Why no BLAST and other such big events in val?.

I find it very amusing that there are no, non riot big events that happen. It would be very better it organisers invest into them. Even if vct teams might not completely participate, most of the other big teams . they can do a invite based international LAN events too. FPS is a genre where you need to stay relevant whole year without breaks to stay at top. Once you are out of vct, we just have to pray

it will happen in oct-jan

Riot=control everything, Valve=control nothing :))

Once VALORANT becomes franchised, TO's like Blast, ESL, ESEA may start having tourneys sponsored by Rito Games. Time will tell

riot knows what they are doing. they have organised the biggest esports event of the year for over half a decade

Riot simply doesn't do that and I don't they ever will tbh

Well they definetly have not that much fos experience. FPS is another ball game. And most of the biggest fps event of the year in fps, have always been from blast and esl and they can learn from them. I like korean vct schedule. But NA and europe is just cap. 1 bo3 a week is horrible. Maybe it is just me.

Because BLAST is braindead.

depends on who made the franchise. if riot make the franchise tournament, no 3rd party organizer would be able to conduct val tournament just like league.

I know the blast has some backlash, but their production is top tier. I dont get why riot has such inconsistency in production region wise. I mean korea has some of the best production with budget not that great. On the other hand look at Na and emea. Hope it gets better soon

But why cant orgnisers plan event like nerdstreet or knights or someother out there. Just increase prize pool and invite top teams. At least locally

valve choose who gets events so they quite literally control everything
