This high perception, however, wouldn't last as players began learning how to play around Snake's strengths while using Snake's lacking disadvantage state in their favor. Furthermore, Snake's top-level representation also began to suffer mid-2019 due to Ally's ban, MVD's decline in results, and Salem picking up other characters to use alongside Snake. Although Snake continued to have high representation going into, during, and out of the online metagame, players began wondering whether Snake was starting to fall out of the metagame. | This high perception, however, wouldn't last as players began learning how to play around Snake's strengths while using Snake's lacking disadvantage state in their favor.

Doubts on Snake, however, eventually faded as Snake's popularity remained. Old mains such as MVD, {{Sm|Shogun}}, and {{Sm|DIO}} continued to see strong, yet somewhat inconsistent, results on a major level, while new names, most notably {{Sm|ApolloKage}}, appeared on the national scene. This has allowed Snake to maintain his high representation in the metagame, and players in the current metagame still consider Snake to be a top tier, making him ranked 15th on the first. Opinions on Snake only continued to improve as he remained one of the most popular characters in competitive play. In addition, the rise of {{Sm|Hurt}} in 2023 gave Snake yet another representative at the top level, while the metagame favoring a campier, more patient playstyle was beneficial to Snake. As such, Snake rose significantly on the second tier list to 4th, ranking as one of the best characters in the game. | Doubts on Snake, however, eventually faded as Snake's popularity remained.
