Example :
LoL - Faker
CSGO - s1mple
Fortnite - Bugha
Can’t seem to think of one… Valorant just too low skill cap maybe theres no best player in the game.

Man, whether people like it or not, he's THE face of valorant rn. That may change, but I think a close runner up would be nats then cned
Pple know it but the a lot of the emea fan base is the just on copium
Not all obv
u realise that he doesn't deserve to be the face of the pro scene? don't tell me u actually think he deserves it
It doesn’t really matter, some games have decent players just become incredibly famous. Bugha and ninja are perfect examples, ninja played like a couple tourneys and then became the face of Fortnite, nowhere near the goat like s1mple and faker are known as.
being popular doesn't always mean they deserve it
but I do feel he deserves it, he's being grinding for years
I don't even like him, and he's definitely not the best player, not anymore anyway, but he for sure is THE face. Maybe scream makes a close 2nd
ngl, I think scream or mixwell is the face in eu. The face overall I'd say is TenZ, or Tarik.
Quite a lot of people forget that the face of something isn't equal to their ingame skill, but popularity of their brand while playing the game. EU players in val dont care about themselves as a brand, as composed to what NA tend to do in game.
i really dont get why ppl have to hate at every sight of the name tenz, it doesnt make sense to me but i guess thats why they spend 12 hours a day at their desk
Only the small group of haters type on vlr or threads online, majority love him (realistically what to hate...), I mean you can see how much viewer himself and valorant get when sen are playing
not overhyping, literally most of the people who have played just one game of val might have heard of tenz
definitely Tenz on the side of Pro play and Tarik on content creations. Whether you like it or not Tenz is the most notable person in the valorant scene
its Tenz but he decided to not play good anymore KEKW! and it still is tenz but he needs a good team XD those who downvote cry in the corner bozos he is the face of Valorant.
u telling me mwzera is the same as TenZ? no one can beat mwzera
He is still the most popular player by far which is what image of the game means some people just confuse it with best player and others just troll or hate
definitely still most popular by a mile no question about it
Name one person that is more universally known
First strike- hiko
Masters 1- Sinatraa??? Idk
Masters 2- tenz/vanity (cat ears)
Masters 3- Nats
Champions- Cned/KRU/ Nats
Overall- tenz
That one time... while everytime tenz streams compared to Nats, tenz gets much more viewers. Plus the most watched matches in masters 3 were sen not even the winners.
Jankos gets more viewers than Faker , he should be the GOAT of LoL right ???
Don't know anything about the lol scene cuz I'm not a cringe fking lol player but the face of valorant or most games are based more off of popularity among the pros.
val is too early in regards to that. Faker spent years becoming the face through events, same as s1mple. s1mple barely used to stream CS, but became the face through years of being the best.
We'd only see someone on their calibre of impact on the game, in a few years time. Until then we're stuck with the face being the most popular, which is probably tenz atm :/
vlr is not an accurate representation of the majority of the Valorant fanbase
Nah he's close, after berlin half of ranked Q vipers were on his dick, dude convinced people that the prism phantom was good, that has to be worth something
Vipers prolly like one of the least played characters
Can argue she's used in imm/radiant for certain maps but that's a very small percent of the player base
the cat ears i dont think got anywhere near as much attention as tenz but yea overall it is definitely tenz
I don't think Valorant has been around long enough to have a face of the scene yet.
Tenz and it indicates the failure of the valorant community. Good luck to all the players for masters 1, play your hearts out and make life fair.
Look at all the people getting downvoted for saying TenZ lmao. Bro look at the social media impressions, look at the twitch views, look at the fandom? It's unreal how popular TenZ is! No one is saying he is the best rn but it's undeniable that he is the face of the game.
It's too soon for that, most of those players took years to prove themselves
tenz you can tell by his viewership. it will change if his performances go down which they already are
fame doesn't mean face of
Faker and S1mple are famous but also Good unlike TenZ who peaked for 1 international event then just fell of Faster than anything, Cope, Mald, Cry.
Even though Tenz is overrated af he is undeniably the face of valorant because he is the biggest highlight clip maker
yeah its only because he's become mainstream twitch like super was in OW
In terms of entertainment i think it is boaster but in terms of skill and cloud it should be tenz
Guys... Just stop it, you all know who he is. You might not like it but TenZ is the face of Valorant.
