Maybe in early 2023, but I’d say Suygetsu is currently impressing me
He looks more constant then Shao as of late

Absolutely
People think he’s genuinely as good as Alfajer or Leo, even pros
The guys 17 let him breathe and improve

Agree with u on yay (as are most good players), why the other 3?

Agreed
He is good though very intelligent and reliable player but definitely overrated

Oh for sure
He’s improving so he is slowly reaching his potential but in 2022 and 23 bro was mad overrated

Hot takes please no asuna or sum obv shit
I wanna see explanation

What is this revisionist history how was Aspas top 3 in 2022

Jakee

Don’t know why loud don’t consider getting him to replace tuyz
New loud looks pretty good still cause qck looks fine but replacing tuyz could bring them close to the Aspas roster
Hopefully mid season changes 🤞

Rb is not better than Shao or victor, he only does well in 1-2 matches each international tourney, everything else looks perfect

Big L
Nzr was tied with kingg for second best player on lev with Aspas
In 2023 he has 1.12 rating in Americas league (#5) vs com 1.03 rating.
Always lev’s best or second best player even with kinggg and Aspas

Nzr
More consistent on a worse team, looked really good in the time we saw him on lev

I actually agree with the trexx hype. This is another guild Leo case, with a good team behind him he will be one of the absolute best in the world.

Any proof or you going off ranked games?
Don’t bring up pro play from 3 years ago either

I’m mostly basing my chronicle pred off of gambit and m3c in addition to fnatic. He’s a player that has very high peaks but isn’t quite as consistent as Leo or Alfa
He’s still very good for sure

Chronicle disappears when fnatic struggles, when they lose he’s does very poorly
He had a 1.15 rating for the year but a sub 1 rating in champs
Mako has been the goat controller but he has recently been doing more and more poorly

It’s cause they have great talent but I don’t trust king’s igling vs the fnatics NRG’s and prxs especially if someone on the team has an off day
So they will choke

Com and boostio are mid and will go back to being mid without a good roster around them
Jawgemo will do fine because he was actually good pre-demon1

Chronicle is very good but inconsistent
Mako will become washed and fall off in 2024
Yay will be absolute dogshit in 2024, because he struggles against aggro teams so apac will roll him

Lev will make it to a masters finals in 2024 and then choke
How many of these preds will I get right???

What are u yapping about
Guy hasn’t played pro in 3 years Vic and crashies clear stop dick eating

Palm claw

He was their 3rd or 4th best preforming player behind victor S0m and sometimes even crashies broski

Not sure if that’s “top”

Hard to tell when he’s on 100throws

I’d somewhat disagree with you
I think ardiis was insane at 2022 champs but fpx ardiis was never their star player compared to Shao or Suygetsu
And nrg imported him to replace yay
Should bought cryo or sayf in hindsight

It’s not ardiis fault as much as the fact that nrg didn’t really have a star player and needed victor and som and another player to preform in order to win
Not enough firepower to be consistent

2 matches does not overrule all of 2023, plus billibilli as a team beat nrg, but the individual players could still be better

Why are people shitting on victor when dude was top 9 in stats in Americas league, top 9 or 8 in stats in Tokyo, and top 11 in stats in champs

Also crashies was top like 6 in Americas league

Why are people so convinced these two are washed 2023 was their best year individually

He ain’t nearly that good
But yeah free scream

Biggest rank demon out there wtf are these stats
https://tracker.gg/valorant/profile/riot/KC%20ScreaM%231TAP/overview

He is so smooth with his awping
Most awpers in valorant are more twitchy

I somewhat agree, I think Aspas was quite overrated in 2022, and less and pancada were better imo
But after 2023 Aspas is the best in loud and probably the best player itw

Aspas so fine 🙄☺️

Agreed
I think he has potential to be a goat in the future but i still don’t think he’s quite top 10 itw, slightly inconcsistent

Ah makes sense

He must have had a really big buyout
No way this guy didn’t get into a franchising team, he’s my prediction for the next demon1
Redux and verno look amazing

Factual
C9 with yay weren’t even that bad they crushed prx and lost 2-1 to DRX who placed top 4
C9’s retarded management didn’t have patience beyond 2 matches to let the roster improve and didn’t make a single lan in 2023

Yeah exactly
Why is apac worse than Emea or Americas?
Less players willing to play competitive
Less infrastructure and support
Same thing with women they d didn’t get the support or build the same culture as male gamers due to video games being viewed as a male past time and as a result they are worse
There is no biological reason they would be worse
They will catchup in time, hopefully

How is yay that low go back and look at his champs matches bro was like +25 5 series in a row

Yay gets way more hate
Cned don’t get talked about much neither hate or praise

Saadhak I think
I do think that new loud has better players than nrg but optic and old loud had similar caliber of players
I think fns when he is feeling it can take over completely but saadhak is more consistent
High peaks < consistency

Hot take but I think kd is more indicative of good players over ACS/ADR or even rating
Kd can be boosted by baiting or eco frags/exits, but if u look at winning teams in tournaments, the winning team usually have the highest KDs
At the end of the day it’s a shooter game and killing someone and not dying is more important than anything

Tbf ascend was always really good against eu teams but weak against na or sa teams. For the most part they played eu in later stages of the tournament, plus they actually had a winning record against gambit. It was a good matchup for them even tho they weren’t the better team.

Imo soulcas has better aim but asuna is the better player. Asuna, tenz, soulcas, are all the same, fantastic players who can’t preform in pro because of some kind of discipline or confidence problem.

I hope less takes his time before igling bro is insane rn hopefully he only IGLs once he becomes washed 😂

Did u even read the post? I’m talking about IGLs I think have peaked and need to retire. Why would boaster be on that list when he is just hitting his prime

Hopefully, I really wish if fns taught victor or crashies how to igl, cuz crashies is so vocal and calm, and victor use to be the attack side midrounder on optic

I don’t mean goat, just respected IGLs who are famous for their midrounding, or IGLs whose impact can be visibly noticed

This might be a braindead take but I feel like the “goat” igls, other than saadhak, are losing their touch. It feels like FNS, angel, and stax specifically have hit their peaks. I think they need to train someone else to igl instead of them and coach instead. Their igling no longer gaps other IGLs like boostio, davaii, etc and their fragging (not stax) is a massive bottleneck.

Bros lost the plot

Yay
Demon was good in Tokyo but insane in champs
Tenz was insane in Reykjavik, quite good in Berlin, mediocre in champs
Yay was insane in Berlin, insane in Reykjavik , good in Copenhagen, insane in champs
Consistency > peaks

Did he actually confirm leaving nrg alongside S0m or is it just speculation?
