I think there are many good smoke players in NA, but whose the best, I think Nitro and Zombs are definitely up there, but who do you guys think is the best.

gMd brimstone lurk on breeze. jkjk. I actually do think gMd is very consistent though and he also has a very good agent pool. Prob not top 3 anymore but 100% underrated.

he is slept on for sure, hes played so many agents, switches roles from lurk to entry from map to map seamlessly, has IGL'd for the team before, etc.

Can we also have some respect for Jcstani. That dudes a legend for somehow carrying the IMT roster through like 50 roster changes. This dude is a solid foundation for any team. I think he's just gonna take a little to work with ABX but I feel like people are sleeping on this dude. He plays smokes really well and he can also play really anything.

Nitr0 is probably the best smoke player NA except he's never played Astra before nor does Astra suit his playstyle on omen at all. Maybe vanity for astra? Not sure.

Viper/Omen dual mains with occasional Astra ... from left to right based on (ACS):

VIPER: (230)Andersin, (219)Marved, (203)nitr0, (199)supamen, (177)zombs, (172)jcStani.

OMEN: (227)supamen, (220)Andersin, (219)nitr0, (217)jcStani, (214)Marved, (151)zombs.

Andersin has caught my eye recently in games DZ vs Faze and XSET as well as supamen who is one of the few underrated players in NA imho. Though as of now I'd put nitr0/Marved as top smokers in NA and supamen/jcStani need a bit more time to adapt to new teams. Andersin needs more games vs higher tear teams but he is def there among the best. Zombs is top1 world so nq gg.

Agree I just had a glimpse but I aimed at Omen/Viper duo mains as all six players above play regularly unlike Vanity(Omen/Astra) or Leviathan(Viper/Sova) etc. Surely Vanity is top smoker in NA but I'd go with either nitr0 or Marved atm. Also we might take Viper data lightly as not enough data for some players(no 10+ matches over 60d).

Wedid on viper was cool to watch cuz he would pull rounds by himself (for instance in XSET vs TSM when they were punching into T1) and xset's defense on A would pretty much depend on him taking all first contacts (both A main and mid splits) to help ayrin get value out of his KJ utility on site.
I love ur choices tho. Fun fact, Andersin was replaced by Wedid in the original roster that got picked up by XSET a couple weeks after that transfer.

Thanks and I've seen that from Wedid.... He is a smart controller player and a good person. I somewhat support NRG and wish them best but consistency in this game is quite a bitch, especially on a pro team level. DarkZero though been playing really well... that final vs Soniq and win over Faze were a blast from them. Hope they'll continue to improve as they've shown they could put a good fight. I am personally interested in seeing DZ, EZ5 and RISE improve, given all three already have solid squads.

omen - nitr0

viper - coin flip between jammyz and wippie
when NA used to run Brim - supamen , hon'ble mention subroza (i wonder if he stuck to the controller role)

on consistency, nitr0 and zombs all day! can't remember the last time they fall short!

It's always been between Zombs or Nitr0, but with Astra and Viper you can't say Zombs isn't number 1 over the psat 3 months. Nitr0 is still a better fragger but Zombs does more than anyone I've ever seen on AStra
