im ranking based off how good they were compared to competition/world at time of running up

1. GenG, after champs people forgot that geng were legit the best team itw last year, sen were just their kryptonite
2. Gambit, Acend had a miracle run that should have ended at Vivo Keyd, Gambit were insanley good for their time
3. OpTic, The only team still to have gotten top 3 in all internationals in a year, Loud were rlly good tho so their at 3 cause the gap compared to the rest of the world was far closer cause of loud mostly
4. Loud (Reykjavik), they were hella good like 1-2 itw at the time, but they bombed out of copenhagen so that knocks them down a bit
5. Loud (Lock//In) They should have won this event tbh, but fnatic were also insane
6. Evil Geniuses, the first look into one of the best teams this game has ever seen but not clear number 1's at the time cause prime fnatic were different
7. Heretics (Both), this is where the teams start to look like clear 2nd or lower in the world, heretics were insane all this year but they were not better than geng or edg
8. Paper Rex (Champs), people dog on prx but back in 2023 with double duelist prx were insane and the comeback is gonna happen this year (copium)
9. Fnatic (Masters 1), they were second best itw for sure but everyone was straight cheeks then and tenz was farming
10. Envy, yay was the only one who remembered that right click shoots ur gun
11. Paper Rex (Masters 2 2022), as much as i hate to say it cause prx are my fav team, this shit was a cinderella run and FPX were really good then
