What regions makes the best players

#1

Obelisk

A val roster needs to follow a line-up and the line up usally looks like this

Duelist
Flex
Smoke
Initiator
Sentinel

This is usally the core line-up for any team so what regions make the best players for each role

Duelist- SA in my opinion make the best Duelists even when they are badly losing they are still able to have huge impact on the team and sparks the rest of the team to come back they have incredible aim and can entry onto any site and are guaranteed to get a pick on the enemy team such as LLL Aspas, KRU KeznitdeuS, LEV kiNgg and many others

Flex- APAC in my opinion create the best Flex players one we can use for a example is PRX Jinggg in my opinion he is one of the best Flex players I have seen ever touch this game apart from SEN SicK but also many other APAC teams such as BOOM and XERXIA even including ORDER have amazing Flex players like BME Famouz, XIA Sushiboys, ORD disk0 and many others and prove that APAC make the best Flex players

Smoke- NA in my opinion create the best Smoke players time and time again they have proven their massive fragging potential and shown how adaptable they are to any situation and their ability to win nearly any gun fights they get into for example OPTC Marved, 100T Bang, XSET AYRIN and many others

Initiator- East Asia in my opinion create the best Initiator players for example DRX Stax, ZETA Crow, NTH JoxJo, EDG nobody and many others have proven themselves many times on the international stage and proven they are the best Initiator players

Sentinel- EMEA in my opinion create the best Sentinel players for example FPX Suygetsu, TL Jamppi, M3C Chronicle and many others i understand Sentinels have fallen out of meta but when they are used there power is always shown and EMEA best shows it with their players

RIOT wanted to have Brazil as a separate region. So they did not include Brazil in LATAM altho Brazil is LATAM .
Same with APAC with countries like KR and JP got separate regions in VCT

AYRIN is a good player and he gets the job done and clutches when he needs to he might not be a fragger like Marved and Bang but he has the smarts to make good outplays

L1nk owns dimasick tho. Dimasick did literally nothing any tier 1-2 controller can't do. And he was being carried by Scream who was in godly form during LCQ. Liquid would have won with L1nk too if Scream played like that

Ah shit I thought you were actually mad at me :/
But it's true. Zekken and Cryo are being absolutely wasted having to carry Ayrin and BcJ. Both of them are good enough for a top 3 team. Hope they get into a good team after Franchising

Dex is obviously correct, though: Ayrin and Marved cannot be included in the same impact group when discussing best players of the region (such as the smoker group, etc.). I don't wish to offend either Ayrin or you; I'm merely stating a critical opinion. Players like Marved deserve respect and recognition simply because they have demonstrated that they are quite exceptional/consistent in their roles for a long time. I'm surprised you didn't bring up any other players, like Supamen... when NA Smokes cluster is taken into consideration, they should be mentioned. Also, lots of the finest players are absent from the conversation in other regions (i.e. such as EMEA). Players like nAts are not looked at at all. But I'll leave that at it as the task is quite vast and not the easy one.

sentinel would be NA. they have many good chamber (yes they are considered as sentinel) like yay, cryo, dicey, seven, bdog and even their tier 2 chamber looks solid like koala, oxy and neon.

edit: i also think EMEA have the best intitiator as they have shao, leo, chronicle etc.

yes but chamber is still a sentinel and they have a lot good chamber players. NA smoke? their smoke is pretty average tho (except marved).

NA Smokes fragging power is on another level they mainly win their fights 80% of the time and in my opinion there chambers are not as good as other regions the only chamber in NA that is amazing and barely misses is FaZe Dicey

why would duelist be SA over NA? TenZ, yay, leaf, cryo, asuna, victor, zellsis, mada, bdog, xeppaa, sayaplayer, babybay, and many others are all insane duelist players even if some transitioned to the OP role. there's way more duelist/fragging talent in NA than SA lol

EMEA is best for sentinels, initiators and flex in my opinion.
Leo, Shao, Enzo, Cloud, Sheydos/Chronicle etc. NA is strong for initiators as well. EA falls behind both.
and for flex EMEA has always had the most flexible players and many of them. APAC only having Jingg doesn't prove that they are best at that.

Realistically you can't name single other region for any of these other than EMEA or NA if you look at quality and quantity.

Duelist - NA because they rely on duelist more than EMEA
Smokes - NA because many top EMEA smokers are IGLs
Initiators - EMEA, but NA has good individuals as well
Flex - EMEA
Sentinel - EMEA

hes not his agent pool is small and mostly consists of raze , reyna and sage and neon(played only once) . But its mostly just raze and sage which he plays . A flex player has a larger agent pool . Forsaken would maybe qualify for a flex but he still a duelist .
