the fact that SEN would be up 8-5 rn if not for 1v3 pistol and 1v2 t3xture op

Copenhagen vibes but too short

Fuck rats

Sliggy calling Tarik "face of Valorant" kekw and only reason he is watchpartying with others is because the "face of valorant came knocking"

???????
bro??

Champs Playoffs Ranking: 2022 > 2023 > 2021
Champs Groups Ranking: 2021 > 2022 > 2023

overall 2023 is 3rd

the only thing fun in champs 2023 group was BLG vs NRG memes, NAVI LOUD DRX group games (intense bangers), and EDG vs GIA games. Champs 2021 and Champs 2022 had way more interesting groups with way more bangers/drama/etc.

Discuss Pre-show Here

IM GETTING COPENHAGEN VIBES BRO. (best masters of Valorant so far for reference)

this gonna be BEST CHAMPIONS BRO??

Aura crazy + c0m wanting carry again too funny

they see everyone putting them 4th in the group.

they boutta destroy that group now.

FENIS s0m ardiis or
Sliggy or Lothar maybe
dont be a main stream NPC lmfao

wasnt irrelevant mickey mouse bro tf?

prize money exists. trophy exists. fame for being the first trophy winner in franchising exists.

lmfaoo

well AMERICAS had 2 in 2023 actually (LOCK//IN Sao Paulo and Champions 2023 Los Angeles)

didnt see pacificers complaining as much

nAts defined lurk meta and viper cypher setups that I have seen still being used today and nAts in Berlin 2021 was insaneeee

definitely top 1

Gambit was one of the first teams I watched when I started watching Valorant and I watched nAts all the way from Stage 3 2021 to Berlin 2021 to Champions 2021

it is nAts > Chronicle > cNed > TenZ > ScreaM for top 5

maybe cNed and TenZ is debatable, but the rest is guaranteed

when you didnt watch VCT in 2021 ^

actually retarded bro for trying to defend TenZ > nAts in 2021

TenZ played against teams like F4Q (streamers) 2x in Berlin.

also nAts is #2 2021 if you look at all the stats instead of just rating lmfao (M3 Berlin MVP)

you failed vlr brain check bro

TENZ?????

bro
nAts and Chronicle easily take top 2 of 2021. did you even watch during 2021 GAMBIT bro?
cNed is #3 2021 and TenZ is #4 2021

????????????????????

shut the fuck up bro

Yay clears 2022

???????

Leo MVP with #1 rating from teams in LOCK//IN Playoffs. Demon1 didnt even exist yet.

https://www.vlr.gg/event/stats/1494/champions-tour-2023-masters-tokyo
Leo #2 rating (after Alfajer). Demon1 #11 rating

https://www.vlr.gg/event/stats/1657/valorant-champions-2023
Demon1 is #1 rating. Leo is #3 rating (.06 behind Demon1) and look at the Assist PR and KAST bro (insane impact).

Leo wins in stats, trophies, consistency, and is the GOAT initiator for a reason!!! Wake up.

bro he wasnt even the MVP
look how stupid this site is for upfragging you

Nats best player of 2021
Yay best player of 2022
Leo best player of 2023

Everyone here agrees/knows this right?

Top 20 players of every year:
https://www.vlr.gg/371303/top-20-players-vlr-edition/

His comparison to Derke is kinda dumb tho no.

Yay has played 32 games internationally while Derke has played 37 games internationally (remember Derke wasn’t playing for FNC in Reykjavik 2022 due to Covid). Also yay has played 6 b05s since he has been in lower final more times and Derke only in 3 b05s.

The reason Yay has a number of games close to Derke despite attending 3 less events is because optic always lost extra matches in uppers of group stage and playoffs. Ex. Optic won Reykjavik in 8 games while FNC won Tokyo in 4 games

dont need the $25 tho kekw

OMG

Im more excited for FNC vs BLG on Tarik Stream tho. Ardiis, Fns, s0m watchparty together gonna be crazy

nope LMAO

Ardiis is the GOAT streamer bro:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4SByWM_cYg

Nukkye he used to Igl for g2 emea

https://x.com/joejedwards/status/1818265674042552438
Some random on twitter said it was me

I advocated for a pretty similar roster right lmao

Please tell me this KOI roster is real though. Gonna be a hella fun team to watch

This is the only role not dominated by emea players since every emea Igl is on smokes other than MrFaliN

No lmao

Everyone rates them highly rn meaning they aren't gonna be good. That’s just how it works.

SEN 2-0 GENG (1 map is close)
TH 2-0 FPX (TH dominant win with no maps being close)

And then we get NA vs EU giga banger in upper qualification game in Group B

W I have same top 3

There were 2 tier 1 German teams in EMEA 2022 (BIG and FOKUS) and now we have none. MOUZ or CGN it is.

Otherwise Apeks or GoNext

why not count lockin???

the top 5 teams in lockin (FNC LOUD NAVI DRX NRG) were the same top 5 in Champions 2022 (LOUD OPTIC(NRG) DRX FPX(NAVI) FNC)

PRX vs FNC/FUT/TH finals is possible

GENG has 0% chance. Even Talon has higher chance bro

Includes LOCK//IN || Updated until Champs 2024 (179 slots)
12/12:
11:
10: FNATIC, PRX
9: KRU, VS/DRX
8: ENVY/OPTC/NRG
7: TL, LOUD, X10/XIA/TLN, EDG
6: FPX(EU)/NAVI, SEN
5: FUT, LEV, ZETA, FPX(CN)
4: TH, 100T, GENG, T1
3: TGRD/G2(NA), EG, FUR, BREN/SECRET, CR
2: VIT, KC, GMB, ACE, G2(EU), GIANTS/GX, C9, XSET, VIKINGS, KEYD, BLG
1: SMB, GUILD, KOI, BBL, V1, MIBR, NIP, SHARKS, LIBERTY, RRQ, GE, FULLSENSE, BOOM, NUTURN, F4Q, NTH, DFM, ASE, DRG, TRACE

Copy pasted list

Champs 2021 was in Germany and time zones were too good

Also TH is bad on Split and FNC is good on Lotus

Seems a little biased against BUMEA map pool change but it is for next year so it doesn’t matter ig

PRX 2-0 G2*

SEN 2-0 GENG*

I will become an AMERICAS fan and abandon EMEA.
That is how confident I am in FNATIC 100:0 BLG

geng 0% actually. no team gonna do a back to back like FNATIC (FNATIC are the goat team lol)

He's pickable. Throw cam above B nest on Defense (covers mid and B, put a trip at B wherever for your team and throw a trip deep tube at start of round). Banger setup winning me multiple rounds

FUT 50%
TH 48%
FNC 1%
VIT 1%
every other team 0%

the way MrFaliN was staring in the conference tells me bro trust

G2 is also going 0-2 bro. Valyn nervous

LMAO. same

ok he is prob higher in rating by very tiny amount that is rounded off.

but nAts is literally better in more stats bro and with eye test and all the clutches and moments, everyone on this site agrees that nAts is the mvp
Chronicle was really close second, but nAts just too good unluckily (dw Chronicle is the goat of the game bro)

btw nAts and Chronicle were the top 2 players of 2021 overall so we dont have to argue.

https://www.vlr.gg/event/stats/466/valorant-champions-tour-stage-3-masters-berlin

MVP of Berlin is nAts
Chronicle is higher only cuz of alphabetical order but nAts has better stats than Chronicle

but vlr rating shit, I have personal better information on previous events than vlr rating.

imagine lose to a team called bilibili LMFAOOO

bro their name is too funny bruhhhh LMAO

You're sick

???

this isnt a bait lol
