Y'all seriously underate David he all the fans hype aside he is really good, and d4v4i being their(PRX) 4th best player is absolute bs Copenhagen he was their highest rated player Champs 2022 he was their highest rated player Pacific 2023 he was top 2 in the league Masters Tokyo he was their highest rated player Champs 2023 he was their highest rated player Pacific Kickoff he was their second highest rated player Madrid was the only one he wasn’t top 2 And mind you he is also a flex player not as big as foresaken but he still played 3 roles (senti, controller, initiator)

[@chetan69]

And yeah this pacific he was the 2nd best rated player in the whole region

[@sEaNoYeAh]

Sideshow didn't say he was their 4th *best* player, he said he was their 4th *most important player* to their play style. And that's true even if he's arguably their most in-form player right now. He's the most standard player on the team, but they categorically need f0rsaken to achieve their W key gaming style, he enables everything and sets the tempo. Jinggg's aggressive space taking too, then something I think they said. Like Jinggg and maybe even moreso f0rsaken are completely irreplaceable in the job they do and the way they do it. There's not another player on the planet like f0rsaken. Whereas there are other people who play like D4V4I and do his job, he's just the best at it right now.

This is badly needed for top 10 platchat moments

[@musculusiv4172]

44:12 Btw 6 teams is NO EXCUSE to do single elim. A double elim playoff bracket with 6 teams is super easy: 1. Do a 4-team double elim "group" like they do at masters. The 2 winners of the stage skip this "group stage" 2. The 2 teams that came through the group + the 2 stage winners do a normal 4-team double elim bracket It's literally the same as masters last year, easiest bracket of my life

[@musculusiv4172]

45:59 No, this is a complete non-reason. It took me 5s to think of the bracket I posted above, if anyone working at riot is in possession of a semi-functional brain they could have thought of this as well

Bren threw this whole episode and it was great 😂😂

[@codyvan284]

My Top 10 but in no Particular Order: Cryo, KangKang, Texture, Aspas, Leo, Alfa, Jingg, Something, Forsaken, Cned. PRX look the strongest coming into this event. I haven’t seen their’s yet, but I think their 10 will be similar.

[@alexwoodbury8484]

With yay ive heard other pros talk about it, picking the biggest org or the biggest bag is often a mistake if its not a team you want to play with. I know yay got the bag at bleed but its really not worth it at this point.

cned and kangkang in top 10 is crazy, especially above f0rsaken

[@alexwyffels9788]

Every player from PRX could've been on that list tbh. F0rsaken does play a lot of different agents at a very high level which brings a lot of freedom but overall I don't know if you can say that f0rsaken is putting up better performances on any of those agents than Jinggg is on raze or something is on jett. Personally I think d4v41 has been their best player this split but like I said all of them could be top 10 imo.

[@barney2120]

Me, a Gen.G fan: Sideshow is correct, y’all go home. On a different note, Leo is always going to be one of the best players at any given tournament. His consistency is incredible and I think he often is overlooked because he’s not flashy. He’s such an amazing player.

Aspas never loses an aim duel, he’s ice cold and electric at the same time and it wild, however, Texture has sold his soul to some sort of primordial time god and can alter the fabric of reality to steal away with the craziest plays ever.

Dude its WILD how much Americas gets disrespected, even if they dont perform you'd think they'd have a TINY bit more faith just based on historical results. If any other region had performed as well as Americas has in recent valorant history they'd be glazing the F out of them, instead they're putting two Americas teams below a f'ing Chinese team and an EMEA team with a sub, like I cant with this crap man. And now if Americas does do poorly - for the first time in well over a year - and bomb out like EMEA did at Madrid they'll be treated like a fraud region, in spite of EMEA constantly getting the benefit of the doubt.
