i didnt understood shit about valorant challangers 2023 , someone explain me layman's terms pls
So basically
VRL = challengers now (challengers has been decreased in level of competition)
winners of challenger = go to challenger ascension (3 event where americas, emea, pacific each attend)
winners of challenger ascension = get slot at the 3 international league (also americas, emea, pacific but higher, franchised teams are already here)
winner of international league = get to go to global event (like masters, champions)
Riot want money so they make the money, real fans sad because shit format but 90% of fans who are casual happy cuz league with their favourite streamers! Valorant fans so stupid riot can use their esport as marketing and still make a profit because they dont care about having an actual competitive and serious scene
