I don't mean the best player, but the most influential, he could also be the best but he doesn't have to be.
In my mind it has to be nAts, for that viper setup on A bind attack alone that he came up with more than 2 years ago and it's still meta in 2023/24 and no one could counter it, let alone that he was the first big lurker in valorant, with games like icebox vs G2 where he was always behind their backs, some plays and cypher setups, most teams changed to adapt to this guy and most lurkers have learned a lot from him.
You could add something like cNed, since he was the first big OP player that made people be afraid of ops and make protocols to find that guy.
Someone like FNS who with his calla made teams retake a site when the spike was on the opposite, and was the first IGL with the big fakes and inserting players in positions.
Who's your most influential player and why?
