Americas Kickoff Power Ranking
this is objectively correct and if someone not in the top 3 qualifies for santiago it’s because the vct script writers defied my direct orders
lev; i’m so hyped for this team it’s unreal. just a ton of fun, chaotic personalities playing FUN valorant instead of “perfect” valorant. idgaf if neon can’t be there for game 1+2 or whatever, this team will become a fan favorite and give americas some much needed energy. my goats spike and sato are about to be the new golden boys of vct and im so fuckin here for it
g2; still have the aura of dominating americas last year but also hungry for a real international trophy. i could see them definitely falling off a bit if this meta becomes very chamber dependent. like im sorry but putting leaf on breach should be a crime (also #justiceforjonahp)
nrg; as much as i hate them (them meaning their army sponsor), keiko is an undeniable upgrade, and i don’t see them feeling the wrath of The Champs Curse™️ right away. i’m predicting this is their only international appearance though cause im a hater and believe in The Curse™️
mibr; purely this low because they’ve had no practice. i understand any team aspas is on becomes Aspas and Friends, but i wanna see zekken really shine, while not having the added pressure of being the entry (allegedly he’s playing smokes but im BEGGING for him to do some yoru double-duelist stuff. my biggest gripe w sen last year was them abandoning yoru INSTANTLY after the tejo nerfs). also i think they should drop tex for jonahp (#justiceforjonahp) but thats neither here nor there
100t; this is pure bias because i’m the #1 Bangzerra Defender. i think he was completely misused last year on sen, fundamentally misunderstanding his strengths and trying to make him play like tenz. i’m mixed on the roster build though. i like bringing on an established core, but im not convinced on cryo’s senti when he’s Not on chamber. lucky for him maybe the meta is going full chamber so who gives a fuck if his killjoy sucks ass!
sen; this high cause i’ve seen more of them in the off season than anyone else. i mean this with the utmost respect but i don’t really love the roster construction here in terms of roles (reduxx should be duelist, n4rrate should be recon idgaf), and some of the comms i heard during sen classic/invi did not inspire confidence in terms of vibes…..also frankly i don’t buy that john’s calling was the problem last year, but i might be in the minority on that. the crumble of sen ‘25 is my personal roman empire and we’ll probably never know what the hell happened between those c9 and g2 games at the end there.
eg; honestly i can see this team being a real dark horse. i was really bummed to see them drop derrek but i understand the role conflict with c0m (although the fact that he was the Best Chamber on the roster last year, now possibly going into another chamber meta is funny), but i like okeanos and dgzin. i really hope the c0m + potter duo will bring us back to the interesting comps + stratbook that i normally expect from eg
kru; honestly i’m probably underrating them, but it’s mainly cause in my vct viewing tenure (2024+2025), i haven’t really been convinced by anyone on this roster. everyone tells me sadhaak is a goat igl but he’s been kinda Whatever in the two years ive been watching him. dante was incredibly disappointing last year, esp given how hyped up he was by the tier 2 knowers. silentzz was alright but he was on 2g, a team that was never able to reach their true potential. mwzerra is the biggest “who?” for me, like i barely remember him and he’s only been on furia of what i’ve seen so…….. less is great though, he and derke were trying to save the sinking ship of vitality with the tiniest life preservers imaginable
c9; number placement pun not intentional, but i’m just kinda meh on this team really. oxy is obviously good, penny and vic are talented but haven’t really gotten a real chance to shine. i think it was kinda scummy how they treated mitch to force zellsis in but whatever, they can keep thinking it was worth it i guess, yk whatever helps em sleep at night. they just need to learn that karma is gonna keep preventing them for going to an international if they’re gonna keep being snakey in the off season! jokes aside, i just don’t see how this team sneaks its way up the ranks to making a global. like the changes made aren’t obvious upgrades compared to the rosters they’re competing against
loud; just a nothing burger team tbh. lukxo being back on a portuguese speaking roster should help his performance immensely, he’s an incredibly talented senti. but idk i hope darker and virtyy are good, i dont really watch tier 2, but i hear that xolos lazer(?) team was good. as much as i like pancada idk about him really being an igl now, and idk cauanzin is just kinda whatever to me.
envy; i think this team is screwed in multiple ways. a) their two stars are too young to play, with one of them not being able to play AT ALL this year. b) their cypher one-trick is being giga-nerfed cause cypher is garbage now and i haven’t been impressed by his chamber. plus i don’t see a world where yoru isn’t decimated with nerfs at some point this year, so their yoru one-trick is also fucked. and c) the vibes are probably gonna be fucking rancid. i mean the team already is a bunch of ranked demons who are obnoxious in the comms anyway, but their subs are rossy, a dude who clearly struggles in a Team Environment, and keznit, a guy who doesn’t speak great english and also gets giga-tilted. like how is this not a recipe for disaster? pure spite?
furia; okay i know i was joking about the champs curse and c9 playoffs curse/karma earlier, but like i genuinely think the furia ceo made a deal with an enchantress to have a good cs team (or so i hear) and thus their valorant roster has to be horrendous. like there’s no other explanation. like how is it that NUMEROUS players will be incredible before going to furia, dogshit while on furia, then join a different team and be incredible again. adverso, tuyz, heat, dgzin…….witch magic is the only explanation!
never posted the chibi art here wtf i thought i did
