Can't wait for them to lose and cry "We couldn't practice with our igl, they were being gatekeeped". Overhyped shit
Demon1 >= Zekken
(Different playstyle but both are really great)
Ethan (aim, gamesense) > Johnqt (aim, gamesense)
Ethan (igl) < Johnqt (igl)
Marved > TenZ
Crashies > Sacy
Victor >= Zellsis
(Victor can flex + play Duelist really good (Neon or Jett in the past, Raze)
==> both teams look good on paper (NRG slightly better imo), but NRG need to prove themselves and Sentinels already showed how good they can be
Zekken looks good too tho! The only reason why I think they’re somehow equal is because Zekken can especially play Raze and can dive the bombsites in a way Demon1 couldn’t with Jett. I know Demon1 can also play Brimstone/ Astra in some occasions but those aren’t the aggressive roles that you try to compare. (That’s why NRG need Demon1 and Victor or EG needed Demon1 and Jawgemo, Zekken can play both Jett and Raze really good)
thats exactly why I'm saying they can't be directly compared. Demon1 plays Jett, Brim, Astra, and Chamber whereas Zekken plays Jett and Raze exclusively now, the only comparison that exists between the two is their Jett in which again Demon1 looks way better on. When NRG need a Raze, Victor will be on it, but that doesn't mean Zekken is somehow equal to Demon1 because of this no? You're making this into a "who's the better duelist" argument instead of "who's the better player", like is Demon1 >= Leaf also true because Leaf can play Raze?
From your perspective that’s completely true! That’s why I put „>=„ instead of „=„. I never thought Demon1 is only as good as Zekken on Jett, but I took the other Duelist Agents into consideration and comparison. If you only compare them on Jett, which I thought wouldn’t be right, Demon1 wins. But because they play in different variety of Duelists I put „=„ (didn’t find „≈“ on the keyboard lol) to show that you can’t really exactly compare them. If this lead to misunderstandings, I apologise.
