How Each VCT Playoff Team Can *WIN* Champions 2024

[@Cojitar]

Riot released a graphic of the top KD ratio players from the group stages and Aspas and kiNgg (both around 1.2) were both top 10 I believe. I love how it's questionable who will frag for LEV when there's 2 clear choices and Tex and Mazino are both known to have their insane moments. The real question for LEV is if our team play and mental are solid.

[@ThatNerdKaizen]

I swear I had such a brain fart when I made this. Can’t believe I forgot Kinggg 🤦‍♂️

Chronicle and Derke are up for Goat status. These two are so underrated. Everybody talks about Aspas or Tenz as goats. But these guys aren't behind either.

TBF, Derke is till pretty inconsistent, He's been doing pretty good recently but many of his yoru plays are so troll. Chronicle isn't really underrated, man has 4 titles to his name lmao. Stop saying underrated for every player you like man

It's so shocking to see only one in the apac goes into the playoffs, people really expected geng to qualify for playoffs; i guess its masters curse, mentally not prepared, or the loss of confidence after their defeat at the hands of TH. Well they're still a beast of a team and i hope they bounce back next year.

no cap i think after eg broke the second place curse, they introduced the first place curse. eg after champs disbanded their roster cuz of contract jails and stuff cuz shit organization, sentinels after winning Madrid didn't even qualify for the playoffs to qualify for masters shanghai, and now geng bombed out of the groups stages after winning shanghai

i don't get how people think heretics is going to bowl over fnatic when last time the two played it was a best of 5 that heretics got double bans and could force a sunset that fnatic had NEVER played before in officials, and fnatic still won 3-2. since adding hiro fnc is looking arguably BETTER than this. i think fnatic just have heretics number

[@SirCarmelli]

6:45 i think sen can beat g2. they only lost once to them with the current roaster. and thats bc johnqt played deadlock on both maps. 11:54 u forgot kingg? he is the second best player for sure

Viewer wise they made a huge mistake making 3 of the matches same region, it's gonna be boring cause one of your region teams gonna Have to be in the lower bracket, so you already lose 1 chance of your region team of winning Champs most likely

Chinese valorant is pretty mid y’all can say whatcha want but that’s a fact it’s gonna take atleast another year or 2 for any Chinese team to be most competitive. Not saying their ass but I don’t see any Chinese team making it to quarters this year no shot.
