tbf, bind is really cypher's since the start. the narrow paths allow for trips even before his long trip buff and the map is very very small so single scan ult were fine too. oh I guess this applies to split too
nats used to play cypher on bind when he was in M3C, he and deffo (skye) did some creative plays on bind with the his camera spotting enemies and deffo ready to flash them
Cypher main here, have to admit that even though he got some buff before, I still feel like his kind of a sentinel is very weak but im happy to see that he gets to be used by some players in the tournaments.
his and penix statistically need buffs bc they have the lowest pick rates. in low elo tho, cypher is good bc he has good map value even if the newbie cant have a kill (and his utils are for passive roles)
Rito are allergic to balancing sentinels well for some reason. Whenever any sentinel agent gets up there in the pickrate they nerf them time and again instead of pushing other sentinels up. Cypher, Killjoy and Chamber have all been nerfed in the past
@@ThyRandomGuy there's a reason riot keeps nerfing them, and it's mainly because passive info is CRAZY broken if you're not coordinated enough to break the trips as a team passive info utility is extremely powerful, and having 0 drawback like an activation range (KJ/chamber), ease of breakage (cypher/chamber), or limited detection avenues (chamber has 1 AoE trip, cypher has 2 choke trips) would make them broken as agents KJ has been nerfed because she only has 1 downside, the activation range. Nerfing info agents is riot's way of responding to the meta + game knowledge developing since release, making the game less about stacking a site based on info, and more about taking gunfights and comboing utility
@@laser_fps there’s a reason why games like cs, r6 and val are called tactical shooters. You need tactics and coordination when playing on both sides, there’s a reason why all sentinels’ utilities can be broken. If they wanted a deathmatch with abilities sentinels as a class shouldn’t’ve existed in the first place. Nerfs as a balance method in isolation aren’t bad by any means, but when it feels like every patch one of the 3 main sentinels gets nerfed time and time again, at this point sentinel mains will be playing csgo in valorant
Cypher is INSANE on Bind i am so glad someone finally after MONTHS sees this, he can lock down half the map, play aggro, save your team because his util doesnt have a radius AAAA hes awesome
Had a hard time watching this as I know a boy so young, chasing his dreams has passed away. RIP Twisten from Team Vitality. Great breakdown on Cyphers viability on this map. Been picking him constant and being called a troll lol.
I’m a solo cypher player and I’m surprised they beat liquid as well with cypher. Don’t forget that nAts is a viper and cypher specialist as well. Plus this is his home map because he is from Morocco.
it is difficult, yes. but we can recognize him as a great player, and those around him can honor who he was in real life. i'm gonna miss him a lot regardless though. mental health is not something to joke about.
@@Remixjazz101 pretty much he's someone you need brains and aim to play with successfully but you could go the other route and go dasnerth style of using the judge and running it all down
Bind easily has been cyphers best map since the split rework. Not only is everything incredibly narrow but there are plenty of funky wire spots mixed with cameras that literally give you more information than a regular peak could. Always been a go to map for cypher for me
Ikr? I only play cypher on bind and Pearl I play him on bind cuz of the crazy trip wire setup I have for the map And Pearl because of a lot of entry especially mid
I get that cypher being used in pro plays like that suddenly makes a lot of sense. But till high diamond, lower immortal what goes is a total of 3 ways 1.4 attackers push a site with one playing lurk or catch rotate off guard. 2. 2-3 duelists setup rushes a site against smokes and an initiator or sentinel support. 3. No one is serious on pushing into site and takes the path to keep on poking till they secure a kill on an unsuspecting overconfident bloke or the weak links of the defenders. There's no chance that these insane professional level plays can stand a chance with random bluds who doesn't even use a mic to give call outs
idk why but ever since i started playing bind with cypher I usually can take full control of site till my teammates come to help me i just saw a setup in another video from long ago, tried it and it worked and i also started creating new setups to help in case they got use to it
Even as a FNC fan I don't get how and why they are called world champions. Lock//In was just a show-off tournament as said by Riot, end of 2022. The only you can become world champion is by winning Champions. Which they haven't. But I hope they do coz they definitely are the no. 1 team right now in the world...
See because cypher is not being picked at all on this map, most of the team will not have a strategies to counter him, nighter do they have thought of cypher being on the team. Thats why cypher looked like overpowering there.
As someone who enjoys cypher, glad to see him being played on maps where you wouldn't think he would work. We love camera man!

