good game vs TS, no impact vs PRX/DRX, played pretty well in champs. But all of a sudden this gets compared to TenZ 2021 and Demon1 2023. the only impact he had was vs TS

you don't understand just how impressive it is to have that type of individual performance while being in a bottom tier team, if he didn't join the team just doesn't go to champs

there is no impact. they didnt win a single map. primmie or not they lost and there was no lasting impact on the playerbase. mate what is this scenario youre making up in your head? if they didnt have primmie they wouldnt have made it to champs? Talon has beat TS before albeit they have a new core that new core lost to RRQ, which talon also beat before. Talon 100% had a chance to beat TS even without primmie. you cant base your logic on their performances with primmie cause without primmie they wouldve played a different comp, different setup, different comms, different vibe cause you have a whole fucking new teammate. dont try to spiel and act like talon had a 0% chance of going to champs without primmie cause thats delusional

primmie has had few professional games and still managed to stand out... bro, didn't you watch champions? he crushed it even though he was on a not-so-good team, showing that his skill isn't limited to ranked matches. the main reason primmie is talented in mechanics is because he knows how to play with the keyboard, the a-d movement he uses makes it difficult for the opponent to hit him and also helps with aim positioning, meaning he doesn't need to make micro adjustments or flicks...

you can tell man. when you watch a player play you can tell. him having good mechanics is some of what it means to be a pro player. However, you can have great mechanics and still loose a shit ton. look at N4rrate on Mad lions.

I agree with you but man you suck at arguing. primmie makes clipdumps which a lot of other top players dont even bother doing so hes really popular off of that. is he the best? def not, his performances in t1 have been mid and definitely not deserving of the title of the best in mechanics. but in terms of ranked and of those that upload videos CONSISTENTLY along with staying #1 in ranked, he's definitely one of the best in the world

#101

Frags

bro, but are you comparing performances or mechanical skills? at least correlate them. opening and pixel marking, tracking, flick shots, aim positioning... all of these are mechanical skills and that's what needs to be compared. that's why primmie is standing out, because he knows how to use these mechanics correctly at certain moments in the game, making him more successful than the others.

#105
x_knowitall39_x

Frags

you can talk about him being more successful than others when hes been successful at something aight? aimlabbers can be as technical as they want cause thats their niche they live for aim. no need to do all that for valorant, if youre not dropping 10+ as the "best mechanical player itw" maybe your mechanics arent making you as successful as you think they are

I like all the primmie hype and I loved watching primmie play but I do think people are overrating him a ton. Just because he had a few strong games in T1 off rip doesn't mean he's going to keep that level of performance forever. It's very commonly said on this website that ranked demon =/= tier 1 pro demon. Doesn't matter how long you're top 1 in ranked, it's still a different world between ranked and pro.

If he performs next year the way he did for those few games (which I hope he does), then I'll 100% join the hype train. Otherwise all this glazing is just going to make primmie be more disliked if and when he starts performing worse. When you set the bar this high you better hope that person can reach it.