Hilarious people think tenz isnt the fact of val lol. Ask anyone who doesnt play or watch val, the only pro he will probably know is tenz. I hate sentinels as much as the next person but dont cope so hard
because SEN hate is a bandwagon that vlr apes hop on to feel good about themselves
So far It's Tenz but if we talk about the tournament icon it's pati for his entrance
IDK why tf ppl are denying it being tenz, its just the truth, the guy is by far the most popular universally. Name me one person thats anywhere near as universally known as him. I have friends that dont watch val or play it and they know one thing about the game and that is TENZ
The amount of tenz haters on this site that cant even understand the difference between the face of the game and the best player oat
LMAO true
Same pple who know they're argument has no basis so just dislike every comment lol
This thread is a joke...
look at all these butthurt tenz fanboys trying to prove hes the face of valorant🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol some people don't even know what we are talking about here. Someone says Tenz is face of Valorant and idiots downvoting as if Tenz fanboys are calling him best player.
Vlr is truly filled with 15 yo idiots
braindead mfs saying "tenz" tenz is famous because of anime csgo or whatever
"face of valorant" is someone who got famous with it and is the first pro when you think about the game
so i would say like probably nats (eu) yay(maybe sayaplayer he got really famous recently too) (na) forsaken (asia) latam (sacy/mwzera/keznit)
These are not what everyone thinks of first. We know they are very good but not everyone. Face of a game is someone everyone including people who don't follow the scene much or probably don't even watch the eSports of the game knows about the player. For example I have never seen CSGO and LoL Esports but I know simple and faker and those are the names on top of your head when you think about the scene
ok? even if that is true i still would think about people like scream or literally s1mple because he played valorant like lmfao not t0nz
Crazy how many people don’t understand face = most well known.
For example. I don’t know what half of the people on this guys list look like, but I know what tenz and scream look like.
Yay played csgo
Saya played overwatch
Sacy played League
Keznit played csgo
Forsaken played csgo
I believe nats ans mwzera did aswell just not sure to what level.
Tenz got famous with valorant in the same way those other guys did. The difference is, whether you like ot or not, tenz is at least 5x bigger than them. The only other person who could be considered wouls be g2 mixwell for his spanish and latam fanbass
no he didnt and he isnt lmao. noone knew yay, saya, sacy, keznit and forsaken only the cheater one lul. also if your braindead point is right, tenz wouldnt be the face of valorant because he played csgo and he was literally one of the moust famous "young faceit/prodigy" players at that time, just shutup bro
bro he was literally nobody compared to who he is now. And saying that nobody knew those other players is just straight up lying, if you want to say that you didn't know them, fine, but nobody cares about that. Most of them were at one point signed professionals. I think you misunderstood my point. My point is that it doesn't matter what game they played before val, the only thing that matters is how relevant, famous they're right now. That's just how you calculate who's "the face of the game". If you go around different countries asking to random people if they know any valorant personalities, the most famous one would be tenz by a long mile, except in a few spanish speaking countries where they might say mixwell.
You aint out here trying to say no one knew sayaplayer, kid was a fucking star player and well known for being a hard carry hitscan player for Florida Mayhem and huge impact with Meta Athena.
Saya was absolutely not a no name
Tenz
Scream is pretty high on the list too.
Easy marketable figures.
Scream the good looking veteran who plays for fan favorite liquid
Tenz the nice guy weeb
yes...i really dont know...but recently there was a thread created by brazilian where they talked about the GOAT
me and 2 other ppl said "faker" and literally there are 3-4 downvotes for that
Tenz for NA people
Keznit/Mixwell for spanish speaking countries
mwzera for Brazil
here's my upvote, because logic.
People might or might not like TenZ, call him whatever, washed, superstar, etc etc, but Valorant is still pretty young and this guy (i would put Mixwell up there too) was the player that put Valorant in the map. The association between the guy and the game was instantaneous.
Also "being the face" at this point doesn't mean necessarily that it has to be the better player (in fact i doubt there's a s1mple or a faker rn. Again, game's too young)
TenZ believe it or not, as much as I don't like mainstream blokes, It's the truth
Boaster. He has the personality, brains and a team good enough to win Iceland. Face is not always the best player but the player thats most iconic and popular.
