Its all manual.

Yeah, the stats page can't handle displaying every game ever, so it needs to be broken down into chunks. I found it easiest to sort by each agent when looking for max kills. It should? cover every match ever.

Its also less OTs than most of the other big ones.

There are a couple other 50+ bombs, but that is the highest I could find on VLR.

going by the roles you have laid out there:
heat > gaabx > Jonn > Liazzi > artzin > chase > gobera > cortezia
shion > Brinks > CTC > silentzzz > pollo > murizzz > ryotzz > myssen
krain > jzz > adverso > denaro > bnj > gust1nha > leozin > v1nny
rglm > Txddy > gtn > mnds > Maverick > pleets > luk b4rtin?
frz > matheuzin > bezn1 > prince > rnd > xenon > fuzari > flainzzz

If I thought about it harder, I would probably rearrange a few, but here's a rough estimate.

imo, MIBR will give LOUD a run for their money as best BR team.

I'll be honest, I would have changed 24/35 of those symbols.

Its just some template that the system uses when it can't find the tweet I pointed it to.

The tweet needed some time to register in the system, I added it a few seconds before I published

aargh. I was so close. 58 is basically 60

Even if these articles get less pageviews than others (forum posts are not necessarily proportional to views btw), it doesn't mean it was a waste of time or effort.
Thousands of people have viewed these articles in the past day, and plenty of them got more from them than if they were a single condensed article.
Even from a purely material point of view, articles get ads on screens and drives revenue.

You saw nothing ;)

you spelled bstrdd wrong ;)

I've been a lava hound main since 2016.

I haven't played in a year or two but my deck is:
Lava hound
Graveyard
Lumberjack
minions
goblins
cannon
arrows
dart goblin

It doesn't hurt that out of 857 ranked games, Bind is the only one where I have a positive winrate and K/D. Winning cures all ills.

Bind. Ascent gets close, but I still have to go with my home ground.
1) Bind
2) Ascent
3) Fracture
4) Split
5) Haven
6) Icebox
7) Pearl
8) Breeze

Hudsen is our resident time traveler. In a few minutes he is about to go back to yesterday and write this.

In Europe, he has the 5th highest K/D all time (minimum 3000 rounds)

They just have to submit a roster to Riot. Announcements can come whenever I believe. Riot are going to publish a list of contracts that updates after 48 hours of a contract being in place, so I assume the official list will be started in the next couple of days. That isn't certain though. I haven't read the procedures thoroughly.

Shroud hasn't technically officially left, so he will probably stick on the roster list until they either announce that he is gone or until they play with a full roster without him. (Franchising lists will probably make that clear pretty soon)

I started reading your post and thought "hey, thats a team I would pick", and then I read the whole thing lol.
Sacy and pANcada are going to be really difficult to replace, but there are definitely some good players available.

If you throw your viper snakebite on the enemy snakebite, it only does friendly fire damage (a lot less than normal damage). So you throw your teams' snakebite on the bomb, and the defuser doesn't have to worry very much about the moly damage.

Today there was yet another case of a bug being abused, and the competitive integrity of the tournament being disrupted as a result of that and the admin response. I just made a twitter thread discussing my thoughts on the matter. I will throw in my opinions here as well.

I am once again asking for an updated ruleset regarding bug "abuse" in competitive games. The current system suffers four main problems.

1) What is an exploit?
2) Poor communication of banned actions
3) Inconsistent punishments
4) Untimely reaction speeds

Instead of leaving everything up to admin discretion on the spot (which often ruins the competitive experience and integrity because it takes too long to decide), a more concrete set of rules should be implemented. Even if the rules cause problems, they can be IMPROVED.

1) Define and maintain a list of banned exploits.

This requires effort which might require money, but economically, the fallout from poor handling of situations (there have been plenty) far outweigh hiring someone to maintain/decide on a list of banned actions.
With this, tournament admins can still choose to ban whatever additions they want, pre-event, mid-event, or even mid-map if they notice a bug they want to ban, but only transgressions committed after the ban has been clearly communicated to both teams are eligible for punishment.

2) Communication is key.

Pretty much every major bug scandal has happened because someone didn't know it was a banned exploit.
Even if you think they should have known, the fact that this keeps happening ruins the competitive environment.
It must be made INEXCUSABLE for pro players to not know what is banned.
A central list of all banned exploits applied to all Riot sanctioned events solves this problem.
There is no confusion about what is banned. If a player does not know, it is ON THEM.

