Masters Bangkok is only an 8 team turney. People gonna call it a mickey mouse turney like Madrid anyway.
bangkok is south east asia, so its 1 hour earlier. Same time as pacific ascension Jakarta.
western people complaining about the timezone due to Shanghai + Seoul for 2/3 international turney location.
EMEA ascension has the not so exciting EMEA playstyle. But pacific ascension is coming this few days, red bull tokyo in October and Asia tri cup in chengdu is late november. Those should be good off season turney in pacific/china timezone.
Where the funny fat man ardiis?
If a team from Premier ends up winning Ascension, then an org will have effectively "bought" their spot into Tier 1 Valorant, rendering this entire system useless
Getting to ascension is already travelling abroad to compete internationally, but competing as a team in VCT require company overseas operation that involve making bank accounts in Korea/Germany/US, setting up boot camps for at least 1 year, dealing with VISA’s, $50k minimum salary and other contractual legal obligation etc. Org is the only way to support that ascension team.
If PRX was to sign a new player, it's more likely that the new player will be playing ranked with current PRX member on stream just like something/monyet in the past. If we don't see any sign of that, they not trailing any1 rn. The new guy needs to pass PRX vibe test. Also new signing gonna take like 1 month + for VISA to Korea, unless the new signing is korean.
He said in PRX video he’s taking time off to do Non-Valorant related off season.
Stax Vision Strikers/DRX June 2020
*Vision Strikers 2021
No one really, followed Crazy Raccoon from Fortnite days and saw them competing in First Strike: Japan 2020.
FNC not making grand finals. Nice vid tho.
The Mongolz vs The Great Wall of EDG.
iZu is staying, I feel like TenTen is signed for the red bull event for xccurate absence. Red Bull APAC Tokyo is just over a month away and xcccurate is flying to China this week for music festival and IRL travel streaming etc
I only found out about this turney is because For Red Bull APAC. the New Zealand LAN winner goes straight to APAC playins instead of going through Japan Qualifier (originally). I thought maybe the mongolian have some sort of qualifier to APAC, so I check their page and found out about this.
Also on vlr page the winner of NZ LAN that goes to Red Bull event tokyo is not even FOCUSGG. they lost to Sumthin Dumplin. Website very flawed on "tier 3" regions.

Grand Final LAN is on rn, and it doesn't show on upcoming matches tab.
iZu better be the starting duelist over MidTen
Sylvan makes sense, proper smokes player, If xccurate staying, he's set for Sentinel/buff chamber meta.
iZu needs to play duelist, TenTen better be 6th player.
Former Sunda Empire and now Meikarta
Portuguese player, which means Brazilian team can pick him up.
China would have some domestic mobile/console turney eventually, it's gonna grow in asia. Don't expect similar development in the west tho.
also pacific. EMEA is FINE, but NA is NOT fine. Every matches starts around 2/3am, and during champs 23 I dozed off many rounds, missing rounds etc. EMEA can cater all 3 timezone, but NA can only cater 2.
Muggle, as soon as he became HEAD COACH, this guy improves EDG to champs winning team, beating PRX/SEN/LEV/TH.
Pacific: T1 coach Autumn got his contract extended before end of the season

I'd assume he's staying instead of the ? Could Leave/No Info
click the ... -> not interested in this post. keep repeating it and you're timeline will change
Here before IonlywatchvcjXD
Looks like akame failed T1 tryout, but if he’s in DFM we can see iZu vs Akame.
I can only up/down frag the title of the thread, but not comments. Your post rn #22 I’m upfrag says 1, but as soon as refresh the page, back to 0.
Meiy was a fortnite pro before, medusa was former T1 fortnite. Minty former fortnite pro for SunSister. Maufinn back in fortnite but was playing for northeption valo sometime.
If we're talking giving region slots in VCT for the purpose of just existing, I'd rather have OCE.
DSG because Toast (content creator org) always focus on fans, INTERNATIONAL fans, not just solely focus on 1 country only, like GE.
They did tweet the DRX Bundle

no SEN tho.
Ardiis gonna come back BRICK BY BRICK
Valorant is RIOT at the end of the day, so KR/CN should be dominant.
He's giving them advice. BRICK BY BRICK
GE won't survive 2025 objective based org funds provided by riot. Disguised will be good replacement.
I first heard valorant from ex fortnite pro player AimHero_o. He tweeted out quitting fortnite for this new game called valorant.
I got into valorant cause the team I followed Crazy Raccoon make valo roster at the time, so I gave the game a go.
I followed VCT because valorant give asia teams equal slots, same as western teams to international events unlike fortnite they went full CS and completely neglect asia, but worse. Shutting down HK, KR, CN server, never end up making SEA server and moving ME server from india to qatar or something, making SEA players stuck with OCE/Tokyo 100 pings.
Valorant cares and fortnite doesn't basically.
