Are prx the best team of 2026?

No, but Let’s say in a 1-in-10 chance prx somehow reaches the finals and they were just unlucky to play loud first round, they are most definitely placing second not only because of double map ban but after yesterday’s game, it shows that prx still don’t have it in them to win another trophy. But if they reaches another final and lose, do they really deserve the title of best team of 2026?

C9 is a close second to be fair

i dont know i just watch the games i dont think

100% yes
They are the most consistent team in VALORANT history to be fair
Other than fnatic

if nongshim, nrg or 100t win champs or even get 2nd i would say they are the team of the year
otherwise i think prx are the team of the year even if they bomb out of champs

if vit, g2, t1 or loud win they are not the team of the year

There are 6 Candidates

Nongshim: Win 1 master, didn't qualify to another master, currently top 8 Champs
Lev: Only relevant at Master London
NRG: Looks great at Master Santiago and Champs but sh*t Master London, one of the strongest candidate to win Champs
PRX: double penetration by NS & Lev to choke PRX so hard. Now, only rely on Ascent & Summit
100T: Rich by EWC prize and currently the best team from the strongest region. But irrelevant at Master (didn't even qualify)
VIT: Actually a good counter against American teams but look messy against Pacific teams

If NS or NRG wins, they are better.
