Can someone explain what is this franchising scene????
I'm kinda lost....😶😶
yes. but the system is a bit different with the one in LOL or valorant. in CS, ESL and are the authority of the franchise system, not valve. those who joined the franchise will got invited to their main events such as ESL Pro League, IEM etc. and the team that didn't joined the franchise still managed to play the event through open qualify. so their franchise system didn't kill the less rich orgs or lower tier scene. i think Blast also have their own franchise tournament, and the system is similiar if im not mistaken.
