The Biggest "What If?" (in your opinion)

#1

I have two:

I wonder how Wardell would perform now if he continued pro play. At the peak of his career, he was a top three player of NA and even towards the end of his career his talent was among the top.

I also wonder how ScreaM would perform if he never became an IGL and picked up a different main role akin to what TenZ did (not the IGL part ofc). In terms of his CS career, he was only above average amongst the pros and that is because his mechanics were among the top. He was not made to IGL. Unlike Wardell, ScreaM probably was the best EMEA player of his time like what aspas is to the Americas.

if the classic killed we could have won 3-2
maybe 3-0 with momentum
ascent was tilting

what would have happened if kru won against gambit in the 2021 champs semifinals? we were super close, we were dominating the map and they overtook us

If kru had won against gambit and Acend (which I doubt they would against prime cNed and zeek) their win would‘ve been history, underdog Latam team complete miracle run, one of the biggest win in Latam esport scene or something like that.

you're giving nrg too much credit, loud were good enough to make it to map 5 and go up 11-3, I think an nrg-fnatic grand final at lock//in would be the most one sided grand final in the history of valorant, fnatic were just that much better

NRG become best NA team during tokyo, loud drop out just like tokyo, c9/100T bomb-out of groups. People clown on Americas. Then champs happen, blg happen, loud can only go so far while other americas team just lose in groups or playoffs early. Then PRX won, and no one would be clowning them. Mibr really did saved americas

This is CS one, but what if Chaos esports club didn't break apart? A lot of C9s/V1 history in VAL would change. Vanity xeppa leaf and maybe steel would all either stay in CS as a promising tier 2 team or would leave much later. This wouldn't change much in the grand scheme, but looking at all the small moments each member has contributed to, I feel like NA VAL would be different.

I would be curious to see how good sinatraa could be, he was either the best or second best to tenz when he played
