Which teams are not gonna survive the partnership re-evaluation, in your opinion?
Are PRX safe?
Frogger0_0 [#4]although prx have a lot of money i personally think prx is shady but i might be wrong
teams like secret and zeta are not surviving it
either koi or giantx is getting cut
c9/eg/100t/nrg
tyloo
jdg
zeta is def surviving, pacific would need atleast 1 japanese representatives in the league, zeta over dfm is the easy choice
PP12123213123 [#10]ts(not even pinoy team)
ge(minor region)
dfm(smaller team/fanbase than zeta)
drx(one of korean could be cut, drx is smallest among korean team)
rrq(underperform)
I don't see a world where DRX would get cut bro what

prx probs has the least money out of the whole pacific
SleepingSnorlax [#9]I think I would like to get boom instead of RRQ for Indo I really like them
Isn’t rrq more popular
ButterflyEffect23 [#11]I don't see a world where DRX would get cut bro what
higher chance than geng or t1
Notbaka [#14]Isn’t rrq more popular
It is but I think Boom tries their best to support the scene even though RRQ is one of the Rich ones is Sea

Tbf I think even if it's not GE, there will be atleast one South Asian org. With OG leaving valorant, I don't know who will be a better option than GE. That being said, if they don't make playoffs next two years in row, they are getting cut.
ButterflyEffect23 [#11]I don't see a world where DRX would get cut bro what
if they need to remove one kr team it would be awkward to kick a team with a masters title on them
vlkwgn [#7]either secret or nobody everyone else is fine
some of you guys act like riot is going to axe every team that isn't top tier
ButterflyEffect23 [#11]I don't see a world where DRX would get cut bro what
In terms of profitability they will keep Geng and T1 more compared to drx
Denjisideals [#18]Tbf I think even if it's not GE, there will be atleast one South Asian org. With OG leaving valorant, I don't know who will be a better option than GE. That being said, if they don't make playoffs next two years in row, they are getting cut.
so which region do you think will get cut? 1 korean 1 japanese + (TH/MYSG/ID/PH/SA)
zephyrara [#13]prx probs has the least money out of the whole pacific
the owner is a billionaire
but i am very doubtful of how he made it
PP12123213123 [#22]so which region do you think will get cut? 1 korean 1 japanese + (TH/MYSG/ID/PH/SA)
I honestly don't know man. I don't think any of the Korean teams deserve to get cut tbf. If it's 8 team partnership probably 3 KR + 1 JP + 3 SEA + 1 SA or 2 KR + 1 JP + 4 SEA + 1 SA
PP12123213123 [#22]so which region do you think will get cut? 1 korean 1 japanese + (TH/MYSG/ID/PH/SA)
Prx getting dropped have more chances since they are a small org who only runs based on fandom even if they are maintaining top of the table
jazzb [#25]one of the korean team should go right?
well, T1 are safe
If one of them has to go it's between DRX/GEN.G
DRX has the history, was in the scene since the start, etc
GEN.G are a bigger org and they have a recent masters title
idk. maybe they can keep all three?
SleepingSnorlax [#28]Prx getting dropped have more chances since they are a small org who only runs based on fandom even if they are maintaining top of the table
Pretty sure they are not dropping PRX
They bring in the big number
You will need that in the long term
Infact, as much as I dislike PRX, them being shit is actually bad for Pacific
ButterflyEffect23 [#29]well, T1 are safe
If one of them has to go it's between DRX/GEN.G
DRX has the history, was in the scene since the start, etc
GEN.G are a bigger org and they have a recent masters titleidk. maybe they can keep all three?
Yeah the decision will be tough one for KR scene you don’t wanna drop those 3
SleepingSnorlax [#28]Prx getting dropped have more chances since they are a small org who only runs based on fandom even if they are maintaining top of the table
singapore will probably be the next country in sea or asia to host master. they can't be cut prx before master singapore
Denjisideals [#18]Tbf I think even if it's not GE, there will be atleast one South Asian org. With OG leaving valorant, I don't know who will be a better option than GE. That being said, if they don't make playoffs next two years in row, they are getting cut.
VLT is another option from SA
when franchising was introduced GE and VLT were 2 orgs from wh 1 hv to be selected so riot choose GE , if GE cutoff from franchising probably VLT will come
ButterflyEffect23 [#29]well, T1 are safe

ig they will keep all korean teams and probably all of the teams will be renewed and if any team gets kicked then probably a team from that region will take their place
yayvsboaster [#33]VLT is another option from SA

