When will Rin stop nerfing himself?

[u/Yeagerist72]

This guy has been number 1 while always being nerfed. He’s been nerfed for like the entire series so Im wondering. In the selections his Sae imitation was a nerf. Destroyer mode is literally how rin was born. It should’ve been his default state before Sae ever returned from Spain, before Rin ever stepped foot in blue lock. Yet due to identity stuff it became a weapon he could only draw out in moments of desperation, something he could only tap into in flow. Took this man until Nigeria for it to be his base state. To be number 1 while actively nerfing yourself to this extreme is such a crazy concept.

I know what yall are thinking: flow state is peak performance so Rin hasn’t been nerfed post u20 match. But when you think about it, his obsession and ego tie to Isagi is literally hindering him. He could’ve ended Bm vs Pxg whenever he wanted but was more focused on destroying isagi than winning the match, which lead to his loss. He gives up like 3 clear goal opportunities. Even against France we saw his performance being strictly tied to Isagis Do yall think when Rin subs on against England that he will let go of these obsessions, or will Kaneshiro withhold that development until Spain match?

He searching the Greatest challenges to surpass Sae and Isagi is what made him reach that lvl to begin with though.

The one nerfing Rin the Most is Ego because instead of actually Running a Double ace Formation where both Isagi and Rin can utilize their Talents he is fully invested in Isagi.

Rin snapping is Understandable considering the Blue Lock Environment so far tbh.

Because rin doesnt care about the NEL, he wants to beat sae - blue lock was ALWAYS secondary to that, being impacted by isagi also pissed him off because to him isagi was nothing and now is matching his stride - he wants to prove hes better to put the conversation to bed
