minte [#2]where is north latam rep
he wasn't so sure about the second latam team, he likely doesn't have many latam sources
Mapusaurus [#3]he wasn't so sure about the second latam team, he likely doesn't have many latam sources
yeah I'm not sure about leviatan..
nutab1e [#4]yeah I'm not sure about leviatan..
my guess is inf but maybe g2 try to appeal to the Spanish speaking fanbase and sign a latam roster
nutab1e [#4]yeah I'm not sure about leviatan..
Isn’t the ORG smaller or am I mistaken? If anything this team would get picked up in a heartbeat
KRÜ only seems like a good organization long term for LATAM unfortunately. Heard some shady stuff about orgs like Leviatan, SixKarma and Fusion so honestly think Riot wouldn't take a chance on them but we'll see.
I also heard one American org was interested in investing into LATAM which makes that quite more likely.

possible they applied for franchising in NA and EU

infinity seem reliable but have negative clout
Mapusaurus [#5]my guess is inf but maybe g2 try to appeal to the Spanish speaking fanbase and sign a latam roster
No
Mapusaurus [#11]infinity seem reliable but have negative clout
yeah I would say they definitely have a chance, although I haven't heard of them even applying in for partnerships so we'll see
minte [#2]where is north latam rep
LEV fanbase it's from everywhere, they also have a north latam women's team. I know it's not the same but what's the point of giving it to a north LATAM org if they are just gonna sign Leviatans players
BoDork [#13]yeah I would say they definitely have a chance, although I haven't heard of them even applying in for partnerships so we'll see
oh there goes my las guess, idk who else could slot in there
Mapusaurus [#9]C9
Sen
100t
TSM are 99% in
I hope tsm resist the urge to blow up the roster they have right now :/

what about 85 thieves

Pretty sure Lembo has confirmed they have, apparently their finances weren't as good as they seemed from the outside, 6k has taken a bit of advantage in that regard
Mapusaurus [#15]oh there goes my las guess, idk who else could slot in there
I can definitely see a North America org looking at LAS if it gets them into the league
blazennn [#7]Isn’t the ORG smaller or am I mistaken? If anything this team would get picked up in a heartbeat
Yes, Lev as an org it's smaller, but they have created a huge valorant fanbase just as big as KRU's atp, and they have the money so it doesn't really matter
Mortadelo [#18]Pretty sure Lembo has confirmed they have, apparently their finances weren't as good as they seemed from the outside, 6k has taken a bit of advantage in that regard
^^^
6K is also not the best organization I heard so honestly seems like either a NA org invests into LATAM or Riot gives a third spot for Brazil
Perma [#20]SEN has to rebuild their roster around sick, TSM as well
i dont think both teams can rebuild around a single player tbh
BoDork [#23]^^^

Agree, LAN orgs have very little chance, but why wouldn't LEV have a big chance?

The organization is linked to some shady stuff apparently
BoDork [#27]The organization is linked to some shady stuff apparently
Really? haven't heard of that, what type of shady are we talking? Unwanted sponsors? Actual illegal stuff?
Mortadelo [#29]Really? haven't heard of that, what type of shady are we talking? Unwanted sponsors? Actual illegal stuff?
Do not know the full extend of it. But something about a sponsor/investor which had ties to some illegal stuff in Argentina.

Interesting, we'll see Ig, kinda sucks for LATAM, they really deserve 2 spots
Mortadelo [#31]Interesting, we'll see Ig, kinda sucks for LATAM, they really deserve 2 spots
Agreed, hope to see some LATAM representation other than Kru
BoDork [#32]Agreed, hope to see some LATAM representation other than Kru
Thanks for the info my friend
Skyss [#34]TSM and Guard over NRG and Faze?
tsm is almost certain according to Geddes, guard is in the gauntlet with alot of other teams
nutab1e [#16]I hope tsm resist the urge to blow up the roster they have right now :/
TSM Rossy seriously? Come on bro TSM has to rebuild
nutab1e [#16]I hope tsm resist the urge to blow up the roster they have right now :/
Sen definitely wants to dominate the scene.. hopefully they build a team with the same synergy as before instead of looping stars in
Zapkhiel [#43]I'm sure leviatan won't be able to get in because riot will probably have to give lan a spot by force
In case latam gets 2 spots obviously, although I honestly think kru is the only org with the caliber to get in
Skyss [#34]TSM and Guard over NRG and Faze?
TSM are 100% in. The Guard and NRG seem to be competing for the last spot and Faze seem unlikely because the org is a bit sketchy.
Mapusaurus [#24]i dont think both teams can rebuild around a single player tbh
TSM might do it anyway because of underwhelming results with current roster but they'll want to hold onto subroza
Zapkhiel [#43]I'm sure leviatan won't be able to get in because riot will probably have to give lan a spot by force
Not really since LAN orgs are not very strong, apparently Infinity's financial situation is not as clean as it seems. And they don't really "have to do anything". they have a lot of freedom tbh
My hot take is:
(6 NA teams) C9, Optic, TSM, 100T, SEN, FAZE
(2 BR teams) NIP, LOUD
(2 LATAM teams) KRU, INFINITY
I don´t think they'll choose two teams from LAS unless LEV goes to Mexico or some other country from LAN
I doubt FAZE could make it because of the finances, but idk
*Riot won't give less than 6 teams to NA until they understand Valorant is achieving that all regions have real contenders and potential
