Overall not a mickey tourney, the matches are proof that every team is taking this tourney seriously and giving us amazing matches to watch plus crowd is amazing too, majority of people calling this tournament mickey because their fav team wasn't able to make it and started calling EWC mickey with no base. Dude a world cup can't be mickey bro just shut up and enjoy the matches?

Difference is that soop and rbhg were offseason tournaments with new teams, EWC is a tournament where all the teams qualified and are more established

EWC is the king of all mickey tournaments for sure

Still not in the VCT circuit
shrike- [#8]You don’t believe this sadly
You can hate the saudis all you want but having 4 teams directly in play offs is ultra Looney tunes

rbhg is the greatest tourney in this list because my team was able to win something

The best of every region goes into the playoffs?
Even though sometimes thats not the case?

So is single elim
Where's current best team ITW LEV then? A tournament with teams who FAILED to make a Masters are gathered in EWC lmfao.

Time limit is tight that's why we have single elimination and just because of single elimination u can't call of a good quality tournament micket.
shrike- [#15]So is single elim
No need for double elim in play offs. Just for unemployed bums who want more games cuz they have nothing to do
lissAluvr [#5]Than what does it make a mickey?
Single elim, poor quals, teams that went deep in london are at a pretty big disadvantage too and focusing too hard on EWC can mean a poor performance in stage 2 so a lot of teams like NRG are just taking the chance to experiment

First of all the tournament itself is outside of VCT circuit
The most prestigious event in valorant is champs
Masters events if you get high enough placement you get champs points
What do you get from getting a top 2 from EWC
And there is so many other reasons

Single elim is just bad. not a good format to determine the best team
either way, differences in format doesn’t make EWC an event that actually matters lol

Lets make it triple elim so unemployed bums who are obssesed with Val can watch all day lol

So is your only defense to this gonna be that you just wanna watch less valorant
shrike- [#23]So is your only defense to this gonna be that you just wanna watch less valorant
Single elim play offs is just better. You don't need 2 lives in every stage of an event. Ik you are obsessed with Val so you can watch old vods or somthing if it hurts you that much lol

talking about masters lol

No one cares what you enjoy
Stop comparing off-season events after Champs when its time for break and event in mid of the season right after masters and right before stage 2

i know no one cares about soop or rbhg just like how no one cares about ewc
shrike- [#35]Nothing to really come back from
You haven’t argued anything
#24
To me it's a great tournament to check up on teams that missed on Masters. I won't look down on teams like PRX or G2 even though bombed early, but teams that get far like NS, mibr/100T will definitely raise my expectations of them for Stage 2.
on paper EWC should be the most ideal tournament for any team because you could call it an irrelevant tournament if you lose out early, but you get a big morale boost and a good sign of the team's capabilities if you win it all. There is no net-negative result from playing this event

Yeah your only argument is single elim is better because you want to watch less valorant

Just because you say no one cares about EWC doesnt make you right :(
More money than Masters + prime of season
The only thing that makes it "worse" is that you dont see it featured in-game XD

Thankfully i’m not the only one who says it
Also just because saudi government throws in a lot of money doesn’t make it not mickey, it’s also a tournament shoved in between tournaments (literally, there’s 0 space between events)
irenic_ [#33]they didnt qual lol
Yea obviously lol. Point was competition isn't fully that high.
PRX and EDG who placed #2 and #3 at Masters London didn't care and dipped too. EDG played with a sub at EWC lmfao.

they had to play with a sub. lol have u watched the games? most are pretty high level and teams are absolutely trying. schedule fatigue is one thing, but the teams that are here are playing very well for the most part
I think the qualification stage was mickey just because how close it was to Masters London plus of the online format it was done on
This Groups/Playoff stage at Paris does not deserve to be mickey
All of the games have been high quality and everyone is playing to win

In playoffs yeah, group stage was a disaster.
