Just my take on who's looking the best at the moment. Obviously very biased because of last masters and this qualification, and anything can change very fast because Valorant is just like that at the moment.

1. Fnatic
2. Optic
3. FPX
4. Loud
5. EG
6. PRX
7. Zeta
8. 100T
9. DRX
10. Guild

Honorable mentions: XSET, Xerxia, M3C, Ghost, and TGRD.

Lmk what you guys think!

I don't think Sheydos would perform on agents like Jett and Chamber like he does on Sage, Skye, etc. I do agree deffo is probably the weakest link on the team, so naturally they should just get Derke to replace him. Ez switch totally gonna happen. More seriously tho, they do need someone on par with Yay/Derke/Aspas in order to really step it up a level.

Massively rare APAC_jimmy W

I think If BIG wins their next match, M3C need to have beaten Liquid or they'll lose becasue by H2H they lost to BIG. If BBL beat Guild and BIG, then once again M3C need to beat Liquid. Basically unless BBL loses to Guild but beats BIG, M3C need to beat Liquid to qualify. This might be wrong tbh.

We'll see!

I don't think so? I'm honestly not sure who can/can't qualify in EMEA group B, but good luck to M3C to turn this around

Hold the phone, we'll come back to this in a few months

It's not in map differential it's in head to head

Wait till EG beats Fnatic then we'll talk

I honestly really like Optic as a team, so on some level, I'm sad to see them lose, but I've been worried that NA had a bit of a gap between them and other teams. EG beating them means we got more potential great teams, which is so good for NA's chances internationally. Very excited for next masters!!

Ofc not but still they're looking good and I think they'll beat NRG. I hope they do at least. Although with the seeding it would be a bit rough if they play someone like Optic first thing.

There's been like 5 2v5s they've won

HOLY SHIT

Obviously we want full competitvness but I think the crowd would make up for it anyway, plus I doubt any FPX or someone can't make it this time.

No way you're gonna say it isn't exciting without EMEA. Every run from minor region teams had so much hype behind it both last tournament and at champs.

Lmfao how are you not banned yet with that name

Zellsis and Ethan switched

This is awful

Shownu

You haven’t seen this copypasta before?? It’s iconic

Yk that team was lowkey overpowered. They had Stellar, Cryo, Bang, and Zander. No wonder they were fucking destroying the NA tier 2 scene.

I think sentinels's chances went UP if anything. Rawkus was lowkey great against Optic.

I lowkey like C9 and Fnatic's

Honestly yeah. Nothing beats butt pics this morning

NOT SEN???

Ok real shit tho mce said they were doing pretty damn good in scrims and I trust mce. They’re still not qualifying tho LMFAO

Bro he said sick could teach chronicle and Tenz could replace Deffo on an Russian speaking team….

Benkai is a big w

Bro opened a fucking resturant and is now balling as a top NA kayo/raze, you can't hate on that.

Also Leaf is sick so Zombs is subbing in for him

I love trembo

"I made it the fuck up"

I don't like that guy too much. Vastly prefer Sovereign Guides and Valorant Ascended or just watching Sliggy live.

Do you have the link? I wanna watch that

1. Optic
   (Not gonna bother explaining)

2. Ghost, 100T, or Guard
   Ghost and 100T have made some incredible improvements recently and XSET’s doomed to be 4th as always. C9 looks like they’ve fucked up and they’re not gonna be good enough to make it all the way. And while it’s true Guard lost their first two games with that bad role switch, now that Saya’s back on entry I think they can beat XSET and NRG and make playoffs. Then it’s anyone’s game. I just really want a redemption arc for them at masters, and I want them to be able to play more international teams on LAN and get better.

Weren’t you saying optic was a fluke anyway

ok kristof

At the moment, Fnatic are honeymooning hard so they would SMASH optic. Do I think fnatic would win in a month? Probably not.

title

Genuinely 2-11 are tossups. If I matched any of those teams against any other team I have no clue who would be favored to win. Optic will always win and Sen will always lose tho.

TGRD is a definite posibility. They have a good record against XSET and they're returning to form.

FNS would be midrounding

No joke you're sleeping on Ghost. I think everyone in this group could get out of it. It's such a bizarre group.

You know what. That last half of bind was the only good valorant I've seen Sentinels play all year. Good job to them, please get the players on different teams where they could actually perform again.

I did I'm so sad

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT SEN ARE HAVING SOME GOOD ROUNDS

Honestly they had 3 good rounds! That's more than I expected so I'll take it.

Yes

WHAT THE FUCK

Last time they played, guard dominated them
