Is it just me or does anyone else also feels the same way?
Probably just you and a few others.
Compared to Americas and EMEA, Pacific has a different social media target audience. Half of the Pacific's audience isn't even using Twitter consistently, prefering Facebook and Instagram and other alternative social media. The Pacific accounts are also very new compared to the Americas and EMEA accounts, and clearly trying to learn and adjust their approach towards their audience.
Schedule should be coming soon, according to Jake Sin, Riot Pacific's Esports Lead.
I mean their YouTube game is pretty weak too, considering YT is very big in whole of Asia. They released "Meet the Pacific Teams" teaser, made it private after 2 days then released it again after few weeks.
Their handles are not verified too. They seriously messed up in hiring a good media and marketing agency ig.
Verified on Twitter at this point is a joke to a degree. RRQ isn't verified, hell even DRX isn't verified.
And like I said; their entire accounts are new. We haven't seen a unified Pacific/APAC-centric Valorant esports account since the start of the game's launch, and honestly I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt as with new launches, there'll be stuff to iron out and fix.
I mean for DRX's case, DRXGlobal's Twitter is verified with yellow badge but ig they can't verify DRX VS seperately as a business (yellow badge) as they come under DRXGlobal. (cuz DRX acquired Vision Strikers)
I don't have an explanation for RRQ's case they're in a different league altogether (both in game and out of the game) 💀

3x less viewership compared to what?
Japan, whole of SEA and India could very well amount to 50k+ views (I'm quoting this as very minimum and base viewership)
Addition of GE was not just for views but to break into Indian Valorant scene which has seen both organisation and rise in the last few years so don't just talk nonsense when you know jackshit
You're talking as if Pacific was in its dying breath and "desperate" to get into the Indian scene
nope, I think ur just reading a very pragmatic and neutral comment in a very defensive manner, almost as if u secretly thought apac was dying
the truth is apac generates the lowest amount of money, and is the lowest investment region, and letting an org like GE is just because they need indian viewership, it's just pure facts
if GE in it's current state applied for Americas or EMEA franchising they wouldnt even be shortlisted, EVEN if they relocated everything to LA or berlin, facts that will make u mald but not me, because Im unbiased
Brotha.... If you don't know, GE which you are referring to as any org is a well structured organisation previously operating in korea for major eSports titles (fortnite & overwatch) before introducing their Indian teams. They had maintained 2 overwatch worldcup teams(team India & team Singapore). And the best thing about this org is that it has never been in any kind of scandal, always doing stuff in professional and pure ways.
So if you're ignorant of facts just don't talk rubbish. GE could even have gotten into EMEA league i believe it's that good of an org. (Not in NA though)
Kekw, this dude focusing on EMEA part. That's not a issue let me fuck his ass. So Mr. Dumbo Ge got into franchising being a shit org according to you. But yours country's reputed org (FPX) didn't even got shortlisted for real. Riot didn't even gave chance to china being the thief of world. Sit back home n chew lollies kid if u don't wanna get ur ass fucked fr.
