They can still be friends with him and he can bring good vibes outside the game if he's benched but if he can't hype them during the games, what's the point of keeping him in roster?

He didn't want to igl in G2 anymore

do you prefer to play with bots or good players?

No matter how you put it his MAIN purpose as hypeman was to get the mood up when they're actually playing. But looking at them he didnt have much success on that.

Yeah it's of course unreasonable when people equivocate the ratings of players with very different amounts of space within their rosters. Arguably YEKINDAR might not even be better than JACKZ at all since the other aspects of being a supportive player understanding where to position yourself relative to the playmakers, clearing and holding their off angles instinctively etc, having the patience to do so, they are also developable skills on top of knowledge and experience playing anchor for specific spots. He would almost certainly post stronger individual stats but may tank the teams stats negatively

Yekindar would probably work in a team with NiKo, hunter and m0NESY. You saw what yekindar did in liquid, he made elige a top 5/10 player again and helped oSea get confident while not making naf a bot support. He did that by taking on die hard support entry roles on t side with close to no support flashes etc as he got in VP and did it only with elige behind him set to trade him which helped elige find his prime liquid form. That scenario would probably be the case in a yekindar G2. Yekindar doing hard entry with NiKo behind him and with a pretty passive igl that reacts to yekindars information while Hunter tries to find the gaps on the lurk. A yekindar+NiKo tandem would give room for both m0NESY and hunter on the other ends of the map with a passive igl to throw the flashes as an old school igl would do. Only problem I se with a yekindar g2 would be the igl… Tabsen or an aggressive igl would not work for example so my guess is that someone like boombl4 or hooxie will be the best option

you do, you took the time to respond kek

Youre a faceit 8 mate. How TF some rando hltv teen who's never played on a team wants to talk down about what are and are not roles. Since you're new to tactical CS lemme educate you son. In a team exec, when you force one player to run through smoke to ideally take an angle on grill, that entry is what we call a bitch role. When you play an extremity anchor which is bombarded with util and offers few effective sightlines that is a bitch role. When you play a passive flank lurk not to make aggressive picks or to take map control, but only to retain it that's a bitch role. There are plenty of defined bitch roles. B mirage anchor is the most obvious and clearcut bitch role just about. On T side they vary from team to team based on overall team playstyle. E.g. on G2 NiKos Banana lurk is a high impact position where he is a playmaker for the team, he has freedom and flexibility to aggress or to sometimes slow it down and play more passively. Because G2 is also more willing to burn utility and early round aggression to assume control NiKo is allocated more resources to make more impact. The priority is to get NiKo into a deep position where the team can play off of his conscious decisions. That is a star role. On a more methodical and slow paced team banana can be a bitch role position. Especially if it's not a priority for the teams philosophy of map control. If said lurk has to push through util with potentially only one other supporting player and is left in a very passive lurk to keep top banana control in the teams default thats a bitch role instead. When you learn more about CS one day you can also understand.

nvm I misunderstood your point bro you were replying to a guy saying other players playing 'bitch roles' put up superior statlines, I see now your point is that the nature of the 'bitch role' varies from team to team and thereby the degree to which it can negatively affect your rating also varies. Not that the concept of a 'bitch role' does not exist On T side I agree this is true, and on ct it is also somewhat true depending on how actively the rotator players want to play for info My bad Serbian mens

Hence why I pointed to more individualistic flaws to his game. The way he actively plays anchor spots is unusually risky and predictable. Watch any dust demo of G2 this year. On a standard round ct setup Jackz is going to end up sitting close double boxes more than half the rounds. If t side don't show heavy tunnels aggression it becomes extremely obvious where Jackz will be holding, you see so many teams make the read asap and they start punishing his positioning over and over. If t play a quite early round default they just start drypeeking tunnels and preaim close boxes every time its almost absurd Sure, many of the slower and silly looking errors, particularly timing errors can be faulted to a language barrier. But it's also clear he just makes alot of questionable decisions ingame off his own accord

.8 impact is never good at inferno, he is complete dogshit. niko has literally a whole .5 impact better than him. niko is carrying g2 inferno as hard as he can every time. i wish jackz was half as good as you dickriders make him out to be, that way g2 would prolly win some trophies

Right my bad I was a lil bit confused at first:)) the translation part

0.96 rating doesn't count as a good rating I love olof but it is what is

my point is -JackZ + yekindar would have been enough

Where did i said i solely blame jackz? Lol He is part of the problem he should be kicked No need for 0.9 bot
