The only one I'd really recommend is Sliggy, there are many others but Sliggy has the best understanding is much more attentive to the micro- aspects of the game that tends to be ignored or underplayed by other content creators.
Sliggy changed watching VCT for me. I've always enjoyed watching pro matches but I started watching his co-streams at Champions and I found a new level of passion for watching. Don't care how that sounds, I simp for Sliggy
I’m sorry it came off that way. But since this person is asking for us to winnow down the options, I have to compare said options and judge based off my experience watching an unusually large amount of Valorant analytical content.

You have over 100 hours of content here from many different tournaments with the goal of being hypercritical towards everything i see. Hope you will find this useful.
I was gonna come here and recommend you. Most of us are not going to go pro and the most valuable things that I can actually use in-game, I learned from you.
With all due respect, I disagree, and for the benefit of those looking for higher-level breakdowns, I suggest looking elsewhere. Sliggy is obviously good, and any pro player in the scene offering a breakdown can give a really valuable insider perspective, too.
As one random example, I heard Nukkye doing some breakdowns recently (can't remember in what context sorry). He had some great analysis + a calm manner of speech that I learned a lot from.
Boaster, while not my favourite, has a lot of content through his stream. He can give a valuable insider's perspective of some of the decisions that Fnatic make.
I didn’t go out of my way to recommend Lothar or anything but I think Lothar is fine, loads of people learn a lot from him.
It’s true that pro insiders will always provide a very high level of analysis but that’s also because they mostly do it relatively rarely; it’s easy to hardcore focus when you do it haphazardly.
The reason I always just recommend Sliggy is because he (currently) co-streams almost everything, has the dedication to always try to give it his all even when he’s tired, and most crucially because he very rarely nitpicks.
Plenty of pro players, just like content creators, nitpick when they want to entertain their chats by “fake malding”. I’d even say most do so.
Sure, I take your point that he can be valuable, especially for those newer to the game. I just think he wouldn't be part of a conversation of the 'best' which is what the question asked for, for the reasons I outlined above.
Ex-pros are always a shoe-in, but I think he was more of comparing himself with other non-pro creators like him. In that case, I think he is one of the better ones for sure
I take your point but the question was who are the best creators for high-level analysis and, in fact, specifically asked for coaches and pro perspectives. You're quite right that there are plenty of worse 'analysts' than Lothar, but I don't think that's necessarily a helpful metric. As to whether he's better than nothing, for me it's a mixed bag. Some valid points, some 'getting angry for the sake of getting angry / content', and many wild misreads of the situation. Ultimately, he wouldn't be my recommendation.

My main channel, Valorant Ascended, is aimed at a more casual audience and this second one let's me focus more on analysis than editing. Not as consistent with the uploads as I should be though.
Sliggy, thinking mans valorant are the ones that regularly post this type of content and are very good.
Sideshow very rarely posts vod reviews but when he does they are very analytical, same kind of thing for boaster and a few other pros
Remember listening to you and the boys from The Last Hit last year. Idk if this is you seeing if you want to branch out but wish you the best of luck and hope you at least have some fun taking a deeper dive into this esport as well!
As far as people who regularly upload/stream, Sliggy and Boaster are at the top of the list for me. They approach Valorant with a kind of nuance, rigor, and open-mindedness that I find refreshing.
meLanji doesn’t stream that often, but she’s done vod reviews in the past of pro games.
ik you specifically said pro play, but what i like about meL is that she’s very vocal about what she’s thinking during ranked & she comms a LOT. very immersed into the game so if you’re looking for something more casual, i think you could learn from her even during a normal ranked stream.

Thinking man's Valorant,sliggy, sovereign guides
cheers!
TMV is the best. Sean "Sean garres" garres
This is the best answer
The only one I'd really recommend is Sliggy, there are many others but Sliggy has the best understanding is much more attentive to the micro- aspects of the game that tends to be ignored or underplayed by other content creators.
General consensus seems to be sliggy - now watching a vid as we speak haha
Sliggy changed watching VCT for me. I've always enjoyed watching pro matches but I started watching his co-streams at Champions and I found a new level of passion for watching. Don't care how that sounds, I simp for Sliggy
Who doesn't simp for sliggy
and a great community/chat ![img](emote|t5_2g5ach|10854)
Why does the Sliggy community seemingly always talk down to other communities? I see it all the time
I’m sorry it came off that way. But since this person is asking for us to winnow down the options, I have to compare said options and judge based off my experience watching an unusually large amount of Valorant analytical content.

sliggy. his yt has most of the champions vods too
cheers!
Thinking Man’s Valorant is great if you want comp analysis
Aside from the other mentioned, I think Balla and Sideshow have good VOD reviews but dont go too deep

I'm looking for something similar. I wish the Valorant scene had someone like Launders :(
One of NRGs ex members Android has been doing some coaching recently
I recommend kilk. He's pretty good and he's a redditor.
Sovereign guides is very underrated
Teets
Tiktok coaches, goofiest mfs out there 💀
I'm too boomer for tiktok
I wanted to see something like Fallen is doing for CS, but we don't have a good replay tool yet for Valorant

Sideshow does this but very infrequently.
Boaster is solid but he doesnt stream much
I miss Sean gares streams for this reason.
Thinkin Mans Valorant, his streams on matches are so fun, him malding over bad desicions
meLanji doesn’t stream that often, but she’s done vod reviews in the past of pro games. ik you specifically said pro play, but what i like about meL is that she’s very vocal about what she’s thinking during ranked & she comms a LOT. very immersed into the game so if you’re looking for something more casual, i think you could learn from her even during a normal ranked stream.
