I know a lot of ppl probably don't care so you can just exit this thread, but I'd like to share how 2022 will be a big year for the KR scene :)

Organizations:
-around 10 orgs are rumored to be entering the scene (some major, some minor), hopefully will stabilize the scene enough for there to be atleast 10 consistent teams
-small orgs already in Valorant (like NU) are starting to actually get sponsors

Players:
-lots of insane OW pros have the potential to transfer over to Valorant in 2022
-around 1-2 more superteams can be formed out of just the current players

Popularity:
-the game is back in the top 10 most popular pc games in KR again, which I assume is because of VS success
-viewership still isn't there, but it's getting a little better ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Format:
-KR might get another direct slot
-Riot hopefully will stop with the pointless seeding stages and actually implement double elimination into the format
-potential for more 3rd party tournaments to be held in East Asia, with China entering the scene (CN + KR + JP)

Anyways, thanks for sticking around and reading this, hope everyone has a great day/night :<

Would love to see KR scene pop off. We've all seen EU, BR, CIS, and NA dominate the Tactical FPS scene at one time or another. Time for the torch to pass to another

tbh I just want to see an Asian scene become competitive with EU/NA/BR long-term, whether that is KR, JP, SA, SEA, or even CN

Do you have any info on the rumored teams? What orgs are entering the scene?
