this guy might be the best valorant opper wtf
It's not about your aim getting worse. His point is if youre an above average player in a below average region, you'd shine and look better.
it's the same philosophy of an attractive person looking more attractive when with someone less attractive.
also he didn't mention aim. I might be a bit confused, but unless someone edited a message, or I misread. Who mentioned peoples aim being worse at higher levels, or insinuated it?
His flicks will stay the same, but he wont be able to get away with half the stuff he gets away with. Was watching him earlier, and he jsut repeeks the same shit, and doesn't get punished for it. dude was against plats and diamonds, and was just vibing. In high imm/rad, he'd get punished for those mistakes.
I think that's his point.
Bro, all he did was compare him to Mwzera. Mwzera is a standout player in a weaker region. KennyS looks amazing because he's getting away with dumbshit that shouldn't work above Imm.
Nobody is saying he's bad. They're just saying we can't judge how he will be on the game, as all of his games are against diamonds and plats.
He's playing against weaker enemies, so we can't get an accurate gauge on how good he really is.
past his prime, sure. Scream was also past his prime, having a constant falloff post 2016. Shaz was past his prime, not achieving much on cs. Hell, every cs player that moved, who was in the scene for more than 5 years, were past their prime. Only cs players who swapped are the 17-21yr olds, who haven't reached their prime yet.
Prime means nothing in val, as their prime in CS was different to Val. Hell, scream was dogshit on GL, and was nothing special for a solid 4 years until he retired. Yet currently he's regarded as one of the best riflers in the game right now.
Also KennyS prime was on Titan, where he'd carry every single game. His past few years hold nothing to his titan/envy days. 2014-2015 kennyS was a monster that nobody will ever beat. It's why he's still regarded as the best AWPer in cs history. Even after the awp nerf, and his cooling down. He still competed at t1 level, for 6 years. Post prime competing for 6 years. He'd be fine competing against anyone in this game. If he transitioned, he'd just need to adjust and would 1000% be more consistant that other opers at pro level.
tbh even then, Ethan was in a huge slump, just like nitro. Only player who swapped while not being completely mediocre, was Jamppi. Dude went to ence, did well, then was taken off primary awp for Allu, and then had to rifle. Even then, he was nothing special, but wasnt washed, or in a slump. If not for his ban, he'd probably still be on Ence right now.
Ethan was the top competing person who could stay in t1 out of all that moved tho.
