Prejudice against Cryo?

im an open minded thinker escaping the matrix everyday and smth that I just noticed that I also took part in was the absolute belief that Zekken > Cryo even though Cryo is statistically brings the same shit Zekken does. Is it because Cryo was better last year on Chamber so now we think hes washed?

Both overrated 🧠

100ts had a roster with Will that did pretty damn well at champs in 22. The addition of cryo seemed to make them worse. Is that actually what happened probably not. What people see is that the team seemed better without him.

I think the edge that zekken has over Cryo is his flexibility.
Zekken has the ability to play multiple agent roles, team roles and a deeper agent pool, which he has shown throughout his career already.
That edge was shown in full display during americas last year where we would often see an awkward cryo raze map etc.

Cryo is one trick jett that’s it

cryo cant even entry ONCE for his team lmao zekken clears him anyday anytime

He was really good but I think he stopped being good after he lost the rank demon in him. Maybe he got complacent since he joined a big org. Who knows. If he sucks again this VCT then I'll believe that he's fully washed.

He op peeks.

FK / FD doesn’t necessarily mean you’re playing entry.

Pretty sure yay had higher fk than Victor but Victor was the entry.

Cryo brings a lot of value by being a top tier op.
Zekken plays more of an entry style / Rifler

The best teams have both. That’s why xset was good when they both played on it.

Edit: this was supposed to be a reply to #10

I’d say Zekken and Cryo are both fantastic is their own ways. However, I think Zekken is a lot better suited for most teams for a few reasons. For one, although Cryo is arguably a better Jett player and oper than Zekken, the fact that Zekken is able to play Jett and Raze (with his Raze being at least top 3 in NA), he just adds a lot more value due to the flexibility. This ties to the second reason which is just pure flexibility beyond duelists. Zekken has a large agent pool making him incredibly valuable when metas shift. I think Cryo has a lot more to prove in this regard.

it's mostly just sen fans being stupid as usual and acting like their players are the second coming of jesus. I'd say zekken is better in terms flexibility but cryo is a better jett/chamber and oper. (oh the guy above me basically said the same thing 🗿)

cryo cannot play raze for shit. zekken is just as good on jett as cryo, so it’s kind of easy argument to say zekken is by far a better overall duelist. zekken doesn’t play chamber so his performance on that doesn’t apply.

cryo's playstyle is significantly less team oriented than zekken (he's more passive and therefore demands more resources while also not taking as much space for his team to play off of)

cryo would need to have better stats than zekken for him to be an equally impactful player, which doesn't mean his style is "bad" or "wrong", it just isn't a solution to 100t's issues at the moment which is an overall lack of aggression and decisiveness. chamber fit cryo incredibly well because it allows him to leverage his incredible mechanics and oping without the additional burden of playing as a hard entry the way a duelist agent does.

Oxy clears both

not really tryna put out my opinion on who>who in value, but what statistics are you talking about????? all time? like?
