H3ENnZ [#7]Does Gambit Esports still exist or nah
liquidated, they are owned by MTS who are sanctioned
VP - still dodgy, linked and partially invested by Winline (gamba)
Spirit - linked to Betboom, focused on improving CS/DOTA system
optic - focused on CoD no?
faze - mb
nip - maybe
col - owner publically said t2 val is unviable
ence - focused on getting as much of an income as possible, a tier 2 system with a 1 year contract is a no-go
Aayan [#3]man riot needs to make t2 viable, so many good/decent orgs that could support the scene
how tho? :D

vp invested by winline and winline invested by putin?
Anzaldinho [#14]vp invested by winline and winline invested by putin?
naaah, VP were owned by Esforce holding which went to SOGAZ (insurance company by a russian state)
Psquare [#20]Relegation promotion system just like football :D
but then it is not franchising and that goes against ''stability''
Nef0r0 [#21]but then it is not franchising and that goes against ''stability''
I prefer the relegation cause it provides base for more than 12 teams. As of now only the 12 teams seem to get the backing from riot

Optic said that t2 valorant was too expensive

if you add relegation 60% of the orgs in franchising will seriously think about staying in valorant

VP pretty much are the same team owned by the same company just with a fictional holder of the team. Like they ARE NOT worth 1.5 million
KyLZi [#39]new Faze is better but I understand
new faze is arguably worse, got rid of a bunch of members that actually did content and earned faze money for a bunch of people who havent made content in years, became annoying as shit, run crypto scams (some of them, not all of them), continue to lose money every year etc.
from bad to bad in my eyes, keep them away from valorant

the tier 1 orgs do not prefer it and they invest the most into valorant
cohnr [#41]new faze is arguably worse, got rid of a bunch of members that actually did content and earned faze money for a bunch of people who havent made content in years, became annoying as shit, run crypto scams (some of them, not all of them), continue to lose money every year etc.

I dont think anyone who was running the crypto scams is still around. losing money is esports and annoying I agree with
GambleNats [#42]the tier 1 orgs do not prefer it and they invest the most into valorant
Yeah its one or the other, either the stability you say without viable t2 or viable t2 without stability to orgs
