You are free to put up Yours too

This year the best player should be give to Cned, he's not only the best jett but also a great battle sage.
Reason why not nats, because no one even knew him till masters Berlin except the CIS people. Whereas cned always had been performing. Theres a reason why after acend won masters 1, this team was called cned n friendz. His individual impact is incomparable to any other player.

Imo for the year 2021
Best player - cned
Best team in the World - Acend
The most improved team - KRU
The most improved player - L1NK/Jamppi
Biggest upset team - Vision Strikers
Best match - GMB vs KRU
Most consistent player - Shahzam and nAts
Most consistent team - GMB (you guys can help me out here, cannot think of any team that has been consistent throughout the year)
Most underrated player - Zeek/leaf/dubstep(there are many others too, but this one is my personal opinion)
Most entertaining player in-game - Bunny/Pati
Most entertaining player off-game - Boaster
Best VCT Tournament - Champions/Masters Reykjavik

You are free to add any other suitable titles.

sen was best in the world first half of the year but fell off second, gambit was good first half but missed iceland, then was good again so theyre probably slightly better?

Do not take this the wrong way. But sentinels was not the best team for the first half of the year. Definitely the best team in NA but since there were no international competition till Iceland. Hard to say they were the best team of the first half of the year with the only competition they were playing were within their region. Just my opinion.

I think Gambit was the best team all year. Would be even more impressive if they made Iceland but they made Berlin and champions and were 1st or 2nd in both events.

VS < C9 < Fnatic < KRU < Gambit < Acend

not to mention C9 lost to liquid too, and i would also rate SEN over them, maybe secret/X10 too

X10 overperformed and has a much better record than VS at this point by taking down both Keyd Stars and Envy (although Envy looked like shit after they lost to Acend). Secret, not so much when they just beat Team Vikings and CR.

Nowhere in my post I hated on X10? do you even mean what "overperformed" means? The team that was close to me shittin on in my post was TS for god's sake. Also, you need mental help when you keep responding to your own comments through your alt account.

bro you talking about x10 performing and you didnt even realize that 100T became the best team in the world when ACE won CHamps, they literally were the only team in Berlin that were able to take down both gambit and ACE both teams being hte ones to win the biggest valo tourneys. 100T best performance of the year no cap literally actually 100% not even imagining trolling

As a VS fan: I agree. They are too textbook style and are not too good at being flexible. But the team will work on that going into 2022 so there is still hope for the Korea region.

I could be wrong here, but in both intl event they participated, they were the clear fav to win the whole thing, but they did not manage to beat any big teams out there, excpet acend in masters berlin grp A. They lost to GMB in qtrs in Berlin, then lost to both FNC n C9B in Champs. Personally i had high hopes for them seeing them in grp D with FNC n C9B, that they will qualify for playoffs as 1st seed. For me they were the biggest upset based of the hype that was created around there name.

#20

at masters it seemed like they got upset but after 2 events i think they were just overrated by people, the only good team they beat was acend when they were struggling and lost to 100T

Bruh they not overrated, well I wouldn’t say they are best team but definetly top 5. Probably most unlucky team. I am sure that everyone will agree that they would have completely destroyed envy or sentinels. Could have easily made playoffs in another group. I wouldn’t say they are the best but definetly top 5. Above them would be fnatic, c9, gambit, liquid, maybe ascend. So maybe they are 6th best team?

#71

NAH DUDE 100T BEST TEAM IN THE WORLD UNLUCKY ACE HAD TO FACE THEM THAT TOURNEY NGL IF 100T TRIED AND GOT TO CHAMPIONS THEY WOULD WIPE THE FLOOR AGAIN WITH ACE AND GMB AND THEY WOULD GO AGAINSTT KKRU IN THE FINALS AND THEY WOULD STILL WIPE THEM THEYRE ACTUALLY THE BEST TEAM IN TEH WORLD MAN NOT EVEN TROLLING

Kru is better, Sen is probably better, and x10 might be better aswell. top5 is a really big stretch, and i think they are overrated when people had them at top3 or favorites to win champions

I still think Gambit was the best team of the year. Easily sweeping through the previous tourney, and if you look at stats for their match vs Acend, they had undeniably better statistics, kind of unlucky they lost. (not to discredit Acend tho)

For the best tourney, I'd say M3 and Champs, Reykjavik was kinda anticlimactic

#34
Fracture

Frags

A hot take personally but I don't think that Acend should get team of the year based off of their championship. I think that best team of the year should be for top consistently performing team of the year which would either be Sentinels or Gambit. I understand there is a seperate award here for most consistent team but I genuinely think they are one and the same imo.

I'm happy to be proven wrong but Acend really struggled up to live up to expectations until this tournament and I think that knocks them down from being the best team of the year despite obviously being the first Valorant Champions.

Also on another note most underrated player has to be Sushiboys and it's not even close imho... mans popped off and got X10 from nowhere to somewhere in the champions tourney.

#47
eSBee

Frags

No kapp but i also wanted to put sushiboys in the list but was not sure if he was the right call or not.
I can agree on GMB being the team of the year, tbh it is very close b/w acend n GMB since acend won the biggest tournament of the year
Acend did gave many downs this year, especially while playing qualifiers for masters iceland, but after that i believe their graph was pretty much growing.

#61
Fracture

Frags

The issue with Acend for me is that they just struggled up until this series. Didn't qualify for Reykjavik. Got knocked out in the QF at Berlin by Vision Strikers. Like to me it just seems that they struggled massivley in compariosn to Gambit imo. I still think Gambit have had more consistent success in regional tournaments having won Berlin and having come second in Champs.

Also yes, Sushiboys is a beast considering he was playing KJ most of the time.

#74
eSBee

Frags

GMB sure is more consistent than Acend but we can not deny the fact that acend beat gmb in 2 consecutive faceoffs. there is a difference in being consistent n being the best. The fact Acend won the tournament playing among the elites of the world, makes it clear that they are the better team rn. But GMB on the other hand made it to the finals of 2 consecutive intl event, are the best in their region, always making it to the top 4 of majority of tournament tells that GMB is a more Consistent team than others

#58

with that argument then only Gambit can win best team of the year, Sentinels won masters 1 ( same as acend) and masters 2 ( Acend won champions) and both were knocked out in quarters in masters 3.

#60

Okay then we put Gambit down as the best team of the year lol. But I don't think Acend get it automatically for winning Champions.

Most consistent team is SEN imo. They’ve been one of, if not the best team in their region. They won Reykjavik, they underperformed in Berlin but they still finished top 8. They didn’t make the playoffs in champs but they still played great against Liquid and if not for the errors in Split, they could’ve been the 1st seed in their group. And then being up 8-4 in Haven T-side and Split Ct… they still had the chance to close it out.

#38

but that means they arent consistent cause well they were still out in groups no matter how close

i believe it’s between SEN and Gambit on most consistent but Gambit still missed Iceland while SEN didn’t miss any international event, but it’s just my opinion, and i wouldn’t disagree on Gambit either

they were the most consistent team till master iceland, after that their performance has just been deteriorating. Got eliminated in qtrs in berlin n did not even made it out of their resp grp in champs. I dont think they deserve the title of being consistent

Gambit was imo the team of the year, they won CIS Masters 1, Masters 3 Berlin, and they were runners up in Champions.