I would say Chances of Global staying is High since they have previous worked in Korea as well and they are well settled
SleepingSnorlax [#35]I would say Chances of Global staying is High since they have previous worked in Korea as well and they are well settled
yea probably
cned_best_player [#8]gl0b0l, havent even made a single playoff lmfao
secret, nepo org dont deserve a spot
dfm, they have been better but still that performance in 2024 warrants one
i don't think its about performance more about finances and other PR stuff
Frogger0_0 [#23]the owner is a billionaire
but i am very doubtful of how he made it
they’re not bleed
Frogger0_0 [#4]although prx have a lot of money i personally think prx is shady but i might be wrong

either koi or giantx is getting cut
c9/eg/100t/nrg
tyloo
jdg
eg 100t nrg are all fine
eg have a clear vision for future
100t are a big clout team
nrg consistently sign big names even if they flop
m0rtem [#44]prx will 100% stay. but I think GE might go
they surely want SA viewership so if GE got kicked another SA org will come
yayvsboaster [#45]they surely want SA viewership so if GE got kicked another SA org will come
Should be good then we will get SA representative again
yayvsboaster [#45]they surely want SA viewership so if GE got kicked another SA org will come
There is no other org in SA who has experience like GE
ButterflyEffect23 [#5]yeah, Secret is getting cut imo
who else tho?
I will strangle the both of you
Disastered [#49]I will strangle the both of you
secret will be good when they finally move on from jessievash but thats never gonna happen
Frogger0_0 [#23]the owner is a billionaire
but i am very doubtful of how he made it
the ceo isnt a billionaire and he was an ex csgo player, cz prx was originally a cs org but transitioned to valo
ButterflyEffect23 [#5]yeah, Secret is getting cut imo
who else tho?
imo Secret could be getting cut from Pacific, but they COULD apply to be an EMEA team (I would mald if that happens but I think it's happening lowk)
Frogger0_0 [#12]dfm over zeta is the easy choice
CR messed up their application iirc, they can apply for partnership over DFM fs
H3ENnZ [#26]dont think so, only PH representation (org)
well GE is doing a better job representing PH lol.
NeGii44 [#48]There is no other org in SA who has experience like GE
we all just forgetting s8ul now are we
yayvsboaster [#36]yea probably
Franchise slots may be too expensive for VLT. As of now, GE is the only option
Anzaldinho [#55]we all just forgetting s8ul now are we
S8UL will not get the franchise slot of GE . As a mobile gaming org, S8UL has zero experience in PC games. Do you think Riot would give them a slot?
Iamronaksingh [#58]S8UL will not get the franchise slot of GE . As a mobile gaming org, S8UL has zero experience in PC games. Do you think Riot would give them a slot?
why is s8ul in ewc partnership then? only for mobile?
Iamronaksingh [#56]Franchise slots may be too expensive for VLT. As of now, GE is the only option
expensive ? how , riot will pay the org right?
Anzaldinho [#61]cope
S8UL always will be bigger than GE
S8UL does nothing for esports in India , they are more link entertainment org , rather VLT deserved more then S8UL
and abt partnership S8UL got EWC and they will probably play in pubg or cdm and i think GE never was offered EWC offer
yayvsboaster [#63]expensive ? how , riot will pay the org right?
riot will pay the org right? Yes. but They cannot fulfill the riot requirement
Iamronaksingh [#65]riot will pay the org right? Yes. but They cannot fulfill the riot requirement
they hv fan following in india , wht else is needed even earlier vlt and GE were 2 only orgs selected from SA for franchise but GE got lucky
Anzaldinho [#61]cope
S8UL always will be bigger than GE
Not a cope the owner has said they are focusing towards vct not towards EWC
yayvsboaster [#66]they hv fan following in india , wht else is needed even earlier vlt and GE were 2 only orgs selected from SA for franchise but GE got lucky
I am not a VLT hater. I am happy to see VLT in franchised to represent SA. As of now, GE looks better
Iamronaksingh [#68]I am not a VLT hater. I am happy to see VLT in franchised to represent SA. As of now, GE looks better
bro am not saying u r hater i m just trying to know if I m missing smth that i dont know
Hyxagon [#47]i think it’s very likely G2 will get a franchising spot
yeah but how is this related to Pacific
Average_VCT_fan [#54]well GE is doing a better job representing PH lol.
(org)
GE is never going to sign a full PH roster lol
H3ENnZ [#72](org)
GE is never going to sign a full PH roster lol
and ts is also not a ph org, they just did happen to have a ph roster, riot might go and pick up a ph org
ButterflyEffect23 [#29]well, T1 are safe
If one of them has to go it's between DRX/GEN.G
DRX has the history, was in the scene since the start, etc
GEN.G are a bigger org and they have a recent masters titleidk. maybe they can keep all three?
yeah keeping all 3 makes most sense
Iamronaksingh [#58]S8UL will not get the franchise slot of GE . As a mobile gaming org, S8UL has zero experience in PC games. Do you think Riot would give them a slot?
same reason rrq got slot over boom
Doinurmum [#37]i don't think its about performance more about finances and other PR stuff
Not being willing to invest will likely be a big factor for some of the teams that have been consistently mediocre.
catNmouse [#3]team secret
as much as i want a franchised org that reps ph, i want them to get cut. they got a shady ceo, kick/gambling/saudi sponsors and most of all, razzie binx as a content creator, cringe af
