Kind of unrelated, but it's kinda funny how Aspas worst performance internationally is the one where he won champs. Goes to show how much Valorant is a team game and that using trophies isn't a good way to assess how strong of an individual player someone is. Nats was better in his first win (although this was his close to being the best on his own team in a win), Leo and Derke were better in the second win, and Alfa and Leo were better in the third win. Chronicle is an amazing player no doubt, but he feels like a super role player rather than that main guy which makes it hard for me to put him at number 1.
If I had to give a comparison, Chronicle is kinda like the 2nd/3rd best player in Astralis (don't watch CS, so idk who that is). Not someone I would consider the GOAT, but someone I would consider to be crucial in any team.
