top 10 teams for valorant first year

I did it based on the great achievements of the year. I may be wrong. I purposely share this before the final

1-Gambit
2-Acend
3-Liquid
4-Sentinels
5-Fnatic
6-Envy
7-Vision Strikers
8-Cloud 9
9-G2
10-100t

KRU deserves one of those spots, they did better than c9, g2 and 100t at least

sentinels should be above liquid, they won masters 2 and qualified for berlin (unlike liquid) and barely lost to liquid in champs
not to mention they also won masters 1

No even a sentinel fan but how the fk liquid over sentinel?
1 Gambit
2 acend
3 sentinels
4 liquid
Not to mention if acend didn't won they will be 3 and sentinel will be 2

this may be your list but you have to respect the krü

1 - TSM Faze Clan invitational winner

Wdf happened to my list

Somehow my list is getting messed up

10 -100T i am dead

If Acend win Champs then they're 2nd for sure. If they don't, I think put SEN second.

KRU needs to be there as well.

I'm guessing Gambit to win Champs, so

1. Gambit
2. Sentinels
3. Acend
4. Liquid
5. Fnatic
6. KRÜ
7. Envy
8. Vision Strikers/X10
9. Vision Strikers/X10
10. Team Vikings

Almost exclusively according to performance at the 3 Masters and Champs. More weighted to Champs obvi

SEN over liquid and maybe acend aswell depending how this grand final goes

Why is Liquid that high in every list, it’s not based on level, it’s based on Achievements. And same for Fnatic.

Objectively the top goes like this

1.GMB (Top 1 Top1/2)
2.Sentinels (Top1, Quarterfinals, Groups)
3.Acend (Quarterfinals, Top1/2)
4.KRU (Semifinals, Quarterfinals, Early tournament)
5.Liquid/FNC pretty much the same (FNC made it further in Reykjavik, Liquid made it further at champs)

I think recency bias is justifiable since this is THE MOST IMPORTANT EVENT OF THE YEAR, everyone worked for the main goal Champions

1) Gambit (Obviusly, won Masters 1, missed Masters 2, but won Berlin with dominant games against other tier 1 teams -remember their 13-0 vs G2 and a somehow easy victory over Envy at finals, and now they're Champions finalist, first team to reach the finals twice!, they've the strongest mental out of any team right now)
2) Sentinels (Won Masters 1 and then Maters 2 without dropping a single map, dominated NA the whole year -idc what anyone says but BBG was an odd match for everyone and SEN cameback to win that Challengers event anyways- had a great showing at Maters 3 but had a rough tournament at Champions)
3) Acend (Won Masters 1, missed Masters 2, had a great showing at Masters 3, and now, besides the VK controversy, they looked dominant over all their opponents with solid 2-0s to reach the Grand Finals at Champions, with probable the best Jett in the world -cNed-)
4) KRU (The first iteration of the team -with Leobas then Bnj before Keznit joined- had a respectable 3rd place at Masters 1 and solid showing for a minor region at Iceland, they improved and reached top 8 at Masters 3, and now reached Champions semis with the hardest run out of any team -Liquid, Furia, then Sentinels and Fnatic your Iceland finalist and then the reign champions Gambit, losing barely at a 37-38 overall scoreline in the best Valorant series ever)

From now on, its really hard, most teams missed 1/2 of the biggest events AND/OR had a rough showing at Champions, its really hard for me to place them but if i were to choose 6 teams that stood out this year..

-IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER-
Team Liquid
EnVy
X10 Crit
Fnatic
100T Thieves
Vision Strikers
