Malav is 100 perc correct, Nobody holding an open tryout, do somethin like optic india did, everyone just talks about 17 y old dont have experience, Valorant seriously is the game for new gen players not that washed boomers, even if you are taking imports kick those boomers first and believe in youth talent. Moreover the imports are mid at best. Not like some other dude from EU to completely change playing styles and brainstorm super new ideas.Invest in a GM and a good coaching staff then scout young players out of 10 orgs even if works for 2 it is better than being mediocre after investing shit tons on imports
I think both are in order. To prioritize one much more than another seems to be a mistake. Imports will raise the overall level of the region somewhat, and increased investment in player dev will obv uncover more young, raw talents.
I do agree that it seems to be a little biased towards the import approach, esp considering the quality of the players being imported . Also the fact that the only high profile imports to SA are to GE only doesn't seem to do much to develop the region, rather just to ensure that they remain top dogs in SA but not much more.
guy is not wrong tho . India rosters filled with boomers going from one org to another . Like it tells you a lot when that dogshit player Rite2ace somehow gets picked up another org lmao
idt i see anyone aside from Tesseract who is really good . If any org paying 1000$ to a washed boomer / mid import player , then its better to find 2 young players and pay them 500$ each .
Also im ngl i dont think any org from India will defeat teams from VN , INDO , SG for example . They might get 2-3 matches but i dont see these roster filled with boomers winning the whole tournament , so might as well invest in players who can actually turn out to be good in the future.
