EU Franchising Tier List

NA lists are too boring

Teams to include - FPX, FNC, GLD, ACE, TL, G2, MAD, NAVI, EXL, OG, BBL, BIG, FUT, GIA, SMB, FF, TH, KOI, TQ, CASE, VIT, KCORP, ALL, MOUZ, FNST, TEN, BDS, ASRL, PSG, OBG, ROUGE, FQ, LDLC, SK, NIP, ENCE, VP, HEROIC, MSF, LDLC, FORZE, COL, SPIRIT, SSG, Etc...

Since I have no life I have ranked them all Below :)

S (99%) - FNC, TL, NAVI, BBL, VIT
A (likely) - FPX, KCORP, G2, ALL
B (ok chance) - MAD, BIG, TH, MOUZ, SMB, SPIRIT, EXL, OG, BDS, KOI
C (mb in an expansion) - GLD, ENCE ,HRC, FRZ, MSF, ASRL, FUT, FF, TQ, TEN, ROUGE
D (Wouldn't count on it) - LDLC, NIP, GIA, FNST, PSG, COL
F (little to no chance) - FQ, SK, VP, SSG

alliance are not likely

i think it would make more sense for FPX to go to another region rather than stay in EMEA but who knows

agreed, competition too weak in EMEA

I think that they would move to china if they could but for now I think as an org there best chance is to guarantee a slot is in EU

god you're so boring

babysasuke [#4]

ironic

Nice initiative but list is a bit off imo

Subreezy [#3]

i think it would make more sense for FPX to go to another region rather than stay in EMEA but who knows

I mean since they just won an event staying in EMEA is definitely the safest bet, they have recognition and fans here

G2 is 99%, prob guaranteed

acend 100% F

EU_quiet [#9]

G2 is 99%, prob guaranteed

George Geddes made me doubt them

ldsaldlsa [#10]

acend 100% F

Yea I forgot to add them. I'd put them at a 85% chance

m8te [#11]

George Geddes made me doubt them

Nah, they are 100% in, the doubt is if it will be in EU or NA

m8te [#12]

Yea I forgot to add them. I'd put them at a 85% chance

No, lower the chance. Acend is a small org with no fanbase, and actually, that's not their real name, their name is Raise your Edge which is a gambling site, which Riot doesn't allow. I would say just because of that their chance is basically gone

m8te [#12]

they have no chance i think, they sponcored by casino

dude did u even searched raise your edge in google? 💀

m8te [#11]

George Geddes made me doubt them

He only talked about G2 from NA

they have met every riot requirement + they don't have any affiliation to raise your edge on socials

Hewcho [#16]

Literally first thing it poped up

Hewcho [#17]

No need to, I've heard Kolda explain it many times

m8te [#19]

The org still comes from where they come, the money comes from where it comes. Riot cares about this things

Wdym bro, it’s literally what it is all is gambling related, why do you think they forced them to change their name

There's no way this guy abbreviated Astralis like ASRL

My list:

S - G2, Fnatic, Liquid
A - Vitality, Karmine, KOI, BBL
B - FPX, Navi, MAD, Heretics, Giants, BIG, OG, BDS, Falcons
C - Heroic, Rogue, Astralis, whatever big org which is not in Valorant yet, except it's from Russia
F - everyone else, won't be more than 10 teams anyway

Olofboost [#26]

0% for Guild and Acend?

S: FNC, TL, G2, FPX, KCORP
A: NAVI, BBL, MAD, KOI
B: Heroic, Rogue, BIG, VIT, OGLU
C: Guild, BDS, Heretics, Giants
D: Acend

F - everyone else, won't be more than 10 teams anyway

BBL S tier aswell imo they pull the most viewership in the VCT tournament

m8te [#11]

George Geddes made me doubt them

how? is g2 likely coz they might just get an NA slot? if not, then i think you have put g2 very wrong. g2 should be guaranteed a place just like fnc and tl

Olofboost [#26]

My list:

S - G2, Fnatic, Liquid
A - Vitality, Karmine, KOI, BBL
B - FPX, Navi, MAD, Heretics, Giants, BIG, OG, BDS, Falcons
C - Heroic, Rogue, Astralis, whatever big org which is not in Valorant yet, except it's from Russia
F - everyone else, won't be more than 10 teams anyway

perfect

This list is wrong just for the fact that riot prioritize fanbase overall and teams like ALL has 0 fanbase

babysasuke [#4]

agreed, competition too weak in EMEA

There is no point of na lists anymore they wont win anything fluke region :D

Mortadelo [#27]

0% for Guild and Acend?

