saw this question on reddit and wanted to ask here because I’m curious
got into valorant because of tenz. became a fan of all the sen players during their 2021 run. it was glorious to see them dominant and i’m still their fan to this day.
1) The first team: I liked their playstyle in 2013 and the next a few seasons, they are still not bad in that game.
2) The second team: They spoke Russian and played really cool for years, the next years they had good rosters in other games.
3) The third team: They played very cool and their logos were lit (and still it is), a few years later they signed a roster with Rus-speaking players in anpther game (in Valorant).
You can guess them all. A few hours later I'll edit this comment and add them
P.S. 1) Cloud9 2) Gambit 3) FunPlus Phoenix
Because of TheGrefg (spanish CC) and later the fact that they signed Mixwell made me like the team even more
2021 late february when there were rumours that fnatic were going to acquire a valorant roster, was excited to see them play and became a fan after that intense challengers stage 2 final vs liquid
I was a yay fan before masters Berlin and ended up becoming a fan of the entire team. Still have optic flair but I support NRG now
wardell for tsm and i watched a match between vlt and ge during the start of indian valo and ge were losing and started supporting them
hopped on twitch, saw tgrd vs faze, put 20 on tgrd, won, watched more of their matches, became a fan
When I started playing Valorant, I used to be a hardcore Yoru main. I didn't know that Valorant also had an Esports circuit. So when I first started watching VCT, legit every team and player considered Yoru to be a literal troll pick, let alone picking him in an actual match. Then I stumbled across Paper Rex (until then I was a casual watcher), who happened to be using Yoru quite a lot in their games, and getting so much success playing him. I also found their playstyle so fun to watch, and hence I became a fan.

The first team i saw play was 100t against tsm i believe for like first strike final i think, i fell in love instantly
team I never heard of did well in the first tournament I watched think the became 3rd or something, so they were underdogs and then just stick with them
at first I thought PRX were just cracked aimers and w gaming haha,
but then I saw how they love to innovate some crazy comps and make it work even in top tier competitions
They did yoru last year in both masters (got #4 and #2), reyna this year in pacific league (#1), then they made gekko actually feasible and got 3rd place in Tokyo?!?! Super exciting to watch
PRX pulling out yoru at Copenhagen and almost winning the whole thing, highly based
was originally a guard fan, got excited to watch them at reykjavik but since they were in playoffs the only team I could root for in the group stage was OpTic
.Fast forward to the the Guard vs OpTic rematch and the Guard's game against PRX and i just decide to bandwagon to the other NA team.
I thhen proceed to watch them win the whole tournament and ever since then I've let daddy call.
The insanely high gameplay I watched from Karmine Corp made it hard not to become a fan
