does anybody actually watching this EU LCQ?
EMEA being a farmers league holds 0 value to the region being the most successful in val. Also every region but Americas is a 2/3 team region, i.e. farmers leagues.
Valorant just isn't that big in EU because the whole genres fanbase in EU is still CS. NA fanbase moved when CS died in NA. Asia never had a mainstream FPS with large international events.
Also Riot wont be making anything off the leagues. Their main, and probably only profit is through the skin sales at champs.
