Masters 1 - Toronto/ NYC or any other eastern NA city would be great.

Masters 2 - Cape Town South Africa or Sydney Australia. We have never had a tournament in either Africa or Oceania.

Champions - Paris, London, or Geneva would be great for time zones.

I'm always confused with these country/city suggestion, like yeah they might be good time zone and fan wise, but the venue is the most important. So if you can kindly suggest the plausible venue, both beautiful and large enough for 50k+ attending spectators, that would be nice

I imagine most big cities have a big enough venue to host a masters. Masters tokyo venue was 3K for groups and 9K for finals and the stadium didn't look packed.

I’d love if they tried it but more likely then not we’d be lucky to get an off season event

Yeah IEM Sydney always looks insane in cs, crowd and vibes 10/10. Unlucky you guys don’t have that many teams but flyquest look decent.

Really think that NYC could be Champs as well as a Masters. Hope to get some EST representation we've been suffering out here with these last 2 internationals D:

the only city that i've listed that would struggle with a large enough venue would be cape town, the only venue that i have found so far only holds up to 7k. i haven't fully looked into Geneva but all the listed cities are bound to have at least one indoor venue that can hold up to 15-20k people. Champs 2023 in LA had 11k people attend the KIA forum.

WAY BETTER SUGGESTIONS:

Masters 1: Buenos Aires/Mexico

Pros: neutral crowd B)

Masters 2: Saudi Arabia/Morocco (Middle East and Africa should get the spotlight this time, even if they don't have any T1 teams)

Pros: passionate crowd (will cheer for whoever is playing some really entertaining Valorant)

Champions: Rome/Paris

Pros: GMT +2 > GMT +0 and GMT +1
