I mean would rather have him and build around him or have the 2nd best team in china, aka Rare atom core? He's good but when you gotta pick between him or stew i think the answer is not debatable

I mostly agree with you, your top rated teams are great. The way it looks to me probably goes something like this:

EDG
--------------------tier gap--------------------
JDG
TE
FPX
--------------------tier gap--------------------
BLG
DRG
--------------------tier gap--------------------
TYL
WOL
TEC
AG
NOVA (roster unreleased)

I don't think TEC is better than TYL or WOL. I know they're rumored to be getting Rb but I have some doubts about the other players.

tec shameless is pretty good tho...i agree they might not better overall ; also i think AG will be better than people expect...they have sword9 as IGL now, prev. coach of EDG + prev. IGL of KONE

AG is definitely not bad on paper. In fact, I'd say that aside from NOVA (we don't know roster), all the teams look decent on paper. shameless hasn't really stood out to me, but maybe that's just me lacking while watching the VODs.
We'll see how it unfolds in late Feb. I guess (SO FAR AWAY AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH).
Have a good one Obsidian Echo!

Personnaly I Think The Opposite , TEC is have huge potential since they beat BLG in Evolution 3 (even BLG become mid) but its impressive , and since they been together for atleast 3 month rn the synergy between them is good already.
So in paper tyloo and wolves are consider a better team based on how individual players mechanic but the synergy is not in there yet.
Sorry For Long Reply 😅

To me, this isn't a long reply at all. In fact, I'd go on to give you credit for being clear and concise with your message.
I think you are indeed correct in the sense that TEC did indeed beat a mid BLG, and does indeed look to have good synergy between the players, which is great.
To be fair, I didn't account for synergy at all when making my rankings, and if I did I probably would place TEC above WOL and below TYL. TYLOOs core has been together for quite a while, and with hfmi on the team they're most certainly going to be a force to reckon with (unless they throw all their matches).
Cheers!

I think that Abo is pretty good as well. TEC probably won't be amazing admittedly, but I believe they'll be a solid middle of the pack team.

I completely agree with you that Abo is a pretty good player. I mean, he's an experienced Valorant player and has been in the scene for quite the long time. I just don't know if they'll be able to contend for mid-table when the other teams like Wolves get their chemistry figured out.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but haven’t all of the players but rb (if the rumor ends up happening) played together for a couple of months?

No, you're very correct! The other four have indeed been playing together for a month or two.

Shouldn’t they have more synergy than wolves theoretically? Or have wolves players been together longer?

No no, they do have more synergy than Wolves right now. I apologize if I was unclear.

but JDG is much worse than RA without yoman and DRG upgraded roster with nizhao instead of zeno

i dont know about that buddy..sure yoman was a great IGL but he is not gone altogether, he is still JDG asst. coach....also whoever their 5th is, be it mrcani/jkuro, these guys have insane firepower, yihao can take up the IGL role and i genuinely believe, this JDG > RA if not worse

i have an aussie bias but i think fpx got better, and they beat Te last split. Fpx should be 3rd or even 2nd if nizhaoTZH doesnt gel well with the team

Wolves look really good on paper but I just have a feeling it's not gonna work out I'm not sure exactly why, with that said they're not gonna be bad at all. I just expect TEC and AG to be even better

Well, that's why it's on paper lol! Whether they work out in the future or not is up to them, but from the information we have atm, they're looking to be a banging team lol.

It was the same with Tyloo tbh, they went from looking like a top 3 team to mid after getting upgrades

also my TL for the ppls interested (with the rumored rosters)

EDG (Best team in china at every aspect of the game)
TE (Only other top team that hasnt changed anything, so should be top tier from start to finish)
FPX (Changing TZH for Life is on paper a good idea, role wise and playstyle wise its going to be interesting but not sure to work, Life is quite the non flexible crazy duelist which is the opposite of when they had Yuicaw and still more crazy than Autumn)
JDG (could go 2 if their 5th is an IGL like YHchen/Zero1, insane base roster obv)
Wolves (the roster is full of players that played rly well on bad/ok rosters, it should take them time but firepower wise its a rly good one)
DRG (they were on a high momentum at the Ascension but Vookashu is insane, TLuke is good + they got TZH and Dingwei is an impressive newcomer)
TEC (im quite high on them, i wouldnt be surprised if they are the dark horse roster in VCT China and make champs in the end, B1ack is rly good and Shameless a good clutcher + Abo/Rb/Quiye is rly good firepower, but they should need some time before the rosters works well)
BLG (Still the same roster and the same problems after champs, B3ar had great moments at the start of the year but not sure he is a clear upgrade over Rin, With that roster i cant see them rly change that much or B3ar is crazy good)
AG (Big fan of Monk and Bunt, but too much unknown for me with Sword9 not playing for 9 months + quite the same for Spitfire, Delb should be good but i overall have a hard time seeing the floor/Ceiling of this roster, im quite hype to see how they do)
TYL (Same as BLG but worked even less together, Great individual players and adding Hfmi to replace Abo is a good replacement, just no idea how the roster could work now and not before, Individually great roster but cant find any momentum and Synergy together, also i miss the SMB/Maizi era of this team ;-;)
11.NOVA (i could do 3 rosters more interesting with players not rumored on a team than their supposed roster)
