if we want to make least changes with the current ascension system my proposed formats is -

hold bi weekly tournament completely open quals kind of like the ones we had with nsg weekly just make it bi weekly
tournament structure
week1 open quals -256teams to 16 single elim
week2 -main event -16 team double elim

give it a points system so u can accumulate points - > top 16 point qualify for challngers finals -> 16 team double elim challengers final top2 qual to ascension

in total we would have (52weeks - 8 weeks for breaks challengers finals and ascension = 44weeks) :-
22 tournament each has prizepool of 10K =220K over the whole year so even if you dont qual for ascension you still have something to play for and showcase your talent for t1 scouts

Already spoke multiple times with Riot about potential changes in the system but they are committed to this concept for now which I get.

The key problems are these:

Riot is not financially supporting the tournament organizers which can result in what happened in Polaris where they just cut an entire broadcast day and put someone with no observing experience as observer for split 2. Reminder EMEA Ascension had no prize-pool so if you made second place in Ascension you did not even get some money as a consolation prize.
OFF//SEASON information only gets revealed in August, which means that Challenger players who did not make Ascension have 3 months where they have no clue what they can even compete in once Champs ends.
Most regions had no time to establish grassroots or local communities that actively watch matches and since VALORANT was born during a pandemic the game became way more internationally oriented than nationally which then blows my mind why Riot wants regional leagues.

ideally i would want a promotion regelation for every split with bottom 2 teams of t1 and top 2 teams of t2 but thats a hard no for riot
