like right now?
prx - strong individuals, good anti, very strong map pool
rrq - unique ideas and approach to the meta, become way less of the jemkin show cause other individuals have stepped up
T1 - individual talent on this team is incredible, just pure firepower is insane and they know how to lean into it
th - woot riens combo, strong ideas, strong anti, strong map pool
fnc - goat igl, some of the most consistent fraggers of all time an incredibly consistent support player in crashies and a super rookie from kaajak
liquid - superstar senti, smokes, initiator players and very strong flex and duelist player with one of the best player turned igls weve seen in nats, underrated coaching staff aswell, the fnc ascent anti was amazing
G2 - absurd individual level, incredible fundamentals, strong map pool, they just play every aspect of the game well
sen - strong coaching staff/igl combo, good approach to the game, very strong individuals if narrate is fragging the team looks amazing
xlg? - not a big china watcher, but i think xlg should be better at champs than they were at Toronto but tbh idk
tln? - if they repeat something like that DRX game vs RRQ i think they deserve to be on the list because they looked GOOD in that game, very strong anti, incredible mechanical talent on the team and the rookies are starting to pop
nrg?

too many variables for what you value and what constitutes the same team, like does one player swap count as a new team or are we rating orgs?

List for Franchised League (since Jan 2023)

FNC (2 International trophies back to back and multi domestic trophies)
PRX (1 international trophy and domestic trophies and extremely in form currently)
SEN (1 international trophy (2 including before 2023))
GenG (1 international trophy and 1 runner up result)
EDG (1 champs but not in form)
EG (1 champs but not in form and completely different roster at this point)
TH (1 EWC if you count that and multiple runner ups)
T1 (1 international trophy but fell off pretty hard)
G2 (0 international trophies and 1 domestic trophy but it is hard to debate they are much worse than the teams above them)
Liquid (1 domestic trophy and in form)

this list is definitely different if you are including all of competitive Valorant before 2023. Optic, Gambit, Loud and even Ascend would be on there but I think some of those are too old to consider these days. Like Loud is a completely different roster and have not looked as good since their 2022 champs win

I think I would substitute Optic in for GenG, They haven't showed any results in the last year and yay + Optic in general had a major effect on the meta during that time period

First should be 2023 EG.
That team made Demon1 looks unstoppable. And, plus even boostio was acing back then and yeah I think all the possible reasons applies here too.

Furia: urangoat
PRX: most talented roster, each of these players could be a star player on any roster.
Fnatic: Meta inventers, best strats, best discipline, best igl, with Alfa, Chron and Kaajak they have 3 top 10 players in the world.
G2: Valyn is 2nd best igl in the world, Leaf, Jawg and Trent are top 3 in their individual roles. Yes Jawg is top 3 duelist in the world, stats aren't everything. Especially on G2
1. SEN LMFOAOAOFAOFOAOAOOAOA JKKKKKKKKKKK
TH: They won Esports world circus against PRX so we gotta respect them but by no means should they be considered to win Champs.
T1: ig they have a bunch of really good players but fuck em anyway.
XLG: Probably gonna win both splits with a roster change, even though they flopped on the international stage, their domestic dominance cannot be ignored this season.
Gen.G idc that they didn't qual for champs. They're in the hardest region and somehow they're missing something to win trophies this season. At their peak they can be the best team itw. But rarely happens so 8th
RRQ: Didn't put them higher because they have a crazy guy. nah all jokes aside they're really good but I don't see them make it far internationally, just my opinion
Liquid: Have only gotten better every single time they play. Can go on a really deep run. didn't put them higher because haven't really performed internationally this year.
Honorable mention SEN: ig zekken is kinda good and john quality tactics actually does have some quality tactics.
