What teams are our favorites?

Paper Rex is locked in going to Champs. so that makes there be only 1 slot that is open for dispute, no.2 currently belongs to XERXIA, but could go to Bleed, Boom or ONICG if XERXIA leaves early and one of them makes it to Masters and do well. any of the teams could beat XERXIA if they make it to Masters and do well, but Bleed, Boom and ONICG are among the most competitive teams in playoffs.

the current leaderboard looks like this;

1, Paper Rex = 345 Circuit Points
2, XERXIA = 195 Circuit Points
3, Bleed eSports = 100 Circuit Points
4, BOOM eSports = 95 Circuit Points
5, ONICG = 80 Circuit Points
6, Made In Thailand = 75 Circuit Points [MITH failed to make it to APAC Playoffs so they will not be going to Masters, their last hope to make it to Champions is APAC-S LCQ]
7/8, Fancy United eSports = 70 Circuit Points [FCY failed to make it to APAC Playoffs so they will not be going to Masters, their last hope to make it to Champions is APAC-S LCQ]
7/8. Griffin eSports = 70 Circuit Points
9, CERBERUS = 65 Circuit Points [CES failed to make it to APAC Playoffs so they will not be going to Masters, their last hope to make it to Champions is APAC-S LCQ]
10, Global eSports = 55 Circuit Points [GE failed to make it to APAC Playoffs so they will not be going to Masters, their last hope to make it to Champions is APAC-S LCQ]

Notable teams off the leaderboard are;

Alter Ego who are currently in playoffs
Full Sense who made champions last year
Team Secret who are in Playoffs
ORDER who are OCE #1 Team
Gaimin Gladiators who recently beat Paper Rex
and RRQ who had a good showing in stage 2

of these teams, we won't be seeing any more of the following because they are out of the year.

Full Sense, failed to make APAC stage 2 from TH after losing to FWE. They place 11-15th on the scoreboard, tying with teams such as Persija Jakarta, Alter Ego, Team Big BAAM, and Team Secret.

The top 2 teams in APAC will make Champions, the following 10 will make LCQ where they battle for one slot in champions. joining them will be the winner from the OCE LCQ making the count of teams in APAC LCQ 11. but there are more than 20 teams who can make the cut. they are (in no order);

ORDER
Full Sense
Team Secret
XERXIA
Bleed
Fancy United
Griffin eSports
CERBERUS
BOOM eSports
ONICG
Global eSports
Made In Thailand
BOBO
Alter Ego
Mindfreak
Honey Badgers
Funcrew
REIGN SATX
Bonkers.

Out of every team on the list (bar PRX and XIA), I want ONIC G to win LCQ.

I think they are a solid team and can be a dark horse for LCQ. Lmemore and Monyet are as solid as ever, severiNe is one of the most flexible players I have seen in APAC, and Shiro has been getting better each game.

Can you explain why PRX are locked for champs? Is it not possible for two other teams like XERXIA and Bleed to make Copenhagen, both place well (say 2nd and 3rd), and get more points than them?

Unless my maths is wrong They can't both get more Circuit points than PRX

It's possible, he's taking the piss. There's a chance Paper Rex does lock in for Champions, but you need at least 600 points or more to properly secure a 1st or even a 2nd seed (like how Optic is right now.) It's based on the assumption that no team would be able to match Paper Rex's 4th place finish (which is worth 300 points, the amount they have right now.) Even a 5th-6th place finish would equal the amount, let alone 3rd or 4th which amounts to 500 and 400 respectively.

@TS_ChedZ I see you taking points from the Liquipedia table. Don't take it as it is. LP likes to add the minimum amount of circuit points a team gets at a certain point, and if the team let's say managed to qualify from Play-Ins to Group Stages, the threshold is raised. It can lead to confusion. Paper Rex DOES NOT have 345 points. The 45 points is from the minimum points you get finishing 5th-6th in Playoffs. They have 300 points.

Paper rex is not locked in for champs. They just have more points than everyone else. If Xerxia get to playoffs in Copenhagen and do something similar to Paper Rex, they easily take over PRX and get locked in for champs instead. Same for ONIC G if they get to finals/win Copenhagen.

If Xerxia and PRX qualify for masters once again, they will be locked in for champs.

it's just my opinion, if we want to send the most quality teams to champion I would go with PRX, XIA, ONIC/BLEED only these 4 teams that currently look strong though many people hate bleed haha

https://liquipedia.net/valorant/VCT/2022/Circuit_Points/APAC
APAC circuit point get 9 spot for APAC LCQ
OCE LCQ champs get 1 spot for APAC LCQ
hence 10 teams will compete at APAC LCQ
Full sense already out
GE is on their edge of fate waiting for one of TS or AE bomb out directly from playoff
