i’ll repeat it, i didnt include the start of 2026 because its irrelevant to the debate so i used the “the year isn’t over yet” argument to leave it out. if alfajer had gotten a top 4 at masters i would include it
when did i do that? which period did he win just by farming c9 and furia?
the amount of false equivalences youre using is insane. if alfajer had managed a top 4 at masters like less did in every start of year stretch he won, id consider adding 2026. as it stands its completely irrelevant to the debate
i literally used the same argument to give mid 2024 to alfajer
because the year isnt over and the start of 2026 is irrelevant to the debate. if alfajer had made a masters final i would consider giving it to him
the main criteria for all of this was individual performance. saying alfajer had a better individual performance at champions 23 just because of rating shows you didnt watch the event and are only looking at vlr stats. he faced weaker teams, played half the rounds, and on top of that lost twice to less
im not even going to address your 2025 argument. you seem to have forgotten that vitality won kickoff and got top 4 at masters
saying alfajer was better overall depends entirely on your criteria. ive always seen him as way more inconsistent than less but some people will disagree and thats fine
ive seen a lot of people saying there is no debate between less and alfajer, that alfajer is way better etc
that usually comes from people who started watching valorant recently
im going year by year to show the debate is completely valid
start of 2022 → less
masters finalist with great individual performance
alfajer wasnt even on fnatic yet
mid 2022 → alfajer
joins fnatic and already has a strong impact
less has a more average stretch
end of 2022 → less
champions winner with an insane performance
alfajer was good but not on the same level
—
start of 2023 → less
even in a loss, he was individually better than alfajer at lock in
mid 2023 → alfajer
absolute peak
tokyo mvp one of the highest peaks ever
end of 2023 → less
had the better performance at champions
—
start of 2024 → less
insane level at kickoff and masters
mid 2024 → alfajer
good regionally, mid internationally
less was good regionally but didnt qualify
end of 2024 → alfajer
good both regionally and internationally
—
start of 2025 → less
good regional, mid international
alfajer was good regionally but didnt qualify internationally
mid/end of 2025 → alfajer
maintains a high level
overall score: 6-6
—
saying alfajer is better is fair
it comes down to criteria
but acting like there is no debate between less and alfajer is just ignorance
100t were the absolute favorites for this match. 7.00 odds is insane

thats not how valorant works. by that logic it would be eg > nrg
he literally had an international performance in 2024 that outdid alfajer toronto rating
honestly this is getting kinda tiring. people say this every time an sa team beats an na team as if every na team just suddenly got worse
out of all 25 players on SA teams only 5 are from NA
bro is to furia what trembo was to aspas
imagine when they found out erde wasnt even the igl of lev academy
lukxo has way too much ego for someone with 2 wins in 12 matches
Chat: would you play smokes at the world cup?
Lukxo: nah. chat im gonna be real with you. why would i, the best sentinel in brasil, play smokes? makes no sense.
Chat: because we want you and less together at the world cup
Lukxo: if you want less with me, then he can play smokes, let me stay on sentinel. i love less but… im better.
finally. those were some painful times seeing you say derke had better 22 than aspas
and the craziest part is they didnt even invest that much it was mostly roster synergy and players stepping up
é engraçado como a melhor fase da história da furia veio logo depois da pior offseason. eles simplesmente pareciam o pior time do mundo naquela época
came back to vlr recently and gotta admit i missed ragebaits like this. you almost got me
99% of people didnt expect this level of success this fast
shaw was coming off one of the worst runs ever with furia in stage 2 2025
artzin was basically discarded from mibr after a terrible champions
eeiu left 100t looking pretty replaceable
koalanoob was coming back after failing in emea
nerve was just a random tier 2 veteran that no one really believed in
and alym was the only one with some hype but still nowhere near star level
to give you an idea: furia was competing with eg (lol) for alym and with loud (???) for artzin and eeiu was pretty much a last minute pickup. this wasnt a roster being fought over by top teams or anything quite the opposite
furia looked like the best team itw against nrg. like nrg werent even playing bad and still got completely stomped
ag got completely stomped by g2 and their only win was a close match against the weakest team in playoffs. they are good but i dont think theyre that close to g2 in the rankings
honestly any of the top 6 teams could beat each other on a good day
hes had the highest rating of the year since 23. how is that not consistency? if he isnt consistent then who is?
shaw had been saying for weeks that he was going to pick prx. he has a plan
its impressive how your worst tier list is always the next one
he said something like "i think facing international teams will be easier than facing the CN teams."
believe me however harmful gambling might be its not even one millionth as destructive as a literal war
more important than ewc but less important than masters
aspas played 6 matches against mada in 25/26. in 5 of those 6 matches he had more FKs than mada. your argument is weak.
read it knowing that each chapter is massive and that the protagonist isnt perfect or invincible from the start
i remember that when i read LOTM 2 i was honestly caught off guard by how bold the author was. i wont go into details to avoid spoilers but you might have already seen people talk about it
we are going to humiliate this weak bronzilian team today. there is not even the slightest chance we lose to mibr. baitpass lol
it is going to be the easiest 3-0 in history 😭🔥
yeah they are just way too good. its time to accept our inevitable defeat
MIBR bans Split
Furia picks Split???
