Valorant has enjoyed multiple investments from tech brands and other big names in the esports industry despite being relatively new to the landscape. It had successfully hosted tournaments that determined the best players in the world, and some who stood out have been rewarded greatly for their skills. Here are the five highest-paid Valorant players in the world so far:
cNed
Mehmet Yagiz ‘cNed’ Ipek is a Turkish player for Acend, one of the best Valorant teams in the EMEA region. He made his Valorant debut in July 2020 for BBL Esports and has joined two other teams before being acquired by Acend in March 2021.
Punters who are tired of sports bet horse racing and who venture in Bitcoin esports betting would be familiar with cNed’s name and team, as he is one of the best in his region. So far, cNed has an illustrious career with numerous B-tier, A-tier, and S-tier events, with Acend being included in at least the top eight teams. His main agents are Jett and Sage. So far in his career, he has accumulated $105,522.
SicK
Hunter ‘SicK’ Mims is an American player for Sentinels, the highest-earning Valorant team in the world so far. He is a former Counter Strike: Global Offensive player for TSM and Misfits before shifting to Valorant, where he gained more popularity. He joined Sentinels in April 2020 and stayed in that team since.
SicK has become part of the team that propelled Sentinels to global supremacy, topping almost every A-tier and S-tier event the team has entered. His main agents are KAY/O, Raze, and Breach. So far in his career, he has earned $110,650.
dapr
Michael ‘dapr’ Gulino is SicK’s teammate in Sentinels and is also a former CS:GO player. He made his Valorant debut in May 2020 for together we are terrific, an American Valorant team, before joining Sentinels a month later. This move proved favourable to him as he rose to fame alongside the rest of Sentinels by winning multiple VCT events.
Dapr’s main agents are Killjoy, Viper, and Chamber. So far in his career, he has accumulated $110,870.
ShahZaM
Shahzeb ‘ShahZaM’ Khan is the in-game team leader of Sentinels. He is a former CS:GO player just like his teammates SicK and dapr, having played for Cloud9, OpTic, and Complexity Gaming. He made his Valorant debut in April 2020 for Sentinels. He applied his CS:GO knowledge and leadership skills to propel his team to the top.
His leadership and collaboration with the rest of the Sentinels squad has taken him to great heights, just like in his CS:GO days. His main agents are Sova, Chamber, and Breach. So far in his career, he has earned $111,450.
zombs
Jared ‘zombs’ Gitlin is another Sentinels player who also had a great career playing for the team’s Apex Legends division. He also is a former Overwatch player for FaZe Clan. His skills in the other shooting games he played has led him to become highly proficient in Valorant and he rightfully became the highest-paid Valorant player in the world so far.
He made his Valorant debut in April 2020 for Sentinels and prefers using Omen, Astra, or Brimstone. So far in his career, he has accumulated $111,550.
Making money out of playing video games is becoming more popular these days, with the ones on this list having exerted efforts in sharpening their skills in Valorant just enough to be recognised by the gaming world as legitimate champions. Even punters who are tired of sports bet horse racing and who venture in Bitcoin sports betting know what these people are capable of, so they know they get their money’s worth when they see them play.
