How do i decide on the cost of a player

Do it manually, do it based on popularity, or do it based on a single stat (average acs in role seems to be the best option, here)

if I make the website live for each champions tour event, how do I deal with teams being knocked out?

If this is regarding automatically updating standings when matches happen, you'd have to use webscraping.
If this is about the points allocation, I imagine you'd just use the stats from the games they played to allocate points. If they're out they'll no longer give the user any points.

Do i only allow a certain number of players on a team per role

Up to you. Limiting the players per role leads to more diversity in fantasy teams, leaving it unlimited may lead to more participation due to increased familiarity with the players.

Regarding stats, you can either scrape VLR.gg or use the RIB.gg analytics bot in their discord : https://discord.gg/aceNhaM . The latter is probably better, but some stuff needs a premium subscription. However I don't think you'll need one for this project

I will judge you based on your reply!

her entry potential doesn't really compare to jett or raze and she doesn't have the ability to play off-angles like reyna.

not a bad agent, but the stuns and walls are usually already taken care of by the initiator and controller on many maps.

I think there's potential to work her into a comp, but I can't really see how she would substitute jett.

Split specifically may be a good map for her, since jett isn't super good on that map and her wall, stuns get a lot of impact due to the tight chokes and close angles.

I got NRG over PK, but the rest is the same.

OPTIC vs V1 is a banger

Zander going to 100T seemed like the most obvious move in the off-season.

I can't possibly understand why they passed on him for ec1s.

Could've had a team with:
Hiko - Sentinel
Ethan - Initiator
Asuna - Flex or 2nd duelist
Zander - Smokes
Seven/Cryo/literally any other cracked jett main - main duelist

As for V1 in this hypothetical, I think they'd be fucked. jcStani has expressed that he dislikes IGL-ing, despite him being IMO pretty solid.

I was thinking that EU sanctions made it hard for travel, or made it difficult for Russian teams/players to operate/travel/participate to or in events.

is this a legal thing?

Can't see the reasoning behind disallowing teams and players who had nothing to do with the situation, just because their country is currently being led by a sackless cunt

It's a bad argument, though.

CS has a massive following in Eastern Europe, where it really doesn't have much competition. It's massive in Brazil and hasn't really changed even with Valorant.

Sure, it's not global. But it has a loyal and so far unchallenged viewer base which is arguably just as important. Saying CS is "not doing fine" when it consistently pulls record-breaking amounts of viewers is incorrect.

The argument would be that CS's potential is lower due to a lack of worldwide fans in big regions (APAC, and even NA to an extent), not that it's in a "bad position".

Having fans worldwide is a massive advantage that Valorant has, but is not necessary to be a successful esport.

lack of audience, as in lack of live viewers in LAN events?

I think that's a non-issue, tbh. Since it's a riot-hosted and produced event they'd much rather ensure safety standards are met rather than possibly risking PR. Especially since multiple players got covid in Champs, despite being quarantined.

Either way, that should (hopefully) no longer be an issue later this year, or next year at the most.

Larger third-party events are already confirmed to be encouraged and possibly even supported in the last quarter of this year, too. The argument still exists that these events will not feature the best teams due to a lack of VCT-related incentives, but I think it will be balanced by teams making roster moves wanting to gain experience in the now extended "off-season".

I can't speak for the casuals' awareness. Compared to esports-heavy titles like LoL, DOTA, or CS, I think the percent of casual players who care about the competitive side is definitely lower, but that's a result of the game's recency. The champs music video has like 25 MIL views, so I imagine many players are at least aware of it, but don't care to watch it.

If anything, increased viewership numbers across the board really only indicate steady growth for the scene. NA,EU, and APAC have all had 100k+ peaks, which is a massive improvement over this time last year when only NA had those peaks.

PRX, XIA locks

no other team even comes close imo.

jett mains only being able to play duelists is completely acceptable in this meta.

in the case of Asuna, the problem with his agent pool lies in the disparity between the skill level of his jett op and his raze. (The latter is way better)

I disagree about the game sense, too. Sure, they're not making mid-round calls or making reads, but their intuition plays an important role in many of their frags and is what elevates them beyond just incredible aimers.

For example, in clutches they often understand where the enemies are, which is visible in their crosshair placement.

My theory is that it's just what his friends called him. It doesn't seem like it has an interesting story behind it, tbh.

if he wants to play with JasonR, he can - dude's literally his friend.

not his responsibility nor his duty to ostracize him.

however, it's weird to even address it in the first place IMO. just queue and donowall chattors.

maybe, but this is a pretty fucking long honeymoon period already.

even if he does perform worse later he's still easily in the top 5 of NA intiators.

wtf? A normal person on VLR.GG?

Impossible!

shhhh keep it on the dl

It's rude to make fun of the differently-abled.

This is NOT bait! I am a person of immense integrity and would never deceive my fellow vlr.gg peers! How dare you accuse me without evidence!

My lawyers will be in contact with you shortly...

I, unfortunately, need to go outside to have sex (I have sex with REAL PEOPLE). If possible, I'd cut it out of my daily routine, but I'm unfortunately blessed with the power of acute pussy magnetism.

I found three of your chromosomes on the street while on my morning run. Please collect them from the lost and found!

glad to see that the all Japanese team is working.

In the case of Valorant, I actually think the Japanese player base may be larger than the Korean one, solely based on the huge disparity in viewership.

Japan lacks skilled and experienced players (edit: and coaching staff) who can create a team structure that promotes player growth, which is something that is very visible in Korea (DRX).

Theoretically, with time, world-class Japanese talent should emerge as it would in any region with a large playerbase.

wasn't their other bootcamp going to be in Thailand, too?

I imagine it would have been announced already if it was a LAN.

I think it's ridiculous to have a Japanese region where half (if not more) of the teams are 40% Korean. Just doesn't feel right. I don't think imports are inherently bad, but in this case, I think it may for the best to merge Korea and Japan into one subregion.