I think being known within the general public makes someone the face of a game more than being popular among fans who actually follow the scene. That's why I think it's Tenz.
Mixwell, TenZ, or Wardell. I really can't think of anyone else just as popular, maybe Seoldam, but not really.
da hell wardell, there's no way, mixwell either, i can accept tenz, but not as a face, but just a popular figure, that's all, valo still new, give it a couple years more.. imo Rb is one of the best atm.
bro, this thread was from 4 months ago. I mean Mixwell was still half relevant then and Wardell was still somewhat popular. I mean currently Tenz just is the face of valorant. Most people think of SEN Tenz when they think of the pro scene, that's just how it is, like you can have your opinion, but TenZ is just the face of valorant, at least right now (Maybe Yay or Forsaken[maybe Jingg] will take over that spot, but who knows).
Rb is def one of the best, but his popularity sucks right now. I don't think he is in contention for the best player though, don't get me wrong, he's a great player, but he doesn't compare to the hyper carries of the likes of Alfajer, Yay, Derke, Aspas. He requires less resources, but that means he isn't as much of a carry, that's why I think he is great due to his flexibility, but if you want a face, Get Alfajer, Get cNed, Get Aspas, people that are the top of the scoreboard and the one to watch with the insane plays.
Simply, your take is garbage. jkjk. You seem to be a new user, so you probably don't know how popular Mixwell used to be an probably still is. He probably has like every spanish viewer's family hostage or some shit, he's a popular streamer, a great player, and was a great role model for keloqz. He just had a lot of clout and was pretty much the TenZ of Spain, and quite a bit of Europe.
Rn TenZ but because of prevalence in the pro scene and personality, i think eventually it will be Boaster
Man, the amount of TenZ haters... People here looks like fans in hltv, but way worst
Most of the people in this thread (including me) agree that TenZ rn is indeed the face of Val however much he's fallen. I don't see a lot of TenZ hate??
Also people seem to not like the argument that scene is still in an early stage, but haven't been capable of naming a "face" for the "good player" merit because there isn't and that's a fact (I'm starting to sound like trembolona with the arrogant tone)
For me no one yet, because (this is only my opinion) if your gonna talk about face of the game you need to see what he accomplished on this game, example on LoL is Faker because 10 time LCK Champion, 2 time MSI champion, and 3 time Worlds Champion, (I know u some of guys gonna say some of his year he got carried, this is my opinion just remembering you) so if you want to name face of Valorant you need to wait until someone got a grandslam, 3 in a row VCT Master Champions and win VCT Champions
Just too early to say anything , this game is still new
So no one for now
I dont like TenZ but face of Valorant it has to be Tenz 100000%. everyone know TenZ.
valorant got some problems if tenz is the face xdd
in every game the face of the game is the best player.
while in valorant the face of the game is washed tier 2 jett one trick who bottomfrags almost everytime
TenZ, no doubt.
But he is not the best player in valorant unlike s1mple in CS:GO.
tenz isn’t even top 5 world wide yet alone top 10 NA
sinatraa is the best NA player followed by trent and vanity.
lol no. Yay might overcome tenz if he keeps winning and becomes undisputed best for years but he has nowhere near the amount of clout right now that tenz still has
honestly if fnatic win champions, I think boaster will 100% be the face since already he is the main character in the music video etc
tenz
bcoz i have seen in many instances that even new valorant players know that there is a player named "tenZ" who very good/best at game....
i think that is what indicates to be "the face of"
yay or forsaken are probably the closest rn, people saying tenz live in the past
Noone knows about yay dont fool yourself. Ask anyone who is not into val esports he wont know who yay is, and especially not who forsaken is lmao. Casuals are th majority of val fans and they know about tenz the most
people who aren't into val esports but know tenz are cs players, i'd have no idea who he is if not for my general interest in esports. anyone interested in it tho' will know that both players i mentioned outshine tenz nowadays, unless they are just too biased.
S1mple and from what i know Faker are both at least near the top of their respective esport, tenz is not.
Sen tenZ household name after sentinels bought his contract for $1 mil and master 1 run.admit it HE WAS
Everybody is thinking of pro, but what about Tarik, has the most viewers nowadays and is the most active as a true content creator
