HEAR ME OUT. Since Champs existed i don't think there ever was a winner who was the best team of the year. Ofc the champs winner deserves it but i do thinks it's a matter of circumstance rather than consistency

Loud 22 and arguably EG 23 in terms of peak

for the year yea, but in terms of peak I think its arguable, like at their very best EG was incredible

oh for sure it's arguable but i feel like in valorant champs doesn't really show the best team of the year just the hottest team right at that point

Thats every game, you can be good for the entire year but if youre a little worse on that one day then youll lose, vice versa too. Best teams also need to be the most consistent teams imo.

And at their peak, teams like EG and PRX hadnt peaked either, its hard to say which is why I said arguably. Though I dont think PRX peak is higher than FNC peak, but I think EG could match up.

ignore my flair for a minute, can you just justify this take for me? I legitimately don't get it, considering how they performed at champs and who they played.

For me personally the way FPX played was smarter and better for the whole year than Loud for the year (Including regionals) But LOUD was undoubtedly the best team at champs, but not for the entire year IMO

To be fair optic was really consistent too but then again loud not getting a skip to playoffs at Copenhagen was ridiculous

Ok Loud were def the best team ITW at the end but they also were grouped by optic at copenhagen so going into champs they were NOT the favorites to win it all

The team that wins champs IS THE BEST ITW. Everyone knows champs is the biggest of the year. So the best team will make sure to be in peak form during champs.

While I disagree with your opinion, I think the post was more asking about the best team of the year before champs

For example, 2023 fnatic won 2 lans, so they would likely be considered the best of the year going into champs, but they couldn't win champs

If GenG were the best they wouldnt have lost to 4th seed NA team who didnt deserved to be in champs

yeah i agree actually

2021- Gambit best, Acend won
2022- Optic best, LOUD won
2023- Fnatic best, EG won
2024- Gen.G best, NotGen.G won

2 tournaments in a row seems like the limit for teams lmao
