Why riot always host in EU when u can’t even sell crowd tickets over there. EU is full of csgo virgins that’s why…

Host champs in an Asian country and it will be full of hype crowd 100%

Too bad Racist riot has an EU bias 👎

Does Singapore have a very large esports scene? I would think if riot would hold an event in APAC it would be either in JP because of the large fanbase or in KR because of the existing infrastructure. I don't think SG/MY has either of those lol

How the hell are people like you so clueless about the game they are invested in? SEA has literally one of the biggest playerbases in valorant. Countries like Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore have a lot of valorant players. Also what infrastructure do you need dude? Esport events mean renting arenas and putting on a good show.

Singapore does have the infrastructure, they recently held the Wild Rift Icons Global Championship 2022 because it was hard for players to get visas to travel to Europe.

They should’ve picked somewhere in the US for masters, I don’t know what they were thinking hosting the first crowd in Denmark

I'd assume that it's because getting visas, especially for the Russian players, would be really hard but apparently esports players are given P-1A visas for American events so I don't really know anymore

Istanbul is the best possible place we could've gotten for Champions as of right now.

Most central time zone, making times more convenient for East Asia along with the West
Guaranteed good crowd with Turkish fans
Eased visa access for all regions

Idk what you on riot has been pretty open minded, introducing female agents, agents from many different nations, female casters, open competition, leagues to apac aswell as others no difference in treatment...
It's only a matter of time until they host a big event in Asia.

My best guess why rito keeps making events in Europe because they wanna steal cs:go audience / eSports scene since their base is in Europe.

Little did they know valve will take over asia first, since valve more insightful to know that Asia has the highest gamer population (all platform)
