Yes, rankings change over time and I 100% expect the rankings to be completely different next year. It would just be interesting to see how the community view these players right now and compare that to past and future surveys.

posted about 3 years ago

Typo: SMB Brave, not SMB Braze

I've done this one after Masters 3 so I'm interested how the rankings would change after Champions.

Survey link: https://www.allourideas.org/2021ValorantProRankings

The site will present you 2 players from any region. All you have to do is choose the "better" player between the two. There is no criteria on what "better" means so it's up to your opinion on which criteria you would use to pick out the better player. You can stop the survey anytime by just leaving the website.

The players in the survey include everyone who participated in Champions + some LCQ teams + some well-known players that didn't make it to LCQ.
If you don't know any of the players, you can click on "I can't decide" to skip. You can keep answering as much pairs as you want but you can also stop at any time.

For reference, the top 10 post-Berlin (Masters 3) were:

  1. nAts
  2. TenZ
  3. cNed
  4. yay
  5. ScreaM
  6. Asuna
  7. ShahZaM
  8. nitr0
  9. Chronicle
  10. keloqz

Thank you for reading my post and participating!

I feel like Chronicle is still being slept on by VLR.

DubsteP is getting quite old so if a PH superteam would be made, it would probably have GianSanity in it.

posted about 3 years ago

Biggest surprise: Sushiboys, Witz, Leaf (I knew he was good but he exploded against TL)

Biggest disappointment: Not really disappointed in a lot of players. Maybe underwhelmed is the better word. Tenz was fine until the last map against KRU. Starxo hasn't been fragging like he used to but that's because he's not being asked to frag anyway.

The language barrier would be a big thing for a SEA superteam though. Trust me, "just speak in English" is easier said than done especially in a communication-heavy game like Valorant.

Sinatraa won't solve their problems. They have the talent already. They just have to keep grinding and practice as a team instead of typing tweets.

Masters 2
NA win V1 vs TL
NA win SEN vs FNC
EU win FNC vs V1
NA win SEN vs FNC

Masters 3
NA win SEN vs G2
EU win G2 vs SEN
NA win 100T vs ACE

Champions
EU win FNC vs C9
EU win TL vs SEN
EU win ACE vs NV
EU win TL vs C9

The year ends with EU leading 6-5.

If you count the Gambit games against 100T and Envy, the record is 7-6

There's this one person in Sentinels who might look pretty good in a C9 jersey. Maybe he can help.

Not Valorant but Russel Van Dulken hits hard. Hope he switches to Valorant in like 3 years.

posted about 3 years ago

Bracket A:
Envy vs Crazy Raccoons
Vikings vs Furia

Bracket B:
Sentinels vs Full Sense
Vision Strikers vs Keyd Stars

Who do you think will win?

posted about 3 years ago

They can put up a fight but I still see Acend and Gambit winning the series.

posted about 3 years ago

NA and BR superteams. Just like Liquid and Luminosity/SK in CSGO

Eh, I wasn't amazed by NBK's performance in the BLAST Spike event thingy. Granted that no one really tried hard that tournament but for him and other guys like kennyS, it was an opportunity to show what they can do against pros.

Or maybe he didn't just pop off because kennyS was on fire.

posted about 3 years ago

TenZ has the talent but not the experience and mentality. Stewie has both experience and mentality and he won't be playing duelist like TenZ so he doesn't have to frag a lot.

posted about 3 years ago

Tbf, it's a running theme that if you're bad in CS, you'll be good in Valorant lol

  • Make a roster change
  • Win every event in NA
  • Still lose in international events because NA is actually bad
posted about 3 years ago

Elimination game against Envy: 8-18
Elimination game against KRU: 9-20

It's clear that he's underperforming but I hope he gets it together

posted about 3 years ago

Asuna
Ethan
Hiko
TenZ
Stewie2k

impossible to happen but ill probs watch every single game they play lmao

posted about 3 years ago

People hate on him because of his LAN antics but he's really good. You can make an argument that he's a top 10 EMEA player.

posted about 3 years ago

Tbh NA sentinels aren't excellent. Dapr is fine in NA's context.
Maybe dephh for Ethan?
Shahzam has more firepower than vanity and steel though so I guess it's fine.

posted about 3 years ago

NA has a lot of talent but it's spread out. They can make two superteams that would be good internationally.
Team A: TenZ, Wardell, crashies, vanity, dapr
Team B: Yay, Asuna, Shahzam, Ethan, steel

Chronicle and Nivera's crosshair.
No pic but it's 1-2-1-2 with outlines on
Reason: This was my crosshair in CSGO so I used it in Valorant. It's just a simple crosshair and nothing fancy, I was just surprised when two of my favorite players used it too.

posted about 3 years ago

One of the best series in VCT history for sure. TenZ and ScreaM were both evenly matched. TenZ was 47-47-8 while ScreaM was 46-46-9.

