Why are duelists always the best players?

I feel like when talking about really good players duelists are the role that is talked about the most and I was wondering if it was because duelists are usually better players than the other roles or because they frag out more people think they are really good?

flashy gameplay=holy shit goatmaxxing wth how do you hit that

same gameplay just not flashy=meh

cus that's what these kids liked

I mean if you look into the gameplay it is not always like that
Highlights tho for sure
It's like defenders in Football
When was the last time you saw a defender's highlight or edit even though they do most of the work

Yes they are flashy but frankly it takes a lot more raw talent to be a good duelist than a good ini/controller, when it comes to players that are already of a pro caliber.

Most of these guys can learn to master utility, coordination, optimal timing, etc. but a duelist has to make very quick decisions and win more uncomfortable duels to stand out.

realstically the duelist's role is to entry site and create space, but because meta duelists have an escape ability or (like jett dash) they are set up by their teammates to take more duels because they are untradable. they also have a lot more self-suffcient util for them to frag out

more duels = more kills = people think theyre better
also it feeds into the steryotypes of instalock reynas and jetts in ranked that usually just frag out
