what if a player from french guiana joins a south american team will he be considered as a import?
actually yes, "not an import" would be the right answer
because Riot would look at the country/island from a geographical perspective, rather than an administrative/political perspective, since the competition would have to take place within a server that covers the regions geographically
I stand corrected, thanks!!!
seems like there aren't any import rules public open for VCT.
but seems like it could not count as an import since I found something similar in the leagues lower than VCT IL:
Riot Games, Inc., the owner of the game VALORANT (“Riot”), has engaged LetsPlay.Live (“Tournament Operator”) to operate the VALORANT Challengers event in Oceania (Australia, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, Fiji, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, New Caledonia (France), Samoa, Kiribati, the Federated States of Micronesia, Tonga, the Marshall Islands, Cook Islands (NZ), Wallis and Futuna (France), Tuvalu, Nauru, Niue (NZ), Tokelau (NZ), the Pitcairn Islands (UK), Heard Island, and the McDonald Islands), collectively the “Region” as part of VALORANT Challengers Oceania.
but maybe French Guyana isn't exist in Riot ecosystem.
