There shouldn't be any problem. For most countries from whom visas are required, it is electronic visas anyway.
Idk about Japan or any Asia county. I don't think riot will risk NA or any western countries viewership for now.
Valorant esport still not as popular as League esport
Edit: S.Korea on the other is quite likely
ye not even close, worlds final was at 90mil or sm and 95% of that was Chinese viewership
If u based it now, most westerns doesnt give a fuck anymore in next matches coz all eu is gone and maybe na still watch w/ optic. If they bring it to asia, pretty sure many would still watch especially japan. Even i in SEA cant watch matches this master coz it literally starts at midnight. thhey should try bringing it to asia next time.
It based on all lan event of course. Where previously it was dominated by NA and EMEA. Reykjavik 2022 is something else, majority of people were upset with the result.
Why would location affect viewership when there is no crowd? Genuinely curious. And even if there was crowd why would people just stop watching the event because it’s in a certain country? Am I missing something?
Almost no country in the world has a visa problem with Turkey at the moment.
India Big noooo man, and thai big no too,bcs the only good one in SEA is only Singapore
sad it won't happen he got benched in Sentinels and probably is stepping out of pro scene
Turkey definitely. Almost no visa problem with any country including Russia, so we could see some CIS action too. Istanbul or a holiday resort (like the CS major in Belek) would be a good place to host a Masters event.
nah, there's no middle eastern team, they will be no hype for home crowd
Japan for the hype like for real. Since it's getting bigger and bigger in japan. Japan should be the number one prio.
Dubai is the best for viewership in east and west. plus its more easier visa from cis region
im gonna vouch for Turkey because people said CIS can go there without visa problem
or NA or East Asia can be good too
India
no visa issues + will boost audience in SA
Russia
visa issues yes but putin daddy>>>>>>>>>>>.
putin buys rito then immediately gets sanctioned so only CIS teams can play. Gambit win Masters Reykjavik because all other teams cant attend and therefore forfeit
South Korea, Busan or Seoul. No EU country pls, that region is always at some war. Plus In Korea there is a possibility of getting a good audience and no travel restrictions for CIS players.
EU isn't always at war, Serbia and Russia are. If it weren't for those two we would have had peace for nearly 80 years straight.
So? Peace for the last 80ish years is still a whole lot better than whatever the majority of the world is doing right now
it was a joke chill habibi. Also this list is sht how can my country have one of the lowest crime rates in the world on the world crime index and be ranked 125 in the "peace index" ?
this is the only thing i could think of that might be the cause bec everything else is minute:
"17- Military expenditure as a percentage of GDP"
"19- Volume of transfers of major conventional weapons as recipient (imports) per 100,000 people "
idk, maybe bc of
4 - Number, duration, and role in external conflicts
6 - Relations with neighbouring countries
&
"The kingdom spends 8% of its GDP on the military (highest in the world after Oman),[30] which places it as the world's third biggest military spender behind the United States and China,[31] and the world's largest arms importer from 2015 to 2019, receiving half of all the US arms exports to the Middle East.[32][33] According to the BICC, Saudi Arabia is the 28th most militarized country in the world and possesses the second-best military equipment qualitatively in the region, after Israel.[34] By the late 2010s, there have been continual calls for halting of arms sales to Saudi Arabia, mainly due to alleged war crimes in Yemen[35] and especially following the assassination of Jamal Khashoggi.[36][37] The state has attracted criticism for a variety of reasons, including its role in the Yemeni Civil War, alleged sponsorship of Islamic terrorism and its poor human rights record, which has been characterized by the excessive and often extrajudicial use of capital punishment,[38] failure to adopt adequate measures against human trafficking, state-sponsored discrimination against religious minorities and atheists,[39][40] and antisemitism, and its strict interpretation of Sharia law.[41][42]" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudi_Arabia
mostly false, but regardless believe whatever u want in ur land of whimsy over there.
lmfao I don't care about Saudi Arabia
YOU were the one who made it about your country instead of leaving it at Europe being a very safe and peaceful place, that's all it was originally about
Imagine making it about ur own country bc you feel the need to defend it due to it's bad reputation and then getting butthurt after you realize ur view of Saudi Arabia doesn't align with international values and ideas
You asked why SA ranks so low and this is literally what comes up first when you search Saudi Arabia, not my fault man
no... something must be in the water where u live .. are u retarded or sm? i made a joke about how this is the first 80 years in history ur region has been in peace because before that all eu did was war or do u not know u own history? and u made it about my country because u linked that to show a false disparity. Another point is Eu isn't safe u moron nordic countries carry ur dumbass in every metric 🥴 u are just the bandwagoning majority. Funny enough I didn't even know astria is a country nor do i have any clue of where it is XD a spec on a map is everything ur country boils down to 🥴
anywhere here at asia. they need to grow valorant's popularity in asia when the game's still young or else this will be another esport that died in asia, then eu and na will be the only one relevant.
But i want 4 venues like lol
Like different stages on upper-lower quarters
upper-lower semis grandfinals
When 2017 they set stage on 4 states in China proplaly they do on valorant too
ik im biased but chennai , india is imo the best south asian city for esports it was more developed than mumbai or delhi before valorant cuse of proximity to singapore , so there are a lot of val player in chennai and TN in general so there are a lot of tamil vaol players , i think a LAN in chennai would be LIT as
I live here
(PLS DONT LYNCE ME)
Actually fair enough, i just don't think Rito will consider India atm, bc esports scene is not doing the best there rn. Seems like a good spot in the future though. Probably going to be Seoul, Tokyo, or Singapore imo.
just try dubai, is the best than any europe country. bcs for us asia cant watch midnight time if the lan r in europe
USA, Canada, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, Sweden, Finland, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Philippines, Thailand, etc...
