OpTic Gaming’s lineup presently includes Jacob Whiteaker, who goes by the gamer tag “Yay.” In the Valorant North American area, he is regarded as one of the finest players and has been amongst the top fraggers in 2022.

Yay used to be a Jett main, but after its nerf, he has been using Chamber owing to a superior edge at off positions. Yay was instrumental in OpTic Gaming’s victory in the “VCT 2022: Stage 1 Champions – Reykjavik” tourney. He got the greatest KD ratio of 1.32 and the 2nd greatest Average Combat Score of 252.3. All through the competition, he had 417 kills.


2. Asuna

Asuna Valorant

Peter Mazuryk, the 18-year-old gamer nicknamed “Asuna,” is a 100 Thieves player. He is 100T’s primary fragger, and he frequently teams up alongside Raze and Phoenix. We don’t see much of Phoenix in VCT team combinations, but Asuna is anything from average. He likes his plays to be surprising, so he tries something unusual every time he starts taking it seriously. 

He prefers to be in the midst of the action and plays incredibly aggressive and fiercely unpredictable, hence he is generally the guy that carries the round for 100 Thieves.

1. Tenz

TenZ Valorant

Tyson “TenZ” Ngo is a professional FPS gamer and is absolutely a beast in Valorant competitions. Tenz hails from Canada. He began his Valorant career with Cloud9 Blue, but has now moved on to Sentinels.

His insane response time and surprising actions make rivals feel stupid, regardless of how brilliant their game understanding is. He can also read the team well, making him adaptive instead of a self-centred duelist. TenZ will usually be seen as Jett, Raze, or Reyna.
