Where is FPX in global rankings?

#1

Wronghand

I just want more input. Where are these guys globally?

I'd say there is a 'Top 2' in Optic and Loud rn. Optic is just the toughest mental to break in the game, and the Loud roster is just as good. I'd say that Grand Finals goes for Optic 6/10 times, and Loud 4/10. They are top 2.

Is FPX there? Fnatic wasn't the team we saw, I'm not counting them. It's more a talk of G2 and Liquid. Both teams didn't perform as they were projected, for the most part. G2 beat a pre-NICE Zeta, and then floundered out after back-to-back 2-0's. Liquid, as always, surprised us early in the tournament and then settled down and lost 2-1 to Loud, and 2-0 to PRX.

FPX had a decent time against Liquid in EMEA, and then they beat G2 with 2 maps being a loss and an overtime.

It's undeniable that they are EMEA #1 and close to the top of the global rankings, but these performances are against a worse Liquid, but a better G2.

Personally, I have FPX in the second division of top tier teams, beside the big 3 of Asia : PRX, DRX, and Xeta.

They aren't a super team though. It's the same roster it was for about a year now. Only difference is they added Yay. You brazilians be taking Ls and Ls and keep changing roster and are like "this time we will win", and this was by far the best team you created, the best players in each respective role, and yall still took a fat L by NAs team.

"arent a superteam" LMFAOOO ur on some dumb ass copium holy shit.
Marved top 5 controller,
Yay #1 chamber and top 10 minimum overall player in the world,
Fns easily top 3 igl in the world and judging by his performance on iceland hes just improving,
Victor one of the best aim in the world, best neon WW and raze in NA,
Crashies also like the others, top 5 minimum at his role. Literally everyone on optic is the best in NA in their respective roles and are easily top in the world.
Loud is a 3month old team, with a 17, 18, 22y dudes in their first lan in their life on valorant and your team still needed to go overtime against them to win a team that didnt even Care about losing the tournament because their real dream would be the Champions, Ur embarassing

The only embarassing thing is u needed to type all of this to prove what to who? Nothing changes the fact Brazils best team got 3-0d by NA. So maybe instead of yall giving death threats to other teams, maybe calm down and just hold this L yall got.

cant say m3c is better if they didn't even qualify for iceland, maybe at the end of 2021 but not now
Also I think optic is prob higher but i cant say for sure cuz we haven't seen head-to-head with a lot of these teams

Chet said M3C and FPX were the best EMEA teams that they scrimmed, Saadhak said the best team they scrimmed was also M3C and they didn't practice against FPX, so probably M3C and FPX would give Optic a hard time

Yeah that's fair, I have M3C in the third tier of top teams. That tier is just for teams like Gaurd, Acend, and M3C, who at their peak can win a global tournament with rounds to spare, but if off their game they can lose at a regional level. M3C is great, but they are too inconsistent to be placed at Optic or Loud's level. Those 2 showed some of the most consistent play outside of groups, like stuff we haven't seen since Sentinals in Iceland.

M3C is great, and I love the team a lot. But because of how much I like them I'm very hypocritical of their inconsistencies. If the Iron that out, they can be a top team.

I said M3C is inconsistent. They missed qualifying by 0.02 seconds THEN they got 2-0'ed (13-8, 13-10) by G2. They got second in champs but had close games to Team Secret and Kru (both OT). Aka, a worse loud and a team that tied for last in Masters 1. They don't show up ever game. That's their inconsistentcy. Another example us at the start of EMEA groups : Nats wasn't there. At the end, Deffo wasn't there. If they are all there all the time, then they are easily top 4, But they aren't.

dude said inconsistent for M3C, when they already achieved so much and are actually the most consistent team. I don't know, if u live on mars, but their performance was highly affected by the war between ukrain and russia.

I do have them top 3 global, I just wanted to see if others have them top 3. I just think they are just a smidge worse than Optic and Loud on a statistical sense, but in all reality a series with either the latter or former would be amazing and extremely close, similar to the Grand Finals we got from Masters 1. Once they prove Lan, I'll be much more certain on their position, but due to the poor show overall from G2 and Liquid. It's just hard to call a team that hasn't performed globally 'the best', but based on their results I feel they can be called top 3.

Not sure how Gold 2 managed to win against M3C but uh, M3C is solid against any team in the world. They are just all around good with almost no weak points. Maybe they just lacked some superstar to step up when its needed (they have always lacked that one player when it matters).

Gold 2 are the luckiest team in the west They got a M3C who played 6 games in 8 days 3 on different patch also the FNC game.

To be honest, Im sure they're very good but I don't want to put a team in my top 3 if they've never attended an international tournament. We can hypothesize all we want, but at the end of the day there is uncertainty associated to how they would perform on lan with the pressure of a big event on their shoulders. Very unfortunate circumstances that they weren't able to attend this time.

With that being said, M3C is definitely in my top 3 because they are proven and have strong scrimbux

I agree that EMEA is one of if not the most competitive region, but FPX are still not LAN proven to me. I don't have any concerns with ANGE1, but some of the younger guys with less experience might not put up the same performance they did online in the qualifiers (like what happened with the guard)

If Fpx participated they would have definitely won. Btw Riot banned Russian teams for what is happening with Ukraine. But riot didn’t ban Israel for doing the same thing to Palestine. I see double standards.
