Is America's best region?

I think they have the perfect balance of aim and good strats, yeah Pacific has some cracked aimers and EU have good set plays but it seems like Americas are the most versatile and coordinated. Bump if agree 🐥

At Shanghai:

NA team seed 1
NA team 2-0 in groups
2 NA/3 SA player team 1-1 in groups
4 out of 4 pure SA teams did not make Shanghai

even though it was mickey mouse

4/5 NA player team won Madrid

In the past:
4 NA teams have won intl. LANs
1 BR team has one an intl. LAN

like bro sure BR has some amazing AMAZING individual players (current and past loud roster(s) except for qck, heat is great, mwzera SOMETIMES, etc)
but like dont just straight up lie

Doesn't rly have to do anything with play style.

They are the best region because they got the best teams (and best players). Obviously when you combine 3 regions it's gonna be stronger than a single region - their best country because of a war🤷‍♂️

What are the 3 regions in Americas? It's just North America and South America.

What is the single region, besides China? EMEA has 3 regions (Europe, Middle East, Africa). Pacific has 2 regions, you could argue maybe 3.

LATAM and br have always been two different regions?

Middle east and Africa have 0 relevance on competitive valorante so idek why would you bring that up

LATAM and BR are the same region bro... they're both Latin America. The only difference is that Valorant picked up more in Brazil compared to other Latin American countries (where valorant was pretty much dead compared to its main competitor cs), so Riot had to combine teams from both North America and South America to fill the gap (and invent the LATAM leagues, which were 2... LATAM North and LATAM South)

They were 3 separate regions in valorant 🤷‍♂️

Also calling the region dead is crazy when you had teams like kru and lev going top 8 globally (or top 4 even)

You have to be delusional to call the region not dead when you have players from over 30 countries all crammed in 2 teams, because there's virtually no other top teams to join. And even then, those LATAM teams still end up with North American players on the roster.

Your entire argument is based on nothing... each region is 1 region, and will concentrate even more into 1 region the longer this franchise system continues. All top players eventually will end up coming from the VCT hubs or their proximities.

Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Bolivia, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Paraguay, Uruguay, etc .. all little islands with just a few ppl around, you're right.

Didn't realize I'm talking to a certified idiot, my bad

No no, you proved your point. The region is thriving, all these countries popping super stars in Valorant left and right.

I hate to be like this and I agree with your point but majority of LATAM countries are part of North America.

Brother who tf cares about Africa and middle east? 😭

It's like if they gave Antarctica to Americas because Argentina got the biggest piece of it and EMEA fans would argue that then you'd have one more region because of it🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Yes

Pacific is too top heavy

EMEA has a lot of good but not elite teams

Americas have some elite, some really good and some decent teams

I agree, americas is most balanced, they have cracked aimers and fantastic midrounding, but i would love to see incorporation of set plays from a region like EMEA.

I'm not saying EMEA was better (because I don't think so, EMEA are behind Americas and pacific IMO), but EMEA was much more competitive this year than any other league honestly
