VALORANT is a game of luck.

The previous year's World Champion and the Masters Champion will both fail to qualify.
Roster changes or not, the game could not be more unrepeatable in terms of strength. Apex, where the same teams have won World Championship multiple times, is more reflective of their abilities.

map pool, meta change all reset every team. Who can adapt are the best team. Underdogs are more likely in this game,.

League of Legends also changes its meta more frequently than VALORANT and has more champions, but the strong teams remain strong.

Also just my opinion but league is way less competitive than val is rn. It's a competition between 4 or 5 teams every single year unless there is big roaster changes. Also all those competitive teams are literally from 2 regions china and Korea.

Well that has more to do with valorant being younger. Takes one bad generation to have regions and countries go from the top of the world to no ones, e.g. sweden and now denmark, france in CS, eu in LoL, CIS in Dota (before Spirit TI win). When val gets older it will likely get a dominating region as well

then map pool is the factor then.
PRX when flash initator map fracture gone = became bad, No sova player for ascent/icebox/haven/breeze.
Some teams also have permaban too. When teams get exposed on a map they got destroyed on, instantly perma ban it for rest of tournament.

thts because league is dominated by china and Korea so al the best players in the world are In 2 regions and even when the teams change the synergy exists. they are mechanically better than the other regions. also only t1 has dominated Lol. no other team has won more than once and Samsung doesn't count cause they won after rebranding.

VALORANT is a game of improvisation, like Ego Jinpachi said, winners will find the problem as a challenge as long as u don't lose sight of ur goal

It is totally surprising that EDG and GENG would be eliminated from this tournament, in which no AMERICAS or EMEA teams participated at all.

EDG basically haven't played valo since winning champs and GENG have a brand new roster it isn't that surprising

There's a beauty to this randomness in terms of entertainment. This is especially true for short-term tournaments.

I think 'luck' is short of the full picture
it's about adaptation
