Florescent is not unfairly hyped

#1

If Flor was a male player with a 1.5kd in top radiant ranked and posting montages of her aim like that, every single person would want her in tier 1
Primmie had so much hype of being a ranked demon before joining talon
Aspas got hype due to being a ranked demon
So why’s flor the exception? It’s like she faces misogyny and transphobia at the same time

she doesn't have 1.5kd in top radiant + most players don't get hyped until they play in tier 2 or tier 1, regardless of their ranked performance. there's very few exceptions like pr0mmie and he's overrated as fuck. I do agree transphobia plays a part in it but she doesn't deserve to be hyped up for tier 1

People absolutely get hyped off their ranked performance, that’s how most of the superstars in valorant got into tier 1 in the first place
And wdym she doesn’t have a 1.5kd in ranked, I swear she does?

no? the majority of players went from tier 2 to tier 1, going from ranked to tier 1 is uncommon
also I checked and yeah she does have a 1.5 kd in radiant, I probably misremembered. that's pretty impressive but still, she needs to prove herself in tier 2

Primmmie, demon1 prime examples.
Just be good enough to get picked up. Simple as that.

demon1 didn't get picked up from ranked + a few players being picked up from ranked and turning out to be good doesn't suddenly mean every top ranked player is worthy of a tier 1 spot

Exactly people gotta stop with this empowerment shit and making him/her/they or whatever it is equivalent to a tier 1 player. The men league is way above it. If the hype is as good as it says , it wouldve been seen in the tier 2 but no, instead went towards GC. Now this ranting is going on to put flor in tier 1 scene. I mean are you guys crazy or what.

And stop comparing flor with primmie, he is a ranked demon and has proved himself in tier 1 , maybe not so consistent but still a very good and effective player. So ffs stop.

Because Poppin has better ranked achievements while playing Sova and you never heard of anybody gassing him up to this extent

If Flor was a male player

If?

male isn't a term denoting an emotion based perception of self

You are perfectly aware that flor is male.

Pippin has ranked achievements but he has a 1.2kd in ranked and his aim isn’t as good

he's rank 1 multiple times with multiple accounts top 10, while barely touching duelists

He also unironically has better competitive achievements 💀💀💀

He wins more than flor but that’s doesn’t matter, curry has been too 1 more than demon1 or tenz
Kd/ACS shows individual skill more than winrate, and individual skill is what we are discussing

the entire argument presented in the original post is that flor being good in ranked makes flor a t1 worthy player, (literally compared flor to primmie)

But there are players like Poppin who are just as good if not better in ranked, who also have better competitive achievements, who nobody considers t1 worthy

Only reason people think flor is t1 worthy is because flor farms shitty t4 players which is straight delusion.

flor has higher win rates and WAY higher k/d
p0ppin just plays a lot more ranked than flor these days

also im guessing you mean comp achievements by qualling to tier 2, even tho stage 3 is insanely weak competition for obvious reasons

flor has higher win rates and WAY higher k/d

thats easier to do if you play virtually exclusively duelist.

insanely weak competition for obvious reasons

SR (2x GC champs) wouldn't make it past that 'insanely weak' competition if history tells us anything

I have a friend that plays collegiate on a no-name team

He used to scrim SR and said that if they played in a match he's confident he'd win

This was over a year ago tho

she definitely should not be hyped up as a tier 1 prospect but she should be encouraged to at least dip into t2 at one point
