they need to save strats to stop being Choke9 and missing out on so many events

he is rated rn. ive seen threads calling him best duelist itw

I forgot about kamyk. but Kaajak is literally farming nobodies. I cant even name 1 player from there that has been in EMEA tier 1 other than the players on Apeks

u dont even have a KOI flair on lmaoo

NAVI boutta dismantle your team in 9 hours

Polish talent in this game is ass (other than Zeek and Starxo). stfu

Sheydos right?

bro is on KOI, yet he has gone negative in only 3/13 games.

plus Gambit Sheydos was the 4th best thing to come out of Gambit after Chronicle, nAts, and Engh

KOI: Sheydos

no order in each tier of ranking
End of 2023 Ranking:
S: EG, LOUD, FNC
A: NAVI, FUT, GIANTS
B: NRG, TL, KRU
C: LEV, VIT
D: KOI, TH, C9, SEN
F: 100T, FURIA, MIBR, KC, BBL

This is an end of 2023 ranking (end of Champions 2023).
Tell me if any teams are too high, too low, or wrong.

group stage standings

LMAO

my Omen One-way and Brimstone goat - Bonecold

higher chances of 100T losing to EG and LOUD than EG losing to MIBR and 100T

NRG fans need to pray on 100T downfall and C9 beating KRU

I think NRG is beating C9

how is everyone else on this site so delusional

G2 vs KRU
C9 vs KRU
C9 vs NRG
SEN vs G2
EG vs 100T
100T vs LOUD
LEV vs LOUD

matches to not watch:
FURIA vs MIBR
EG vs MIBR
LEV vs FURIA

they easily could if they win against LEV somehow (possible cuz its LOUD)

If we go for the most likely match scores: (Imma have LOUD and 100T wake up to make this interesting)

Matches that matter:

G2 2-0 KRU, NRG 2-0 C9, KRU 2-1 C9, SEN 2-1 G2, LOUD 2-1 LEV, 100T 2-1 EG, LOUD 2-0 100T

Matches that don't matter:

FURIA 2-0 MIBR, LEV 2-0 FURIA, EG 2-0 MIBR

1. LEV 8-2, Maps 18-6
2. SEN 7-3, Maps 15-7
3. G2 6-4, Maps 14-9
4. KRU 6-4, Maps 14-11
5. LOUD 5-5, Maps 13-12
6. 100T 5-5, Maps 11-11
7. NRG 5-5, Maps 11-11
8. EG 5-5, 12-13
9. C9 5-5, Maps 12-14
10. FUR 3-7, Maps 8-15
11. MIBR 0-10, Maps 1-20

Im saying. AMERICAS is ass this year. C9 will lose that match.

FUCK NAVI BROOO

FNS was boutta go negative in all 10 EMEA series he has had
(GAMBIT, ACEND, GUILD, FPX(EU), TEAM LIQUID, KOI, GIANTS, NAVI, FNATIC, TEAM LIQUID)

1. SEN
   tier break (small size)
2. G2
3. LEV
   tier break (medium size)
4. EG
5. NRG
6. C9
7. KRU
8. FURIA
9. 100T
10. LOUD
11. MIBR

AMERICAS except SEN boutta disappoint at champions lmao. This is the worst the region has looked since start of franchising.

the only change I have btw is NRG > C9

W

like I want FNS and Ethan to win. but the fans are so annoying and delusional holy f

its just KRU lmao

I put Meteor over now that I gave it more thought

2. cNed
3. Chronicle
4. TenZ
5. ScreaM
6. Derke
7. Yay
8. Zeek
9. SicK
10. Sheydos

zeek wasnt goat unfortunately
but...
RB wasnt top 10 of 2022 or top 20 of 2023.

zeek better for 1 year. Rb better for 2 years. sadge

https://www.vlr.gg/348461/fut-esports-vs-leviat-n-champions-tour-2024-masters-shanghai-r3

whas bigger. -3 or -9

stupid question

I was gonna write: "note - im counting chamber as duelist"

i knew someone would say this.

but technically, you are right and im about to change this list

Benjy >>>

bump for more replies

I do, but his career is over lmao
He needs to stream, more money for him, more content for me

watch when FNS leaves NRG after this VCT year ends

when you are biased asfuck ^

FNS cant make international events over the age of 32. Unlike Ange1, who made 6 when he was 32-33.

you are coping

why r u making me hate TH for being the best in the world?

stop.

yes unfortunately
this is very sad for me (my Canadian goat)

stfu lmao.

only losing to Team Heretics twice (2nd best team in the world) and once to BBL in a close series

way better than NRG regardless

NAVI management kicked d00mbr0s for some reason. not his fault

Suygetsu > Shao > D00mbr0s > Ange1 > Ardiis > Zyppan

also got a top 4 in Tokyo and top 5 in LOCK//IN with Ardiis

Keep watching. This is a must win for NRG

im talking about the "cringe comps"
the reference is to when OPTIC got upset by XERXIA in 2022 Reykjavik. In post-match interview, I believe Chet said something like the "cringe comps got us" and it was a big meme at the time.

EG has h2h on NRG. NRG need way more than that.
possibly 100T could beat EG and then both EG and 100T go 5-5. But c9 kru or g2 also need to go 5-5 and then NRG and 100T have to somehow be better in the map differential or round differentials against EG and C9/KRU/G2

EG is not losing to MIBR
NRG needs 100T to lose to both EG and LOUD

they have stolen so many

the ones I remember are M3C split comp in 2022
now also FNATIC split 2024

true for Sliggy (which is annoying)

Sideshow Sliggy Lothar SeanGares >>>
I have 1 small problem with 1 of Lothar's non-valorant opinions, but it is still fun and there is a lot of variety of content he has with Valorant.

I feel so bad. Top 5 Flex of all time (with Chronicle, F0rsaken, Sayf, wo0t) and has to be on this team (throwing rounds left and right)

im talking about rn u idiot

NRG were good at the start of the year, but fell off in Stage 1

GIANTX arent bad tho lmao.

According to EU teams and Sliggy, they have done really good in scrims, but they crumbled during matches.

In that NAVI match, they didnt have pressure (basically eliminated), so they won.

Even I predicted that GIANTX would win that match: https://www.vlr.gg/353163/natus-vincere-vs-giantx-champions-tour-2024-emea-stage-2-w2/#3

Today, again, GIANTX didnt have much pressure. They performed pretty well against Heretics.