3) Inconsistent punishments are inherently unfair for everyone

The arbitrary application of all these punishments: replay maps, part of maps, forfeit rounds, forfeit maps, be DQ'd from tournaments, all contributes to the biggest problem of them all.
If punishments are inconsistent, NO punishment is fair.
Better defining what is and isn't allowed can help define better rules for tournament admins on how to handle situations.
One proposal I have is to classify bugs on the central list where clear and intentional exploits are an instant match forfeit but maybe lesser bugs just incur an initial warning.
If admins catch something before the next round starts, they can replay the round or something like that.
The point is: There is SOME system for punishments applied to EVERYONE.

4) If the admins have some system to follow, they can increase the efficiency of the problem solving many times over.
Games that are delayed 30+ minutes because admins have to FIGURE OUT what to do are ruined.

I don't have all the solutions.
Riot have people writing rulebooks that can do what I said here and make it actually viable.
There will be problems with any ruleset, but making it concrete means that it is EQUITABLE, and that it can be improved with feedback.
The current system is damaging the competitive ecosystem, and certain issues CANNOT be solved without more concrete direction.
As a side note, I have not read the official Riot rulebook, but the current ruleset (its implementation at the very least) clearly displays these significant problems that need to be addressed.

What do you think of this problem? Its not a simple problem, so don't flame anyone
Asking for input from these forums is like sifting through sands to find a diamond, but I know there are some gems here. (Just kidding, I appreciate you all, especially you delusional_potter_fan 😉)

One of my favorite moments

Same. So many good memories. Even after I became a filthy Dredge main and got even Raynday annoyed with me lol.

Hes not a superstar, but he can be one of the best supportive pieces in Brazil. He has played from the start of BR Valorant to now against the top teams in the region and has a top 5 K/D all time in Brazil. He really found his sweet spot on sentinels. He isn't the type of player that takes over the game, but his consistency has been incredible. The one red flag is his poor international performances, but that is a pretty small sample size on a team (Vikings) that was still figuring out how to adapt strategically.

I know, but he asked for the top 5-10 IGLs in Brazil

In Stage 2 it was:
xand for NIP
nzr for FURIA
saadhak for LOUD
shion for Liberty
murizzz for VK
Maverick for SH
gtn for MIBR
lukzera for TBK
Nyang for GLB
pleets for LOS

Something along these lines is in the works.

I've posted things.
Just a couple things ;)

Thanks man

This man used a SacyDay profile pic on twitter today. He was an EMEA stan actively rooting AGAINST OpTic lol.

I've seen a bit of talk about headshot percentage in Valorant vs. CSGO, and while a bunch of people know the difference, there is still a lot of people in the dark. CSGO headshot percentages are much higher if you look at HLTV vs. if you look at any Valorant stats website. That is because it is not the same HS%.

CSGO counts the percentage of kills that were finished off by a headshot.

Most Valorant websites count the percentage of bullets hit that were a headshot.

If bullets are missed entirely, it doesn't affect HS% in either game. There are a lot of reasons why a player would miss a ton of bullets (spamming walls, shooting utility, bming dead bodies) that would make counting missed shots useless. Also, headshot % is a pretty useless statistic. The correlation between a high HS% and being a top player is pretty weak. Even if you think one way of counting HS is better, it can only really be used as a fun stat if someone does really good or really bad at it.

Which way of counting headshots do you prefer?

Yes.

Duelists:
aspas - Teams that win tend to dominate the fantasy stats, so I'm hopping on the LOUD train
Cryocells - Chamber players are great for K/D and cryo is $300 cheaper than yay

Initiators:
Sacy - 1700 is a steal
nzr - very cheap and very reliable even if his team doesn't do well

Sentinels:
BuZz - Somehow only 1600. Big steal for one of DRX's best
Quick - I was running out of money, and Quick is easily the most skilled of the 1400 or less players

Controllers:
pancada - Marved is too expensive, so I went for the silent assassin
Bcj - 1300 wildcard. If XSET do well, this will pay off

Pick eight players as normal to be your "team". For the group stage, you pick five to actually get you points (one is the captain and is worth 1.5x points). Every single match day in the playoffs, you can set a new five man active team to get you points out of your eight man roster.

If you click on any stat on the map/match pages it automatically sorts by that stat. The non-ACS default sorting issue is known. It will be changed in time... Until then, its not a huge issue imo as a stats nerd.

EMEA is finished and NA won't start for an hour or so. Come see FURIA vs. TBK for a spot at Champions.

FURIA have a ton of skill and are very entertaining to watch, and TBK have a great underdog story.

Until the inevitable roster shuffle, it is the best LATAM has to offer besides LOUD/KRU. Come check it out!

Dang. Was this a web scraper? I'm assuming you found a way to automate this.

Agreed. The scriptwriters couldn't have written it better. All the storylines build to this.
