The Guard in 2023 won a slot for 2024 and 2025 in the franchise. What happens after that? Will they play with the ascension 2025 winners or will they just get kicked out again for another year to play with t3 teams?
As long as they make champs (or place higher than 2G if they both qualify), then they’re in the league again. The worse ascension team will have to defend their spot in Ascension if they make top 8 in league — if they do worse then they’re auto-relegated.
If G2 win Bangkok, they start the season with 8 champs points and would have to absolutely toss every game for the next two splits to miss champs.

G2 surely gets into franchising anyway right?

bro this roster's core stuck together when THEY LOST THEIR FRANCHISING SPOT!!!! you think one year of franchising success is going to change that? this team has been through thick and thin for 3 entire years. if this isn't loyalty, then idk what is. at the end of the day, only the players can decide to leave if the team gets poached.

Except the core decided to stay together through T2 instead of accepting franchised offers and Jawgemo has made it clear he thinks they’re the best team he could play with.
The players clearly care about long term consistency over short term monetary benefits.

they have their success now and actually i dont see this team winning more tournaments just regionals
it is only right for them to leave for money

NioMS [#15]By who?
G2 basically one of the top dog orgs in Valorant
being top dogs doesnt mean they are giving their current roster the bag
i mean they didnt win anything till now
