42 players have won a valorant international major.
1-34 are players that either are still in VCT or have had multiple highly impact full years. It was really hard to seperate great players so on a weighted scale I judged
- Championships (#x)
- Tournament MVPs (#mvp)
- Finals appearances (#f)
- How well I roughly remembered them performing on their team
- Sustained success (multiple deep runs)
- Bias
The list
- Chronicle (only 3x champ, 4 time finalist)
- Leo (2x, best player imo, 1 mvp)
- Alfajer (2 x, 1 mvp)
- Derke (2x, 3 time finalist)
- Tenz (2x, 1 mvp)
- Sacy (2x, 3f)
- Boaster (2x, 3 F)
- Yay (1x, 3F, 1 mvp)
9 . Demon(1x, 2f, 1 mvp) - Aspas (1x, 3f)
- Less (1x, 3f
- Saadhak (1x, 3f)
- Pancada (1x, 2f, 1 mvp)

Beyond this point these players did not make a franchising team or performed very poorly in the first season and were not pick up for 2024. (FNS and Pancada are also not on a team but have longer and more successful careers)
deffo (1x champ, 2x finalist, 2x CIS champ, 1x EMEA champ )
sick (1x champ, 0 lost maps in a major, 5x regional champ, the most flexible player at the time, hope he is getting the help he needs)
Bonecold (1x champ, 1 time regional champ, first ever champions winning igl)
dapr (1x champ, 0 lost maps in a major, 5x regional champ, carried by Tenz, one of the best early cyphers but got outclassed fast)
shahzam (1x champ, 0 lost maps in a major, 5x regional champ, carried by Tenz, igl jett?)
zombs (1x champ, 0 lost maps in a major, 5x regional champ, carried by Tenz)
zeek (cNed and friends, 1x champ, 0 regional titles, team cancer, does have a mvp but reputation tarnished by team heretics stint)
Kiles (1 time champ and 1 time region winner, but consistently worst or 2nd worst player while not being the igl)
Disclaimer: I don't really like the Navi/FPX Core and I don't know why.
Also how did cned not win mvp at Champs 2021. “Find cned and run” was a viable strat.
