I know but they have offices in japan too, where there's so much craze for valorant.
JiangLi [#5]Exactly lol . Why tf is it there of all places . Like they a billion dollar company just invest somewhere atleast with fans . Dude i swear SG gets more crowd than KR lol . If RIOT had made it in SG it would've got way more fans . best is Japan ofc
They hold it literally anywhere else in asia, it will draw more crowd than kr

PerfectCraft [#9]KR has a decent valorant fanbase but most are just casual gamers, check tracker-gg there are at least 240K+ people with a rank this act alone in KR

Riot was just really paranoid about Covid, no other organizer (or at least major esport organizar) I know kept it crowdless for as long as Val was