As someone said, Acend get their money from casino website, which is a thing that Riot hate the most (their tournaments are literally never sponsored by anything related to gambling)

Guild financials are shit, they've been spending and spending, getting nothing in return, they're not popular either

I've named 16 more deserving teams in S, A, B, when there's 10 slots, literally impossible for someone as shady as Acend and Guild to make it, out of all my list 6 won't be doing it anyway

BBL_Wtcn [#29]

BBL S tier aswell imo they pull the most viewership in the VCT tournament

They're not as developed as top-3, nor do they have rosters in any other S-Tier esport (LoL, Dota, CSGO, Rocket League, R6)

I think BBL will be included mostly for the sake of Turkish representative, I mean if they ignore Turkey while you make up 30% of EMEA playerbase...

Olofboost [#26]

My list:

S - G2, Fnatic, Liquid
A - Vitality, Karmine, KOI, BBL
B - FPX, Navi, MAD, Heretics, Giants, BIG, OG, BDS, Falcons
C - Heroic, Rogue, Astralis, whatever big org which is not in Valorant yet, except it's from Russia
F - everyone else, won't be more than 10 teams anyway

FPX should be in S because they already have a league team and heretics have purchased misfit gaming's spot in the LEC which improves their chances massively from what I heard Heroic are making it through the application stages for franchising so maybe a B

Yeah Ik what the situation is for both of them, but still, from there to a 0% idk. being a world champion has to count somehow, and Guild have their chance now. Idk, I still believe they won't get it but they do have a chance

orqn [#28]

S: FNC, TL, G2, FPX, KCORP
A: NAVI, BBL, MAD, KOI
B: Heroic, Rogue, BIG, VIT, OGLU
C: Guild, BDS, Heretics, Giants
D: Acend

Why is Kcorp up there, and Heretics has a bigger chance than orgs like Heroic for example now that they are in LEC

Mortadelo [#37]

I would consider them if there were 12 or 14 teams in the league

But 10... Like there's so much better options for these 10

Marcock99 [#32]

They've learned from the LEC, they need viewers

Olofboost [#39]

I agree there are definitely better orgs, I just don't know how much value current rosters can have to the decisions. ik the other stuff is more important, I just wanna know how much more important yk

I was referring to the chance they make it but yes BBL is still a new org and doesn’t have teams in S tier esports like the ones you mentioned

NIP is not going to EU franchising... staying in BR to play NA, Central NA and South NA franchising

Guild has a higher chance than alliance

Olofboost [#26]

My list:

S - G2, Fnatic, Liquid
A - Vitality, Karmine, KOI, BBL
B - FPX, Navi, MAD, Heretics, Giants, BIG, OG, BDS, Falcons
C - Heroic, Rogue, Astralis, whatever big org which is not in Valorant yet, except it's from Russia
F - everyone else, won't be more than 10 teams anyway

I think Navi has a really good chance

kbkdark [#43]

NIP is not going to EU franchising... staying in BR to play NA, Central NA and South NA franchising

It’s if they get denied from Americas region

m8te [#46]

It’s if they get denied from Americas region

Really difficult... NiP is a HUGE org and there's a 99% chance of the requires to franchising be alright to get into it

m8te [#45]

I think Navi has a really good chance

I doubt, their biggest facility is in the capital of war-torn country, where nobody will go for bootcamp right now, especially russians who are denied entry into Ukraine

They'd have to set up something spectacular outside of Ukraine in such small time gap before franchising hits

Also Riot is known for hating CIS, we might not even get a single slot, 8 EU + BBL + Falcons, or 9 EU + BBL

kbkdark [#47]

Really difficult... NiP is a HUGE org and there's a 99% chance of the requires to franchising be alright to get into it

I mean but so are immortals and loud

thanatos11 [#44]

Guild has a higher chance than alliance

They are a failing org, riot won’t add them unless they turn it around

Mortadelo [#38]

Why is Kcorp up there, and Heretics has a bigger chance than orgs like Heroic for example now that they are in LEC

I don’t see a world where Karmine Corp not get in but ur right about Heretics

Olofboost [#26]

My list:

S - G2, Fnatic, Liquid
A - Vitality, Karmine, KOI, BBL
B - FPX, Navi, MAD, Heretics, Giants, BIG, OG, BDS, Falcons
C - Heroic, Rogue, Astralis, whatever big org which is not in Valorant yet, except it's from Russia
F - everyone else, won't be more than 10 teams anyway

orqn [#51]

I don’t see a world where Karmine Corp not get in but ur right about Heretics

Why, BBL for example is way more likely to get in IMO. Just as big as a fanbase and Riot has to include Tr. KOI, BBL, KCrop and Heretics all have a pretty similar situation imo

dude u say na tier list is boring and then start doing an eu tier list 💀💀💀💀

U should have added another list
Z(no chance)-M3C

Riot said how many slots to each region?
