yeah because he was clearly not an insane sentinel, in fact after champs i remember everyone was saying how hard kiles got carried.

The difference is that C0M was clearly not carried, he had insane recognizable impact. He had the second highest clutch rate at champs behing ethan, maintained above a 1.0 rating the whole tournament only falling behing rating wise to the literal superstars

His utility is also clearly is really fucking good and thought out

Top three scan initiator in the world cope

Cloud??? lol not even gonna say anything here
Shao was completely mid through all of 2023

Leo better initiator and better aim but c0m better Sova, already been through this countless times during champs so not gonna argue anymore, peace ✌️

Honestly I feel like we have on average the best recon inits
EMEA has shao and leo but other than that not much else, pacific has good ones too but they aren’t standout like these guys are

I love the Americas

Shao no sova but still great.

EMEA
Leo BITW
Cloud elite imo
Enzo very good

APAC/China
Biank Very good maybe even elite
Zest very good
izu looks promising
Xeta if he plays sova like he used to will be elite too imo

But the amount of good initators we have in Americas is truly insane tho both depth wise and peak talent.

Forgot about cloud, he is very good as well
and yeah, zest biank for sure
