Hot take on yay

#1

I think hell be significantly worse on C9. FNS was like 99% Of the Reason why he was a demon. Dont get me wrong im not discrediting yay in any way. He would shit on me 100 out of 100 times, but yay without FNS is like a Car without a Driver.
Goofy comparison but i dont care.

Your opinion?

Obviously 99% was a exaggarational rhetoric use of language but FNS build Optic solely around yay. For example watch Optic vs Team Liquid this Champs on map Ascent. Every round was planned for yay.

The first statement can't be concluded as no one knows how well C9 yay will fare compared to Optic yay, the second one however can be argued for FNS as Optic made more finals than C9 and won masters.

like setups and plan game understanding have nothing do with how player frags if you think c9 core is fundamentally better than optic core you are probably not right here
they make very less mistakes victor probably doesnt frag but yay said he believes victor is best entry he does his job pretty well to make space for team

No. Yay is good because he always puts himself in favorable fights, and has godly aim. FNS has practically nothing to do with yay's decision making and skill, therefore, your statement lies false

You mean to say that FNS' calling and setups had nothing to do with the duels yay takes and wins? Stupidest thing I've read today. Sure it has nothing to do with his skill but yay still relies on the calls and setups of his team to take those fights. Ever stopped to consider he's in favourable fights because it's designed that way, not because he happened to do it. Brainlessness

Go back through what i wrote and point out to me the bit where i said he's not going to get set up on C9. You're arguing a completely different point. Of course he's going to get set up by his teammates. I'm talking about this idiot neglecting the importance of an IGL calling setups for him.

#30

vroonski

Frags

elaborate on how FNS calling has anything to do with yay taking fights because thats not what an igl does. IGLs call rotates, executes and do other server work but they don't control a player's intuitiveness on whether to fight or not. And those setups are designed in the server so its not fns that creates them, but the whole team. I think you need to understand how a team works before talking. Brainlessness

this is the basics of pro play and every team does this. this isnt fns's job but the entire team's. its ok if you dont know how pro play works but at least have some shame in acting like you understand how teams function

Good point but still, Vanity is a good igl and with the chemistry of Chaos boys ( Vanity-Leaf-Xeppaa-McE) and the addition of Zellsis, Yay surely still give good performance. Maybe a bit decline with the nerf on chamber if it happens soon

They setup him up to make plays and get kills so it makes sense he won’t be as impactful if he doesn’t get the same kind of support, still a really good player tho.

You guys are literally mentally retarded. Yay will literally not change, he will still hold common entry points angles with his OP. Its not that hard to tell Yay to go to long and post up on an angle. Im not saying FNS didnt relieve pressure of Yay but to think it will dramatically change because FNS dont tell him what to do anymore is just painfully stupid.

If this is bc of the smeag tourney it's a shit take. Yay earned his name El Diablo before he was on NV. People act like yay was a robot that FNS controlled. If you are completely ignorant on how the game is played then I guess that's a reasonable take

Okay, but that doesn't explain your conclusion of "I think hell be significantly worse on C9. FNS was like 99% Of the Reason why he was a demon" I think you are miss representing/over exaggerating your own point here. It feels very baity the way you worded it.

yay's talent is amplified 100x more when FNS allows him to always take the peek and the kill
he allows his teammates, crashies or victor or both to give him all of their util for a few kills and they will gladly take the bait.
if c9 doesn't allow yay to do this, he will not frag anywhere near where he did on optic and envy

yay was a beast on andbox too. That's the reason envy brought him in. If fns's setups were so good, then why didn't envy before yay's arrival succeed? If you listened to optic's comms, yay was the one asking his team for util in certain places to get the advantage he needs in first duels.
