Do they seriously deserve 3 spots in Champions?, ik they are trying to grow the region, but 3 slots is a lot yk
(IF EDG GET THE 4TH ILL STFU BTW)
CarnageBTC [#5]whom will u give those slots to? EMEA - 1/2 team region....Americas - top 2 seeds in lowers....Pacific - no competant team (other than prx maybe but we will see)....idk the situation is weird
Is it me or there isn’t really a “dark horse” team no more, it’s crazy, it seems like it ended with Acend for all I could know

Not Acend dude. With Gambit it ended
valulrantefanboy [#2]No, only EDG decent, ASE=2nd team are terrible , 3rd team even worse
aite nvm wrong link here's the last FGC split on China

there's still teams like bilibli who looks promising, but yeah China is still in it's infancy there's definitely potential in the CN scene
valulrantefanboy [#2]No, only EDG decent, ASE=2nd team are terrible , 3rd team even worse
There are some new teams like BLG, TYLOO and WBG.
Funplus Phoenix is not a team with hope. It has the gene of infighting.
Lanced [#11]FUT just own chineese #2seed team i dont think they are a good region but EDG is a good team for sure
the only way for the other teams to catch up is play theese teams and events, look how long it took EDG.

ase aint 2nd lmao bilibili gaming beat them in the second fgc event, and theres also teams like tyloo who are doing pretty good as well

sorry you had gave a wrong example, at the time Life was still a member of EDG.
ASE qualified to Tokyo as FGC Act 1 Champions, but at Act 2, ASE won UBSF but was swept by EDG in LBF. BLG, which added 2 ex-K1 member was the Winner's bracket winner, but was swept by EDG in GF.
Typer [#8]Not Acend dude. With Gambit it ended
was gambit a dark horse? sorry i started following since copenhagen so no idea about that team
CarnageBTC [#15]was gambit a dark horse? sorry i started following since copenhagen so no idea about that team
gambit was the best team in the world and also the most innovative at the time, guy above is just lost, acend was a dark horse never gambit

oh yeah the wrong one I thought that was the 2023 FGC

Gambit was literally known for destroying teams in scrims. They were called scrimbit even b4 masters 1. They were never a dark horse

everyone knew gambit had a dynasty being built, legit since the first iteration of that roster people knew they were a heavy contender, never get how people think gambit went on some accident runs lol

IRL debuff killed gambit 😭😭😭
CanadianLegend [#20]IRL debuff killed gambit 😭😭😭
yeah it killed most of us careers/orgs in valorant
valulrantefanboy [#2]No, only EDG decent, ASE=2nd team are terrible , 3rd team even worse
You have brain damage. They're still in open beta you donkey
smizuu [#6]EDG = DESERVED
1 MORE CHINA TEAM? = MAYBE DESERVED TO SEE THEIR TRUE POTENTIAL
1 MORE? = NOT DESERVED SINCE THEY NOT FRANCHISE ORG AND NOT EVEN S TIER TEAMI MEAN RITO CAN JUST PUT EDG TO APAC AND REMOVE THAT DFM ORG
BUT IN RITO EYES? CHINA = POPULATION , VIEWERSHIP
i mean if u follow chinese scene even a little bit, u will know that there are many good players out there, just that they are scattered across various teams...edg is like a "super team" of china
Art1st [#19]everyone knew gambit had a dynasty being built, legit since the first iteration of that roster people knew they were a heavy contender, never get how people think gambit went on some accident runs lol
They could've been the astralis of valorant. I will never forgive putin for that
valulrantefanboy [#2]No, only EDG decent, ASE=2nd team are terrible , 3rd team even worse
I mean, in less than a year, China as a region was able to produce a really good team in the form of EDG. I wouldn't be surprised if ASE and FPX (as the scene starts to develop to a more advanced level) become world contenders.
I'm Chinese and I agree that 3 slots for China is too many right now, I can tell Riot is trying hard to promote this game in China but it takes time, the average level of Chinese teams are not as competitive at the moment. Riot should give them some time to improve before considering adding more slots, 2 should do for now
CanadianLegend [#29]Zeta run, it’s about to be replicated, this time to the finales. Beautiful
Zeta didn't qualify to Tokyo Masters, but everyone is talking about it. Till now, I still believe it is the most remembered VALORANT esport moment.
justforfun [#31]I believe all ur guys will be surprised about how fast we(teams form China) progress just like how you are surprised by EDG.
Just go and see
probably only edg
Faker4EverGod [#33]probably only edg
maybe you're right. but our league have not established and most our teams have never played offline, they have great potential and they will show the world in the champs
ayayaay [#32]i love edg and china teams but istg this ullyr guy is being cocky after edg beat navi and loud,
like blahblahb pacific fans always hate on us but now they be claiming us blahblah, bro i dont see shit like that, most people here in SEA actually love edg
i dont hate u but thats kinda annoying
I swear pacific has been the only region to not hate that much on EDG (before tokyo)
