- DRX - No need to know why, it shows
- GEN G - on their way to become the 2nd DRX, just need a bit more polishing. They fought very very close against LOUD, I assume they're on the same level or one less level of NRG. Very Korean Play style, very good overall.
- SECRET -
Pre Warbirds I would place them 8 or 9 they're just like forcing themselves to do a PRX play style cosplay, bad mental, and everything seems off, no discipline and everything is just chaotic. So if you're judging the team based on their past performance like GXR LAN and the KR invitational, stop. If you're playing VALORANT to win 50/50, you're playing the game wrong. You should only be taking a play not always but of the time that's in your advantage.
Warbirds - I put them 3rd, This team is basically playing in the same play style, protocol, strat, execution, utility usage of an NA team, all players have an impact and do what their role is supposed to do. However, their attack strats needs a bit more of polishing. At last, they stopped cosplaying PRX play style like they did in 2022, also based on lots of scrim leaks, they're doing very well against lots of teams. Their new NA coach (Warbirds) seems taking the team in the right path.
- TALON - everyone is popping off, they became so confident again, probably the new team vibes, they're really have a solid roster, trades and calls of crws are on point, assuming they don't change GarnetS to patiphan I'm placing them 3 but I think pati will replace GarnetS which I think is a bad idea soon so I'll put them 4( for now until I watch pati )
- PRX - team fell off, very creative team, their play style will work if you're really not knowledgeable about the team. Very aim heavy team, but as months goes by teams improved too and their fast play style have now been easily countered by teams. NGL, Stop trolling and the WGaming thing if they don't want to get stuck, they used to be unpredictable but now when teams are playing against them they just don't let their guard down anymore, they know how undisciplined the team is. I think they got complacent, still an A for me tho cause I think it's not that hard to fix discipline in players.
- T1 - they might have showed that they got stomped by NA teams but they are so new that time, and just need more experience, their aims are cracked but they just lack more of the fundamentals of the game, a mechanically skilled heavy team. I think they just need to broaden their strat books and counter strats then it will be good.
- GE - never saw them on an official match with this new roster but based on scrim leaks on discord, they're getting stomped. I don't know if they're just hiding strat and trying to analyze the playstyle of different regions but I won't say anything for now until I watch their performance later. I hope their hype will match their performance, I mean people won't hype a player for nothing, right? I have really high hopes especially for texture and rossi.
- ZETA - honestly replace crow, tenn. Only Laz and Dep has a consistent performance they're basically S tier playbooks, strats, coms but C tier aim, also no confidence and they respect teams too much, I guess it's because of their culture. Their No ego culture, always humble and respectful, most of the time those are the personalities that easily gets upset and intimidated. NA EMEA, give this team even 0.1 of EGO please.
- RRQ - watched their game against tier 2 indo teams, I'm not basing this right now I'm basing this in their most official recent games so you can ignore this take. I don't know they lost to a tier 2 teams last time and had a hard time beating Enigma, EJAY seems to be the player to look out here, he's the top fragger most of the time, Lmemore seems to be inconsistent sometimes he pops off, sometimes not, depends on the day. The rest definitely needs a lot of working to do if they don't want to get embarrassed in the international scene. I hope they will also prove me wrong and I'll be more glad if I'm wrong.
- DFM - No need to know why, it shows
First things first, thanks for the pretty in depth analysis, really apreciate you taking the time to help me understand a region im not familiar with. Now here are a few things i'd like to say about your list.
GenG - I love the GenG belief, im really hyped to see them developing they looked great against loud and showed massive potential
Talon - I think if they keep garnets as a starter they should be good, but it feels like a waste to bench pati, maybe they can fit him somewhere or just let him go.
T1 - Im just not hyped for this team. Hopefuly im wrong cuz as a overwatch fan seeing those guys suceed would be great, however their performance in the ludwig tarik tournament was awful and if im not mistaken they had been practicing for a while at that point. Lets hope their bootcamp in NA was worth it and they got better.
GE - All the scrimbux i saw said they were doing good, where did you get the info that they are being stomped?
Zeta - Im honestly not that down on them. What you said about being humble is pretty interesting and maybe it does need a fix, still they were ok against lev who imo is one of the top teams in the world. The idea of them bringing someone to get more firepower sounds interesting tho.
The teams i didn't metion i either agree with u and have nothing to say or i just don't know enough about them.
after seeing them so far in LOCK IN (might change after watching a few more tonight)
- DRX - no doubt
- PRX, TALON, GEN G - these three will be competing for the 2 spots left to masters (3 spots if somehow we win LOCK IN i think thats how it works)
- TS GE
- T1 RRQ ZETA - personally not a huge fan of JP Val tbh, zeta masters run was a fluke. T1 also didnt look good, RRQ me indo bias
- DFM
Put ts in no. 2. They legit looked impressive. Their utility is legit and their chemistry is just crazy for a team that's like a 2 months old iirc. On the flip side, because they're still a pretty new team they still need a lot of polishing to do, like not overheating and trading and such. But other than that they looked as impressive if not better than Gen.g and Talon no joke. Warbirds is cooking 5 Michelin star adobo and it fucking smell amazing.
