I just think threads like that are so boring because everyday you have at least one thread like that and it's always the same teams.

That's the thing about these teams(not just RRQ), their viewerships are tooooo dependent on their performance, and that is not sustainable. If RRQ performed greatly the views would rise and if they didn't the views would drop, and not to mention the demographic who does this are probably the Indo PRX fans, so RRQ did very little effort to increase their market, their simply "borrowing" them from PRX

They need something consistent to hang on to. that's what separates ZETA and DFM (to a lesser degree) alike from other orgs.

Say what you want about idol culture, but it is the one saving grace the teams that do have it have when there's nothing more the team can show for.

Not really a good idea tbh :

1. Riot can't sustain that, they had to cut funding for partnered teams so there's no chance they're making more partnered teams lol.
2. It devalues tier 1 , too many T1 regions e.g JP-KR/SEA, EU/MENA-CIS-TR, NA/SA will make T1 look like a joke(?)
3. The views will suck even more, getting a TW and MN team will worsen the viewership if they aren't already.
4. Not enough infrastructure, this is just me yapping lol but I don't think riot's existing infrastructure is ready to handle 8 separate regions

Just my opinion tho someone mail John Needham.

I'm sorry for your loss 😢(no joke, appreciated your devotion to KPI )

Who's gonna tell him?

Is it really though ?
VCT ID's viewership only skyrocket when it's PRX and even if RRQ does rise it's clearly far far lower tha the level of PRX.

So everyone doesn't bust their nut just by looking at mommy vyse and the Crew member have to wipe their jizz off the chair across the venue

That's the thing, they practically never did. What's the use of huge population when none of them ever shows up in viewerships. I can also say the same about RRQ tbh, but at least they did their job of representing ID(partially) even though their viewership sucks.

Or if we are hellbent on keeping the South Asian demographic, relegate GE and get another Indian org who's willing to do their job unlike GE.

I think it's more of a high risk high reward. GE exists lol.

Nah I just don't enjoy talking shit about players and coaches in general😅

I'm surfin' that curve and ain't no one goin' to stop me 🤤🤤

My urge tells me to relegate global esports because aside from Skrossi and LightningFast, they did absolutely nothing about representing India and South Asia as a whole.

Mommy

Ok I'm reinstalling valorant

The difference is KC got enghh while GE got Eraser( sry Eraser)

Remove dfm and the views will suffer , remember that CR screwed up the paperworks so DFM had to fill in in the end.
And CR is the Far popular org by all metrics. Not to mention you have orgs like murash and riddle still lurking in Tier2(although they lacked the business and history like dfm and zeta).

You have at least 40k loyal fans who will watch zeta and dfm and that's not even talking about watch parties or if any of zeta and dfm even qualify for masters. These numbers are nothing to sneeze at, even in T2 Valorant you will get similar if not more than t1 itself

After all that investments into the Jp t1 and t2 I doubt the japanese fans would like it if their spot got reduced to 1 and riot probably knows that.

I had just woken up from a bad nightmare.

Where the players that I hailed as the future of japanese Valorant all turned out to be imports ( context: some of these players are sooooo obscure that finding their Twitter is not that easy) and we're back to square one ....

Thank God it was just a dream.

Finally an antarctica enjoyer🗿

100% .
But I can see why not a lot of ppl outside of fate community watched it , it's because there's like 2 shows you need to first get into before you can start watching heaven's feel 😭

I disagree bro, tokyo ghoul is anything but underrated 😭

New game
Girls' last tour
Violet evergarden
A place further than the universe
Fate/Stay Night heaven's feel
One of these anime is not like the other 😂

Finally something that resonates with me😭😭

Bout to tell Riot why import rules should be based on each subregion and not standardized 🔥🔥🔥

Read my dm

Read my dm.

💀

What was it about I didn't read the thread

Bruh, I hope they're not turning Meiy to flex

Hear me out,
GE Yoshii
GE Yotaa
GE Tenzou

Bet they would make another agent like OW's Genji just to counter her ult

OGs remember Spice and wolf

Might as well tell Jake Sin to burn money in front of John Needham.

it's great for the scene in the long run.
Knowing what kind of org Cgz is I'm quite surprised they've never done this before.

They probably plan to develop these players for themselves or selling them in the long run.

