Showmatch Ideas

While the show matches are fun, I feel like recently they've all been people I've never heard of. Here are some ideas for new types of showmatches that I think would be fun.

IGL Battle - The premise of this would be to pull 8 members of the audience and have a pro player IGL for each team. I feel like this would be really fun and show the real gap between pros and the regular pros.

1 v 1 - A small bracket that would let pros have a 1v1 tournament. The matches would be short to fit everything, first to 5 kills and 7 for the finals.

Unlimited Abilities - Have 2 teams of random pros/celebs play with unlimited abilities.

Handicap Match - 2-3 pros vs 5 regular players from the crowd.

These are just a few examples but I feel like the showmatches would be more fun if they got the community involved.

unrelated but we need a 1v1 or 2v2 mode officially, like it doesn't have to be huge just like escalation or replication or whatever

Those are all good ideas but I think they should just bring in actual players for the showmatches

They should make a Lebron Impersonator 1v1 against a Michael Jordan Impersonator

that'd be fun tbh, like a wingman mode for Valorant

none of these Ideas include CanadaMan so I will not be upfragging your post. Good day sir

I mean its fine if they can get celebrities with actual status, but I'd rather have pros if they're just going to be pulling in D listers.

I bet 70% of viewers do not give a fuck about these show matches, you can just keep it after the finals. It'd be so much better since a lot of people would be watching these games at night and delaying it would just lose you viewers.

That's my entire point. 70% of them don't give af because they're terrible in their current state.

I thought showmatches are a thing to make casual fans watch vct like you probably don't know most people who play in them but it makes their fans watch the stream

i like your way of thinking, personally the first is my favorite. fns vs saadhak is back.
