Best Controller Player 2023

#1

capital_d_colon

This year there wasn't as many high performing controller players compared to previous years.
The star controller players in 2022 were on lower performing teams, with a few of them failing to even make champs.

With the top teams:
a) Having their igl on the role (fnatic with boaster)
b) The controller player changing based on maps. (eg in 2023)
c) A low individual performance from their controller.

So who do you think was the best controller player of 2023?

Me personally, I think it's between s0m/mako/mindfreak.

s0m for me. Played well, and way better than expectations for his first year in a substantial t1 team.

Mako went unnoticed by many but still maintained his class, Mindfreak seems to not get the praise he deserves, s0m was VERY stable and filled Marved's shoes well and sometimes had better performances being a more passive controller.

I think it's between s0m and mindfreak, s0m was by far the best player on NRG, mindfreak was insanely consistent. Mako was good as always and Tuyz was good too, even though many will remember him as a weak link in LOUD, but imho s0m and mindfreak were a tier above anybody else

I have to say mako even though I feel like he's been carrying drx less recently (he still has the best omen paranoia usage out of anyone in the game though, his teammates always get kills off them)

I guess you don't watch mako playing then. You're probably the guy who looks at the stats after the game.

Yep qualifying and clearing groups in all of the international tournaments, including top 4 and top 6 at lockin and champions is pretty mediocre, I'm hoping they do better next year.
