Ascent defense. Need I say more?
They should've rotated this map out LOL

Yeah that's fair

Made the edit 👍

I grouped them with Southeast Asia in my head but forgot to type it out, whoops

Even distribution clearly hasn't worked for people, so I'm giving what I think is a decently balanced alternative for something I came up with in 3 minutes.

I guess it would be more fair to split EMEA into 2 leagues and APAC into three, but otherwise I think it's fine

My bad guys I hit post by accident I wasn't done yet (I got downvoted while I was editing LMAO)

New VCT leagues:

• NA East
• NA West
• Latin America + Brazil
• Western Europe
• Eastern Europe + Russia
• Türkiye + Middle East + South Asia
• East Asia
• Southeast Asia
  Each region has 6 teams, all of whom play in a round robin every split, with the top 4 teams heading to playoffs.
  8 regions mean international tournaments can have 8 teams, 16 teams, etc... nice even numbers to work with.

EDIT:

• NA East
• NA West
• Latin America + Brazil
• Western Europe + Africa
• Eastern Europe + Russia + Türkiye
• Central Asia + Middle East + South Asia
• China + Japan + Korea
• Southeast Asia + Oceania

I'm hoping for a swiss stage where you have to win 3 instead of 2. Would be kinda hype

Legitimate question: are you actually from New Caledonia?

???

Lmemore WILL ace (it is inevitable)

I don't think he'd do well. Primarily because he doesn't speak Portuguese.

I'm hoping RRQ make it. Been a fan of them since KICK//OFF, they've looked SOLID all year and they deserve to get their chance to shine on the global stage.

No, I don't.

Yeah, that's RIGHT. I'm a special snowflake and you better deal with it, buddy!! 😤😤 (I need mental help)

I don't like the concept of those. They're fun, but I hate that they signify that some people are more valuable than others. I could just be a snowflake, though

How is that what you interpret that tweet as

I'm not pressed at all lol, I'm chilling. I just had a

moment

That's not relevant. The way the NHL is with drafting, trading, and contracts. It results in most teams having a mix of Canadian, American, and international players. So when there's 32 teams and only 7 of them are from Canada, naturally Canadian teams are going to win a lot less, especially when there's a relatively even spread of talent.

How is that their fault

I guess they can be considered different regions of North America, but they are all part of the same continent

Goodbye!

How does someone even respond to that LMAO

That's a common misconception. Central America is part of North America. People think North America is just three countries when it's actually made up of Canada, the United States of America, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean.

Barça eSports

America is North America + South America. I am American.

Canada (-6) is WILD

Let me name a few without looking at a map nor Googling anything:

Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Portugal, Spain, Andorra, France, Monaco, United Kingdom (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales), Ireland, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, Malta, Greece, Türkiye, Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Albania, Kosovo, Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, Slovakia, Czechia, Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia

I think that's at least 10

Reykjavík always has great crowds. Icelanders have got to be some of the most passionate people on Earth

100% agree, he needs a lot more effort to master than an agent like Viper or Omen. But I think we're at the point in competitive VALORANT where am agent being easier to play doesn't necessarily make them a better option. If pros really dedicate themselves to it, they can truly master this agent. A few have already gotten relatively close, actually—tuyz, Mazino, s0m, BerLIN, and f0rsakeN come to mind.

I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, REALLY wanna see more Harbor play. He's EASILY the agent with the most untapped potential in the game, and he's SO underplayed for how immensely creative you can be with his walls.

Dude what even prompted that, that's so uncalled for

Türkiye!! 🇹🇷🇹🇷

On one hand, that's 100% true. On the other hand, it's not lore accurate which makes me (a lore enthusiast) upset

Venice would be a great place for a Masters, or even a Champs, especially since it is where Ascent is (plus where the Duelists cinematic takes place). Also Italy doesn't have any players nor teams in tier 1 VALORANT, so not only is it unbiased, but it could also be untapped potential for VALORANT popularity.

Who would igl then?

Wdym, let down by Derke? They got ROLLED and he still dropped 60

No I'm tripping never mind

I kinda thought pANcada would be duelist, honestly. Didn't he play Jett for a while?

Surely he's not better than tuyz at it, no? He's already renowned as one of the best Harbors in the world

That would make sense. I was kinda hoping they'd merge their own comp with the new meta idea. Something like Gekko KAY/O Harbor Viper Killjoy. Only problem with that theory is tuyz is LOUD's Harbor...

Wait, is he LOUD's Gekko now?? I thought that was Saadhak... interesting

...no offense, but have you seen yours?

Ah... well, there are surprisingly cheap flights there, believe it or not. If not, then just fly to Keflavík and take transport there

???

He played that really well (got a 3k before then, too), CGRS is just goated and no one gives him credit for it

I hecking love Reykjavík, it's such a nice city. You should consider visiting
