I don't feel that way but I get what you mean. However, in a tac fps game like valorant things like ping matter a LOT. Think about how bad that would be for regions like Americas or Pacific where the regions are very big, and there's just a lot more outside factors that could affect the integrity of the games if it's not on LAN. Theoretically in your eyes you're sacrificing hype of internationals so that you can have higher quality region matches, and personally considering how important the regional matches are for getting to internationals, I'm okay with that sacrifice
