demon1 is the best player in Valorant history

babysasuke

Champs MVP in his rookie year, unmatched aim and gamesense, ice cold at all times, can play any agent at its max potential

This guy is actually different and will be one of the main reasons that NRG is the best team in the world for all of 2024 (will not choke when it matters like some teams)

So crazy that we're witnessing the journey of a rookie player winning Champions in his first and second years playing and MVPing both, and getting the first International tournament sweep on the way

I think this is bait, but he is simply not "the best player in valorant history" because you need a longer resume. If Lebron averaged a 40 point triple double his rookie year, won league MVP, and won a championship he would not be the best player in NBA history. Demon1 has only had to qualify for lan 1 time. Not taking away the fact that he owned in both lans but body of work matters. I.e. Leo, Aspas, etc.

He's not the best because he needs to be the best for longer?

What are you talking about?

Valorant has 3 seasons, demon1 has spent 1/3rd of the entire esport as the defacto best player

#27

Yes he needs to be the best for longer. His team had a bad record in the regular season he had 2 good lans. Srry edited the orginial post you replied quick

2 phenomenal LANs*

and growing pains of moving players around midseason, they still ended top3 Americas by the time regular season wrapped

When he's the best player in every international event this year, will you be on board?

First international lan ever was may 2021. Meta was underdeveloped though. I don't rlly analyze the game enough to have a strong opinion, but 2 years both being franchised years is a stronger case yea

1/3rd of the entire esport as the defacto best player

Pretty sure he was not the best player throughout the whole year of 2023 buddy. Leo and Alfajer exist. He only became a demon in Champions

That would be 1/6th, not 1/3rd

can play any agent at its max potential

He definitely did not play Astra or Brim to "max potential". He clearly is very flexible, and he clearly did well in terms of gunfights while on those agents, but his util was pretty basic and compared to actual smokes players he did not have the same amount of impact purely in terms of util.

Demon1 has the potential to be the best player of all time, I agree.
In 2024, with his Champs MVP, he is the best player at the moment.
Will he be the best player in the future? We cannot be certain.

It has been a meteoric rise for the 21 year old however he needs to sustain this success.
Yay had arguably the best year for a valorant pro of all time however due to what happened in the following year, he's not remembered as fondly.

If FNC have another great year and Alfajer racks up a few more MVP's then Alfajer would be the furthest ahead in the trajectory of becoming the goat.

#33

unfortunately Alfajer never winning another event, let alone another MVP, unless he moves to NA, and he just doesnt have the same impact demon1 does anyway

Yay was the previous best player itw, but failed to show the same dominance in a new environment because it was apparent that his personal performance also relies on his team to allow him to play the way he does

I’ve been saying that Demon1 v Aspas are gonna be our Messi v Ronaldo. Aspas has consistently been gapping every duelist in VCT since he joined (not gonna include yay’s chamber into this cus that’s not a duelist role) up until Demon1 came. They r the future.

You just show how little you know if you can’t admit FNC is the most stacked roster in the world.

I will always root for NA teams first, but that doesn’t mean I’m dumb enough not to realize FNC has the best pedigree in the world.

Demon1 isn’t In the top 10 my guy, and if you count the top 20 derke is on the list twice for CHAMPIONS performances.

And the argument “if you ignore almost the entirety of last year then FNC isn’t good” is ignorant as fuck, but to be expected from someone like you.

Alright now you're just a dumb tard. I'll agree with babysasuke on this. To say Demon1 isnt in the Top10 but almost ALL professional players and casters says and knows hes in the Top10. Clueless. Go read a book. Lil bro talking about "ignorance".

Tenz has an incredible year. Next year flops

Yay has an incredible year. Next year flops

CNed has an incredible year. Next year flops

The only person I can think of that didn’t struggle a ton after having an incredible year is Aspas.

While I hope demon1 continues to be amazing. It shouldn’t shock anyone if he struggles this year. It’s actually very common in all sports.

in what way does he play "any agent to its max potential," he has literally only shown consistent high level performance on jett and chamber, his brimstone and astra maps are pretty big outliers in the context of EG's season... their fracture had virtually flawless macro and he had practically no individual responsibility in that comp. as for lotus, he was basically given full freedom to just hold angles and place stars for execs. obviously his aim is world class, but what has he demonstrated that makes you say he has the best game sense? especially compared to players who are hyper flexible and have mastered multiple agents (and agent classes) across multiple metas like Chronicle, or ultra consistent top-level performers like MaKo and f0rsaken. even if you wanted to pick an Americas player, id take aspas over him every day given his ability to play all duelists at a high level
