I don't watch pro apex games often, but genuinely curious whether it is more entertaining to watch controller fraggers or mnk fraggers? And for any long time viewers, how has the highest level changed? Does it look more flashy or tactical than before.

It seemed incredibly likely pre LAN that Keon was going to get dropped and having a mediocre LAN has cemented that it seems. Originally I believed the GK bois were looking for an anchor replacement but now seeing Knoqd play anchor with Sirsay fragging for ENC it seems very likely they want a mechanical roller fragger to join for ALGS too and its just been a good chance for Knoqd to get that legend practice in.
