Top NA teams as of today

1. C9 ( probably getting dropped this weekend )
2. V1
3. GUARD
4. OPTIC
5. SEN
6. XSET

Updated as of March 7th. I am giving V1 and Guard the benefit of the doubt because they showed consistency and both came back from deficits. V1 is proven now and Guard will be as of Friday imo. Based off Sentinels puggy play and Optics inconsistencies they both drop. Didn't want to make this list so reactionary but it does look like there is some new dogs in town. Can't take action on C9 yet because they are still unknown against good teams.

XSET looked good but it was against 100T, so I couldn't give them a boost.

Thoughts?

SEN too high

I believe V1 should be higher than sen or make sen no.5

deathlyclaws [#6]

1-C9
2-V1
3-Guard
4-Optic
5-Sen
6-Xset

NRG should have won the series lmao. How can you say V1 is that high, plus very interesting to put a fairly untested Guard over Optic.

Agreed:
C9
V1
Optic

bro nrg almost slurped V1 dry and SEN had it close too but it was a way more comfortable win

6vine [#10]

Agreed:
C9
V1
Optic
Guard
SEN
XSET

We will see when V1 plays Sen but I feel you guys are overreacting to V1's success. Solid team but haven't played any top teams yet with a rookie igl.

Unpopular opinion but OpTic could be first in NA rn, C9 have shown cracks already losing maps in multiple series in group stage.

If u remember optic lost a match unliye C9 who just lost a map

Yes but OpTic have looked better since losing that first match. Imo it was just rust that they had to shake off and they've looked more impressive than C9 in the last 2 weeks.

I can understand this but we don't know yet so I just gave C9 #1 based on general consensus.

6vine [#10]

Agreed:
C9
V1
Optic
Guard
SEN
XSET

you know v1 has not played against anyone on that list and yet somehow you have them at 2nd

Yeah I agree C9 should be considered number 1 until proven otherwise inside the server

Crazy person, to have guard at 2. Possible to get there but who's tested them other than a dogshit 100t and xset where cryo was a bitch. V1 is also an overreaction as every map was a nail bitter against NRG and they haven't played any team on this list yet.

Nice list I actually agree

Basically I said that V1 and Guard are untested so predicting them over Sen and Optic is wild to me.

i'll take v1 over sentinel any day lol

c9
optic
guard
sen
v1
xset

Sen shouldn’t be high up. They have only beaten pk and nrg this year

Senamental [#28]

c9

Let's wait until the V1 vs Sen match and then we will know

Bump!

Mine (based on recent matches and their performances):

1. V1
2. Cloud9 Blue/The Guard
3. OpTiC Gaming
4. Sentinels
5. XSET

Subject to change tho. Still waiting for SEN vs V1 as well as C9 vs. TGRD. Banger matches incoming!

100T will be #1 during Challengers 2 for sure 😤😤

SETSUZA [#18]

you know v1 has not played against anyone on that list and yet somehow you have them at 2nd

? they beat optic (who beat sen btw)

CraigGarth [#35]

mention the year as well 🤣

tttangent [#36]

That doesn’t matter
Sen could still beat V1
Looking kinda slim cuz V1
Look insane and Sen look shaky

kamran [#37]

2022 ^_^

obviously SEN can still beat V1 and that would change the rankings... but as of right now V1 has proven more than SEN has in the current meta, and getting crushed 2-13 on your own map pick is not a great look for SEN...

although it's still groups, so who knows what will happen

1. C9
2. V1
3. Optic
4. Guard
5. Sen
6. Xset

The only one of these i’m conflicted on is whether to put guard above or below optic

6vine [#10]

Agreed:
C9
V1
Optic
Guard
SEN
XSET

sen still too high

are you shahzam?

I would say

1. C9
2. V1
3. The Guard
4. Optic
5. Sentinels
6. XSET
   I think the guard and v1 seem fairly interchangable tho, but besides that this seems like it'll stay this way for a while.

1.GUARD
2.V1
3.C9
4.OPTIC
5.SEN ( look i also love SEN but u know there performance isnt that great as of now )
6.XSET
somewhere in buttom 100Theives

yeah bro from the result last night I could give V1 a bump. We will really know everything when we find out who the 2 masters teams are, where everybody sits. Great win though by V1 showed they're one of the best.

SIRZONE [#45]

1.GUARD
2.V1

c9 is first imo but the top 3 is really undefined because we havent seen any matches between them (next week grd vs c9 is gonna be a troll)

i ranked them according to their win to loss ratio
u can shuffle the top 3 teams , it really doesnt matter , i want C9 vs GUARD .... and V1 vs SEN

Doesn't the placement matter tho. If I was Guard or C9 I would rather LG first round over XSET...

Uh V1 also got crushed 13-2 in their own map pick lmfoan
