Restore Germany at its former glory

Maybe Yay DESERVES A SPOT

Hm YAY

Key notes: there are 15 international events since 2021 including EWC which I will count . I don't care what you think . That is as relevant as Bangkok or Madrid minimum
Not only trophies , but also Factors such as impact, influence and how their presence revolutionized the gameplay.

1.Chronicle------ Most decorated player with 3 trophies (Multiple regionals won) 6 finals appearances. 8 times TOP 4 finishes, …. only bad year overall was 2022 and it's because of situation out of his hand they were affected

2.Leo------- Best player in my opinion. Has 2 trophies and 1 MVP on top of that and 2023 best player . He is the most completed player I will say .Game sense, Mechanics , util usage, clutches and I have seen him play without mistakes. A player that still which on 2025 initiators use as book and still need to catch to his level of play. For me is nr.1 but has not the longevity of Chronicle so I will be objective here.

3.Derke-----WILD TAKE...but for me he slightly edges Aspas . He always has been on top of his game since beginning of VCT. 2 trophies won 3 finals (several regionals)

3.ASPAS----I see him as good as Derke both proved to win trophy outside their super team , but as I said two factors 1.LONGEVITY and 2.FLEXIBILITY...2 things Derke slightly edges him.. and as a pure entry also Derke is better and is also a good midrounder and caller(still debatable) ... 3 times top 3 champs is no easy feat

5.Tenz-----The face of Valorant.. proved his worth in 2021 and 2024 with 2 different roles , 2 different rosters....Unfortunately had unlucky or bad 2022 and 2023 performances

6. Forsaken----Best flex player 3 finals and several TOP 4 finishes. Proven to be best APAC player now with the recent trophy. I iwll say most consistent player ever(not Leo peak , but had a huger longevity). 1MVP....I can rank him higher , but I don't want to be affected by recency bias ...althouhg he deserves TOP 5 over Tenz , but TENZ FAME IS SOMETHING

7.Boaster----best IGL has proven his calls are in top of his game. of course is a bit different when you compare him with the different players on this list and his mechanical skills made him drop casue he should have been top 5 if not of that aspect. Either way he is the only IGL doing that sicne day 1

8.Nats----2021 best player... 2 finals 1 trophy ....Best sentinel player (viper and cypher best player) 1 MVP...Unfortunately 2022 was unlucky for the whole Gambit roster and on 2023 he got respectable palcements and a win aganist Fnatic in final... Carried his team in 2024 and 2025 he is looking as good as ever and on top of that IGLing hs team...He is on same book as Leo when it comes to players who are particullary owners of specific role or gameplay(Master of lurk)...He is top 5 most influential players for sure.

9.Sacy ----- on par with LEO in term of util usage and calling ability. He also has 2 trophies and 3 finals. While his mechanics sometimes and inconsistency were an issue, he was stepping up when it mattered the most and proven why he is a champion

10.Kang Kang---- pride of underdog region. You might discuss EDG win was a fluke or not , but you can't deny this guy is the face of an entire region and won 2024 most important trophy and with a record 111 Kills in a BO5 in the biggest game of the year and got MVP . Solid for all the last years even when China was not a league .

Master 2 was a more serious tournament....I will slightly edge it better than EWC (or you can say equal) since the other factors other than prize pool and team number made it worse......but you cant convince me a 8 team event 500K PRIZE POOL is not mickey mouse.....

hasn't EMEA sent your teams in home at events?...All your finals are 8 tournament trophies... 500k 8 teams vs 1.25M 16 teams ...shows what tournament is better....

Can your favourite farmer league fraud retire as soon as possible?
He is taking the spot of other upcoming tier 2 talents, one decent tournament and he has become an absolute waste of player slot for franchising.
If he doesnt retire this year his legacy will be being the worst duelist in the worst league, shameful and disrespectful to the viewers...

