This is considering that Apeks win ascension so a player like Enzo wouldn’t be available.

Thoughts?

repost btw but changed some stuff

Might need to reconsider for a repost 🧐

this is considering Apeks win ascension and Enzo stays on Apeks. Logan wouldn’t fit the controller role as he never played it, he played sentinel. Wailers did play controller and it wouldn’t make sense to get rid of nivera for Logan.

I only put TakaS on duelist bc he def deserves franchising and this would be the only team that would make sense. And scream is decent on flex with kayo and Skye and the secondary duelist.

EG will fall off in champs and get max 5-6. Top 4 in no particular order will be FNC, PRX, LOUD, and EDG. And yes LOUD will recover from their one bad tournament.

Tomaszy is def franchising worthy but if he joins a shit team like koi or heretics, his potential won’t be shown. I think he should join Giants. Giants is pretty decent and their major weak link is def fit1nho. So I think he has to go and they bring in tomaszy. I could see them being top 4 or 5 with this roster. Thoughts?

sentinels should make him the f0rsaken of Americas. Make him
ultra flexible and just be good on so many agents and retain that crisp aim.

I know some of these agents are agents that these players haven’t really played yet, but the point of this break was to learn these new agents and to make these players more flexible.

The UK only has a couple of good players like boaster, Mistic, Soulcas but they have so many coaches and analysts. In the EMEA league at least half of the teams have some kind of British person in their coaching staff. Like vitality has 4 British coaches out of their 6. Even tier 2 teams like Apeks have British coaching staff. Why is this?

Starxo played a lot of controller when he won champions so he’s good at it too

starxo was helping with calls on ascend so he could def become full time igl

-Wolfen
-koldamenta
-BARBARR
+Tomaszy
+kiles
+Nbs

New team with fixed roles:
Tomaszy/duelist
Kiles/Sentinel
Sheydos/flex
Trexx/initiator
Starxo/controller

Nbs/Head Coach
goked/Analyst
Bambino/Assistant Coach

IGLing could be learned by anyone on the team besides trexx and tomaszy. Also with this roster, they have a competent duelist and fixed roles. Thoughts?

EDIT: this is considering Apeks make franchising so their players won’t be available.

if Navi make it through LCQ and if FPX beat Tyloo to qualify to champs, then there is a possibility that we can see a NAVI vs FPX matchup in champs.

These are players from each role who had an incredible performance on that role in their peak. This list won’t just necessarily have tournament winners, it will have the the most impactful players and the tournament they peaked in.

this is the reality for so many NA players bc EMEA has so many unnecessary teams and players in franchising.

edit: NA has the biggest problem because na only has 5 teams with 25 players rn and to be honest, the players on NRG, EG, and C9 are almost unchanageable because they are very worthy of franchising. So challengers players will either have to hope that SEN or 100T will pick them up or have them go all the way through ascension. Many M80 players are going to be screwed by this.

Btw I just want to point out, if can have a separate leagues for china, Korea and Brazil in league of legends, I think 5 reasonable leagues in valorant is very viable. Especially with how popular the game has become globally.

Americas has way too much talent to be limited to just 10 teams and 50 players. Americas should be divided into 2 separate leagues.
North America - 10 Teams
South America - 10 Teams
-6 brazil teams
-2 Latin America North teams
-2 Latin America South teams

Emea should stay the same, just maybe change out one of the Spanish teams because we don’t need 3 and replace them with a MENA team like Team Falcons or RA’AD.

Pacific could also be divided into 2 leagues. East Asia and APAC.

East Asia - 10 Teams
-4 China Teams
-3 Korea Teams
-2 Japan Teams
-1 Hong Kong/Taiwan Team
APAC - 10 Teams
-1 Vietnam Team
-1 India Team
-1 Thailand Team
-2 Philippines Team
-1 Oceania Team
-2 MY/SG Team
-2 Indonesia Team

Thoughts?

The guard prob won’t get any of them bc they just won ascension. NRG, and EG have already very good rosters so I don’t see them making any changes. C9 could make changes but probably won’t. Sentinels and 100 thieves are the most likely to get the m80 guys, but who will get who and who leaves franchising?

I don’t think MIBR can pick up any of the Furia, loud players or sacy and pancada. This should be their new roster:

Askia (duelist)
Havoc (flex)
Raafa (initiator)
GuhRVN (sentinel)
RgLMeister (controller)

bzkA (Head Coach)
peu (Assistant Coach)
TxoziN (Analyst/Sub)

Could be a decent roster?

