since everybody's saying some players are top 3 im making my list. feel free to drop yours below.
1.crashies
2-5.BcJ
2-5.derrek
2-5.eeiu
2-5.xeta
HM: trent, shaz
crashies is a head above the rest, and BcJ, derrek, xeta, and eeiu are just too close with eachother imo.
EDIT: for those saying shaz should be top 5, I didn't watch champs that much so I didn't see it. sorry
sheahhhh [#9]
- Derek 2. Bcj 3. Crashies 4. Shahz
Crashies kinda overrated cause of his teams performance imo i would never say he is a head above the rest lmao
You’re trolling crashies was insane the whole of last yr
I think this is based too much on this one qualifier, i think a more fair ranking would be
stfk [#19]I think this is based too much on this one qualifier, i think a more fair ranking would be
- Crashies (just undoubtedly the best)
- Bcj (always been really good, super consistant)
- Hiko (gets a lot of hate but is still really dependable and plays really well with his team)
- Shahz (best sova frag wise but still lacks a bit utility wise compared to the big sova nerds)
- Probably Aleko (Leviathan) but a case could be made for eeiu, derrek or effys
Xeta could also be 5th forgot about him

Derrek is undisputedly a top 3 sova player along Crashies and Bcj
Fat_Lard [#23]Derrek is undisputedly a top 3 sova player along Crashies and Bcj
idk about indisputably, he's good but he hasn't really proven that much compared to hiko or shahz imo. A lot of people get recency bias cause of watching him play well, i wouldn't say hes top 3 because of 1 or 2 good series hes had recently
rishu004 [#28]didnt know he was playing vct
he should play orgless and stream all his matches live with no stream delay
number1_ScreaM_fan [#30]he should play orgless and stream all his matches live with no stream delay
he is streaming with no delay. he's just signed with sentinels
Shteam [#31]"Sova NA" means pro or not as long it's in NA.
Then how can you gauge his Sova when he doesnt play pro matches? Are you saying hes a T5 Sova in NA based off ranked and matches he played almost a year ago? i lol'd

Its a team game so Rise has not achieved Sen and 100T status but individually Derrek > Hiko and Shahz

Recency bias? Even before LCQ he was in the conversation and at LCQ he established himself as a top 3 sova. Now he's just continuing his great play and proving that he is a top 3 sova. HiKo is nowhere close. HiKo and Shahz aren't even top 5 either. I'll take eeiu and xeta everyday on sova.
ItzYaBoiNUB [#5]I forgor 💀recency bias but yeah he's definitely top 5 (sorry trent)
u forgot hiko too. he is #1

I really never saw him as a top 5 sova till now. I think 100T bad performance at lcq is hindering from the fact that hiko performed phenomenally well against the best teams in the world (Gambit and acend). Derrek is an amazing sova but he’s fairly new to tier 1 play and calling him top 3 is like calling Trent top 5.

Saying Derrek’s performance is better than shahz is definitely not fair. Shahzam was literally the 17th best performer at champions despite the fact that they lost 2 series and only won 1. Derrek’s online performance has been good during the recent opens and lcq but is incomparable to shahz’s long term performance
pssssss [#48]Are we missing sinatraa or can he not compete with these 5?
B'cuz he is not not playing comp..He is far better than these..the best..

You just can't put HiKo above someone like Derrek because of 2 series though. Derrek has outperformed HiKo in the last couple of NA events and this is coming from a 100T fan. I think HiKo is a great sova and a good player but he's not a better sova than Derrek, xeta, or eeiu.

Yeah that's true
armeena [#17]W list finally someone realizing how insane crashies is
Everyone here is worshipping crashies and you saying finally he's being recognised?
LouBag [#57]His fragging is amazing but his utility usage isn’t quite top tier yet.
