T1 back to Korea is W. Asia timezone means no 4am American matches to watch T1.

the other JP org would be FAV, as they are owned by Kadokawa. Japanese media conglomerate that produces anime such as Kimi no Nawa (your name), Weathering with You, Overlord, Made in Abyss etc.

Are you that 1 liquid fan in PRX watchparty event in Singapore during that Liquid match?

Bleed M&A of Xerxia

if you can't beat them buy them. Hmmmm

Maybe its because CR valorant controversy a year ago regarding Rion/Francisco and CR owner Ojiji caught using smurfing account. CR owner Ojiji was punished with 50% less salary for a year.

T1

can't name 5 German org, even G2 didnt make it

Pacific League = Korea and friends League

CR invest heavily on their APEX streamer + player but rarely on their Valorant roster/streamer. Also they didnt sell enough hoodies on their merch store,

If Americas have 5 NA orgs, Korea having 5 orgs pre much means hosting country advantage of having 4+ minimum advantage. Not really fair but the locals there probably won't bother watching non KR matches on the venue.

CR not get into Franchise??? But they're a merch org like 100T now. Their lack of hoodies is probably why.

APAC fans at 3am yer ofc, best time of the night to make this thread

this is for Americas Franchise right? If this for future Masters and Champions, can already seeing player/s from CIS/Asia missing the event due to VISA issues. Europe for Masters/Champions way more friendly for international visitor + middle timezone between Asia + American viewers.

Americans don't like it when they get treated equally 5 + 5 with SA huh, u want ur special privileges "give us 1 extra slots"

well yer cause APAC so many countries involved, u cant have APAC with 1 slot in previous tournament. Thats like giving entire EMEA 1 slot. JP and KR (2 countries only) are the only countries in East Asia that are involved.

Crazy Raccoon have Astell (Korean player) in their current Valorant team and has had Medusa/Bazzi/Munchkin in their former Valorant Team. Crazy Raccoon also have an all Korean Apex Team. Those Korean players that has played for CR before and currently have huge japanese loyal fanbase. Its a win-win for JP and KR.

better solution would be having APAC North and South. If China sorted out their problem and have it resolved 4 KR, 3 JP, 3 CN wouldn't cause so much trouble to APAC South (SEA/SA/OCE) situation

maybe this is the result of China not having the game officially out yet. Im sure the KR-1 slot would go to China.

If America has 5 and Korea also have 5, theres probably a host country advantage to having at least 4+ org from that designated country (Seoul/LA).

Americans dont like when they get treated equally with others huh, u just want ur "special privileges"

fact that OCE and Japan not/barely included in the pacific pre much sums how too big of a region Asia have with too many different countries involved. Sadly due to China not releasing the game officially we wont have 2 separate league of APAC South (SEA, SA, OCE) and APAC North (JP/KR/CN). Separating Pacific into 2 region will probably be a better solution for everyone involved.

NA gets even fairly treated with SA: "Where's our special privileges? We don't like to be treated like others, we want to be special"

Americas: 5 NA + 5 SA (3BR + 2 LATAM)
Pacific: 5 APAC + 5 East Asia (3KR + 2 JP)

u wanna keep it balanced and fair. If 1 region gets more than others (e.g 6/10 NA), favouritism and bias will never create a game that treat all region equally.

Both Sliggy and TMV has its own niche. I like TMV cause he's open minded to cover regions from APAC/EAST ASIA/South America in which I rarely ever get from english speaking content creator/Streamer. He also likes to poke fun at NA and he malds quite a bit in which I don't get to see from sliggy.

President of Esports for Riot, John Needham said in the interview: "We're gonna do an event in Japan at some point, because the game is super popular there".
Also 2023 Partnered Teams season will be revealed "this next week".

PRX Alecks interview live RN on Sleepystudios TV twitch

https://www.twitch.tv/sleepystudiostv

Before the match they show arrogance and underestimate their opponent CR, since they do that its well deserved

2022 data?

well not everyone likes ML, some people want to play PC games.

Virus spreader Susanto nerf Jinggg so he can take the First kill probably.

Valorant LAN kinda has to be in EU somewhat.
If in America: Many player might not able to compete due to obtaining America VISA issues + America covid reputation not greatest e.g. Apex Raleigh
If in Asia: Timezone difference gonna lower viewership
Europe: More friendly towards getting VISA + Middleground timezone between America and Asia

From PRX latest vlog, Coach Alecks pre much said due to DRX changing their scrim schedule time, PRX no longer be able to scrim DRX. PRX ended up scrimming other Korean teams. Even Alecks admit they want to scrim DRX to steal more strats from them.
