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

cloudberry [#2]You don't need to be a pro player to prove your mechanics
but how else are you supposed to prove your mechanics
Denjisideals [#3]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
laifu [#6]TS makes it to champs if primmie didn't play and im assuming you haven't seen any of his fragmovies or his ranked stats
again, he is a game changer i don't deny that, but what did he do in champs? saying he has the best mechanics in the world is wrong
1243 [#7]yes, he is good but saying "he's the goat" and "has the best mechanics in the world" is objectively stupid
No one is saying he is the GOAT tho other than maybe baiters
kamisavitar [#10]Primmie carrying 3 dead players nd making it in Champs is a big enough achievement to prove himself
again he is a game changer, but people are overrating him into oblivion
1243 [#8]again, he is a game changer i don't deny that, but what did he do in champs? saying he has the best mechanics in the world is wrong
What do you want him to do tho
Had to carry Governor and the Talon players
Had 1.15 rating while his entire team went below 1
1243 [#8]again, he is a game changer i don't deny that, but what did he do in champs? saying he has the best mechanics in the world is wrong
Individually he is #3 on statboard days the best ONE MAN can do
1243 [#8]again, he is a game changer i don't deny that, but what did he do in champs? saying he has the best mechanics in the world is wrong
no ones saying hes better than players like aspas, he has insane raw mechanical ability that gives him insane potential to be one of the best in the world
laifu [#16]no ones saying hes better than players like aspas, he has insane raw mechanical ability that gives him insane potential to be one of the best in the world
this. this. agreed. I concur. but people are overrating him like he's faker of valorant and that's just stupid
1243 [#12]again he is a game changer, but people are overrating him into oblivion
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
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.
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
cloudberry [#2]You don't need to be a pro player to prove your mechanics
in that case would you say flor has great mechanics
1243 [#17]this. this. agreed. I concur. but people are overrating him like he's faker of valorant and that's just stupid
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
1243 [#17]this. this. agreed. I concur. but people are overrating him like he's faker of valorant and that's just stupid
nobody is saying hes the best in the world except for maybe your ghost

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'
thenutoriousPRO [#22]in that case would you say flor has great mechanics
And they do. Despite what people on VLR think about flor, you can't say they're lacking in the mechanics department

his rating doesnt mean shit when he played 4 maps at champs and lost all of them 😹
it just means he's baiting/playing for kills

not baiting, he has the potential but he does not have the best mechanics in the game yet, prove it in tier 1 first
thenutoriousPRO [#22]in that case would you say flor has great mechanics
like to argue that flor has some of the best mouse control in the game
think everything else falls flat however and obviously, that doesnt define a great player

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.
1243 [#32]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
cloudberry [#37]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
cloudberry [#37]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
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

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

Well yes technically they have better mechanics in terms of aim, but not util usage and mobility which are also part or mechanics
Nachtel [#45]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?

is this supposed to be impressive (against prx btw)
tiAsunNS [#52]I mean primmie became a pro right before playoffs and helped them qual so clearly he's doing something right
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.
jawn [#55]he has had one of the most impactful and impressive debuts in VCT history i don't want to hear the overrated talks
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.
Yuniee44 [#59]anyone can make great montages.
wow what a great argument, surely it makes sense to have an ascendant go up against pro players
1243 [#46]so primmie doesn't have the best mechanics ITW?
He has the best aim mechanics out of all T1 pros'
Not the best movement mechanics or agent util mechanics
Nachtel [#62]He has the best aim mechanics out of all T1 pros'
Not the best movement mechanics or agent util mechanics
what has he done to deserve that title? show me one instance of pure cracked raw aim from primmie in a pro setting where he absolutely has an insane flick or a tranfer.
1243 [#46]so primmie doesn't have the best mechanics ITW?
actually he literally have best reaction time than others. Apac rank players normally have better mechanics. his micro is good but macro is bad. like talon is English comm roster. he barely speak and understand English
hehe444 [#64]actually he literally have best reaction time than others. Apac rank players normally have better mechanics. his micro is good but macro is bad. like talon is English comm roster. he barely speak and understand English
sure, prove it? show me a clip of absolute raw aim flick, transfer from primmie in tier 1 val
1243 [#63]what has he done to deserve that title? show me one instance of pure cracked raw aim from primmie in a pro setting where he absolutely has an insane flick or a tranfer.
I dont know but most of the primmie's kills in pro matches he get when observer either observing other or enemy's pov. he doesn't have highlights like others but kill banner in upper side show he got insta 2, 3 kills some times
1243 [#63]what has he done to deserve that title? show me one instance of pure cracked raw aim from primmie in a pro setting where he absolutely has an insane flick or a tranfer.
The way he aims, you don't need to see it be used against pros to know that it's better than any pro you've ever spectated if you analyze it objectively
He has almost perfect tracking on ridiculously high sens, while also pulling off ridiculous wide-flicks and micro-flicks
His range of motion + mouse control makes him not just better than everyone I've ever seen, but also displays a level of consistency that will cement him in that spot for years to come, or until someone appears that exhibits the same or better traits.
1243 [#65]sure, prove it? show me a clip of absolute raw aim flick, transfer from primmie in tier 1 val

Apac ranked has best mechanic players. don't need to watch t1 video to see it. just videos recommend in you tube

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.

doesn't prove shit, apac ranked comparisons to tier 1 val
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...
1243 [#41]he played 85 rounds??? against prx he went 22-29 had 0.84 rating and has won them one match against the eternal chokers, what in the best mechanics in the world

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

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

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
jawn [#55]he has had one of the most impactful and impressive debuts in VCT history i don't want to hear the overrated talks
"impressive and impactful debuts" beat team secret and then proceeded to lose 8 maps in a row, how the fuck is him joining the team impactful? they didnt win shit

x_knowitall39_x [#94]"impressive and impactful debuts" beat team secret and then proceeded to lose 8 maps in a row, how the fuck is him joining the team impactful? they didnt win shit
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
1243 [#78]cant wait for him and his team to flop next year, and the glazers to eat their own words
That not how it work, they glazer player not team broski
jawn [#96]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
laifu [#79]it makes sense for primmie to be constantly producing fragmovies every other week while being number 1 in APAC ranked also watch

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.
1243 [#50]???? how do you even compare montages, what difference does it make to have better montages, if you can't comprehend arguments don't argue.
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
1243 [#53]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

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.

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.
