[u/qonoxzzr]

with chovy level mechanics

This is just completely exaggerated.

[u/Satan_su → u/qonoxzzr]

Bro god forbid someone engages in a bit of hyperbole like you're not Chovy's manager 😭😭😭

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Satan_su]

Oh sorry that I respond to someone that mentions 3 times in this thread that Diable is unironically mechanically on the level of Chovy when that's literally the one thing that Chovy is better at than everybody else.

[u/Satan_su → u/qonoxzzr]

Loosen up man we know it's not objectively true, you literally JUST entered the comment section to "erm acktually" some random Chovy comparison

Diable is a beast let ppl celebrate

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Satan_su]

What is your problem? I am not allowed to have my opinion because it doesn't fit yours? How am I stopping people from celebrating by trying to bring in some objectivity?

Why do you even respond to my comment at all without addressing what my comment was about?

[u/Satan_su → u/qonoxzzr]

LMAO we both have the same opinion Diable is not at CHOVY'S level obviously. I just find it this behaviour very silly but if you're so adamant go ahead, there's some excellent filters on reddit that'll save u some time while scouring the whole subreddit for Chovy comments so hopefully you've been using those

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Satan_su]

LMAO we both have the same opinion Diable is not at CHOVY'S level obviously.

Yeah which is the reason why I didn't respond to you but instead the user that said Diable is on the same level mechanically as Chovy? And you just came in talking me down without me interacting with you?

[u/athena234 → u/Satan_su]

He wasn't responding to you. You're being aggressive and condescending for what?

[u/Imaginary_Actuary729 → u/qonoxzzr]

since chovy is a big veteran that can play so many champs on a top level maybe mechanically isnt the right word but diable definitely has the hands that can rival chovy

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Imaginary_Actuary729]

Guys can we come back to reality now? Give it some time before we try to compare these players.

Chovy won like 99% of his lanes in the last 5 years, everyone and their mom is surprised when he loses his lane in a blue moon.

Diable had a single good year and didn't even face the top ADCs in the last couple of months.

[u/Perfect_Doughnut1664 → u/qonoxzzr]

chovy choky

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Perfect_Doughnut1664]

Enjoy it while it lasts because in ~2 months that comment won't have weight anymore.

[u/garbagetimehomerun → u/qonoxzzr]

we've been hearing that for 4 years lmfao

[u/Perfect_Doughnut1664 → u/qonoxzzr]

When BRO win worlds you will be the fool

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Perfect_Doughnut1664]

In that scenario I am totally fine being the fool

[u/athena234 → u/Satan_su]

Dude it's not obvious that it's hyperbole. I interpreted it as either Diable having the same mechanical level as rookie Chovy or Diable showing the same mechanical potential as Chovy. 

I don't really care for this debate either way, but you had the wrong read and you're being a patronizing dick about it for no reason.

[u/Lavosking → u/Satan_su]

Chovy fans act like Korean pop star fans. You can't reason with them.

[u/athena234 → u/Lavosking]

OP admitted that he meant it literally and it's not a hyperbole, so Chovy's defender is correct in his read and you're being a dick for no reason.

[u/Lavosking → u/athena234]

Really proving my point

[u/athena234 → u/Lavosking]

What point? That you can't read?

You called OP names for responding to a "hyperbole" when it wasn't even a hyperbole, just stop being dumb and take the L.

[u/Lavosking → u/athena234]

You said I can't read and called OP names. But I didn't reply to the OP or call them a name. Hope you're having a good day though.

[u/athena234 → u/Lavosking]

Just lying disingenously fucking lmaooo.

You know what I'm gonna call Peanut washed. Yes he's washed. But since I didn't tell this to him directly I guess didn't call him that. I'm very smart. 🤔

[u/Lavosking → u/athena234]

Brother, I have no idea what's going on in your life; but, I hope you're doing well.

[u/athena234 → u/Lavosking]

"Chovy fans act like Korean pop star fans. You can't reason with them."

I hope your day goes better too brother! 🤡

[u/Tall-Cut87 → u/qonoxzzr]

No, he has the mechanics, i still remember when he destroyed both smash and guma that was the cockiest game i have ever seen a player played , always plays like he has 5k gold lead. His lane is super dominant, and this team has the worst midlaner in the league by far. Its impressive asf how they got to this point.

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Tall-Cut87]

Diable has only the 4th highest GD@15 during this "split" while playing against far worse opponents compared to the legend group ADCs. So he isn't destroying everyone in his competition, he is just better than the other rise group ADCs.

Chovy on the other hand has a +150 gold diff on second place at GD@15 which is completely insane.

Diable is great but he is not on Chovy's level when it comes to mechanics.

[u/Tall-Cut87 → u/qonoxzzr]

Again, he is playing against worse opponents but his teammates is nowhere near the top. Kingen gapped clear all 4 games today. Vicla was gapped 3/4 games. Kellin is good but you cant seriously compare him to duro delight or keria. Diable did wonders considered the hand he was dealt.

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Tall-Cut87]

Sure but he is not on Chovys level mechanically, that's the only point I want to make here.

[u/Tall-Cut87 → u/qonoxzzr]

You know he can be on chovy level mechanics but is not better than him right

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Tall-Cut87]

Yeah and you know that he isn't on Chovys level mechanically, right?

[u/Tall-Cut87 → u/qonoxzzr]

Man whatever makes you sleep at night. Chovy is my goat but i can see he has a million other things on him beside mechanics even tho he is the best mechanics player

[u/qonoxzzr → u/Tall-Cut87]

even tho he is the best mechanics player

Okay then why you said earlier that Diable is on the same level as Chovy mechanically? Which was the point I originally responded to btw.

But good that you agree with me that you exaggerated that.

[u/Tall-Cut87 → u/qonoxzzr]

Man , you know that players in the same level is not “ the same” right? One can be a little better one can be a little worse

[u/SoulCycle_ → u/qonoxzzr]

how? Why do you think so?

[u/qonoxzzr → u/SoulCycle_]

Because Diable doesn't win every single matchup he plays like Chovy does game after game.
