another list underestimating GENG after they dominated madrid and recovered from their burnout smh

Underestimating Geng? i put them 4th.

Madrid doesn't hold too much weight imo. Loud only beat china to make playoffs, PRX was trying to still gel with Monyet. KC and TH was still rookies to internationals. Sen played like 100 series with their current team.

geng played the same amount of series as sen since kickoff (more since they qualified for playoffs)
they're top 3 minimum

I still don't rate SEN highly as a international team, Why should GENG be higher because they beat DRX and T1? As i said in other comments, this is mid playoffs. It will change after their performance tomorrow against PRX

and? GenG also went 3-3 with worse round diff too
both of them had their setbacks in groups, SEN would've made playoffs in every group besides AMER alpha and EMEA omega(not by record, just in general)
therefore this point is mute unless you also think SEN would be 4th at shanghai and have a similar recovery in playoffs that GenG did
edit: "4th at madrid -> 4th at shanghai"

you are underrating FPX they will take out one of the americas teams in groups to go in plaoffs and DRG might also do the same if LEV isnt in the groups

I agree gen g aren't as good as people think
They caught people off with some new tech that's it
Team heritics have a long future but are doing great no where near Sen I feel like I'm biased but very little Sen are just recovering from burnout.
Sen have a high ceiling people just don't see it

I feel like Sen had alot of success due to how active they were in the off season, it translated to well to kickoff. Now every team has caught up and overtaken them with stage experience.

Team heretics with W00T is far better than sentinels

I disagree maybe in the future yes th would be better but a non burntout sentinels agaisnt th would win because even with th having stage experience sen will have some advantages like sacy and tenz and zellsis who have so much of stage exp
2025 i asssume th best team in world no doubt

I would have to agree with you if it weren't for Madrid. In Madrid, the EMEA region looked significantly weaker compared to the other regions and was objectively the third worst performing region. If I applied the same assessment to this upcoming Shanghai tournament, then I believe this tier list accurately reflects the performance of the 3 regions.

Summary: This tier list assumes that the 4 regions will perform similarly to how they did in Madrid.

I feel like this is kind of an unfair way of looking at TH. They were 2 rounds off of beating SEN, who were the eventual winners of Madrid, then had to play a team tied for the most top 4 finishes in international events and again, nearly won. And they did all that with a stand in who's firepower wasn't anywhere near the level of the competition, as well as 3 complete rookies who's only tier 1 experience was kickoff.

Now that they have Wo0t, as well as some more experience as a roster, I expect them to make a deep run at Shanghai

zerphyr this is just delusional. TH is definitely the 2nd best team ITW rn, after that you can favor one of 3 teams. 100t (imo), FUT, or Lev
GenG is nowhere near 2nd best team itw, we are getting recency biased by a game where they had everything going for them compared to a slight edge to T1 in the first game

starting off, DRX just choked vs GenG, i still think they are the better team on a neutral play field, and GenG is better on a neutral play field than T1
first game;
T1 had momentum
result T1 2-1
second game:
T1 played an awful comp map 1, and were coming off a lose, while GenG had momentum and the rematch curse/wyatt's law
4 things going for GenG, ofc they were gonna win

“My name is Zardinez, and I approve this rating.”

Upsets might happen ofc, but I think you have the best list I’ve seen. MAYBE GenG + 100T over fut but tbh I’m very high on fut rn. They’re prx level good individually.

I know this is an outdated list but no one is to going to convince me that FUT are playing better Valorant than 100T, GenG and LEV. There's a power gap between them and Team Heretics. They just lost to the 'washed FNC' in the most mid best of 5 I've seen. PRX and TH are absolutely the two best teams in Shanghai. GenG should be the dark horse in this race.
