Honestly Kick some of these bum orgs, I'm not talking about regions but some of the orgs are borderline money laundering lmao. Replace with another org from the same region

Look at TS they got players like Patmen JA KellyS etc but they chose to do nothing
Zeta got their Academy rejects picked up by some streamer's org and they got far into Ascension
PRX has chosen wrong everytime they have to make a decision (benkai, monyet, mindfreak, Hyunmin (allegedly))
GE? just straight up ignores its region (they got players like Dos9 & Sultan in their region)
DFM is just cursed.

Also we need OCE reps (surely if India can, why not OCE?)

dos9 and sultan were imports in vcl SA and yes they all gave open tryouts in GE but Kristal was chosen out of all Emea imports

sultan decided to take a break for a while and dos9 was instantly signed after ascension like hardly 2-3 weeks after ascension and GE ignores its region because the players are straight up ass like acc to coaches and some players indians got above average to good aim and shit util . Don't believe me just watch a vcl sa game bro like the valorant they play is so baad compared to other tier 2 regions like its arguably top 3 worst region after OCE and vietnam .

What makes you think they might be money laundering

1 Indo, 1 "Indian", 1 MYSG, 1 Thai, 1 Phili, we cant kick any of this one without hurting the representation, It would be weird to kick DRX, T1 or GEN (Even if one of them will have to go if they are a reduction of number of partner team), We also have to keep either DFM or ZETA...

No doubt, if we reduce number of partner in APAC to 6 team, we will need to split, if not, some region will not be represented wish is a problem :/

Currently they are not enough place for OCE and VN wish is really a shame x)

We Don’t HAVE to keep them, DFM and Zeta can be replaced by other Japanese orgs and same with the other teams you mentioned. It’s about having orgs that represent your region well and trying their best to get the T2 players from the minor regions

If you are a PH team you need to have the best talent in that region
If you are Thai team you need to have the best Thai talent from your region.

Orgs that recycle their old talent or bring in imports when their local talent is good enough are the problem and they need to be replaced by orgs that will bring up players.

Sure you can kick both but you still need AT LEAST on JP team so basically :

1 ID
1 MYSG
1 TH
1 PH
1 India
1 JP
1 KR (Prob 2)

An Additionnally

1 OCE
1 VN

So if it's reduced at 6 they need to split (Wish would be kinda tperfect), even if 8 would be doable

if PRX were to be dropped from Valorant franchised league. The the Org itself would disband automatically..
PRX is the only Esport org in val who only have Valorant as it only active Division. Sure they have a new pokemon team but that division is far from profitable CMIIW.

Couldn’t that lead to riot taking away their spot as in 2026 all the franchising teams contracts expire and riot will re select franchised teams

I doubt it honestly. Despite PRX is only a "Valorant" org.. they already have an established brand presence in Valorant pro scene with lots of Fans around the world.
So if they can bounce back or atleast be "decent" in the league or stage 2, i dont think riot have any reason to kick PRX out of the league for now.
