so do people from far east Russia count as asians in valorant?
are they counted as an import in emea?
Mortadelo [#3]I don't think Riot can split a country into 2 regions, so yeah technically imports. But being fair still Asian talent since they've been grown playing on the Asian servers/teams

Russian genes are the deciding factor

Russia covers two regions.
yaiima0 [#10]Nice fake flagging, what country tho?
India, also I change flag everyday and most of the peoples knows it

That's not what I meant. ik how continents work. But EMEA ≠ Europe. We have to guide ourselves by how Riot splits regions not the actual geography my friend. Russia is EMEA and it can't be EMEA in one side and Asia on the other side. For example if that was the case is Dimasick not EMEA for example?

Do you think Russians that live on the very far east are playing on Europeans servers with high ping or Asian servers with average ping? I don't think Riot considers all of Russia in the EMEA region.
Dimasick has been living in europe since before valorant came out. Same with Dephh, doesn't make them imports.

Dude it's not about what server you play in. That's just not how it works, it's about what country you reside in, and that is Russia which is an EMEA country as easy as that.
Let me put a different example then. Most part of Turkey is Asian too does that make them not be EMEA? Do you think the Saudi Arabia team who are on the MENA VCL play on European servers? No, but they're EMEA because their country is part of EMEA
EMEA ≠ EU

yes BUT saudi arabia and turkey are from MENA which is part of emea
I dont think riot forces far east russians to play in emea when they get 100+ ping on emea

And So are Turkey and Saudi Arabia is what I'm trying to tell you my friend.
You're not understanding my point. Answer this question, what is the difference between far east Russia and Saudi Arabia that makes Saudi Arabia be EMEA but Far East Russia not?

you stated "I don't think Riot can split a country into 2 regions"
which they could easily do with Russia consider its size and far it stretches. The country has 11 time zones bro.

Bruh yk Middle East is Asia too right? EMEA includes CIS dude
Saudi Arabia is an Asian country which is part of EMEA
Far east Russia is an Asian zone which is part of EMEA

Can easily do but they don't? They consider Russia one region that's just what they decided and how it is

honestly might be conisdering eu servers have a tokyo option probably for far est russians but I find it stupid considering they would have to relocate to play professionally in europe

Russians are imports in Pacific idk how else I can explain it, read my first post again "EMEA player, asian talent"

Show a source for that then.
But they dont consider Russia one region, they are apart of CIS as majority of Russia lives closer to europe then Asia. But nothing shows that east of the Ural mountains are consider apart of EMEA or Asia.

CIS has had 1 VCL that was gonna be part of the EMEA finals. Far East Russians do not have or have had any VCL in Pacific. If they were considered Pacific and not EMEA players. It would actually be very unfair for them if they were Pacific because they would not have any VCL they could actually compete in as regionals

Bro it IS about the server you play in because the question is what Riot considers EMEA.
There's a reason EMEA accounts have access to Tokyo servers

EMEA stands for Europe Middle East and Africa, but to make it clear the major regions it contains are EU, CIS, Turkey and MENA. Russia is part of CIS as simple as that.
It's really not about the servers when it comes to determining where the player is from. Many Latam north players play on NA servers, that doesn't make them NA players. The servers do deserve credit of where the player has grown it's skills tho

My bro just give up. I tried to explain the same thing to them but they won't listen 😭
Mortadelo [#35]Officially EMEA
Unofficially whatever makes you feel more identified
people identify as dogs so i dont think saying that he's european or asian will upset someone lol

I admire your patience
You're explaining the simplest shit ever and these guys are so braindead, that to anyone with a minimum IQ they look like people denying that 4+4 = 8.
Just drop it bro, some people are just retarded.