I meant as winner ...are are pushing it to Dembele that is why

Bro Raphina was a clear contender(top 3) , but the agenda is pushing it to Lamine Yamal and

Me personally would be happy with Nuno Mendes...hot take

I really liked Cuanzin since Lock In .... especially his skye was great
I usually like good inititator players

I mean it's up to you...It would make it so you have 1 month at least.........still up to you if you change it or not, but this can look better deal

LETS MAKE A BET IF THEY DONT FINISH I will keep Philippines and TS logo for the rest of 2025....you on the other hand use my flair and flag if you wish(I won't force you to a bad bet)

I didn't say they will get relegated I just said they will finish bottom 4

they fumbled most of season and lets say they will pick up 5/5 wins somehow......they will have 6 champs points which BME already has 5 points from Stage 1 alone(all BME needs is 2 wins......only if they get top 4 in playoffs they can overcome BME)

I mean Dos9 is there and is only Khazak pro I am thinking rn

he needs to go to China and he can be the first player to play to all regions

TS,GE and Japanese teams will get the bottom 4 so the worst they can have is go to ascensions

bye to Reyna players

Def Forsaken is the safest guy

Boaster is a good Astra player so he is not screwed and ofc not Chronicle he is flex player

Let's be honest we all don't care about DRX ...but Mako will always be respected by me as PRX fan

PRX - Something(can name other players , but this guy is hated more than them)....but Leo is my fav all time(he can come back and own the region again)...Cned came back and played well also

maybe he meant this split....plus season is not same as year

in football terms .....Bayern Munich

Consistent . Almost every time goes in respectable top finishes. Have their ups and downs , but overall 2nd best team in terms of consistency (REAL MADRID is bigger (Fnatic in this case)). Their domestic rivals envys them.. hate them or not they are good.

Demon1 in big 2025

i will say... Vertigo - abyss( you can fall of the map in both maps)

the same region which shat on NA and sending them home every event

Do I get refund in case of him becoming washed?

they are in same conditions why blame .....is not like some are LAN some are not...I don't quite get this LAN AND OFFLINE...for me leagues take to long and seem very pointless sometimes......league matches should be offline ...and this way we can finish them sooner and make space in the schedule for more VCT internationals

and DFM vs PRX 13-1 is lowest point of PRX fan
as for EDG VS PRX in champs 2024 I was so surprised and disappointed in same time (couldn't even react ... just stared there ...and smoggy 4k with sheriff on C lotus was just not neccesary)

m3c VS TL...last match of gambit roster and lost in LCQ vs TL( scream team)

very weak argument ...all the best teams were there in EWC

and they were monitored and valid games ..... they cant have LAN qualifieres in middle of VCT

issue is they qualified to that event ... didn't get invited

No regional or master 1 event has 1.25 M $ prize pool

And EG whole miracle came from the fact that 100TH couldnt beat MIBR playing with assistant coach.....

They were not prepared mentally that final...either way they lost it

Finally someone who can understand simple logic.....to me all EMEA teams have been the dominant winner of the events......not Ascend (hit a fluke run tbh) but either way if they lost final that would still be a win for EMEA as Gambit was other finalist...

Just to let you know....the only masters NA has won are Master 1 trophies

First one 10 team event
Other one FPX (best team of best region then) missed due to visa issues
Other one was a 8 team event(failed to qualify for next next)
One of champs was gifted by Loud because they beat Fnatic twice and didnt let them face EG (FNC would be crowd champ winner(lost only to Loud whole year and a game vs Liquid in EMEA league....even as PRX fan l have to agree to that)
Loud the saviour of your region.... twice

You cant argue to Berlin master Gambit were best team there
Champs 2021 didnt like the winner tbh but still 2 EMEA finalists...
FPX wonderful lower bracket run....sadly PRX lost that game but amazing from FPX
Lock in while the format has to be discussed a 32 team event is not mickey mouse
Tokyo Fnatic....best on top form
EWC bigger prize pool than master 1 and slightly bigger than master 2 also....maybe the hype not that big but still a very serious event

As for Pacific winners they all deserve it...maybe T1 was fluke same as Sentinel 2nd

EDG tbh was kinda fluke

5 finals already in 15 international events.

And chronicle has been part of 6 finals already
That is VALORANT heritage.

In the last 5 events and EMEA team has been finalist 4 times(twice in last event)

Chronicle, alfajer , Boaster, Benjyfishy, boo...these are investments from the past not from the last year, but from the past

(Bro is not Jose Mourinho)😭🙏

They might not win it*....l had them on my radar , but while yall called them washed and finished l knew the team potential And in beginign of the year l had them as Champs winner.

Also there is a comment on PRX tik tok post when they disqualified from Kickoff and predicted PRX vs FNC being the final.
