sentinelmain377 [#5]george geddes replied stop
and he has access to stuff
so i think we are safe and optic will prob get in franchising
No body know anything right now expect leaks early in September
BBL_Wtcn [#3]I mean their fanbase is considerably low compared to how successful they are even if they don’t make it they will %100 be picked up
Is it really that low? Compared to 100T/SEN/TSM, sure. But compared to C9, XSET, Guard? But they have done a pretty bad job converting their succes to fanbase, how is the best team by far not the most popular in the region
SENzombs [#7]valorant esports watchers so deprived for content while waiting for tournaments
Well considering there are only 3 tournaments a year. But yes people strive for attention in the Valorant community.
Mbappe [#8]Is it really that low? Compared to 100T/SEN/TSM, sure. But compared to C9, XSET, Guard? But they have done a pretty bad job converting their succes to fanbase, how is the best team by far not the most popular in the region
Simple answer, the first three you mentioned has a massive kid and casual following. A bunch of people who don’t know jack but just claim they are fans and bandwagon. A lot like the warriors fanbase. They also don’t have Tenz who for whatever reason is treated like he’s s1mple or compared to at least.
It is funny to think that c9 was the most popular team In NA maybe of all time. In CS they have a massive following and they still do. At IEM Dallas there was c9 support everywhere but you don’t see any of it in Valorant.

lol because most esports fans follow players not orgs. You look at stewie tarik and shroud and all the support is still there.

I said considering how successful they are but yeah you’re right
Also C9 and The Guard are rich as fuck though
Playeready [#10]I think this is about Yay's contract. It ends in Sept. and maybe Optic dont want to resign him because of the price tag.
This I believe is the more authentic story. Franchising isn't out until after champions is done. Given it was a one to one interaction specifically if you look at Chet's responses, could be that

Not entirely true. It might be more common in Valorant than other games. For teams like Team Liquid, faze, astralis, etc. I think people genuinely support the team/org. But you’re not wrong about people supporting certain players. Pretty much anyone who played for c9 cs has a following with a large fan base.
Tarik, shroud, Stewie, n0thing, autimatic, xeppaa, floppy, freakazoid, seangares, list goes on.
It’s like sentinels I guess as well. Anyone who joins sentinels gets an insta following boost.
