They need to fix the fact that teams can be eliminated from everything this early. I understand they need to reward consistency and the points slot should be kept, but qualifying the top 2 instead of 3 at playoffs and have a LCQ would have been a much better format. This format doesn’t allow teams to improve

Dankmemes [#2]too many game
(this was a joke btw i swear)
more than 1 game a week and valorant players lose their minds
chrlxz [#3]more than 1 game a week and valorant players lose their minds
send them back to the mines i say
AstroGalaxy [#4]i agree we should have LCQ
Its fun to watch imo
like does anyone rem SEN vs 100T LCQ game from 2022? and FNS watched it on stream?
good times
it was 2023
Lilxcr [#6]why top 2 qualifying in playoffs instead of top 3?
Yeah, and the 3rd spot goes to LCQ. I think it’s fair
Mortadelo [#12]Yeah, and the 3rd spot goes to LCQ. I think it’s fair
Does champs still get 16 teams?
Shawn23 [#8]having no LCQ and using champs points gives teams a reason to actually try harder in the regular season and shows every single match matters. pointless to even try in the regular season if you can go 0-10 and still have a shot at champs lol.
champion points > LCQ
As I clearly said, I’m proposing both.
And sure that philosophy is cool and all but this format basically means if you have 1 bad month of April in the first split you’re basically done for the entire year
Lilxcr [#13]Does champs still get 16 teams?
Yeah I’m just saying instead of 3 playoff 1 Points, do 2 Playoffs 1 Points 1 LCQ
Mortadelo [#15]Yeah I’m just saying instead of 3 playoff 1 Points, do 2 Playoffs 1 Points 1 LCQ
ohhhhhhh okay thanks man

not entirely true. sen is only ahead by so much because they got 3 from kick off and 3 from winning madrid,
it be very close if they didn't win madrid with Sen, Lev and 100T all at 9 and G2 @ 8 and Kru @ 6. its keeping champs competitive and not letting some team make a linsanity run @ LCQ and then making one team just get curbstomped by the rest.
Noodle [#21]LCQ was in July last year so teams aren’t really being eliminated any earlier than before, maybe just by a couple weeks. The bigger issue is still the fact that champs is in August, but Leo said it will be in October for 2025 so that should make the schedule better.
MIBR and KOI have been eliminated basically after 5 games
Baketssu [#20]Para que? si luego pasan cosas como kru el año pasado, donde por una buena semana fueron a dar pena en champs
Al revés, lo digo precisamente para que pasen cosas como las de KRU.
Kru mereció más ir al mundial que todos los otros que hubieran dado mucha más pena aún
Personally as a viewer LCQ is super fun, but overall I think it is a bad format. the Idea of a team barely missing playoffs and then MIBR having a crazy LCQ and making Champs sucks, you should have to be at least consistently decent all year to have a chance at making champs.
I think the Valorant season is wayyyyyyyy too short though, crazy we are almost already at the final tournament of the year, and the off season being 6 months long is so dreadful, I personally don't know how to fix it but I think something needs to change. obviously most likely Riot just doesn't want to spend more money on a longer season.

de los ultimos 3 mundiales solo 1 equipo clasificado por el lcq paso de la fase de grupos
El LCQ solo es un espacio para enviar equipos a dar pena. si se llegara a hacer un lcq lo unico factible que veo es un lcq entre los tops 5 y 6 de cada region con solo 2 clasificados
pero el sistema actual de puntos es perfecto tal como esta

Claro porque son el seed 4, que esperas cuantos seed 3 lo hacen bien tambien? Según esa lógica vamos a enviar 2 equipos por region y acabamos antes
KyLZi [#31]I was about to disagree with you and say all the teams that have already been eliminated aren't good enough anyways but with how fast valorant changes I'm not sure if that's correct. Fur could be crazy good. EG made it to Japan in a similar fashion last year.
KRU was clearly Americas top 4 best team come champions time and wouldn't have made it otherwise
Mortadelo [#30]Claro porque son el seed 4, que esperas cuantos seed 3 lo hacen bien tambien? Según esa lógica vamos a enviar 2 equipos por region y acabamos antes
me gusta mas eso de hecho pero estoy firme con la idea de no regresar al lcq y seguir con el sistema de clasificacion por puntos

Una cosa no substituye a la otra, son compatibles

Don't lose 5 games in a row then, I don't think that is unfair. You just aren't meant to make Champs this year then.

Really, so you field a team to compete 1 out of 12 months and be done?
Mortadelo [#36]Really, so you field a team to compete 1 out of 12 months and be done?
If they are that bad yes, you made horrible off season adjustments or and you shouldn't make champs,
as I said in my post below though the Valorant season is just wayyy too short so I understand why it sucks for some teams. maybe next years format with 12 teams will be better. Longer season and maybe more games? idk
AstroGalaxy [#10]oh im talking about 2022
that match was better
the fracture in that series was fkn nuts, i still remember that unreal derrek 3k in OT
