personally i would take the dinner with potter because of the knowledge and expertise potter has. She'll give you the blueprint on being successful in competitive Valorant. Her knowledge will be worth more long term than the short term 1 mill. you can also build connections within the vct industry thanks to potter and her ties.
(no you cant take potter home after dinner stop asking)
Valorant it's an evolving game, that means that Potter style might adapt well to the changes in the future but there's also a risk that it might become obsolete or it might not adapt that well to meta changes, new maps or agents and also new players personalities, there's so many nuances to this.
I would still take the mil, Potter is awesome but that doesn't mean that being teached by her would make me as successful as her. Her knowledge might be worth every penny but i guess there's more to that than only knowledge.
1 million dollars so you can buy a bunch of tables for 20 dollars, sell them for 40 dollars, make a table selling business and then utilize vertically integration so you can produce your own tables for 5 dollars, then become the biggest table selling company in the world and then sell that company and buy out EG. Afterwards, have a dinner with potter and discuss the future of the new EG roster that will incorporate star players like “Poolchan”, “Dasnerth”, and “BerLIN” before forming a new EG roster that will make the Astralis dynasty look puny in comparison.
After 7 years of nonstop winning, sell the organization and leave to continue your own journey with the newly added wisdom from EG Potter to create a table production and selling monopoly over the world.
After that, make a book called “how to make a million dollars” containing information about your table dynasty and put it on a table - prompting a random tiktoker to ask someone if they would rather get a million dollars or a book that teaches you how to make a million dollars.
They will then choose the latter and begin their own table empire which rivals even the dynasty you have constructed. As this table empire begins to reach your level, you realize that both of you will have to face off against each other in a Valorant 1 on 1.
The loser will have to be crushed to death by tables.
You recognize this threat and begin a 5 year training session in the Ural Mountains in Russia with the Ex-Gambit core remembering all the information potter had taught you in your lucky 7 years. It is a brutal training with Redgar teaching you how to tp into site and expose yourself to 5 angles but you persevere.
Finally the day comes. There is a hard fought brutal battle before suddenly you lose 6 rounds in a row.
It’s a nerve wracking 12-11 score line when suddenly you remember EG Potter’s advice about remembering to always treat yourself like the one in an advantage.
You quickly swing out with a guardian before one tapping your rival and you send them to be brutally and violently crushed by tables. But before your rival is sent to doom, you realize it’s a familiar face. It was none other than your ex mentor, EG Potter.
With a dejected face, you remember what must be done.
“Stand proud; You are strong” , are the final words muttered out of your dispirited soul before you push her into the table domain.
Finally, after decades of trifle and struggle, you have truly become, the table overlord, but at what cost?
Maybe a simple dinner with Potter would’ve been better after all…
