END OF WEEK 3 POWER RANKINGS

1. OpTic Gaming
   Dominant and FNS. Although they faced Sentinels with two subs, they've defeated teams with ease other than the one Icebox map against C9. 5-0 looks to be incoming as well as another trip to Masters, this time in Copenhagen.

2. 100 Thieves
   Other than losing to TSM for the fourth time this 2022 season, 100 Thieves played incredibly well against the favorites coming in before that match and 2-0ed them in 13-4 and 13-9 performances.

3. XSET
   They lost to 100 Thieves, but they did look great in 4-0 games against NRG and Ghost which are very good teams in their groups. Better map picks should allow them to do well in the playoffs and hopefully not finish 4th.

4. Ghost Gaming
   They managed in back-to-back wins to beat The Guard and NRG, two teams that were favored coming in before the match, and they beat them easily. Ghost has a good future coming into these playoffs.

5. Evil Geniuses
   They aren't the best team in the group, but they have shown solid performances against LG and SEN. Their match against C9 did have Xeta on it, so they look to end well with matches against OpTic and FaZe

6. Cloud 9
   Although they lost to FaZe today in a 2-0 that no one saw coming, expect some role changes with Curry and Vanity that will make them start winning. They have their remaining matches against LG and SEN.

7. Luminosity.
   Their schedule only gets harder from here, and they beat the easy teams in FaZe and SEN. They just lost to EG, and they will have OpTic in the last week. Plus, expect them to have tough competition in the playoffs.

8. NRG
   They've dropped a lot in this week's rankings, but if they can get back together and work out their comps, they can look deadly like their first match against TSM.

9. TSM
   They slightly edge The Guard over their remaining schedule contrary to their match against the Guard, ending in 0-2. TSM looked nice against 100 Thieves and hopes to upset Ghost in next week's matchup

10. The Guard
    Their last matchups are against XSET and NRG, which do seem tough on paper, but if The Guard can continue dominating like dinosaurs, they can definitely topple some of the teams listed above.

11. FaZe Clan
    Their win against Cloud 9 gives them a chance in playoffs for that 4th or possibly 3rd seed. Their remaining matches are against Sentinels and EG, so they can make a run at it.

12. Sentinels
    Let's all agree that Sentinels are bad, their roles are messed up, but they still have a chance. Copium?

bad or not bad? should this be changed?

Genuinely 2-11 are tossups. If I matched any of those teams against any other team I have no clue who would be favored to win. Optic will always win and Sen will always lose tho.

fair assessment tbh, but as #3 pointed out, ranked 2-11 are all toss ups due to how UNPREDICTABLE the groups have been, the amount of upsets we've seen really goes to show that NA valorant is really competitive for that 2nd top spot behind Optic. Which in all honesty is great to see just is really damn hard to rank

Honestly though, all things consdiered.

W power rankings

yes these are w rankings these seem very accurate to me

i like it. although i can see FaZe and The Guard start fix their shit and go up on that power rankings
