if riot has a brain the cut the BS and just stop this bs
you can't really punish BBL, they played the fuck out of riot, unless there were lies told
but there is absolutely no reason to allow PCF to compete, the org has done nothing for the slot, and is completely underserving now
retained none of their ascension players, and not only that, is too small of an org to sign a competitive roster
The INSULT to lewn and sociablee that they might have to play for PCF
Give the slot to dnsty
Pcfic hasn't done anything for the slot except have 2 good teams that made finals one year and won the next year but yea
players did that, ascension is to reward the best team
the players are gone, not a single one remains, give the slot to dsyre
"cope" and its just invalidating the work of 5+ dnsty players/coaches just for an academy team to sneak into T1
and it turns out that academy team would be in T1 regardless
Maybe dsyre should have won ascension then huh. But guess what they weren't even at ascension, they are possibly one of the least deserving teams to be in tier 1
dnsty *
and the point being that BCF is not an affiliate, FNC does not own all of mandatory's players
Guess who still didn't win ascension. Also every ascension team is going to get players poached by other teams or have player not eligible to play, that is just the nature of Valorant esports. So stop crying about how DNSTY deserved to take PCF's place when that would undermine the whole point of ascension.
undermining the whole point of ascension, is having PCF in the league without any of the PCF players
you are ignoring what I'm saying
ULF haven't been poached either so idk what this point is, neither were NS, neither were G2
poaching only really happened to kaajak in all of ascension.
And it happened here, because these are literally just BBL players from the start, so yes it's riots fault, but PCF has no business in the league now, as THE PLAYERS THAT WON ASCENSION ARE ON A DIFFERENT ROSTER
So now ascension players belong to the org they ascended on and can only play on that org and can't leave for a partnered team that can pay them more and offer a more stable environment because that totally makes sense.
Also, G2 and NS were the very definition of poaching, they waited until a team ascended and then bought all their players, and just because sin prisa and the guard didn't have enough capital to support tier 1 doesn't mean that their players weren't poached.
And also your being quite hypocritical when m8's have a completely different roster from when they ascended and definitely don't deserve to be in tier 1 apart from viewership. So if PCF doesn't deserve it neither does m8's and I bet you won't admit that and try to come up with every excuse for why m8's deserve to be in tier 1 despite being shit.
m8 kept their roster in the first year.. retard
secondly, G2 and NS replaced TGRD and SPG, BBL is an already partnered team, so don't excuse it
it's weak as fuck, the only thing PCF did was deny a team T1, while they already had a T1 slot on BBL
pcific has plenty of talent to choose from if they want to build another cracked roster
they proved they could do it once, who says they can't do it again?
nobody says they can't but the point is that they are no longer deserving of T1, as their players were owned by BBL from the start
also PCF struck gold, they have no money to build an actual roster, and I'm not sure they will get money for the BBL transfer since BBL ALREADY OWNED their players lol
I agree with you, for once
Looking back on it now, all that BO5 really accomplished is deny DSY a place in tier 1. It's crazy that instead of them playing, we now either get PCIFIC making an entirely new roster or a bidding war for some random streamer org. DSY should ascend in their place imo
yes, and the precedent riot set was that the PLAYERS are the ones that win ascension, they did this with TGRD and SPG
so by that metric PCF now has no business being in T1 :)
ok pretty much BBL had said that Pcific were an affiliate team so in essence the orgs were working together, like TL and Apeks were. That is the sole reason they were allowed to compete in ascension, other orgs have academy teams: LEV, SEN, TL etc, these teams aren't allowed to compete because their players are already contracted with a franchised tier 1 org. What BBL have just done is trick RIOT by saying Pcific players are independent from BBL but evidently they were already contracted or planned to be contracted. There's no real standard for this so I guess hypothetically you could cope and say they just decided to ALL leave their org to form the exact same team under an org they've never played for. It's extremely shitty because they stopped actual T2 organisations from ascending, like BBL since they are franchised have a lot more resources than these T2 orgs that are taking on an actual risk to invest.
To be fair I think it's good what BBL did, they kinda used a loophole but it technically did arm nobody, so I feel okay with that. I do think Riot should take the slot and o same process as for KOI, if it's done no prob
BBL have so much more resources to freely invest and compete for an ascension slot since the worse case scenario for them is that they still get put their T2 players in T1 AND riot helps with their funding but for these T2 orgs, who can't compete with BBL's resources, they take on significantly more risk as they only get 1 chance to ascend in a year and don't really have a back-up like BBL does. There's no way you don't see how this sets a bad precendent or affects the T2 talent not lucky enough to be on BBL's pay roll.
the more distasteful thing is BCF players are literally there just to DENY others a chance so PCF can act like BBLs academy in T1
If PCF signed another roster and they got another comeback and lar0k this would happen again
there was no need to do this from the side of BBL besides to take the chances from another
like pcific wasnt the best team in the region before bbl partner lol
they gonna go 0-5 we dont need dsyre. atleast pcific can put alot of talent on tier 1 scene
????????
wtf do you mean picific can put a lot of talent in T1, WHAT TALENT??? THEY DON'T HAVE A SINGLE PLAYER ON THEIR ROSTER???? DYSNTY HAD TALENT, MANDATORY HAD TALENT. WHY TF SHOULD THESE PLAYERS SUFFER BECAUSE THEY LOST TO AN ALREADY FRANCHISED TEAM
dysnty doesnt have any talent besides one player thats it mandatory is not gonna do anyshit in tier 1 and go 0-5. pcific can sign alotof turkish players from turkish league and put alotof energy to emea. why do u even want to watch teams that who plays boring and gonna go 0-5 lol.
pcf is a broke ass org, turkey notoriously has high buyouts on the talent
its not happening, they got lucky with the original 5 core, it won't happen again, especially not for one year
I'd rather take a solid known next up team like mandatory or dnsty than 5 ranked turks who havent ever competed because PCF can't afford players without their owners
im trying to say i mean m8 won ascension and played 2 years in tier 1 what they did? nothing just 0-5 and boring gameplay thats it. watching random players gonna be more fun to watching team that who is gonna go 0-5. also pcific as a org make history in tier 2 emea league. they created one of the best tier 2 team. played 2 grand finals and won. they deserve spot
they "created", you mean BBL a franchised T1 org with may more resources to invest created one of the best T2 teams in EMEA history? Wow so glad our Tier 1 orgs are really innovating by dominating Tier 2, but maybe they should try that in Tier 1
ohhhhhh I forgot a team's strength comes from their organisation and region and not the actual team of 5 players playing. How Silly of me! How did I ever forgot that TR as a region just has infinite talent and team synergy is completely worthless so throwing 5 random TR into tier 1 would be better than putting a team that has fought all the through ascension and played a competitive series with BCF. Yes, dynsty are worthless and mandatory are worthless. Thank you enlightening me!
italian org (with 1 italian player) dont deserve it 😂😂if anyone is replacing them its another turkish team
