why indian team never import player from SEA or Europe? i mean they have more salary than SEA player but never tried. why?
orangutan imported SEA players and they were very bad in the game against AEC.
Moreover, comms issue is a big thing.
I really cannot understand SEA people speaking English in general (yes some speak it very well) but just an general observation.
It's the case even in pro play. I have watched so many PRX voice comms videos. Cannot understand 60% of the shit they are saying.
Honestly, I don't think it makes a difference.
Skill-wise Indian players at pretty good.
Just, for example, DM from velocity just used to farm SEA in CS. One of the most oppressive aimers in the continent.
He has retained that aim in valorant but all the t1 teams in India have absolutely no discipline.
SkRossi and lightningfast on GE are also very skilled when it comes to individual play (better than any SEA import could offer).
In fact, if any one of these players moved to SEA in a team they would actually do really well.
It's just that they cannot play together as a team and execute strats well enough. Their communication is bad even when they all speak the same language imagine what will happen if they bring in SEA imports.
The best thing that can happen to India is for the teams to bring in coaches from other regions. Enigma has YB from EU and GE hired Damwon's coach. Enigma is already looking like the best team in India by a fair margin (I am seeing GE getting 3-0ed by enigma right now) and GE actually did decent in APAC LCQ with shinobi as a coach with less than one month with them. They fell off afterwards.
Lastly, even if they want to bring in imports who would come? They do not have a big enough salary hike from SEA. Also, Indian teams would prefer to give salaries to Indian pros instead of giving them to a SEA pro because of course, brotherhood and friendship.
Rnt defeated EG 2-0 yesterday

Indian scene is trash because boomer cs failures disguise themselves as VAL pros now . They also have an ego which make it's incapable for their brains to accept criticism . Like a lot of the pros in the Indian scene look like they have very backwards mental attitude , they're only playing to make a quick buck and they'll be back to their mcdonalds career sooner than later . Indian scene will improve truly when we have a big lineup of young talent .
Currently i see orgs not importing players from other regions maybe
1) All indian roster winning vct is there aim
2) No players from outside want to be part of any Indian scene due to its quality and reliability
3) Every team has same time, everyone started this game since beta or the launch
4) language is a smaller aspect cuz everyone here have decent or rather is say simple and clean English but it still matters
They have scope but the execution is a bit off, lack of scrimming with other region teams (even tho I know it is useless)
