Astar [#5]0/8
china hasn't entered the scene yet
also it would be funny to see korean orgs with sea players since sea players right now dominating the scene
I think NA/EU orgs entering the APAC franchise will very much likely than korean orgs
There's already FPX lol
Chinese orgs don't mean they will have Chinese rosters
Hecking_Love_Tenz [#7]They are not even close to T1 orgs lmao
only in APAC
Secret is literally one of the biggest eSports orgs in the world 💀💀💀
Right now, there is zero incentive to think those are the most likely teams.
From your list, the ones I have more confidence in are:
- DRX
- ZETA
- IG
- EDG
DRX and ZETA would be enough for the token representative from their respective region. There are rumors of Chinese orgs like Invictus Gaming and Edward Gaming potentially picking up some players from the HK/TW region to be able to participate in APAC.
Sandbox have been linked to a team for a long time now but they've been silent at all. KT I don't think they have interest at all.
PSG Talon is exclusively for League of Legends. Talon already has a Filipino roster and PSG doesn't have interest at all as well, I think.
Hecking_Love_Tenz [#8]There's already FPX lol
Chinese orgs don't mean they will have Chinese rosters
FPX is rumored to be 70-90% committing to EMEA unless said otherwise.
Hecking_Love_Tenz [#8]There's already FPX lol

FPX has already entered the european scene since before even valorant released. (old heroic csgo team)
The only korean orgs I can see entering international franchise is Gen.G or T1

yea I have no inside news at all so I randomly picked T1 orgs in Asia
Riot will most likely pick 30 orgs from LEC LCS LCK LPL imo
Shashwat_Singh [#14]Bruh its from bodork he’s a reporter
The rumors that me, Godspeed, and BoDork discussed in the video have some merit, even though it is rumors

IG with what roster?
Astar [#13]FPX has already entered the european scene since before even valorant released. (old heroic csgo team)
The only korean orgs I can see entering international franchise is Gen.G or T1
T1 and GenG already have NA rosters
They will try to get NA franchise slots
Hecking_Love_Tenz [#19]T1 and GenG already have NA rosters
They will try to get NA franchise slots
GenG is going back to KR scene.
also NA franchise in general is too competitive if its only 10 slots. Don't be surprised if some well-known orgs buying out APAC rosters just for a spot.

you mean whole APAC rosters for an NA team?
no shot bro
max imports spot is 2
at least 3 of them should be NA residents

no what I meant is NA org buying whole APAC roster. lol money doesnt matter for these NA/EU orgs they can relocate anytime just like Team Secret
Astar [#22]trust me bro
they're not even on LCQ and released their coach sgares
they will eventually knowing reality
you have no idea how even franchising works lol
How well the team is doing doesn't matter bro
Riot only cares about the size of that org and their financial stability
Astar [#23]no what I meant is NA org buying whole APAC roster. lol money doesnt matter for these NA/EU orgs they can relocate anytime just like Team Secret
NA is much bigger market
NA orgs will try their best to earn NA franchise spot
but at least one NA/EU org might try to join APAC franchise
it's possible

then you have no idea what you're talking about. Gen.G getting in a franchise spot in APAC with korean scene is more likely than staying in NA region while competing to the likes of Optic, 100T, EG, NRG, etc. who are rich orgs. Their experiment with NA roster also didnt work quite well.

bruh GenG is literally ranked #8 in the world
Hecking_Love_Tenz [#27]bruh GenG is literally ranked #8 in the world
wtf. how does that even related on getting a franchise spot? see my posts. Their NA valorant team is garbage hence why they will try to get one in KR (APAC) franchise.
how about some comprehension

bro nobody fking cares about the current roster lmao
Riot only cares about the team's financial stability
rosters can be picked up anytime after getting that franchise spot

acting like Gen.G is the richest org in the world.
now try to compare them to the likes of Optic, Faze, NRG, 100T, EG, C9, TSM, LG, SEN, XSET. It's already 10 not to mention it needs 2 slots from SA probably. Even the likes of those orgs above have better result than Gen.G in tournament and also as established as them as an org

you are literally saying PRX should earn APAC franchise spot over EDG/IG because their roster is doing great lmao
Riot gives no fuck about it. I'm not saying GenG will 100% get NA franchise spot but they will at least try to

I'm just saying the team roster 100% will secure the franchise spot even if it means disbanding PRX. I was talking about PRX as a team not an org

yea that's what I mean too? SEN OPTIC LG relatively small org. They don't even have LCS slot
Riot favors LCS orgs imo

LMAO dudes talking about LCS but saying SEN small
Sentinels owned by Kroenke Group (Arsenal FC owner)
they have a dominant Overwatch League team called Los Angeles Gladiators, it used to be an LCS team.
OPTIC is one of the most succesful Call of Duty team in history
LG is also one of the most sucessful esports team (they literally won csgo major)
lmao "small"
LG and OPTIC are OG orgs with rich owner and history compared to the newer orgs like the likes of XSET & GenG (who only just famous from PUBG invitational)
