IGL deficiency
 | 
Other XyleneCobalt 
There's a serious lack of good IGLs out there right now. Who can you definitively say is a good IGL other than karrigan, jame, and cadian? So many teams need one and there's not enough to go around.

Every time I see you comment something it gets increasingly retarded each time and its truly amazing I am also not defending Aleksi, he has been heading downwards since mid/late 2021 and there's 0 reason to ignore that, there's just also 0 reason to spit on him and him alone for the failings of other players

Is Jame really that good IGL? Like their map pool is terrible.

I feel like Jame could make any decent team very competetive but his teams can never win tournamnets more than every once in a while
2023-04-01 17:35
I'd put map pool down to coaching and analysts tbh. What I look for is mid rounds, team cohesion, and stacks.

karrigan, jame, cadian, hooxi, snappi, jerry only good IGLs currently, 2 russian and 4 danish only 2 "upcoming" IGLs with promise are siuhy and mynio mynio is a highly established Polish IGL though, so it's more just siuhy.

Chopper is just ok, he's a good individual player but feel like his calling is very inconsistent and strongly relies on if his teammates are playing well or not. He's great at utilizing his teammates well but only if they are ready to go crazy. His base teamplay is just alright. it's the same thing with tabsen, good individual player but if his players aren't feeling the game that day it all falls apart.

I'm not blaming them. Igl does the most work in terms of demo watching and preparation, has to be switched on at all times and have a plan ready, and gets shat on the most by the community Who the fuck would want to do all of this when you can just grind fpl, shoot well, and get praise by redditors

yeah it's clearly a hard ass job if so few people can do it
2023-04-01 17:35
+1 and sometimes igls are ranked based on team results when thats sometimes not even the big factor to make a decision if he infact is a good caller. sometimes the roster is just bad, or inexpirenced, or needs too much micro managing making the igl not focus enough on his own game , or any other shit....
2023-04-01 18:00
> Igl does the most work in terms of demo watching and preparation Huh? That's what analyst should do, not IGL, not even coach.

Big are bound to the german scene which don't have a big talent pool, they're already established the best 5 players available. And they're just not good enough to go deep in tourneys, you could probably put Karrigan in there and he'd do better but still not be enough

Why everyone consider jame to be good igl? Yeah, he definetley mid and biggest + is that he doesn`t downfragging, but it`s like aleksi, why people consider him to be at least tier1 igl?

In my opinion IGL's get too much blame for a teams overall performance. Every team has analysts and coaches now so teams should come into a match with a good game plan and calls for rotations need to be based on info from lurkers/anchors. Tldr the whole team is responsible for strategy not just the IGL.

I agree. Strats are on the coach. Mid round calls and reading the other IGL is on the IGL.

I'd say Jerry & Snappi are definitely good, and HooXi, dexter, gla1ve & tabseN are decent. There are some other IGLs that are okay too, but I agree with your premise that there are too many top teams that have a mediocre or even bad IGL: electroNic, apEX, nafany & arT all shouldn't be leading their respective teams, and I believe they are actively holding their teams back by doing so.
