Valorants first S-Tier proper rivalry?

Blaxtonn

Is it safe to say that Optic and Loud are proper rivals at this point? or do we need a few more games to say that?

If they win this sure because is been pretty 1-sided even the optic players said themselves they wouldn’t consider it a rivalry

Astralis liquid is considered one of the best rivalries in CS and it was hella one sided

Yea but rivalries aren't necessarily about the records of the teams, I guess its more about fans shit talking the other fans like NA vs EU rivalry. Like in sports there's rivalries but they're mostly from the fans

i suppose, but the games have more often then not been really close, at the very least i think loud and optic are constantly fighting for #1 valorant team spot imo

pretty cocky thing to say considering almost every single map between them was close

To be fair though, most games in valorant are close, teams dont just go 13-3ing other teams, guess they just dont consider it because they're not constantly back n forth

1-sided as in they win pretty much every time, they were on a 4 game win streak against them before that

I imagine Optic gets franchised, they seem pretty financially stable. Unless its been confirmed they have not been franchised, idk i dont keep up with it
