VCT Theory (bruh idk)

Based on Valorant International Events

Breif Summary at the bottom of the post

Masters Reykjavik (Sentinels/Gamibt/Acent )
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the first International Event by Riot Sentinels defeats Fnatic 3-0 going 9-0 in all of Stage 2, after that they enter Stage 3 in hopes to get a ticket to Berlin which Sentinels win Stage 3 following with 100 Thiefs in second and ENVY in third.

With Sentinels winning Stage 2 without dropping a single map to winning Stage 3 with only a few maps dropped they seemed the dominant team which would all crumble as they will be defeted by ENVY 2-0. While Sentinels doesnt advance ENVY defeating 100T advancing to Finals against Gambit, scoring goes Gambit 3-0 ENVY.

And thats when Valorant Champions was the next match, after 3 stages this was the final one of the year and the one with the biggest prize pool, the challenge began from group stage with 16 teams to begin they had to pick 8 of the worlds best, in Group A, Acent defeat ENVY, which would lead to ENVY being elimiated in the lower braket against X10 2-1.

Follwing in Group B we will see Sentinels defeat FURIA 2-1 but to be disappointed by Liquid as they take Sentinels to lossers braket after lossing 2-1 and being eliminated by KRU 2-1 ending ENVY and Sentinels run at Valorant Champions. Group C, Gambit the former Champions will win their spot in Champions defeating Team Secret and Team Vikings 2-1.

In Valorant Champions Acent and Gambit would face off to win the years championship with Gambit going for a back to back and Acent on for their first championship, Acent 3-2 Gambit making the Acent the Champions. Now ending of the year Sentinels win Reykjavik , Gambit winning Berlin, and Acent winning Champions to end Valorant Champions Tour 2021.

Now heres where my theory begins at the start of VCT 2022 in the EMEA region for Stage 1 the Champions Acent fail to qualify for playoffs falling of at Group Staget , now while MC3 (Gambit) does make it into playoffs they lose to Fnatic in the Upper Semifinals and losing to G2 in Losers braket eliminating Acent and Gambit from Stage 1 Reykjavik (2022).

Moving over to NA Stage 1 Sentinels will also be defeated by The Guard in uppers just to go down by Version1 in lowers, fully eliminating them from Stage 1 Reykjavik following all the 2021 VCT champions. Where Optic ( ENVY) goes to win Stage 1 Reykjavik (2022).

As of right now all 3 teams seem try and have a "Rise and Fall and Rise Again" type of momment but only time will tell what happens in the following weeks

Summary

• Every team that has won a Internatioal Riot tornament has either fallen behind, get studyed the most or loses their grove

the team that could adapt with a sub won vct eu stage 1. it's not that hard to understand? i dont see your point. are you saying acend is still on top?

kristof [#11]

hopefully they prove they're on top this stage but they definitely were not on top during stage 1.

Lol no I'm not saying Acend is the best in EMEA rn... just making a point that they aren't that bad as people think they are....they couldn't adapt to the sub that's it and Zeek is one of the best in Acend alongside cNed....they definitely have gone down in standards recently but people are downplaying them a lot recently cz of their performance with a sub last Challengers. They definitely aren't at their prime like Champions 2021 after the whole VK shit obviously but they aren't as bad as people think they are

if winning champions dont make them a top team than idk what does

this means there has yet to be a really consistent team that never falls off

kristof [#19]

they won champions sure but they had a bad performance in stage 1, yeah they played with a sub but you can't say they're still the same team that won champions because they replaced their IGL. it's just not true (yet) that Acend ARE on top. it is true that they WERE on top though.

they still have the core tho
and honestly looking at how vakk and monster plays they are definitely an upgrade after bonecold and kiles

zzzzzzzzz [#20]

i mean SEN did consistently on top for first year (as far as local since that is alll the compeittion available at that time), which is longest everyone has so far

Aaahhh yes the water is wet

Maybe DRX?
Even though they didn't do anything much during the lan events, but they have dominated the whole kr scene yet
And they also had an awesome showing this masters, so yeah...
