Partially exalts fault tbh, but also optic yay on chamber didn't really need to entry (even though his first engagements were very high). Duelists job is to entry/create space so the team can follow up on kills (having kills are nice when you entry but it's mainly the teams job to trade out the entrying duelist). I think yay wasn't also playing his best you could tell because he overheated a lot and just made some very bad plays, but I think that exalt really can't igl well.

Idk ab champs contender, Yays sort of having an agent identity crisis. Dude has the aim to be absolutely great, but hes not a hard entry like Zekken or Demon1 or Aspas. Yays impact came from the fact that he can win his duels and get out of dodge for free on defense and on offense he can do his own thing and find his own duals and win them instead of having to play a role the whole team depends on him for. Chamber was great because he could take any dual he wanted penalty free and on attack he could go with the team if he wanted or go take a dual somewhere else on the map and not make it a 4v5 instantly because he can get out. No agent atm offers him that versatility of being able to have a get out of jail free card as well as being not essential to most attack strategies and being in the meta comps like Chamber was. Also like while the IGL is important, I think Yay will need to do a lot of work this offseason to either work on becoming that entry jett/raze player, or learn how to take the duals that make him so good on an agent that doesnt have a get out of jail free card.