Nvm then I'm really living up to my name 💀💀

• hear me out, fuck auto correct
  TS Yoshiii

Team secret just kicked NDG and he primarily played Cypher and Kj.

Yoshiii also primarily plays Cypher and Kj. And Scarz did so badly this time that they might want to change the roster ( I hope) , thoughts?

Global esports are changing their roster so we can get yoshiii yotaa and tenzou there 🔥🔥🔥

Mods change flora's nationality to korean pls.

His game yesterday made me doubted him for a second, but his placement is fairly high in leaderboard (not really an indicator but at least there's something we can work on)

And holy shit Chay is so good

He goes by the name Twitterflora in ranked learderboard, and he's got a fairly high placement for someone who never touches tier2 , that's how I got to know him. He's been playing with delight since premier(?).

That's why I said this split as in sp3 😅, all the imports are gone aside from riddle and those who come from advanced phase, but alas, this is all just a glazing thread 😂.

There's like 3 months left but I can't wait anymore.

Update: quite late but Northeption announced building an academy roster

Did nth actually found a more profitable business planning? Are they becoming the Porto FC of VCJ 😂?

Also should I make another megathread about academy roster in VCJ because there ate surprisingly lots of academy roster here compared other regions , also I might include players who are never in T2 but definitely had a good number alongside scademy teams.

Flora officials joins Delight

At some point, I start to wonder whether glazing about China is akin to doomposting.

Also your last sentence is just stupid

I know it's a very weird thing to say and I'm probably just glazing. But I think Japan has too many good duelists in tier 2 while there's only 2 spots for duelists in Tier 1.

This Split we have seen players like Satoshi , Yowamu, Minty and Yuuta,Hals and absol(both of them are last split but you know what I'm talking about) . While Dep and Meiy isn't going anywhere. I think at some point, the players I mentioned will change roles which will affect their performance.

Tbh this might be too early to say since it's just advanced stage 💀💀

I need to know who's rising and who's declining so we can see which subregion's head sucks at their job 🤣🤣

Syouta
Caedye
Aace
Joxjo
Xdll
Absol (my goat in my throat)
CLZ
Yoshii ( save him from scarz and himself )

I think Northeption has the concept of "the 5th guy should be the fall guy" or they have a bad scout or the coaches ( both tinder and jaemin respectively) cannot assign the 5th role.

The players I'm talking about is
Maufin, wai , yowamu and tempura and thiefy, but I'm mainly going to talk about yowamu and wai.

Notice how most of them played a different role when joining Northeption.

Let's start with Maufin , tbh I have nothing to say about him lol, he started right from Northeption. If he played more games instead of going back to fortnite I might have something to say about him.
Then let's talk about Wai , the guy spent his time playing duelist ( stats wise on vlr no vods available) and he seems ok . But when he joined Northeption , he played as initiator. And his performance tanked , like so badly.

Next, yowamu the guy is now killing it at bc swell as duelist (occasionally he plays controller). He always played viper/Jett prior to joining Northeption, but when he joined northepion he was stuck playing controller and his performance tanked as well.

Tempura, I think he's just not good , his role is mostly consistent and he played badly with both scarz and northeption.

Thiefy, I think he should find a new team , he juggled every role except controller and somehow he managed to stay afloat. I think he can be a great player frfr.

TO BE CLEAR:

there are a lot of factors going into why a player performed badly in a team. So pinning all this to just northeption is a bit unfair. But northeption has somehow screwed wai , yowamu and potentially thiefy and I'm starting to get suspicious.

The match quality these players mentioned can be different prior to playing for northeption. Northeption plays in group stage , while the prior teams these players were at is playing in qualifiers. But Wai and Yowamu already looked struggling during qualifiers.

Tldr; if you are a new player in vcj , northeption could potentially make your resume look horrible.( avoid northeption)
But hey this is just a theory , A VCJ THEORY, Thanks for watching

Depending on the Ejay and adrnking's visa it's safe to say we won't get to hear them being interviewed 😂😂

YoY
Are users here even old enough to understand what YoY actually means 😂😂?

Thank you mods

Aside from China I don't think the numbers tell a lot tbh. I want to know Apac's distribution .

Me too bro, about time Jp secure 3rd spot in T1🔥🔥

Actually, there's a lcq but that would have to rely on Riddle winning ascension which at that point just disband already lol