bind is like one of cyphers best maps along side ascent
@@cromwellcruz true
Rest in Paradise Twisten 😢
2:49 I really like the way you showed the map
It’s a bit overwhelming for me though. Just too much for my eyes to handle.
same

Watching this in 2024 feels insane lmao
Talk about a throwback
The map at the beginning is really pretty to look at. I hope you guys have that for every map, I find that more understandable! Great video as always.
These videos are always so well made, entertaining, and educational
The effort really shows and it doesn't go unappreciated, thanks man!

what happened to him?
@@ahnafrayeedahmed he killed himself
Whoa the quality of this video is so insane. I'm loving this format where you build a story line of off the different rounds you showcase.
I’m a solo cypher player and I’m surprised they beat liquid as well with cypher. Don’t forget that nAts is a viper and cypher specialist as well. Plus this is his home map because he is from Morocco.
Cypher main has a smile on their face
Cypher has always been the best agent, convince me otherwise
I am here to cheer along your opinion
cypher is not the best agent, convince me otherwise
No agent is the best agent, convince me otherwise
@@owmynd5232 except for the time chamber was unarguably the best.
@@owmynd5232 I agree no agent is the best agent, but each role might have the most powerful one.
Cypher is really underrated. People don't realise his potential
Bit hard to watch these old Vitality games after the horrible news about Twisten
it is difficult, yes. but we can recognize him as a great player, and those around him can honor who he was in real life. i'm gonna miss him a lot regardless though. mental health is not something to joke about.
Cypher doesn't suck it's just there aren't many players out there willing to utilize him to his full potential because the majority is saying he sucks
Some say he is to hard to play so that’s why they say he sucks

rip twisten 😭😭
They should change cyphers ult so his cam could carry a gun. Id put an odin on it
0:38 no they wanted to change %100 pickrate
2:00 "if anyone can make it happen, its these guys"... boaster posing like a champ, LOOOOL
0:47 after that i liked the video lmao
rip twisten :((
2:52 bind realistic map looks really sick
Babe, wake up teets posted a new video
When your a cypher main but hate bind
as a cypher main, im so surprised people do not realize the viability of his kit. especially on bind, which is (imho) his best map
Ikr? I only play cypher on bind and Pearl
I play him on bind cuz of the crazy trip wire setup I have for the map
And Pearl because of a lot of entry especially mid
Rest in peacd twisten man
Great video. You provide an excellent analysis in a format that’s digestible even for casual players.
Esport’s analyst take notes.
I could never entry bind on b and I swear the satchel don't break the trips
I haven't played the new bind but Im happy to see him be played on it since I always picked cypher on bind before it was removed.
i love the courage the cowardly dog reference
Agreed.
15:34 omg courage the cowardly dog reference. bliss 🙏

