His archetype of player is genuinely so useful, so few selfless duelists nowadays, especially those who are afraid of non duelist roles, and who are willing to do the dirty work. Even now we see him picking up primary duelist on a team that has the best initiator in the world (arguably) on sage, I genuinely feel bad for the man. Forced to play second fiddle for yay for years, only to be put in the spotlight the moment the team turns dysfunctional and forgets how to support its duelists. I don't know if he is actually washed, but even if he is he doesn't deserve whats happening to him and Ethan ngl.
Anyways boot that fraud Tuyz for forcing his igl to play duelist and get Victor some duolingo lessons asap idnc if its a straight downgrade

Do you understand that optic was all about yay and fns?
Without them these guys would be mid and it's showing now. Just look at the other players of optic where they are and how they are performing. You could have replaced victor with any other above average duelist in NA and it wouldn't have made a huge impact on their performance. Optic was always all about yay and fns. It's just the truth. Oh and marved did have a few good series too.
You're actually lost
Victor was THE entry duelist they needed, yay spent most of his time on Chamber holding flanks or waiting for peeks. That simply doesn't work if Victor and Crashies can't get them into site.
FNS had reads on literally every other team for years, was only matched in midrounding by saadhak, and knew how to use all of the pieces on the team.
marved was also the best controller in the world for a time, and top 3 for most of his career.
Optic was the best team Valorant has ever seen because everyone had their role and executed on a player for player basis than anyone else
And I'm trying to say that victor isn't special or a star player like yay or fns. He could have been easily replaced by an above average duelist and optic would have still been a great team. And now that nrg doesn't have a star player like yay, people are going after him since the duelists are star players in top teams and he is just an average or above average duelist.
yes as in dive duellists should be selfless (eg you dash in and your sole purpose is to gather extra info and to distract) any kills are a bonus
idr know ab victor, I think at this point his skill would be at a level which would suit a team like c9 or eg, not really on a superteam, even if he does go for more flashy plays
