y'all not ready for this discussion
but G2 valyn is clearly the best player in the world
he is an insane igl, given by his results this past year (#3 shanghai, #7/8 champs, #2 regionally) and in history (2023 ascension, 2022 challengers stage 1)
he's also an insane fragger, as you can see here even if the game was muddy asf he hit the kill record and went band for band with aspas: https://www.vlr.gg/337414/g2-esports-vs-leviat-n-champions-tour-2024-americas-stage-1-lbf
he's also insanely experienced at his role, see: https://www.vlr.gg/player/3885/valyn/?timespan=all
he hasn't gone below 1.05 lifetime rating for any smokes agent other than harbor despite being the fucking igl
and now with 4 solid players on his team playing their roles perfectly, and a really good coach, honestly nothing stands between him and astralis level domination
imo having valyn on a team is like having two players. its like having the brains of fns and the mechanics and gamesense of s0m.
g2 is winning it all, four trophies by 2027 i guarantee it
best player in the world
Patoow14 [#2]KangKang is still the best player at the moment
kangkang not even the best player on his team bro
chichoo and smoggy were (idk rn i havent watched cn) more consistent at champs
and lets not forget about the first 6 letters of my vlr tag, another insane fragging igl who i think is easily top 5 players itw maybe top 3

Conceit [#17]Don't know about it yet but he's def a top 3 igl itw right now, he really just needs to win an international trophy and then I'd say he should be in the conversation. Looks like this is his best chance to do so so I hope they do :)
100% agree he actually could be number one for me rn. I feel like we are transitioning to an era where igls need to be able to frag. Some other igls might be better fraggers than valyn like kingg but kinggs igling seems weaker compared to alot of other igls. I feel like boaster fns and boostio seem to call good games but their fragging is not going well. Valyn is a pretty perfect balance because he is an amazing caller and did amazing calling for g2 last year and frags out heavy too.

yeah nah bro lol saying this just mean you don't watch EDG enough. KK is actually goated his consistency as a duelist is something people talk about for generations. EDG have relied on that so many times.
