Demon1 (Max Mazanov) — Valorant Professional Player Settings and Gear
About Demon1
Max 'Demon1' Mazanov announced himself to the world at VCT Champions 2023, where he led Evil Geniuses to an improbable championship victory and claimed the Grand Finals MVP award in a stunning performance. His combination of extremely low sensitivity (184 eDPI, one of the lowest in professional Valorant) and explosive flick aim creates a style that is almost impossible to replicate — requiring extraordinary arm speed and mousepad real estate. Demon1's highlight reels are filled with multi-kill rounds that look more like aim trainer clips than professional match footage, with a raw mechanical ceiling that has drawn comparisons to TenZ in his prime. At just 20 years old, he has already won the most prestigious event in Valorant and established himself as one of the faces of North American Valorant. His aggressive duelist playstyle pushes the boundaries of what's possible with low-sensitivity aiming, regularly pulling off flick shots that seem to contradict the physical limitations of his setup. The speed of Demon1's ascent from relative unknown to world champion represents one of the greatest Cinderella stories in Valorant's young competitive history.
