Just one player cheating doesn't define the the whole region .
If that's the point you're trying to make ,then the ibp players should not be playing who knows they'll do it again. ( I like all the ibp players , this was just to make a point)

I don't think them getting a VCT slot would be that risky. I think there are some really strong players in India who could bring some amazing takes on the game to LAN. If they cheat. Then that person who cheated will be banned, simple as that. If multiple people cheat, just ban them. There's no reason to blame a whole region if certain people are cheating. Like imagine if all of NA was denied their VCT spot if 3 upcoming teams apparently all cheated their way up to masters but then were found out. Also I think Riot Games are probably already working on creating a VCT spot for India because they care about countries and regions who care about their game. Such as turkey and japan. Japan is surprisingly invested in this game which is strange to say the least and Riot is rewarding them with 2 spots in masters berlin. It's sad that turkey don't have a way to qualify in their own region and have to go against the EMEA superhouses but they do care about the scene considering how much resources they put into it. Turkey is a striving scene with probably some of the strongest fanbases(might be even stronger than brazil lmao). But yea I think riot will give India a VCT spot. The question is when?

They probably don't wanna invest in India. They were looking for organizer and found nodwin gaming but on the cost that they have to bear all expenses from prize pool to even team expenditure if they qualify for lan. I don't know if it is same in all regions. Anyway they introduced a VCC for all south asia Conbined

Just because there was one iconic case of cheating from India doesn't mean you hold it out against that region as a whole. It's like saying someone in your city is a mass murderer so everyone in that city including you is automatically considered a potential murderer.

Cheating isn't the issue, its moreso the competitive level.

Japan was already considered far behind other regions (no offense), so how will India compare? Not only is there a lack of strong history in FPS but there is also a lack of experience in Valorant currently.

There are over 1 billion people in India I think it is fair to give them a shot. Even if they don't have the same amount of experience the scene definitely will develop if given time.

I'm not saying don't give them a shot. But giving them a Last Chance Qualifier for Champions tour without developing the region first seems irresponsible.

Invest in the region for about a year like NA/EU/LATM/Asia/SA/JPN before considering their spots in a global light.

They're doing the same thing with middle east. I don't think it's the best idea but hopefully they integrate them into the normal VCT next year but I think they just couldn't add India and Middle east in the middle of the year because then it would ruin the current system because it's a point system so they'd have to do something special for India. I hope that this is just a procedure because they were late and couldn't integrate them early enough. I think India can make it through the LCQ if they persevere though. Hopefully riot makes the right choice next year.

The slot which is given is not only for India but with 6 other countries like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal,etc... So it is fair, and there is no need to underestimate the skill gap without even watching games..Lmao

Thats not the point I was making. Not one person said to not give them a chance. However, the region should be invested in before they have a spot for champions. As far as I'm aware, South Asias teams are particularly weak at the moment and far behind the rest of the world. They need to develop and invest into that region before giving a VCT spot.

I agree but lol Vietnam, Indonesia, Oceania are give chance why not India? Global Esports, Samurai Esports and Velocity Gaming are pretty strong and experienced. SEA don't invite us, dunno why, when they invite Taiwan at 60ms. As soon asa India starts playing SEA it'll get better. Especially Global Esports and SkRossi crash all the competition. SkRossi is prolly best AWPer in Asian region.

It can srsly become a big esport in india if given the chance. People should realise that unless you play against teams from another region , it would be hard to have significant rise in gameplay especially for a country like india.

TBH the reason Indian valo community grew "alot" was because of the PUBGM players who played Valo during the game ban in India. audience got to realise that there r others games other than pubgm. The PUBGM scene here is huge AF. equally the hate the players/teams get is mostly from the PUBGM audience

bro you're talking like a 12 yrs old kid rn. I understand why you have such a blighted image of Indian esports and you are not really the one to blame. Even if Indian team do pretty well in the scene... they will still be seen as fishy players. These are just the consequences of the history written by that one MF- who single handedly destroyed the entire Indian esports community. It just can't be helped, we understand.
sighs
But, the fact that you brought this dead topic back to life clearly shows that you know nothing else about Indian esports except this incident. Indian esports is getting bigger every year with greater no. of orgs, fanbase, invitations and specially the crazy good players.
see, we're not asking you guys to treat Indian teams- Godlike but just show some warm welcome. we were waiting for an invitation like this for so long and finally got a chance. so if you are excited about new teams, we're excited that you guys are excited about new teams and lets get other people excited about new teams- together :)
