Americas League: 1st in Assists, 1st in APR
Masters Tokyo: 1st in Assists, 2nd in APR (401 rounds)
Champions 2023: 1st in Assists, 1st in APR (459 rounds)

Not to mention he was the leaguewide assists leader in all 3 regions with a 47 differential ahead of #2.

Genuinely, I was team aspas before but after I dug up these stats it completely changed my perspective.

I wanted the GOAT to be Chronicle so badly, but after looking at this, I also agree that I was misguided.

Put both aspas and Ethan over him, and I have no more stats to twist to confirm my own bias 😔

I guess we ALL just have to agree that Ethan is the GOAT of Valorant and Aspas is a close second

put $10k on Chronicle to be the GOAT by the end of the year and completely lost it all why couldn’t he fucking do it man aspas and Ethan are just clearly so much better

very disappointing, my favorite player chronicle is so cool, it's just upsetting to me that he'll never overtake players like Ethan and Aspas

He can't even overtake his own teammate Alfajer at this rate

sad day to be Chronicle fans like us

I mean I like Ethan more than Aspas, and the stats are good, but Aspas is still clearly the frontrunner here.

they're two very different type of players so it's hard to compare. aspas is a fragger, ethan is a support player. but the fact that ethan is the only player to win 2 champions, and was elite even back in 2021, makes me want to lean him now.

tbh on a team which wins titles
nobody is carried.

demon1- killing role
jawgemo- sacrificing his role and playing smokes cuz of demon1 and vica versa for demon1
boostio- igl and shoots back too sometimes
ethan- the post states it
c0m- his util was good and his flanks too, he too had good impact

bro, why are we just lying for no reason. Demon1 was the highest rated in his team every time. 100t was just nitr0 and hiko. Also consider the number of intls hes been to. 2 in 2023, 1 in 2021 and 1 in 2025. Ethan is rly fucking good but just making up shit is not helping

this guy, he was probably baiting but i also saw some other ppl actually believe this in the past too so i figured i had to dispel this narrative.

If anything 2023 EG did way better as a team than individually ethan was the only already good player on it and it showed pretty much as soon as management fumbled the roster because they were cheaping out

#45

yeah and that's kinda why i hate fluke narratives. if anything, peaking that highly as a team instead of as individuals is more impressive than superteams.

While i do not think ethan got carried in the slightest, I do think there an argument can be made that he was the least impactful on the team during the champs run. Not because he wasn't great or anything, but because the other 4 players were absolutely insane. It's between him or c0m, but champs c0m had the best sova utility i've ever seen in valorant so I'm leaning towards ethan being the "worst". Overall though yeah he was like 2nd or 3rd best on 2023 eg.

#29

ethan was the second best clutcher at champs 23 though. that in itself makes him one of the most impactful players

boostio was their worst player in champs but that does not mean he wasn’t bad

#32

and boostio was arguably best igl and was shooting back relatively well, demon1 was demon1, jawgemo was frying and went nuclear in the gf, and c0m was insanely clutch and one of the best sova. Saying ethan was a little less impactful than those 4 is no knock on him at all.

In reality it was definitely a team effort, but I saw this Ethan revisionism, had to say somethin about it.

also had some bum saying jawgemo got carried by demon1 during champs

it’s actually comedic how people forget that valorant is a TEAM game at the end of the day, they all did their jobs to support demon1 and vice versa

not only supporting demon1 jawg was also up there with him in fragging too

didn't say he got carried, just that he was clearly the worst player on the team

Frags

which is also not true. boostio was not better than Ethan from an individual standpoint. and as good as c0m was individually, there is a genuine argument to be made that ethan was better than him too.

#58
jawn

Frags
+

boostio was the caller and better individually over the whole year, c0m also had way more impact than ethan even if we entirely forget about fragging

also you just pulled up the stats page and looked at it for a cool 5 seconds to build your whole argument

you just pulled up the stats page and looked at it for a cool 5 seconds to build your whole argument

nah he was 2nd in rating on EG in americas and tokyo. I just pulled up these to bring attention to the sheer absurdity of them. also eyetest wise he was clearly a top 10 player in the world that year and his util usage had so much impact, i remember watching the livestream and seeing so many of demon1 and jawgemo's kills coming from blinded enemies. not to mention he wasn't just a util merchant, he was trading super well and winning clutches.

if you want to give boostio the edge for his calling. i guess. but saying he was better individually over the whole year has to be ragebait lmao. no way you actually believe that shit.

#60
jawn

Frags

all you pulled up is a compilation of qraxs ass stats, which is respectable he is one of the greatest at util usage but it doesn't change the fact that he was in fact the worst player in that squad.

yes boostio was better individually, if you don't agree watch those vods back

#61
Yistyy

Frags

genuinely how. please give me examples. the only time i remember of boostio being definitively better is the match against fut when he was going absolutely nuclear. aside from that, he was solid and respectable especially for an igl, but not better than ethan.

#64
jawn

Frags

OP impact and the amount of first engagements he had was absurd, he would match jawg and demon1 on round opening duels while on an island AND while calling, actively taking those crucial 50-50s and winning will always be more impressive individually than trading

prime boostio one of the greatest IGLs ever

how the fuck did he become so washed

probably no motivation, bro hasn't played the game outside of scrims in probably 2 years

you're right about his awping was super impactful but he was also overextending way too much and getting instantly traded. i also think there is way more to the game then fragging which is also why i made this post. ethan has proved you can win by controlling the game and setting his teammates up for success.

#69

Frags

i also have never denied that, he was just the worst player in that squad and he cannot be that high in GOAT lists

#70

Frags

but that's where we disagree, just because he wasn't a primary fragger does not make him the worst player in that squad. you seem to neglect the value in a player when they have a more supportive role.

everyone was glazing ethan in late 23 and after champs he was rightfully rated as the best support player itw

ethan just really didn't have his "moment" in 23

jawgemo grand final
demon1 all year

ethan isnt really a 'highlight reel' type of player and I think that's why people underrate him these days, everyone gets so excited over flashy kills and insane plays

Nobody will call him the goat (he is my n2 goat, as a blind person, but n1 if I'm being objective) because his job is to shine the others shoes and not walk around while being shiny
