LMAOOOO ENDING
Dude D4v41 is so consistent while actively supporting everyone else. Crazy that there are 3 PRX players and none are D4v41.
Bro also put insane stats this split much better than Jinggg and forsaken , bro is underrated
its okay he'd rather his teammates get all the buzz, he want to stay under pressure.
Kurt with the cliffhanger
Sliggy glazing Leo was the funniest thing i've seen
I definitely wouldnât call it glazing. Leo has been consistently goated, not making mistakes, hitting his util, and clutching up while extremely sick
that fact
KK over Forsaken is daylight robbery
That can't be real. Kangkang cant even be compared to forsaken the hell is this
Surely itâs an Easter egg troll job
yes i agree but KK turns up at master events and Bren is right there's an aura around this one
Least chaotic plat chat rankings.
realizing more and more how much i relate to bren and thats kinda terrifying
Other than d4v41 the most slept on player has to be valyn for me. Can carry his team against any opponent WHILE igling. Crazy
I know that nobody is expecting g2 to do much, though
.. all of the prx players are callers thereâs no igl
It took me a while to fully grasp this but I just realized that THE PLATCHAT COSTREAM IS BACK LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS
Ooohh shit I didnt realise either now I'm actually hyped!
David is absolutely their best player right now.
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 wasnât 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)
And yeah this pacific he was the 2nd best rated player in the whole region
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.
178 episodes in and somehow we still donât know what a POWER ranking is. balla pleaseee educate these people đ
platchat having forsaken top 10 while tmv barely excluding him, i feel like im in another universe 1:34:26 also agree with egg gen g would have lost 3-0 if its not for texture
Navi and Heretics winning against all teams from group alpha and then having a single elim game is really a format error.
The worst is that the team that won the match (TH) isn't going to Shanghai.

This is badly needed for top 10 platchat moments
Kurts announcement was that the stream is over
Not an NRG fan but I think their only hope is to tell FNS that they'll give him control of the roster moves and beg him to come back
aint no way he's coming back rn at the very least, he's very much enjoying his time as a streamer, not to mentioned signed as an official costreamer for g2 for quite a bit at least. But I do agree that they really need a roster change, as good as the players may be on paper.
Here again to request an FNS guest appearance for one of those NA segments đ„ș
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
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
@@musculusiv4172single elim to save time
@@musculusiv4172 Giving you the benefit of the doubt (and for anyone else reading this), the issue is that Riot wants a specific (low) number of games for the playoffs and this is way too many games. The goal for Riot (for multiple reasons including scheduling) is to keep the number of games 8 in playoffs. Your bracketing is two double elim brackets, meaning 6*2 12 games. I couldn't figure a way to do even 10 games with 8 teams fairly (even with single elim), 12 might be possible. Basically it's not just about not having it be a 6 team playoffs, but rather doing it under a certain number of games. That's why Sideshow says about adding more teams, it theoretically means the teams play the bottom half from your league, meaning the better team should always win. Plus it reduces the chance of #2 teams facing each other in a single elim bracket. A couple dirty versions of this could be done with 8 matches but at that point might as well have a 4 team playoff.
Of course a double elim bracket would be the best option, but a mixture of the existence of 11 teams this year and Riot's additional issues (be it time or money or something else), that just won't be imlpemented.
@@serenalaurence1492 My bracket would be 11 games not 12 (bc you dont need a final in the group) but I see what you mean.
If there have to be ECACTLY 8 games or less then you're right there's no way around it... But the VCT is already extremely short with very few total games... I dont buy that adding only *3 games* per playoffs would break the league
@@musculusiv4172 Hm fair enough, I missed that detail. It's not about breaking the league, but the extra cost, time and workload added on the players and production team. Everyone agrees that Riot probably needs to spread the year out a bit more, which would make your bracket much more viable, but until then we just have to live with this monstrosity lmao
bren just being the impostor the whole top 10 players only to confess at the end when he got exposed is certainly a top 10 platchat val moments 2024 for me
Nah that ending is insane đ
I am excited for the upcoming DRG and FPX Grand Finals
1:35:55 "yea 100%, different role, more stat, does more calling, literally every element of the game.... better."
my goat sliggy, not messing around with his words. we know who the real no.1 player is. A sick leo is better than almost every other player on this list.
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 havenât seen theirâs yet, but I think their 10 will be similar.
there is no world where kang kang is better than forsaken
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.
Bren threw this whole episode and it was great đđ
All time episode! With insane clip potential
High key if the less stuff isnât true I think u try him on duelist with the viper nerfs and bring in pancade
1:48:08 bren masterclass
Ivâe been interested in Factor âŠthanks Plat Chat
What was the announcement!!!
Why is it not on Spotify yet ?!
PEOPLE ARE SLEEPING ON KING DAVID HES LITERALLY THE BEST PKAYER IN PAPER REX
-PUJAN
nice ending
My list cause nobody cares:
1. Shanks
2. Tarik
3. TenZ
(Lmao gotchu there didnât I).
No hereâs the actual list:
1. T3xture
2. Aspas
3. Cryo
4. Leo
5. F0rsaken
6. Something
7. Jinggg
8. Benjyfishy
9. Valyn
10. Asuna
KURT IS INSANE FOR THAT CLIFFHANGER
"I have a video for it" closes the live
The Wyatt Weekly award is Rainbow6 world championship trophy , a missed opportunity for a joke there
cned and kangkang in top 10 is crazy, especially above f0rsaken
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.
