Recently, many NA Valorant fans are saying that BR is a one team region, however NA it's as well, envy/optic is the only with achievements since sentinels win in the first international LAN
?
OpTic (won), SEN (won), XSET (good champs performance), 100T (top 4), C9 (good showing in 2021 champs), V1 (good showing in Iceland 2021), Guard (didn't play well at Iceland 2022, but have shown glimpses of brilliance regionally). faze, NRG, and EG could all do some damage internationally
brazil on the other hand, has only had 1 team make it out of groups in an international LAN (loud at this years champs)
C9 and V1 didn't achieve something in 2022 + faze, NRG, and EG didn't get there for u to say something about it.
100t and xset are the ones you could say they do damage internationally. I agree. But if you say NIP and Furia did nothing against Zeta (NiP), DRX (Furia) and Fnatic (Both) u being biased af.

They didn't won, but they 4 sure weren't easy opponents. They show they can win good teams internationally. Just need more discipline.
NIP beat a fnatic team with 2 subs
NIP lost to a zeta team early in the tournament. Zeta were not as good that early in the tournament as they would end up being later in the tournament.
Furia still got shit on by DRX...
Furia narrowly lost to Fnatic, but you could replace Furia with FaZe, Guard, or NRG and those teams would've done better.
even if those teams you named didn't do anything in 2022, they still had done damage internationally which no team in brazil has done other than LOUD.
NiP had like 3/4 days to scrim in europe since they got from LQC against Leviathan. So they were in a deficit too.
NiP could improve throughtout the tournament too if they win against Zeta. All specutlation, tho...
Furia with a little more discipline would win the first map against DRX, would lost the second and idk about third.
Furia against Fnatic: You are just speculating about Faze, Guard and NRG, but 100t didn't do better than furia against fnatic when it matters.
