Can anyone explain me what south Asian valorant lacks?
16 year old ranked grinders from EU or NA have better understanding of fundamentals than top south asian teams whose players have >10years of experience in esports. Also every South asian team needs a mental coach, they crumble under pressure. SA can't win unless they get a mental coach and import a good coach or IGL from EU or top of APAC
I think it's that the largest global enjoyer of Valorant, the NA viewers, are kinda gatekept from watching APAC due to it being at our like 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM for the first game (personally it's my 9:00 PM). That leads into a lack of recognizable names and orgs since we haven't been able to get into as much as EMEA. Timing stops a large viewer base from gaining an emotional entry outside of getting in through Paper Rex and Xerxia. It's not a game that lacks, but is different. It isn't the big dick aim duels of NA. It isn't the no movement until 20 seconds left of EMEA. It's the set-look aggression and funneling of APAC.
Tl ; Dr - NA doesn't want to stay up real late to watch teams that they don't know, so they don't learn the game and clown it.
like it's 3 am for me, I got into APAC watching (and missing a lot of) Paper Rex games.
