Very big sadge

12 teams would be the dream, but who knows if riot will add more later

There’s always room to increase though, League has way more teams no? We could always see more teams being introduced in the future

similar system to LEC maybe? idk

Sadge

i wonder if the league is 10 partnered teams + 2 teams from relegation/promotion so 12 total

Okayyyyyy [#3]

Team skins confirmed

We will not introduce team skins since we see no value in creating them.

17 (LPL) + 60 (LCK, LEC, LCS, PCS, CBLOL, TCL) + 32 (VCS, LLA, LJL, LCO) = 109

Valorant = 30

Do LOL teams get paid by Riot like Valorant teams will?

VALORANT : 30 teams in 3 "first division" (VCT)
LOL : 117 teams in 12 "first division"

Not exactly, they have to pay a franchise fee to get into relations to be accepted from there riot does work with the teams but im not sure if its direct stipends.

So sad that the season ends in September tbh. I hope Riot really allow companies like ESL and Blast to hold events

so makes sense there aren't that many teams selected in Valorant compared tot LOL

yea riot is fully relying on the org to put up the effort in val compared to LoL where the fee is just a ticket straight to the final round of franchising where riot holds all the cards

they have already confirmed third party events

due to the fact franchise has no entry fee, there will likely be alot of expansions as the scene grows
