what do you think
SEN the best performing NA team, made top 4 with 3 imports...
the next best is g2 which finished top 8
you could swap russia and america. I wouldnt be too mad
Just use 2023 EG for team USA. I know in the VCT jawgemo isn't labeled as an import so he definitely has US citizenship but I guess they might loose apoth and reformed
Curious, is it this year's result only, or you consider previous years as well?
its like 90% this year, 10% past years (russia and brazil havent had full rosters in forever)
well geng bombed out of champs so that why I said you could downgrade korea. it all depends if you think geng had an unlucky tournament or if they genuinely crashed out
They were literally in a group of death. They played two bad games all year internationally, both against SEN. Thats it, so they def deserve first
World Cupppppppppppppppppppppp World cupppppppppppppppp World cuppppppppppppppppppppp
lets play football
Current turkiye players > brazillian players.
besides aspas and sacy brazil hasnt been doing well
only reason brazil are up this high is because of past success
hot take they would be atleast top 2 imo. China has full edg roster and brasil has loud (old loud roster)
this is the problem tho, every taiwan player in the chinese league claims their identity as chinese and not taiwanese (who play in pacific), I didnt want to get in to the political bs so I didnt mention taiwan
I think that's just an intended loophole left by riot to appease both US, Taiwan and China.
Did they say so? Then sorry for that, But world cup requires them the nationality of the country so S1mon can't. (Unless he's dual citizenship) Or that's just because CN league is tier 1 whereas there's no Taiwanese team in Pacific.
It doesn't matter. Most people agree that HongKong belongs to China They still do a separate team in every "world cup"
if it were for all time I would agree, but currently I'd have turkey. their t2 scene is looking insane rn
Yeah xeus is my god but I do think brasil would clear. fuck current form. only reason loud is bad because they have no duelist. bring back aspas and they will be on top again
I think he can run a functional roster but not world class like saadhak does
Leo is russian?
but anyways additional players like
sheydos, nats, vo0kashu, something, shao, suygetsu, cloud, trexx are all good shouts
Is this a hypothetical world cup event or this is based on their performance? Depending on your answer I'm about to say some hot ass takes 😂
Ok, hear me out , kishida on his last straw finally decides to initiate blue lock, or any candidates for prime Minister in order to attract younger voters
Meiy /Absol
Dep
Yatsuka
Xdll
Clz
Import engh( he did wonders changing team of duelists to a good roster)
And they get 6th or even 5th
what would be ur turkish and russian roster if there was a world cup? curious
if you count derke as russian -> derke, nats, trexx, shao, cloud
if you dont count derke as russian = derke -> something
if you dont like something, choose purp0
I would actually take xeus over cned but fair. The problem is when i think about russia and turkey their igls are mid. So I think canada and america clears.
Imagine this canada roster
JonahP
TenZ
FNS
Eeiu
Mada
or something like that. since u said cned and he only plays jett u could also get tenz back on jett and get some1 for mada instead
I think he could run it back and be as good as cned on jett tbh but thats why i said mada. hes the better choice
And for na igl boostio or valyn. both better than nats and mrfalin not even close
Yeah right but then u have to put cned on another role idk if thats the play u know
Bro, I recognize that there aren't many good igl here, but i see that i wouldn't need a saadhak level igl because the players in the other roles would already be insanely good, so there wouldn't be that much of a difference
Taiwan would be kinda crazy
Tvirusluke
S1mon/YHchen (depends if you want a secondary caller)
Spring
Yuicaw
Berlin
Would have one of yuicaw or spring on full time senti and the other on flex. Luke unleashed fully cause he doesn't have to be translating. Very flexible team with very good fragging and can cook up hard with berlin
I don't think they will still perform well if the players come from various teams. What matters most for the CN league players is their teamwork. So far, only EDG, which has maintained their main rosters for three years, has shown that teamwork.
I think Indonesia will be pretty good. Lmemore , f0rsaken, Monyet, mindfreak and xffero / BlaZek1ng.
USA is way to low. zekken, N4RRATE, Valyn, Leaf, Ethan would win this.
well I wasnt too sure, people just have been telling me over and over that japan has incredible tier 2
incredible 💀, u mean they get farm by Rusian ? sure
and their best team is DFM 💀
dfm tbf has bad management and picked up 1 good talent when there is a lot more for japan
This isn't bias but I think Canada > Brazil, at the very least currently
(Also you wrote Childe for Chile and I only noticed because I thought it said Child)
well thats embarrassing. Also I can agree brazil > canada its just that loud has left such a big impression
LOUD has left an impression but if the event were to actually happen, they wouldn't have a very good igl for their roster (saadhak and nzr are both from Argentina so their best choice is probably mazin)
Taiwan's team is hella underrated
Duelist - Spring
Flex - BerLIN
Controller - YHchen (IGL)
Initiator - S1Mon
Sentinel - Yuicaw
In my opinion BerLIN has really good aim and can be a demon if he's not IGLing, the only issue is he ints a lot which ruins his K/D
YHchen as an IGL nearly took a dead and buried JDG team to Champions
S1Mon of course one of the best rookies of 2024, Yuicaw was arguably Wolves and ASE's best player, and Spring is a great talent
yuicaw better than life?
but yeah I agree, I just didnt put taiwan because of political discusssions that I didnt wanna run into to
Yeah he was better on ASE too, you forget he dropped like 100+ kills in the game they lost against DRG
My list of possible country wise teams(not in order of ranking):

xand
Less
I haven't seen jemkin play much but wouldn't something be a better choice?
I mostly agree with this but I can think of some changes
Jemkin -> somthing
Heat -> cauanzin
valyn -> s0m
xand -> literally anyone
nats > vo0kashu, you need an igl
Is xues really that good?
who is ptc and westside??
thats a crazy brazil team
I love nats as a player but in the current meta I think vo0kashu's play style and util is just better in a team dynamic. I still would be okay replacing vo0kashu with nats based on the fact that Nats is one of the best in the world in raw aim and IQ.
I agree that vo0kashu is insane, but realistically who igls russia then?
xues is crazy and for sure should be considered in franchising next year. PTC and westside play in tier 2 and are consistent players, I think PTC also has a surprise potential like what something had when he joined PRX. This is the only brazil team that made sense to me that has players who are still playing/in form.
Why is USA just NA? You have Canada as well and no players from Mexico on it. Just if you have it as NA on purpose put Canada in as well and go Latam rather than chile, Brazil, etc and same for all regions.
Without S1mon I'm not that sure China might be that high.
TW might have a good shoot
If we're going off champs stats, the only countries that could field teams are: (I think? I could be wrong)
China
Korea
Turkey
USA
The best rated players for each team would be (assuming we don't give a shit about roles):

note: after I finish homework, I'll go make a spreadsheet or something and try calculating the best valorant country of 2024 using total stats across the year (may use acs as a marker because china moment)
