Duelist and Sniper
The undeniable choice for the Duelist and Sniper role is the star of the tournament, Zheng “ZmjjKK” Yongkang. He set two records in the grand final, racking up 111 kills in a single series and achieving an average ACS of 309. On average, he secured 18.7 kills per map, with a KD ratio of 1.19 and a KDA of 1.48.
Sentinel
To ensure that opponents find it difficult to breach our Dream Team's positions, we've selected Cho "Flashback" Min-hyuk for the Anchor role. His tournament KDA of 1.5 highlights his significant contribution to his team’s victories. With such an anchor, opponents will struggle to capture positions without suffering heavy losses.
Initiator
No one plays the Initiator role better than Enes "RieNs" Ecirli. His gameplay throughout the tournament was nothing short of spectacular. RieNs, alongside Team Heretics, finished second in the tournament, largely due to his efforts. He skillfully initiated fights with his agents' abilities, often leading his team to success.
Controller
Zhang "Smoggy" Zhao’s contribution to EDward Gaming’s victory at Valorant Champions 2024 might have been overshadowed by the tournament’s star, Zheng “ZmjjKK” Yongkang. However, his top-tier performance as a Controller was a key factor in the Chinese team’s success. His average ACS of 213 is impressive among other players, and his KDA of 1.79 reflects his impact.
Clutcher
If our Dream Team faces any challenges, Kim “MaKo” Myeong-kwan, the king of clutches at Valorant Champions 2024, will turn things around. He delivered one of the tournament’s most memorable moments by winning a 1v4 round against Team Heretics. His overall clutch percentage stands at 17.8%.
Looking Ahead
Valorant Champions 2024 marks the end of this year’s competitive season for all teams. Ahead lies a period of off-season tournaments, rest, and intense preparation for the new and even tougher 2025 season. We can expect two Masters events, with the season finale once again culminating in Valorant Champions. Whether EDward Gaming can defend their title next year remains to be seen. Bo3.gg will keep you updated on all upcoming events, providing comprehensive coverage of the Valorant world.
