EDG’s Wang “Nobody” Senxu Shatters Breach’s Reputation with Impressive Play in VALORANT
In a stunning series against LOUD, 2022 Champions winners, EDward Gaming emerged victorious with a 2-0 score in the world of VALORANT esports. While the entire EDG team performed exceptionally well, Wang “Nobody” Senxu’s highlight play in the 22nd round caught everyone’s attention, potentially setting the momentum for their win on Fracture.
Nobody’s Audacious Play
At the start of the round, EDG executed a classic A-Split push strategy, with some players grouped up in Attacker Side Bridge and others staying back in Attacker Side Spawn. However, LOUD was not easily fooled by this plan and immediately pushed into A Main to take control. This left Nobody alone to face three formidable VALORANT athletes from LOUD.
Unbelievable Skill Display
Despite the odds being stacked against him, Nobody displayed extraordinary mechanical skills by eliminating all three opponents while under the effects of Breach’s Rolling Thunder ultimate. This play demonstrated the importance of precise gunplay in VALORANT, even though abilities often steal the spotlight.
Implications for Breach’s Viability
Nobody’s exceptional play has prompted the VALORANT community to question the usefulness of Breach. Many viewers and professionals are calling for a buff to his stuns, considering Nobody’s success as an outlier. However, analyzing the situation in detail reveals that this play was likely a result of LOUD’s miscalculation rather than a flaw in Breach’s kit.
It’s important to note that, apart from this incident, Breach’s Rolling Thunder remains an incredibly powerful ultimate in VALORANT, capable of creating game-breaking set plays. Additionally, Breach offers potent flashes and a lethal deterrent ability with Aftershock. Making significant changes to Breach’s stuns at this point could disrupt the balance of the Initiator meta.
EDG will continue their lower bracket run at VCT Masters Tokyo and fight to stay in the competition.
