hiyo [#2]no lol if champions was 24 teams with full bo3 teams would be dead by the end of the tournament
hot take we don't need 24 teams, max should be 16
i don't want dogshit teams from latam and apac to get 26-0 from NA and EMEA
use swiss format, dogshit teams will be knocked out very quickly by 0-3.
monitar [#3]use swiss format, dogshit teams will be knocked out very quickly by 0-3.
swiss format sucks, too many games, rito will never use it btw
fracra [#6]16 teams and no LB in playoffs
Why? Lower bracket is the best way to represent a consistent skill of a team. Teams that have a bad day but performs consistently well can be given a second chance to prove themselves, and it makes for a potentially great comeback story(the hype story of zeta division would not have happened without a lower bracket)
fracra [#6]16 teams and no LB in playoffs
16 teams with lb in playoffs
also why does sa get 4 slots instead of emea in champs
sa getting 4 slots was also decided before m1 this year so loud's performance wasnt a factor in this decision
totneK_kaT_umkaM [#12]Swiss format with bo1 is suck, and it will never applied to valorant cause valo match isn't good with bo1.
doesn't matter swiss or groups, just dont use 12 teams format.

APAC have quite a few good teams, not prx level, but close, and maybe yes EMEA have a lot of good teams, but not gonna be that far, and surely gonna be a better tournament to involve many teams, and give opportunities to new teams to compete, that way we can see many new strats, or new team that are capable to surprise, it happened already, with kru, zeta, prx, teams from minor region that can go to top4

thats why you get a play in stage so the dogshit teams play each other and only the 2 best advance
monitar [#13]doesn't matter swiss or groups, just dont use 12 teams format.
12 format sucks too.
It's just rito want to save the 16 format for champions.
If they make master 16 format too, nothing feels special about champions
totneK_kaT_umkaM [#17]12 format sucks too.

so make champions 24 teams

that's true I guess, but imo the hype when it comes to the classic no LB playoffs like in csgo majors is different. all teams are coming from group stages and the #1 seed will play the #2. also, it might make teams play to their max potential if there are no lowers.
