Since the release of Apex Legends, there\u2019s been a debate about whether MnK or controller is better at the top level of play. While MnK can pull off insane movement mechanics, controller players have access to aim assist making it easier to land shots, especially at close-range. This accuracy increase has pushed a lot of pros to make the switch to controller. One of which is TSM\u2019s Philip \u2018ImperialHal\u2019 Dosen who has been extremely vocal about how OP he believes aim assist can be, pulling off countless highlight reel plays and even winning the recent ALGS finals on controller. Well, FaZe\u2019s Snip3down has weighed in on the controller debate, arguing that based on stats from the recent ALGS finals, it\u2019s clear MnK still has its place in the Apex pro scene. Snip3down argues controller doesn\u2019t dominate MnK in ALGS Taking to Twitter on February 7, Snip3down argued that the recent ALGS finals are proof that MnK still has a place in the pro scene and the lack of faith in the peripheral is just a \u201cconfidence issue at this point\u201d. This comes as a reaction to the constant calls for aim assist nerfs over the last few months, with certain pros even going as far as to say that MnK is not worth using over controller. Snip3down\u2019s argument rests on the stats from the London LAN, which showed that seven of the top 10 kill leaders were using a keyboard and mouse. Not only that, the top three spots on the list are all taken up by MnK players. It\u2019s only ImperialHal in fourth who is the first controller user on the list, with Kiloposz, sweet, and YukaF all above him. For Snip3down, \u201ccontroller is strong\u201d for running at people in Ranked games but for the ALGS it\u2019s a \u201cdifferent story and people are mentally psyching themselves out\u201d. It\u2019s clear he thinks MnK still has a place on the pro stage and for now, the peripheral is still performing well in the hands of talented players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends pro Snip3down argues MnK is just as strong as controller in ALGS Respawn Entertainment\/Twitch: Snip3downApex Legends pro player Eric \u2018Snip3down\u2019 Wrona has argued that controller doesn\u2019t dominate the ALGS and that Mouse and Keyboard still has its place.
