Worst Takeaways From NA Ascension

#1

Oxy Top 5 Duelist. No, just no. His team revolves around setting him up and even then he's g2's second best duelist. Look at g2 match history, he is either top or bottom frag of the lobby and he doesn't show up when the team needs he to step up. Basically he is incredibly inconsistent and koala, tex, corey, babybay, bdog all ahead of him because they are CONSISTENT.
Oxygen is good. SKUBA is good. Oxygen is incredibly mediocre. Theyre 2 wins come from quite literally the worst performance Faze and SR has had in years. And even then skuba still comes out looking like the only good part of this team 70% of the time. if they were in group B, they'd stand no chance making top 4
G2 is a top 3 team. I'll admit I underrated G2 at the start and overrated SR and Faze, however after TSM's roster change, they've solidified themselves as a top 3 team along with Guard and M80. With TT roster moves as well I'd be willing to put them as a better dark horse pick over G2 as well

Going purely by eye test, shahzam’s mechanics have gotten SIGNIFICANTLY worse when compared to 2021

I agree, but I genuinely believe his IGLing has gotten better, if given better pieces he could be around the same level as dephh with the right coaching support

oxy had 1 really bad week. The whole of g2 did.
his stats are only fucked because of that.
hes a duellist that can actually play both raze and jett and should be ranked highly because of that.

my take is that dicey's stock was so over inflated due to the chamber meta and hes infact not a very good sentinel or even duelist

Imma be real, he was the reason they almost lost to break thru week 2, and on the duelist who can play raze and jett being rare, that narrative is only a thing because of Cryo. All other duelists in NA Ascension can play raze and jett, Oxy isn't unique in this quality

tenz, cryo , yay t1 example.

You will never see babybay ,tex or bdog on raze because they arent as comfortable flexing onto raze.

Tenz has historically been able to play raze, just now they have zekken who was a top 7 raze last year, I will give you yay tho

tenz raze has always been passable at best.
He was way better at reyna/jett during his prime, so he would often default to them two.

alot of sentinels losses were on split, where having a raze would have been good but neither he or shaz could play it well.

Still too much focus on fast plays and just winning aim duels. The first week after LockIn was such a shock in level and play styles

idk I genuinely believe teams like Guard, M80 and TSM could do decent in the partnered league
