2021: Chronicle Ace Against Kru
2022: SUYGETSU AIMS!
THE RESET!
ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!
4 KILLS FOR THE FINAL BLOW!
or
The most iconic clutch ever (Ardiis 3k against DRX)
2023: Cove
2024: KangKang Angel of Death (guardian 4k against TH up 11-9)
2025: PRX Losing a 12-1 lead against TL but managing to win in OT off a Patitek whiff
Did I cook?
"this is tenz's world and we're just living in it" is more iconic than chron ace
i mean yeah the clip is nothing too crazy but it's basically the moment tenz became the face of valorant and it gets quoted very frequently
yeah, I don't know how I forgot it, the play + call is iconic. It was Tenz first Sen game and he did that against my fav team at the time (LG). Maybe that's why I didn't want to remember it.
2022 could be the crashies ace on rope and 2024 could be wo0t 4k jett knives at shanghai but yeah these are solid
I forgot about the crashies ace on rope that's def top 3.
Idk about the 2024 one. I think the KangKang 4k is easily the most iconic play of the year.
i feel like the crashies missed kill on sacy on ascent at champs 22 is prolly more iconic
also the wo0t play was good but not a defining play of the year (i would prolly lean more towards the forsaken 1v5 vs edg)
I mean considering the 1v5 from f0rsaken was the best clip from madrid, the wo0t clip was prob the best one from shanghai, and KK guardian was the best from champs, id say it was pretty defining of the year as it really showed his talent to such a large scale
2023 also had its moments tbf but yeah imo 2022 and 2024 just pop out the most to me
Yeah 2023 is great forsure, but the best things to happen that year aren't really singular moments like the 11-3 comeback from FNC or EG cooking at Champs. I think the most iconic 2023 moment is COVE, which is kinda sad ngl unless I'm forgetting something. 2025 is actually lacking singular iconic moments so far, but I believe in Champs.
tbf for 2025 we were under the tyrannical reign of tejo for the majority of it and then we come into toronto with a foggy ahh meta so players really haven't been able to stabilize yet. hopefully champs delivers
That's true, I literally saw no one defending the tejo meta. Genuinely the most horrible one to watch. Toronto had decently good moments with SiuFatBB and PRX shenanigans, but the meta shift did affect it quite a bit I agree.
I pray for the most insane champs to date.
with pacific, china, emea looking strong I am praying on my knees that americas decides to fucking step it up
2021
"thats my name" -tenz
2022
Nothing exciting
2023
Shittier year for VCT in general
2024
TenZ Ace vs TH
"Who are they peeking??"
2025
TenZ' crashout vs TL
Most iconic moment in 2025 moment will be the EDG vs PRX grand finale tournament point where the two teams somehow start knife fighting
demon1 most iconic play for sure
idk if it's more iconic than cove though
Why is the crashies fracture ace not here? I would consider that #1 all time.
because ardiis 3k clutch is arguably the greatest clutch of all time and suygetsu aim reset is an insane play + caster call to win the entire tournament. They are just as iconic if not more.
also way more impactful than the crashies fracture ace
2022 in general has like multiple moments that could be top 1 in different years imo
most iconic for Americas sure
But I feel like the most iconic moment overall has to be done on the international stage for sure
2021
"tenz world"
2022
Ardiis 1v3
2023
Alfajer 1v2 yellow
2024
Forsaken 1v5 vs EDG
2025
Jawg 1v4 on Abyss vs T1
I've seen no one mentionning it but I think Tenz's ace against TH "welcome back to the international stage Tenz" has to be in the convo. The clip is nuts, Pansy's casting was great and it's very to "represent" the year
That was hype ngl. It was also the first round of masters madrid and it went off with a classic tenz ace