Rest In Heaven Twisten ❤😢
As a cypher main, I'm screaming with enjoyment (my face is still right now) at the fact that my main is in one of these videos.
We also had Less using cypher on breeze back at champions
I've been picking cypher bind since I started, and always did well with it
I see EMEA on the skill hud, nice little detail
I'm a cypher main and this map is the best i can ever play either defense or attack,that must be because it's cypher's lore map too
Cypher is very based around intelligence, situational awareness and spacial knowledge/intelligence
Tbh I would love to see a breakdown about loud using chamber on bind, saadhak played him very well and was top frag most of the time
Wait what are you saying? He literally was on 0 mills for like the first 8-9 rounds
kills*
thanks for this teets!! sadhaak chamber analysis on bind soon? >:)
oh how the tables have turneddd
Rip twisten
I played warthujder since 2015 and this is the first time I’ve seen it in an ad
I’m a smoke main but once I see that bind map on my screen, you betcha I am picking Cypher. It’s like that map was built for him to DOMINATE!
can you breakdown PRX vs DRX grand finals please. PRX reyna picks is wild
Yoru mains: i have no such weakness 😎
listen guys dont go picking cypher bc u see this vid (unless u want) but Fnatic are just so damn good it can make any agent look phenomenal 😂
rest in peace twisten🕊💙
RAHHH WARTHUNDER, IM LVL 100 AND MY SOUL IS GONE DONT GET TRAPPED INSIDE THE BIG LOOP
And then got absolutely wrecked by Cypher vs TL in the grand finals
THESE VIDEOS ARE SO GOOD MAN I’M ADDICTED
Cypher main society will definitely enjoy this breakdown
Finally Cypher getting recognition WOOOOO been playing him for a year. Finally i won't get shout at for picking Cypher every map 😅
im only improving my gamesense because of your videos keep up the work
Cypher has always been the bind meta
Hmm.. I have to learn playing Cypher now!
Don't let this distract you from the fact that bungee gum has the properties of both rubber and gum 🗿
8:13 admiral cypher 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cypher is cool when the setup works, but not cool when the enemies go the other site
2:50 This real bind map looks weirdly disturbing
hey @Teets where do i find these 3d map models, i want to do similar content for my community in Brazil
10:58 “He gets team flashed”
It’s not a “teamflash” its a FNATIC flash..!
I've never noticed cypher not being played on bind
I love cypher, especially on b site bind, but kinda ditched him after ranking up a bit and raze became common
idk why but ever since i started playing bind with cypher I usually can take full control of site till my teammates come to help me
i just saw a setup in another video from long ago, tried it and it worked and i also started creating new setups to help in case they got use to it
As a both war thunder and valorant player, i can confirm that 5.3 and Bronze is diffcult
hi nice to see my main being featured :)
Nah. Pacific teams started using Cypher first in League compared to Emea Americas league.
can you do breakdown on PRX forsaken's cypher vs T1 in lotus?
2:53 nice design
Loving the underdog picks
I got 8 ads throughout the video LMFAO! Little poor me! 😂
Great analysis!
nats
Am i a joke to u
Looking forward to the video on the chamber pick by loud on the winner finals and grand finals of vct americS
chypher meta is a new thing maybe?
sry i mean cypher
Cypher dominating in his home
R.I.P Twisten, he will be missed absolutely

brb becoming a cypher main
i just looked at the minimap enough to notice...
Why they're playing old bind...
Now let's wait until you make a vod about how team liquid is beating the unbeatable team on grand final.
Why did you have to jump scare me with the war thunder ad
9 months fast forwarded me thinking was cypher a F tier bro is literally at top with Jett raze at S tier
Cypher has been good, people legit dont know how to use him
Fnatic is a hype beast of a team, holy
See because cypher is not being picked at all on this map, most of the team will not have a strategies to counter him, nighter do they have thought of cypher being on the team. Thats why cypher looked like overpowering there.
omg they use a different agent the new meta omgggg
idc how broken cypher is im keeping my account away from that agent by not unlocking him
What website is that first graphic from showing which teams played which agents on Bind???
that frenzy comment aged well lmao💀
@Teets At 13:56 there is that really cool cypher art. Can you tell me where you goz it from?
Valorant anime-inspired weapon skins
I can't wait for the FNC vs TL and C9 vs EG (hoping that you upload it 😂)
not doing C9 vs EG, but I'm doing FNC vs TL. There's just too many games haha. Hopefully I can get them all out before or around the start of champs
Virgin KJ vs Chad cypher
i would miss my grandma's funeral to watch a Teets video
It's what she would've wanted
