Teams in each tier are ranked by left to right (so Gambit > VS > NV > C9)
edit: meant to put NV over c9
made my tierlist with the following criteria:
S - Favorites for the championship title and likely to be in the grand final or final
A - They are not favorites to win the title but can surprise and be champions
B - They'll have a good campaign but certainly won't win the championship
C - They are almost guaranteed to go to the play-offs but their maximum ceiling is to reach the semifinals.
D - They will have a short campaign and will probably be the first to be eliminated. They might perform well but they won't get past the group stage.
Because the Tierlist is not the truth, it is just a guess. There could be teams from Tier A, B or even S that I put that will get to the champions and just play fucking badly and the lower tier teams unseat them which was something that happened in the last Masters like Envy, G2 that were considered garbage teams and did very well and Sentinels that was the favorite and lost in the quarterfinals. So I have already considered these variables in my tierlist.
https://tiermaker.com/list/valorant/valorant-champions-1228666/1737704 this is my true feeling honestly

S - GMB, SEN
A - TL, VS, ACE, NV
B - FNC, C9, VKS, KRU
C - X10, KS, FS, FUR
D - CR, TS
- GMB: Berlin Champions, very consistent, but they have been played close to/beaten by a lot of teams. (They probably wont be 6-0 in overtime like in masters 3)
- SEN: Bad Berlin performance but one bad tournament does not instantly make them bad.
- TL: New roster looks dominant, but the small sample size means they could drop quickly with high variance.
- VS: Similar to Gambit, a bit more tactically balanced, but less consistent individual performances.
- ACE: The bottom of the roster fell off a bit in Berlin. Bonecold cannot have the fourth highest first deaths per round on the smokes again.
- NV: Good but not great up until Berlin, with a repeat performance they will cement themselves in S.
- C9: The roles feel a bit cluttered, and the tactics feel a bit like PUG style, but there is potential.
- FNC: When the meta caught up, they lacked the firepower especially with Derke not being dominant. Too many bad losses to put them higher.
9: VKS: Dominant in Brazilian masters 1 and 2. They changed everything in Masters 3 and it didn't work. Despite that they beat Furia twice in BO3 and went to 4OT on map 3 elimination against KS with no practice on their old comps. - KRU: Consistent performances and good placements, but they have yet to pose a challenge to the top teams.
- KS: New look roster with Mwzera has a high ceiling and a low floor. Too heavily reliant on the duelist aggression against tactical rosters, but they can beat anyone if they are on.
- X10: Consistently beat FS when they had Patiphan, but its been too long since this roster has played tough matches together to know how they will do.
- FS: Big performances from a couple players to win the APAC LCQ, but they have lost to a lot of the good SEA teams.
- FUR: They have failed to consistently beat any of the good Brazilian teams despite being consistently one of the best.
- CR: Very inconsistent and not very impressive so far.
- TS: Unfortunate that Paper Rex didn't get this spot. This roster could still beat a number of the lower teams here.
