Ryukk [#2]The year with only fnatic, eg and prx dominated? What a boring year
the INT events were fire tbh
AstroGalaxy [#3]the INT events were fire tbh
Well tokyo clears shanghai kinda agree, but dont know if this champs can do better than LA
GARY123 [#7]was a good year but the meta being raze-viper-skye in like 5 maps wasn't that great to me
Then Jett double initiator on the other 2
Ryukk [#8]Well tokyo clears shanghai kinda agree, but dont know if this champs can do better than LA
I think it can and probably will because of the level of competition in it compared to last years groups
Ryukk [#2]The year with only fnatic, eg and prx dominated? What a boring year
Boring if you supported Talon true
Diebs [#6]the meta was boring in 2022 and 2023 this year's meta is fun to watch as a viewer and level of play will increase in champs

i doubt it can. how many storylines are going in this champs? i cant think much but i can think of so many for the last one. fnatic winning 3 times in row. jingg last dance. evil genius miracle run. group of disappointment being the group of death.
Lock//in was so hype because of crowd + seeing teams for first time
Regular season/playoffs emea was boring apart from KC being melons which was funny af
Regular season/playoffs pacific was boring
Regular season americas was hype with underdogs EG and C9
Americas playoffs was hype af with EG upsets C9 choking etc
Tokyo was hype with EG underdog run, CN first win with EDG beating navi. T1, and Loud, NRG Cove +Ardiis sage wall, FNC v EG upper final
EMEA LCQ was only intresting because of KC otherwise boring
PAC lcq was boring af
Americas LCQ was so hype with Sen v 100T match of the century +C9 choke + Kru "Go on a run??? the 0-9 team is gonna go on a run?"
Champs was amazing we got NRG v BLG twice (FNS ARE YOU OK??), DRX resurgence, EDG v Loud, Loud beating fnc in revenge twice, Eg being the villiansEG v PRX upper, EG v Loud lower, EG v PRX final , EG winning the whole thing after being the worst team in americas. Demon1 proving all the haters wrong (Fuck the haters, respect my fucking name, im the best player in this game)
peaced [#19]people dick riding 2022 is crazy, literally everyone wanted chamber and astra gone at the time. 2023 had both the healthiest meta and the best storylines this game has seen (FNC icebox and their uprising, PRX something, entirety of EG, SEN’s very dramatic collapse, C9 revitalized, EDG, etc etc).
W take
nobody___100 [#31]2022 (perfect, prime optic loud fpx prx drx and strong teams otherwise too)
2023 (fnc dominance)
2024 (no champs yet)
2021 (0c0nd)
2020 (nothing)
fax 2022 was the best year for valorant
911dot [#25]1st-2022
2nd,3rd-2023/2021 (Both debatable)
4th-2024
MEGA GAP5th-2020
edit: Reason I put 2024 4th place is because of the shit format in the Masters...
Bro,
Masters format is good because you don't whom you will face next because of Swiss stage and the teams need to prepare all the maps to make itto playoffs.
Main reason is because your great map might be their best map so you have to ban your great map and pick another map
I hope you understood 😬😬😬
NRG: TheAceGamer30 is notably critical of NRG, often expressing doubt about their performance and consistency. He has commented that despite having a successful roster with championship pedigree, NRG hasn't shown anything special lately and suggests that they might not be on the level of top teams like LOUD or Fnatic (VLR.gg) (VLR.gg).
Sentinels (SEN): He has a strong allegiance to Sentinels, frequently defending them and supporting their players. He believes in the potential of players like Zellsis and Zekken, often stating that they outperform other prominent players (VLR.gg) (VLR.gg). Despite acknowledging some of Sentinels' struggles, he maintains that they have what it takes to succeed in major events.
General Player Opinions: TheAceGamer30 isn't shy about sharing his thoughts on individual performances. For instance, he has praised players like Marved and expressed skepticism about others, urging fans to be realistic about their teams' capabilities. He tends to take a balanced approach, recognizing talent while also calling out underperformance (VLR.gg) (VLR.gg).
Other Teams: His discussions extend beyond just NRG and Sentinels. He engages in debates about teams like 100 Thieves and KRÜ Esports, often highlighting the competitive dynamics between these teams and expressing his opinions on their strategies and roster changes (VLR.gg) (VLR.gg).

Patch, I agree!
But neck to neck competition i would go with 2024!

The storylines will come up once we're there, right now there are a few like Prx v Sen redemption, likely there'll be China v boostio, and probably TH finally being able to not choke a GF if they end up winning which would be a MASSIVE storyline if it happens
Diebs [#6]the meta was boring in 2022 and 2023 this year's meta is fun to watch as a viewer and level of play will increase in champs
This year will be the only champs that's actually significantly higher in level of play compared to the masters of the same year because many teams are actually competing this year and a lot of big name teams didn't end up making it.
This'll be the first 16 team even where it actually gets harder due to having 16 teams attend where there's enough room for all the best teams

NRG revenge arc too vs BLG and also FNS and s0m taking this team to the grand finals. What an insane storyline

definitely and the fact that there are better teams coming from China as well rather than being edg and friends(blg the goat) helps significantly

Give up buddy NRG ain't even making it
AstroGalaxy [#3]the INT events were fire tbh
