Thoughts on Zekken as a duelist

#1

Camden

For the debate on best duelist I personally rate Aspas, kangkang, and T3xture ahead of Zekken. As a pure duelist I believe the consistancy between jett and raze is better on aspas, kangkang, and t3xture. KangKang and Aspas has shown their neon and it is also very good. T3xture hasnt shown his neon but neon shares similiar maps with raze. Also i believe that aspas, kangkang, and t3xtures OP is much better than zekkens. I find zekkens jett top tier still but not ahead of these 3. I was a really big fan of his when he was a Raze and Sova main. Maybe with sacys potential departure he can pick up sova again.

Kangkang receny bias goes so hard texture and Aspas is understandable

Zekken is #1 raze in the world for me personally and his Jett is understandably not the best considering its his rookie year as a primary duelist him playing Jett on Xset doesn’t really count as it was during chamber meta so he didn’t have to op or anything Cryo did

kangkang has historically been very good at the duelist role even going back to last champs and tokyo, but yes this year champs definitely catapulted him into the discussion for me because i think being a title holder is important or else i would talk about sayf, saya and others

Well yeah if your gonna look at “current form” ofc your gonna have Zmjjkk in your top3 but he wasn’t even the best player on edg until the grand final chichoo and smoggy were better in every single match leading up until

Zekken also played better than him the entirety of champs #1 ACS playoffs and only not #1 entire tournament bc of the first gen g game

Well if you say that then Derke wasnt even fnatics best player in tokyo and kangkang was higher rated than him at that event

also my main arguement is zekkens consistancy between jett and raze/neon. Zekken is an amazing raze and neon. The main thing im pointing out is his jett and his OP. His jett rating this tourney was very up and down

I don’t know what tournament you watched his Jett was literally fine every single time he played it literally except the first game he played against Gen g

He was actually very consistent after that game lol so this up and down thing is just nonsense

And yeah ZmjjKK played an amazing tournament at Tokyo his best tournament so far and I hope you realize edg plays to setup Zmjjkk for every fight he takes while Derke is a system duelist lmao

Oh i guess his rating was so bad against GenG that his overall jett rating was negative for the tournament i think he only played 4 times the whole tournament. we can look at his jett stats from stage 1 to stage 2. He played better on Jett in stage 2

Derke is statistically the best duelist at Champs if we’re talking current form

one can be exceptional at an agent and can be still be named the goat duelist. look at demon1 even though i dont think he was the best duelist he was still in the convo.

i would not call him the goat duelist. maybe goat jett. jawgemo played the counterpart for him. You saw how he played this year as the pure duelist

Sen's performace is largely determined by the performance of zekken,he must be one of the best duelist so they can be mardrid champion and top4 in champs.

He’s one of the best duelist in the world, the best raze in the world

He’s def in the debate for the best with aspas, t3xture and kangkang