@@alexwyffels9788 Jinggg is not even top 10 if you actually watch the leagues lmao. Jinggg has so much games that he underperforms while davai and forsaken has been consistently their best players on split 1
@@alexwyffels9788 i agree, d4v41 and mindfreak are sooo underrated
i honestly think prx as a team is strong i don't think any of player is higher or lower from each other...i don't think any individual carry that team everyone do they job..
that's why in tokyo without something still top3 in Madrid without jinggg still top3
WHATS THE ANNOUNCEMENT???
Uncle David not in top 10 is crazy. Drop KK from the list and put Uncle in it
Me, a Gen.G fan: Sideshow is correct, yâall 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 heâs not flashy. Heâs such an amazing player.
Josh knows ball with texture on one
22:04
Yes! Justice for Bren!
banger announcement đ
My thoughts on format (I don't really know what I am talking about so I am open to discussion but be nice please :))
The format is not the best I will admit, but I think it is not ENTIRELY RIot's fault. one of FUT, NAVI and TH was never meant to be in Shanghai due to the randomness of groups. Furthermore, if the teams had been in their expected form (feels like the format relied on few consistent teams being on both groups, Alpha had none), I think the results would have been less revolting, but the teams were also mad up and down throughout the season. My issue isn't with anything other than one - that once the stage 1 regular season has ended, I would have liked the playoffs distribution be based off of the matches won combined for both group teams, not per group (two teams from one group could get first seed). I know the issues with that (if there's a good team on the other group but mid teams on this group farmed against weaker opponents to get 1st seed), but atleast it would be based off of hard results. Right now it feels robbery for NAVI to not be going to Shanghai, even tho it is understandable and this will happen often, no matter what the format is (two good teams on same side of bracket, three good teams in same group etc.). Imo Riot needs to introduce some performance based seeding instead of the random seeding, atleast in these elim situations
4:21 unhinged reference from mr sideshow
MiniBoo is the Hammer and Benjy is the Anvil.
Hottake: i like only the people on the show submitting their top 10 rankings. Its much more fun if they have to defend themselves and also more batshit things occur since everyone has a higher weight in their vote
I am currently on the number 2 player in the player rankings and currently you are telling me that both sliggy and sideshow both COMPLETELY FORGOT of the existence of aspas...?
CAUSE WHO ELSE WOULD BE NUMBER 1???
No Alfajer?
Lev throws, G2 chokes, geng got figured out, 100t are one bad day away from being shit. PRX has the best chance to win a tournament, but I think Emea is gonna stole this tournament, especially Fnatic, which I'd hate to see. Heretics are gonna play bonkers, Imo.
now what.
Now I know why brent isnt in the talent roster with that hair
THE PICKEEM ARE INSANE
BY FAR THE FUNNIEST EP THIS YEAR
SAYAPLAYER: LEGALIZE NUCLEAR BOMBS
i know paper rex win allgame
Canât wait for DRG and T1 to win 2-0
Texture no2???????????
Leo is EASILY the best player in Valorant.
sure but not really at all
Totally. He's not as flashy as Aspas, but has been the best player in the world now for over a year when you take everything into account (not just fragging)
EMEA region isn't even top 2
top 10 endings
no david? wow
No intro?
For some reason it's cut off. I suspect it'll fix itself eventually
dang that davai disrespect... not even top15 that man has consistently helping his team and also fragging not even a mentioned đ
hear me out patitek comes in and fills, move fortnite goat benjy fishy to duelist it will be natural
wheres the love for boostio i think cryo is gross but i think boostio makes the team what it is currently
Letâs go prx!!
2:11:49 jinx averted đ€
Bro g2 has a t2 player in their team
Am I the only one who thinks Bren is on something đ đ
Leo is number 1
Is it just me or is this entire episode REALLY quiet. Like not just Bren but the full volume of the recording is so impossible to hear
sliggy I'm not sure if you're cooking or smoking
ez đł
Honestly I have the plan for NRG which is gonna MEGA COOK.
They drop the ENTIRE roster and rebuild with :-
Subroza, Som, Sinatraa, Poolchan and Yoy (or Marved or literally anyone)
i know who could fix yay. potter. she would turn him into demon6

If youre putting leo up there idk why king isnt up there.
âif youâre putting Messi up there idk why youâre not putting Antony up thereâ đ this you rn
@@abhii__4675 lmao you sound so fking dumb rn. If King is antony Leo is rashford.
MARVED FOR BOASTER XD
LFG AMERICAS IS SAVED NO CURSE
Fuck that I back Brens list!
Aspas #1 player, then you unanimously pred GenG to beat Lev lmao
friendly reminder :
YOU CAN'T STOP GOD !
Balla is a 100t hater I swear lmao how can you be a dark horse team after winning your region and beating teams like lev and loud lmao
Davai robbed from another top 10 list
Aspas is not even the best player in North America. And they are so high on Aspas crazy.
@Major 09 ur smokin hard if u think they are "wOrSt tEaM"
Reason why Sideshow moved because someone denoted his house
Called gen g and apac shit and praised eu 0 eu in the finals. Now praising apac and shitting na apac 100% out of finals
they are sleeping so hard on david
Bro Sliggy is the most consistent Americas/NA rider and EMEA doubter, dude hates EMEA
Aspas never loses an aim duel, heâs 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.
EDG PRX grand final would peak
Sliggy blaming others for recency bias for texture when Leo and Fnatic have just showed up in the last few weeks lol while Gen G have been in the finals of every tournament played this year regional or international.
Sliggyâs point was that Leo did show up all year, he just didnât get much help.
@@toastbrot2774 Which is false because Chronicle was fnatic's best player in the Kick off and regular season...Leo was only the best player in the playoffs.
Sideshow way too German politician pilled (not that one)
Not even 1 100Thieves player. Trolls at work.
surely, this episode ages well when America's makes their 6th straight international finals and wins their 3rd straight international tournament
đ
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.
