Every India pro retires just for namesake or to get out of contract jail or when nobody wants to pick them up so they have to save their respect.
Nobody in India wants to retire at all if left to their devices across sports and its a cultural thing.

Everybody is trialing bro it has got nothing to do with anyone signing for any T2 team.
Our scene owners are good they will let go players for free if GE wants to pick someone up I am sure
Like Mogo has already signed their roster but if Rawfiul,DM or Levi get picked in GE trials I am sure they will be allowed to go to T1 and they will just pick someone else.

Boom if Famousz continues on his merry ways.
FS obviously
Naos is good too
DSG has an outside chance imo if everyone is at top of their game

Bcz MLT the org completely destroyed their own team.
They didn't pay the salary for months so Antidote the igl refused to play a week before split 2 was starting and left for TR .
They had no good options left so they had to pick retired rite2ace.
MLT didn't give players bootcamp so Azys and Tess had to play from home at 100 ping taking out their firepower.
Levi didn't hv good enough pc at home nd well Rawfiul simply was struggling to aim a lot that time.
The core is back again though this time with a new org Mogo just -Tess +Deathmaker idk why.

Fun fact guys SPG's MVP Persia has played in Indian T2 in past when he igled for Orangutan. Safe to say he didn't really had great time or any significant success in India back then so now a regenerated Persia would want to hv better time atleast against India

I would love to trust all the praise for SPG but I will always stand by my line of thinking that Koreans left in T2 are overrated and SEA will win ascension.
Case in point is last year Damwon Kia who were similarly overhyped before crashing out of grp stage.
There is something that Korean teams lack bcz they are bit cutoff from rest of APAC and play amongst themselves

As long as Dos9 doesn't pull Azys in ascension we will be fine trust

First banger of Ascension I have no idea who takes this matchup

They had time crunch so they made rushed format.
Both last year finalist regions are getting first round bye and rest all is simple double elimination format- you lose 2 matches and you get eliminated.

I will be very honest those who know the scene closely know very well that this is best possible matchups for RNT.
RNT relies on aim and they have 2 teams who are more strat heavy and not super huge aimers back to back so I would say this is their chance to start well.
Also Skrossi has good history against Koreans lol

I don't hate him he is a good scout and definitely finds some hidden gems but he yaps unnecessarily abt things he has no idea and keeps pulling down Indian T2 for trivial reasons

There is no standard in India brother. Indian pros are paid highest salary only behind NA and some big JP orgs
To give you an example of internal disparity RGE's whole Valo team operation cost=Skrossi's personal salary at RVNT.
India's best core is paid around 2.5k USD per month per player

nope at the start first they tried to get investment from Bleed in return of some favors and then tried to do the same with Soul but Riot didn't allow those things since they amounted it to sort of selling the franchise spot for some reason

He is probably going to pay peanuts and hence no well-established Indian pro will play for them.
I think his academy is going to be bunch of T3 kids who still dream to make it big ; selected through some sort of tryout handled by usual suspects like Nethenoob and Hellranger

An open trial will happen if they do better than other Indian pros they will go to T1 if they don't whoever does best will go.
I am just hoping Indian orgs won't try to contract jail since most Indian pros have already signed for offseason

Tanmay relies on scrim leaks so you can never be 100% sure but he is mostly right

Top initiators- seriously lacking but Rvk,Tryst, Rawfiul and Kohli generally speaking
Top controllers- Levi and Techno by a margin and then rest of the top pros
Top duelist - Venka and Deathmaker( in a year probably Trinity would be good enough)
Top sentinels- most stacked category but still to name few Hoax, Rawfiul,Deathmaker,Karam1l, Deadly.
Top players all time - Skrossi, Rawfiul, Deathmaker,Lightninfast,Hoax, Paradox, RVK in that order

Some are in September in EMEA and Americas but for like our region we have ascension late September so ours begin in October.
And obviously our Indian teams play in October, then one tourney in November then convergence in December and whoever qualifies predator Pacific they also play in January

APAC especially Singapore server is only server where most pros get diffed every 2nd match by bunch of random rank demons

They aren't winning honestly but hopefully they can play to their potential and reach top 4 that would be good enough for now

I believe in Indonesia, thai or pinoys to take it this time.
Indo have insane firepower, thai have insane synergy and pinoys hv a great balance of both.
Also all these 3 rosters hv stuck together for a very long time and thus are experienced in ascension, LAN and everything that comes with it.

Last I checked there was an option to pay that way you had to fill in your details and then it re-directed to third party for payment.
But honestly easiest way is debit card option like visa or MasterCard just enable international payment and it should be smooth
If these options don't work for you and you are willing to shell a bit extra you can buy VP points card of codashop and such websites and redeem your code in game store

That was an off-season tournament brother Geng improved by a lot as year went by.
But TR did play well , We don't have any supply of new rookies like other countries bcz first only some 300k people play valorant and 90% play on low end laptops.
So you see I think producing good results with grand total of 40 odd decent players is fine bcz we do hv the aim atleast.
I think this a lot for India still depends on us performing well in ascension for once bcz despite sending all good rosters we are yet to show anything.
Our best ever core came back with shambolic though slightly misleading 0-4 last year and that definitely was a big setback
Onto RNT for now

A canon event just took place it all changes from here trust

another disasterclass call by Boo mann its just tiring

His calling has been disaster today honestly

Actually every map from now on TH is comparatively clearly better except for maybe on bind but then again if you can't anti-strat TH it's hard to beat them

This match will go down to the wire but map vetos distribution clearly favours TH from here on and I hv my money on TH taking 3-1 or at worst 3-2 for sure

LOL every single one of LEV player has ended up going negative this map and every one on TH has gone positive!!
You can't make this up this is man to man diff.

