If SMB convincingly stomp PRX I'll agree and change my rankings. But for now it seems like they were just on a hot streak during qualifiers.

I do think there's more upset potential there than people realize but I don't think PRX win. Maybe they take a map and make another one close though.

Yeah hot streak against G2 and Acend, definitely just lucky.

Well yeah but then they got stomped by Gambit and they just got stomped by Acend.

Probably but I'm curious how they perform against Havan Liberty. If it's a bigger stomp than 100T's match was, I'll believe it for sure

Acend and smb have been in shambles in this tournament so far so its only fair.

C9 should be below rise, SMB a bit low… and nuturn could be a tad lower

Very very close losses both times they missed on EMEA finals qualification and the teams who beat them are much higher, so I think BDS can be at the very bottom of top 20

Rise will be much lower once ESIC report comes out KEKW

Nuturn will be insane with Hyeoni and they already looked good before

Fnatic still placed 2nd in the world at Iceland, they have the potential to get back to that level, Rise for example is nowhere near that

placed 2nd playing only post-plant meta, riot nerf post plant -> Fnatic lose every match

I would for sure move Vision Strikers down for the time being although they were very impressive today. Its their first match against EMEA/NA and I'd like to see more of them before ranking them so highly.

I mean that’s like saying Cleveland Cavaliers have the potential to be a top team since they have won a Championship with Lebron years back… It may have happened but things changed, teams get worse and teams get better.

did you just look at the rankings and make this because there is no way anyone would put Fnatic over FPX or Guild. dont get me wrong Fnatic are not bad , they are in the same level as TSM i would say. remove TNL and BDS and also nuturn should be below liquid since screams brother is joining. vivo keyd should between f4q and tsm. also i think 100t can be better than VS since most of VS's plays use up a lot of utilities and since 100t plays kayo that would be good against them. and also every member out aims VS i think

LOL you think FPX should be anywhere on this list, your entire opinion is irrelevant

That's years back, this was ~3 months ago... if the Cavs won a championship in late May and played another one in early September of course they would be a top contender

what is the point of ranking more than like top 8, it's way too abstract to try to matchup teams that have never played each other nor even made it to international competition

It's about how fast the game changes. And the game changed significantly enough for them to be thrown out of top 6 in EU. not even EMEA.

A month in valorant basically equals a year normal sports. The amount of change that happens within a month is still crazy compared to a year in a sport. Esports is a fast, and always changing view with some teams being completely changed within a month compared to normal sports changing in a year.

But you can’t put them over Guild, NaVi, Tenstar or some others. And not even close if you add other regions
