Best Valorant Players: Key Takeaways

  • We ranked these players based on how well they play their roles and their individual achievements.
  • The region or team of each player doesn’t matter.
  • We also took into consideration each player’s role and how good they are at it compared to other pros.

In the world of professional Valorant, having a team that works like a singular unit is key to winning. Valorant requires the utmost discipline, teamwork, and strategies, to make things work. It also requires each player to know their roles and do them correctly on a high level.

Comparing different players with different roles is very hard to do, especially since some aren’t going to get as much kills as others. However, we did our best today to compile 10 of the best Valorant players in the world. Feel free to disagree with any of our picks below.

1 FNC Chronicle

First up, we have Chronicle. Chronicle has had a ton of success throughout his Valorant career. He’s a very flexible player that can play pretty much anything you put him on. It was a tough decision to put him first, but it’s hard to argue against the only Valorant player to win three different VCT international events.

2 FNC Derke

A close second is Chronicle’s teammate, Derke. Derke has insanely good mechanics matched with a crispy smooth aim. He primarily plays Duelists for Fnatic and has been with the team since the beginning. He’s now part of the only team with back-to-back VCT event wins, and it only goes up from here.

3 EG Demon1

Demon1 is just an insanely gifted player. He primarily plays the Operator for Evil Geniuses, and the things he does with it are just mind-blowing. There’s definitely a case to be made that he might be the best Op player in Valorant right now.

4 FNC Boaster

Up next, we have another Fnatic player; this time, it’s their IGL, Boaster. Boaster is hands down the best Valorant player IGL in the world. The tactics, calls, and strategies that he makes are just insane. He’s a huge part of why FNC is so unstoppable and can back his brains with great aim.

5 LOUD aspas

LOUD’s own aspas can make a case for being the best Valorant player who plays Duelists. LOUD hasn’t been doing well recently, but aspas is definitely trying his best to carry that team.

6 PRX d4va1

PRX d4v41 probably isn’t a name you expected to see in the best Valorant players list, especially with other huge names in the same roster. However, d4v41 plays a huge role onPRX. He’s practically the glue player, and most of their strats won’t work without him. This is why we think he deserves this spot on our list.

7 NRG s0m