Open tryouts - any region minimum radiant last 2/3 acts
Sub-categorisation is Pacific,Americas,EMEA and India region

Absolute W and while the new rating system might need a bit of fine-tuning in future this is definitely better than what we had originally

I am all in on underdogs TH, their rise throughout the year has been great to see.

It's been pretty much confirmed that they are getting the coaching staff first which would be done in next 2 weeks and then that new coaching staff will conduct tryouts and make their team

and Blazeking nowhere used 'fans' word while posting those tweets . I don't even want to defend Indian Gaming community its full of low iq toxic people and good ones are few and far in between but pointing out mistakes of one party while completely ignoring other party's fault is not done either and I would definitely take a stand then

#24

and similarly you can't justify calling a whole country of 1.4 billion people idiot,stupid and idk what else (he did delete rest of them and I never bothered to find it out) just bcz '1' kid from billions sent you death threat which anyways is just a keyboard warrior.
You guys need to keep your biasness aside or if it isn't your biased behavior then kindly consider going back to school and reading up ethics and morality again.

He did but people are triggered in his comment section bcz he called all Indians idiotic kids or something along the line and later deleted it after backlash and put a half hearted apology while justifying that his saying that was fine due to hate he and his teammates recieved due to poor team performance

You can take a look at other 4 player's comment sections too and see the difference.
I personally wouldn't do this to anyone but honestly Blazeking did pass a racist comment without remorse while playing for an Indian org so you can't expect Indians to be supportive of him at all even if you were best player in the world forget being best player on a low level team.

Trust me Oce won't get slot on India's expense. Even if Global gets removed Riot people work closely with Orangutan in India so either ways that slot would remain with an Indian org.

I think this is great , we will get to see some insane players get a tryout. Bring radiant in last 2 acts criteria narrows it down to barely 300 or something eligible to apply.
I am not sure about how many Indians are even eligible but I don't think more than 10 Indians can even apply forget any tryouts.
Fun fact as it stands currently our most hyped pro Venka isn't eligible to apply though he can push to radiant playing 5 men like he usually does.
I checked for fun and I think Skrossi, Rawfiul, Techno, Helliff,Marcai are only eligible Indians

I mean there are 3 clearly visible of which 2 were supposed to happen last year too but somehow got cancelled.
For anyone wondering which of these are taking place in India-

1. Convergence 24
2. Penta Off season invitational
3. Limitless invitational(host-Galaxy racer India(unconfirmed))
   4.I am guessing the 4th one is Unstoppable 24 by maybe nodwin or sky or someone else I am not sure.

Yep that's JP event though not sure about who is hosting

A potential upset in the making but it may be blessing in disguise for some T1 teams as now it would surely mean FCY won't be able to hold onto players like YesICan and Gin.

That's once in a lifetime map from suka diffing someone of caliber of YesICan no less .

I think you should also consider that maybe ZOL peaks at very right time or maybe they hide strats in grps bcz if I am not mistaken ZOL also won split 1 over both favs NAOS and Oasis.

Time for KRU's obligatory run for champions !!

Ahh you could hv specificied winning what?? The latest tourney where MLT played on 100 ping with temporary 5th and w/o bootcamp??
By your logic in past 2 years here are Indian events and their winners -
MLT core- Split 1 and Split 2 2023 as OG, Tec gauntlet season 10(off season) as OG, Predator Pacific league India qualifier as NoSalaryPeek, Split 1 cup 2 2024 as MLT .
Meanwhile TR won only convergence India qualifier ( MLT core didn't participate as OG had released them).
Rnt roster won only split 2
VLT/GRY roster won only split 1 cup 1.
I can't go back in time since others didn't exist back then only MLT core has survived the test of time and trust me nobody will pick you all up together unless you hv proven you are better than others.
Also I don't want to drag this unnecessarily but your tone was confronting so let me tell you Ascent is MLT's strongest map traditionally and even top teams prefer scrimming with them for that map.
I agree recently TR/VLT had better ideas on ascent but uk still see this-
https://www.vlr.gg/349116/true-rippers-vs-mlt-esports-omen-challengers-league-2024-south-asia-split-1-gf/?game=171198
https://www.vlr.gg/349115/mlt-esports-vs-revenant-esports-omen-challengers-league-2024-south-asia-split-1-sf/?game=171196&tab=overview
https://www.vlr.gg/team/stats/8030/mlt-esports/
Even at their worst they keep winning on ascent, their losses are also very close.
Only MDL has better Ascent than them in India.

Esavgabin has already declared interest and if none with bigger cv comes in it will go to him.
But I can definitely see someone like Onur or Warbirds interested in this project as it gives them chance to keep proving themselves on T1 plus say in building a roster from scratch .
I didn't say doombros bcz let's be honest he is definitely getting picked in EMEA itself.

I would like to know from you Mr. Watcher according to you which is best Indian team and then I will show you if I watch Valorant or only stats page??
