chamber over phoenix, astra over sova, brim over kayo and then it's a W comp.

ascent has legitimately been here forever, so all map pools have been brought down by it
abyss is eh, kinda fun to watch but super ass to play
sunset is mid asf
icebox is also mid
meta is pretty good tho imo!

"L map pool" only bad maps are really Icebox and Abyss atm (maybe sunset too)
"L meta" no insanely broken agents, variety of duelists (jett, raze, neon, even some yoru and iso from fnatic)

Everything else i agree!

replace omen with iso and you might just have discovered the lotus meta

then i think lock in should be higher because the grand finals went to map 5 OT with (arguably) the greatest match of valorant ever, certainly best grand final ever, with insane games like NRG vs LOUD, DRX vs LOUD, and just overall every match being so hard to predict - even more so as teams had changed many players out so we had no idea who would be the best

competitiveness as in how "fair" the tournament is, or how stacked the top teams are / how close opponents and matches are?

i mean at madrid gen.g had a very deep map pool w/ 2 map bans and we know how that went...

i think he is the best player of all time, as he was really good in 2021, good in 2022, really good in 2023, and is performing exceptionally well in 2024 (this is all at international tournaments btw)

super good list, maybe put tex a little lower, i think trent and sacy can be swapped too as sacy has been incredible for sen this tournament

for me derke is either the best or second best duelist of all time, sayf is incredible but hasnt had the results yet to prove he deserves a spot

1. Derke
2. Chronicle
3. Aspas
4. Leo
5. Alfajer

alot of the time lurkers have to take the most 1v1s and players like alfajer and less have such crazy aim which makes them the best lurkers, duelists rely on a lot of support from the team whereas sentinels take their own fights and have to win them in order to get value

duelist is not the easiest agent, sentinel is not the hardest agent

Nice pickems

has to be up there for sure

kru went to every single event up until tokyo i believe
right now longest streak is propably paper rex?

OPTIC 3 - 0 LOUD