I think it terms of NA franchised teams, NRG, C9, and EG probably won’t make any changes for 2024 season. 100T and SEN definitely will tho. If the guard lose ascension, 3 will go to Sen and 2 will go to 100T replacing derrek and stellar. If M80 lose ascension, 3 will go to Sen and 2 will go to 100T replacing derrek and stellar.

fl1pzjder - sentinel
TenTen - duelist
pancc - controller (should be easy for him to flex to controller because he’s good at flexing to underage from overage)
ntk - initiator
sinatraa - flex

coach: rob-wiz
analyst: XSET Ayrin’s killjoy turret
Org owner: Carlos Rodriguez (ex g2)

banger roster right?

banger roster right?

btw this is based off of entertainment so that can include anything from pro gameplay to actual humor.

For me it’s Ardiis and it’s not even close. Actual funniest man alive.

I know none of the emea lcq are gonna win shit in champs but this is the ranking for the lcq

1. NAVI
2. GIANTS
3. BBL
4. TEAM HERETICS
   5-6. KC and KOI

chamber is clearly very good on bind as we have seen, but I think The Guard have the right agents on the wrong people. Trent is a decent raze but I think tex is a much much better raze. So I think the comp should be:
Tex: raze
Trent: Skye
Valyn: brimstone
neT: viper
JonahP: chamber

JonahP is pretty solid chamber as he almost only played chamber during 2022 LCQ in which he stood strong against other chamber mains during that meta. Thoughts?

add now pls vlr admins/mods

c9 proceed to make a deep run in champions 2023 but then drop their entire roster besides jakee and Runi in 2024 due to “role issues”. They proceed to pick up 3 players from the ex mad lions roster which leads to them not winning a single best of 3 in the entire season.

#36

you will get to ascension final and then throw by going -40 on deadlock

after sentinels get the valorant grand slam by winning both Americas splits, both masters, and champions, people are still saying yay clears TenZ.

first of all, I’m big fan bodork, love rendevous podcast. And also next year TSM leave NA because it’s a dead region and sign ex-who cars because they are in the ascension tournament as the only unsigned team.

Fnatic will win Tokyo

Yes, and it comes out in winter 2024

FNS retires from valorant and yay joins Nrg as IGL, NRG fail to make masters 1 under the new IGLing but then make masters 2 and champs but get middling results.

OXG drop rustun and pick up neT and ending up winning ascension in the final 3-2 against The Union.

In Round 4 of map 3 in the champions finals, EG rush into site and Jawgemo uses his raze ult and gets and ace because all five of the Fnatic members are grouped up.

Fnatic beat EG in an intense 3-2 match. Every map is either 13-11 or goes overtime.

In EMEA, Apeks dominate everyone and qualify to the franchised league without dropping a map. In pacific, BLEED and Dplus dominate everyone without dropping a map on opposite end of the bracket and end up in the grand final and Bleed wins 3-2.

in 2024 they keep their roster and drop Foxy9, and DRX qualifies to all 3 lans as the 3rd seed. In both masters they get grouped but in champions they go on a crazy bracket run to eventually end up on 3rd place. Although every match is very close and they always go OT and they got all mediocre opponents.
After 2024 they don’t qualify to anymore lans until 2026 where they drop their whole roster and pick up the crazy T1 roster which gives them great success. Still couldn’t win a lan though.

Yes, 100T drop derrek and stellar and pick up Trent and Flyuh. They elevate the team and 100T qualify to both masters next year as the 3rd seed in both. In the first masters they get grouped but in the second masters, they make it to playoffs but the get eliminated first. They qualify to champions and make a Cinderella run all the way to 4th place with bang and Trent being actual menaces.

M80 absolutely decimate everyone the whole tournament until the final against The Guard who have hardly made it to the final. M80 beat The Guard in 3-1 with each map being very close.

Talon goes onto win LCQ 2023 but then gets grouped in champions. In 2024 they sign some of the players from MiTH and end up making 5-6 in masters 1. They qualify to masters 2 but then get last place. In champions they destroy everyone in group stage but then get a hard bracket in the playoffs and get out first.

anything valorant esports related in the future I know the answers to.

LOUD had one bad tournament, they still dominated the Americas league and they will innovate in champs and make 4th

ur right I forgot, I changed it

first of all, let’s be honest, other then maybe Cloud9, there isn’t any lcq team that is actually good enough to win champions.

So here is the top 5

1/2. Paper Rex (with something)
1/2. Fnatic

3. EDG (copium)
4. LOUD
5. EG
6. Cloud9

NRG don’t make a top 3 in any tournament the entire year

Duelist:
Cryo
Initiator:
Verno
Flex:
Asuna
Controller:
bang
Sentinel:
Flyuh (IGL)

if they want to be competitive in champions or LCQ, I think they will have to make roster changes. Ange1 is just not at the fragging level to be 1 of the starting 5, they should move him to an assistant coaching role to help d00mbros and have him as a sub. Also cNed and zyppan just aren’t doing the best in their roles. Like cNed just isnt a derke or a something or a demon1 and zyppan isn’t a Leo or a d4v4ai or ethan. They need to dropped and new talent needs to picked up. Thoughts?
