Lead his team, KRU, to a 3-0 start to the season, easily cementing KRU as the number 1 team in South America, and his position as a top 5 duelist.
zekken
Pretty simple, led his team along with TenZ to a Masters win, though to be entirely honest, I feel like TenZ deserved the Madrid MVP a little more,. Regardless zekken is still a cracked duelist.
Oxy
A total curveball to all fans of tier 1 who didn't keep up with tier 2 last season was Oxy. Most fans of NA Challengers knew that Oxy was absolutely cracked, but many were wondering when he would get a real chance on the tier one stage. Safe to say Shanghai is on the cards for him.
Aspas
Stats don't lie, 47 frags on 1 map is absolutely insane, and going double positive on the series with 68 frags is insane. Aspas going to Lev was the greatest move he could have made for his career, it was like Kevin Durant going to the Warriors. One of the greatest in the world joining a super team to dominate. We'll have to see how it plays out at Shanghai however.
Demon1
The hate for Demon1 post-2023 was completely unprecedented and absurd. He won MVP at LA, absolutely dominated at Tokyo and cemented his legacy at EG within the span of 2 tournaments. He was the peoples champion until he wasn't, when he went to NRG and suddenly after a single bad map at Kickoff playoffs he's suddenly "Diamond1" and washed. I understand Sentinels are the #1 NA, and that they absolutely deserve all their success, but NRG is still one of the best teams in the world right now and this split has been total proof of that. He stomped Loud, stomped Furia, and with any luck will stomp Lev tonight.
Edit: not sure why the numbering of the list is doing that, but it's a descending list, fifth at the top and first at the bottom. i dont really know how to fix it, if i do ill remove this edit.
mid org, mid players, mid performance.
i mean nobody can truly give them a confident ranking yet. all they did was beat an ascension team and now they are in playoffs. tbf that game looked really clean from EG, and i think i definitely ranked them 1 or 2 spaces too low, but for the most part i dont think they stand a chance in playoffs.

in my defense I see them as roughly equal in strength I just gave furia the edge.
im def a gen.g fan but they haven't proved that they are the best team yet
I did this with Americas and thought it looked pretty well so I figured I would do the same for Pacific. For context I definitely do NOT watch nearly as much Pacific due to living in the U.S. and the time zone difference, but I have watched enough to make what I believe to be a decent list.
Always open to some feedback and open discussion!
this has got to be the worst Americas list I have ever seen.
that is a scorching hot take bro. i dont think i could see nrg any lower than 2 lol.
okay look. most people are REALLY mad at me over my Furia take, and i honestly can't say i put them that low for any reason other than a gut feeling.
this list is my predictions for the end of season, not current, and i just dont think that Furia can keep up this form. the highest i could put them is 7 and in place of g2, and truthfully i do think as of right now they are better than g2.
honestly looking back at it g2 should be a bit lower and furia a tad higher, but apart from that i stand by my list.
After watching the first three days of Americas kickoff, I'd say I've watched enough to confidently rank teams for the season.
open to some friendly debate :)
edit 1: okay, okay, ive come to my senses about furia and decided to bump them up quite a bit, hopefully this looks a bit more fair from my previous list. i also swapped g2 and 100T.
