Taimou is getting carried very hard these past few months.

Thanks for an effort respond rather than brain dead "bait" messages, i appreciate it.

The coach of his team and a top 3 team in the world praises him over his 5 other players.

Are you talking about Kyky? Do you really think Kyky should praise Taimou over Effect and Chips. Lets be a bit real here. And do you wanna tell me when Kyky (or this other coach) praised Taimou? Im mainly talking about his performance in contender here, which is a recent thing, and if your talking about the coach praising Taimou from a long time ago, then it doesnt hold relevance right now, if you get what i mean.

He said he is very vocal and a leader on the team. He is widely regarded as a top hitscan in the world from outside players and when you add in the fact that he is a leader within the team I'm not sure how you can argue someone is getting carried.

Thats a fair point about him being vocal and shotcaller, that is valuable to the team, i agree, but im talking about his mechanical abilities here on mccree. This is the same situation with Esca, his dps is inconsistent but hes a great shotcaller, but people know Esca is not the best dps in the world, thats Taimou fate right there.

He is widely regarded as a top hitscan in the world from outside players

His soldier has been called out as being bad by koreans. His widowmaker is great, no doubt. And his star player mccree has been underperforming in contender. He doesnt play tracer. If this claim was made during the world cup, i would had agree, but not now, especially in contenders.

It seems like you guys are forgetting the point i made, and i would like to emphasis on it again.

Envyus, just came out of Korea, and is playing against unprepared NA team. Envyus are steamrolling through their competition in NA. And even despite that, Taimou has been underperforming on his mccree a lot. This competition should be easy and yet he struggles.

Do you think when korean comes in contender, Taimou will do better or worse?

I guess we just gotta wait for Koreans to beat Envyus, and then for people to realize that Envyus lost because Taimou was the weaklink. I guess then the title best dps/hitscan in the world will drop.

Lets talk about contender here.

Look at effects, his tracer and flexibility is far beyond anyone in Contender. Look at chips, his ana is far beyond anyone in contender. Look at harryhook, his lucio is far beyond anyone in contender. Now look at Taimou, only his widowmaker (which is a very situational pick) is far beyond anyone. But his mccree get outperformed by Effect, Carpe, hell even Jesus was equal to him in duels. AKM soldier is better, hell again, effect soldier was better as well (effect is a fukin god). Junkrat, Taimou does good with him, but hes such a low skill cap character, that any pros can become high tier with him, one example, Buds outperformed Taimou when they were facing off against each other, making Envyus switch to triple tanks and Taimou switch to Mccree.
