this is "my" rating of some of the partnered orgs based on their performance in 2023.
TOP 3:
1. FNATIC 9.9
2. PRX 9.1
3. LOUD 9.0
7. EG 6.1
my rating will be marked out of 10, of which
- X- 5 points will be purely for the actual performance, no sympathy given. you made the roster one week before tournament? your fault. you couldnt secure the visa? your fault.
- Y- 2 points for roster decisions made along this year , eg. you did no scouting and basically recruited players based on who you are friends with? 0 points.
- Z- 3 points for content and socials.
3rd point includes things like (not every point below carries equal rating):- did they host watch parties?
- consistent youtube content
- different content apart from just vlogs and voice comms
- their twitter game
note: this is a 100% accurate list based on my years of hardwork, research and pure data driven analysis with no room for error. if you disagree, then you are either just dumb or delusional
remember EG being rated lower than LIQUID does not mean liquid were a better team, it just means LIQUID were the better org
PACIFC (0 trophies)
-
ZETA 5.2
X = 2.2/5, made champs + won lcq
Y = 0.5/2, no roster changes even though at the start of the year they were many upgrades possible
Z= 2.5/3, good content game on youtube. one of most interactions on twitter -
PRX 9.1
X = 4.5/5, top 32 lock in, 3rd at tokyo, 2nd at champs, 1st PACIFIC
Y = 1.8/2, made a necessary change in something mid season. honestly could've prepared better from the start. (with a proper 6th man too)
Z= 2.8/3, not the best twitter banter, but good youtube content (chet alecks coffee vid etc) -
DRX 6.1
X = 3.7/5, lock in 4th, pacific 2nd, 8th tokyo, drx place @champs
Y = 0.5/2, give it up bruh, its over 😭😭😭😭. this roster needs something new
Z = 1.9/3, not the highest quality, but they try (tough having a korean roster and having to make content for mostly western fans) -
T1 5.0
cba for this org
EMEA (5 trohpies)
-
NAVI 5.9
X = 2.8/5, lock in 4th made tokyo and did decent @ champs (contrary to most people's expectations)
Y = 1.3/2, cned was a good replacement, didnt work out, shit show when it came to comps and roles
Z = 1.8/3, not the highest quality, but they try. -
FNATIC 9.9
X = 5/5, argue with your dad @ 1214
Y = 2/2, created a genuine superteam
Z = 2.9/3, nobody's perfect -
LIQUID 7.2
X = 3.2/5, failed at lock in, comeback with EMEA #1, did poorly @ tokyo and champs
Y = 1.5/2, decent roster on paper
Z = 2.5/3, one of the best youtube, but very average twitter -
FUT 7.05
X = 3.25/5, a turkish team that finally achieved top 8 itw. emea top 3
Y = 1.8/2, only one roster move, but arguably one of the best in form of ataKaptan (future goat)
Z = 2/3, decent twitter and YT, but had the biggest watch party consistently throughout the year
AMREICAS (4 trophies)
-
LOUD 9.0
X = 4.5/5, 2nd lock in 1st americas 8th tokyo 3rd champs
Y = 1.8/2 decent replacements for pancada and sacy
Z = 2.7/3 one of the better twitter games for a non fnatic/ american org. good YT. -
EG 6.1
X = 4.7/5 3rd americas, 2nd tokyo, 1st champs
Y = 1.2/2 not the best roster moves if we are not being Hindsight Harry's. a good decision for a secondary roster (but its just a way the org thinks, spend less on primary roster and develop secondary roster while the primary is shit. they were lucky the primary roster was somehow good)
Z = 0.2/3 atrocious twitter. mid posters. cringe banter from the org(we arent counting the trash talk demon1 or boostio did). overdid the meme edit thing. the only good edit was pre-champs video they released. shit org shit merch shit management. -
SENTINELS 5.5
X = 1/5 SENTINELS.
Y = 1.6/2 good roster moves, but not enough backing and trust from the org itself. removing the core of the roster mid season didnt help.
22 xset core >> 22 fnatic core huh?
Z = 2.9/3 yk its sentinels, probably the only thing they do right.
but remember,
"sentinels fans know very little about valorant....." - pogba probably -
NRG 7.1
X = 3.2/5 4th tokyo 2nd americas
Y = 1/2 the guy who said, lets import a new duelist as yay replacement and then brings in ardiis needs to be fired. (i am not a hindsight harry on this, i was critical of ardiis in nrg since start of the year). s0m W stripper though.
Z = 2.9/3 one of the best -
KRU 5.6
X = 2.1/5 qualified for champs
Y = 1/2 the keznit in keznit out was confusing. dont think they made the best roster decisions this year
Z = 2.5/3 i love the kru twitter guy, very funny (i am the farthest thing from a kru fan, no bias, just a genuine observation)
PS: (this is my generalized rating. i wont have proper gauge of things like how good was ZETA's twitter game, but yeah i tried my best)
