Why do people think he's ass? Whenever I watched G2 matches, he always had a significant presence in the server. He was better than OXY for sure. He was definitely top 5

He was NOT top 5 but he was definitely an important piece of that G2 puzzle
You don't win games against good teams if one of your player is being a bum and G2 did win plenty of games against good teams.
He was enough for games where the stakes weren't that high, but got diffed when star power really mattered, in big games.
In other words, he was enough until he wasn't.

I mean it's not an icy problem and more of a G2 "problem"
G2 play theoretical valorant
The exact opposite of the eye test
G2 the type of team to use quadratic equations in real life

Nah, he was good at making space, being agro. Did what leaf couldn't during the raze meta, which is why they chose to sign him.

As the user you replied to said, he just didn't have high enough peaks in high stakes games. Jawg is an immediate upgrade because he has shown to have the same skill set, but with more consistency, a broader agent pool, and greater highs.

Replace OXY with Icy on C9 last season and C9 might not even win a map. What are you smoking?

The thing with Icy is that he will do the right thing and exactly what the team wants him to do no matter the situation. Comparing him to duelists like Jawg or Oxy, they know when to use their instinct to take risks and their skill is good enough to capitalize on those risks which Icy doesn't have in his play.

He is very technical in taking duels

True...
Oxy hasn't won anything yet so it's unfair to compare him with Icy

It's because people expect duelists to frag even though that's not really their role at all

people who think icy is ass are tweaking out. he helped push G2 to better results. its just that the biggest stage you need someone with more experience and firepower since he gets outclassed by duelists like aspas. hes pretty good and can def be a contender in the future for top duelists NA

For me it was bc they kicked Net who wasnt bad for an unproved rookie, who played okay, but i think they would have had similar success with Net on the roster
And everyone knew they wanted Jawg last year and only got Icy as a stop gap

I will never understand people with icy cope. he was undeniably bad. crazily enough its the same people who also flipped to saying qck was good the second he was dropped, along with the same people that said monyet was good the second he was dropped. It just makes no sense.

He was objectively subpar, easily bottom 3. and the success G2 found was in no way shape or form due to his performances.

Icy > Oxy is certainly a take. Icy is like a slightly better and more consistent Asuna.