They even went 13-13 head to head.

Ok but tbf you cant spell Liquid without an L too

posted about 3 years ago

it's a long shot bc of scheduling but if ever the camera is considered an exploit, I just want them to replay Breeze. Losing the map or going down 0-1 against NV/X10 isn't fair to me and I wanna see them fight for it again.

Scream, Jamppi, and Nivera is Liquid's three headed beast

L1NK and Soulcas is Liquid's extra two-headed beast

CR vs VKS and C9 vs Fnatic weren't obvious for me tbh

When Sentinels fans called a 14-12, 16-14, 13-11, grand finals a stomp.

posted about 3 years ago

I doubt it unless an IGL of his caliber is available in EU.

posted about 3 years ago

I just wanna see TS get more than 6 rounds in total against Gambit tbh. One or two dubstep highlights would be great too.

posted about 3 years ago

I hit 100k once in my 60 Hz laptop. My average was around 88-90k before I stopped. It's possible to improve in 60 Hz but getting a better monitor would help a lot. I just switched to 165 Hz this week and my reactions are already noticeably faster.

Leena won't let an alleged sexual harasser into her org. Even if Sinatraa is innocent, it would still probably place a negative image on TSM's name and Leena doesn't want that.

posted about 3 years ago

Ability skins would only work for a select few agents. Chamber, Killjoy, and Raze are the ones that come to mind.

posted about 3 years ago

They looked pretty good in Challengers Playoffs. Hope they can improve so CIS would have another good team outside of Gambit.

  1. nAts
  2. TenZ
  3. cNed
  4. yay
  5. ScreaM

My top 6-10 isn't as clear cut like my 1-5 but it probably includes: Asuna, Chronicle, Nukkye, crashies, and ShahZam in no order.

posted about 3 years ago

Ep 1: Iron 2
Ep 2: Gold 3
Ep 3: Plat 1

Haven't played ranked since reaching Plat because I'm waiting for my new PC first. My old laptop runs the game at 50 fps so I'm still happy with my rank.

Well Liquid was NA's best chance and they kinda fucked up sadly

posted about 3 years ago

Their firepower isn't insane. Derke just played out of his mind that's why they looked scary in Stage 2. Derke isn't himself as of now but I hope he gets it together before Champions.

won't it be streamed on twitch?

Acend is S
Liquid is A
Fnatic, SMB, Futbolist are B
Oxygen, NIP, OBG are C

posted about 3 years ago

Which teams do you want to see them in? I'm specifically talking about EliGE, NAF, and Stewie2k

EliGE or NAF might look good on 100T while Stewie can be an IGL for another team.

Just a food for thought since Liquid CSGO is a dumpster fire right now.

posted about 3 years ago

I agree for the most part but I feel like C9 is better than Kru.

Also, 4, 5, 6 should be VS, Acend, TL

posted about 3 years ago

I honestly don't wanna say that TSM is overrated because everyone knows that TSM is bad lol.
SMB is overrated but they got exposed in Berlin and LCQ.
I think Faze might be overrated but I haven't really followed Faze that much but I do remember them being quite hyped up back then.
Lastly, I also wanna say Team Secret because I keep seeing people in this sub saying that they're a C-tier team worldwide because of how Paper Rex was pretty competitive in Berlin. Don't hype up TS too much. Obviously I'm happy that they're in Champions because it's the first time my country has a LAN representative in an FPS game but I feel like there are more deserving teams in APAC than them.

If Liquid still had Kryptix then I would agree with you. That iteration of Liquid might not have even beaten G2 in the LCQ. Nivera has given Liquid a steady and consistent option that they would have never gotten with Kryptix.
