He shit on Seattle at M1, he wasn't amazing vs Faze in either matchup. Only went positive vs a top 4 team on LAN once all year

Vegas played a T4 team 13 times in total this year, Nero went positive 8 times and only went below a 0.85 once, and went positive in both LAN matchups vs T4 despite losing both. Even despite all the losses against the best teams, Nero was still performing well. The only map Vegas won on LAN vs a top 4 team was the control vs NY at M4, and Nero had to drop 40.

I watched the whole year very closely, and honestly fuck the results, my eyes tell me Nero was easily the 5th best sub of this year, and honestly I'd be tempted to put him 4th cause of that big slump that Pred went through.

A meaningful role doesn't really matter if you get shit on, like CleanX did vs the top 4 on LAN all year

Also, Nero's role is one of the most impactful in the league since he's one of the most OBJ oriented subs. He's Vegas's bomb carrier in search, he's number 2 in the league among subs in hill time per 10 on HP only behind his former teammate, objective god Purj. He's number 5 among all subs in zone caps on control despite being the only player in the top 20 in zone caps that hasn't played at least 40 control maps this year.

So he's among the most objective based sub players in the game, and on top of that, he gives me a consistent 1.1 against just about anybody both online and LAN? And you're saying he wasn't a top 5 sub this year?? I don't think we watched the same thing man

Placings shouldn't matter that much for bottom 8 teams. They're bottom 8 for a reason, but it for sure wasn't Nero's fault. He cooked on LAN this year.

Well respectfully, Tobi got shit on vs the t4 on LAN all year. Nero actually had more positive KD series' vs T4 teams on LAN than CleanX

Vegas only played a T4 team twice on LAN all year but Nero still had a 1.08 vs them, right in line with his season numbers. Had a 40 bomb in the control vs NY in M4

Just be thankful I didn't put Nero over AG, I really considered it cause of that big slump he went through, and if he didn't play so well at champs, I probably would've put Nero over Pred just for this year

Yes. He performed better than both of them online and on LAN, that's a fact. The dude was a respawn reaper all year
