how long is val lasting

i dont think its gonna live longer than 2 years if the league is gonna be this dominant. fnatic, loud and drx.

They started Franchise wayyyy too early

dead by summer when cs2 releases, downvotes prove its true

loud will die soon1 NAVI will win soon. DRX will die soon

Overwatch still put 100k viewers

Dont worry

until they give China half the VCT spots or make it impossible for teams to play internationally

Probably when they start to wipe out the orignal players from these rosters.

In 5 years I doubt we'll know any of the kids playing in NA t1

nah there will be some shady shit by riot and the orgs you just mentioned. riot will pay each top league team around 50M to play like shit and let new teams from each league emerge so fnatic loud and drx dont farm their leagues for the rest of history. trust me, in the next 5 years there will be a sting operation done by the fbi and find the riot games is doing shady shit with these dominating teams.

they definitely need a mid season transfer or one after every split. the way that some players are able to stay this whole year is just too stagnant.
riot also needs to connect tier 1 and tier 2 more, for example letting the winner of ascension play in lcq. having the same teams and same players is dull

Some orgs shouldn't be there tbh. There are orgs that have much better structure an have tradition in fps games (Like NIP in EMEA, G2 [ok i understand why they aren't on franchise, but it would be great to have them in EMEA again], Astralis, Faze [i don't know why they are in VCT NA and not in Franchise]

why would people stay playing t1 cs for almost a decade but not play pro valorant in 5 years? genuine question i want to know the difference between the two in your head

we're barely through half of the first franchised year what are you talking about

china will save valulrant

this is the exact reason that there should be a proper relegation system in tier 1 rather than just growing each league

i think people will keep playing. but the esports scene is HORRENDOUS and likely won’t improve. tier 2 rejects, tier 2 casters, impossible to observe, high roster turnover, only like 4 major tournaments a year, etc.

ehhh i disagree, it wasnt a bad time to do it, 2 years into the game and its booming, but then i feel like they shouldnt have done it period, the format they had before was fine and people were making money and there was actually competition now half of each league is just getting there ass busted while the other half is dogging there shit, maybe year 2 will be better

half these people can't cast or interview for shit im ngl. panpoc and brenshow hard carrying. everyone else sucks so bad
val new game growing new talent tho. lettem cook

there will be a lot of new players, that werent cs pros, thatll come in and help other teams take over. C9 already showing that these new players can bring something and help win games

it ruined itself by going franchise. What a dumb move

and a good percent of those players will prolly never be able to play at the biggest stage the game has to offer xD

if you dont think there will be new players thatll come in and boost teams like SEN or 100T or FURIA over the edge youre dumb as fuck.

Yeah the competition is what makes me not like that they established franchising so early because they didn't allow for the talent pool to grow and better teams to be made

franchising gatekeeps a good percent of new talent influx by nature brotha calm your tits i wasn't agitating u

Not long with this boring ass regular seasons

DRX has always been that dominant, Loud can be beaten, FNC can be beaten by Loud, Navi, Drx, possibly C9. I disagree with you. As long as people watch which they do it will keep going.

Im guessing your on about valo esports cos the game itself aint going anywhere.
