anyone that people glaze as the goat is gonna be overrated because theyre simply much higher rated than everyone else when their actual skill margin is not as big

Definitely not. It’s extremely difficult to flex at the highest level in valorant and doing it while also igling is literally a speed run to inconsistency. The fact that he’s able to put up numbers while doing that is the definition of most valuable player.

Even then people were saying he's the only good player and rpx should drop everyone except him, while he was also having a career worst season

meteor himself thinks he’s overrated so i cant argue against it (his reasoning is that he doesn’t play well regionally but he plays much better at international events)

to answer your question though, definitely oxy

Agreed as well. He’s great but I think chichoo is better in international events. Outside of Tokyo kk is a bit of a regional farmer

Nah, he was good in Champs 2022, amazing in Tokyo 2023, mid in Champs 2023, good in Madrid 2024, bad in Shanghai 2024 (but the entierety of EDG was bad and either him or smoggy was EDG's best player), amazing in Champs 2024 (I'm ngl, this is his best event if you look past purely the stats which are still great and this tournament alone proves he's no where near a regional farmer). And mid in Bangkok 2025 (but still EDG's second best player on the team). Calling him a regional farmer after Champs 2024 and all his other good performances is unreal ngl. In most of the tournaments where he's been mid/bad he was still the second best or best player on EDG. Imo Champs 2023 was easily his worst showing so far, but even that wasn't that bad.

He was a bit overrated for a time, but then everyone started calling him overrated and now he's back to being rated or even a bit underrated lol. At least on vlr.

Madrid his performance doesn’t really matter either no? Iirc edg went 0-2 or 1-2. His only standout performances where Tokyo (where he was individually incredible) and champs 2024. He was great in champs, but he only really played fantastically in 2 matches (v trace and th). He still had a lot of overheat moments or making mistakes in the other matches and smoggy and chichoo had more impact. He’s an incredible player still but not quite derke/Aspas level as people compare him too.

In my opinion, every match on the international stage is important even if the run is bad overall. I was just addressing your claims of you saying he was a regional farmer so I think it's fair to talk about all of his international performances.

I mean you mentioned the games were he popped off the most but he was sill great in every other game as well besides the one versus prx (which honestly wasn't that bad either). I don't think anyone think thinks that as an overall player KK is on the same level as Derke and Aspas, but that his peaks reaches the same high that their peaks do (which I can agree with). He did overheat a bit and make some mistakes I can admit that, but his impact was comparable to both smoggy and chichoo that tournament if not greater. 105 FK is crazy and the amount of space he created for his team was a crucial factor for all of EDG's wins.

I think people just look at his 1.10 rating and think that his performance there was overrated. And that's just something I don't agree with. I think it's reasonable to say KK was the best player in Champs 2024.

ethan

ngl, while other might argue that the reason EG 2023 won champs bcs of demon1/jawg/boostio igl, i personally think ethan and his plays are the glue that make EG work, kinda like f0rsaken toronto impact (indirect), HOWEVER he's never been that relevant ever since
