Which team has improved the most?

The 2024-2025 VCT EMEA roster changes have set the stage for what promises to be an electrifying season. Teams are reworking their rosters, and with fresh talent in the mix, the competition is bound to be fiercer than ever. Some teams, like Fnatic and Vitality, have stuck with their core but added new pieces that could take them to the next level, while others have reshuffled entirely.

The unpredictable nature of this offseason means anything can happen. While some teams are making calculated moves to shore up weaknesses, others are betting on bold new signings to disrupt the existing order. The chemistry between newcomers and veterans will be key, and it remains to be seen which squads can achieve the cohesion required for a successful season.

As we head into the new year, every team will need to prove their worth. Can the veterans maintain their dominance, or will the fresh blood redefine the competition? The 2024-2025 season is sure to offer plenty of surprises, and the race for supremacy in EMEA will be one to watch.

VALORANT does not offer crossplay between PC and console. This means that PC players can only match and play against other PC players, and console players (PS5 and Xbox) players can only match and play against other console players. While there is no crossplay in VALORANT, the game does support cross progression, which means that your account, skins, and any other form of progress carry from one platform to the other (from PC to console, and vice versa).
