Playing in low tier Ascension for years to come doesn't sound like a good investment with inflated NA salaries

They would have to win Ascension for that
Which is a risk itself

Valorant current model is simply bad

I'm literally gonna come back to this comment when Guard don't win Ascension

My guy it's been 2.5 years of Valorant and you still didn't realize that these are anyone's events?

step 1: sign a winning capable team
step 2: win ascension
step 3: you will get a 20-30M worth spot on the main league
step 4: profit
step 5:hit the luddy after u just made a bank

2nd part is not easy by any means
Especially in a game like Valorant where anyone beats anyone on any given day

Winning Ascension is a gamble

Yes, it is gamble.

Who would have thought Acend was gonna win Champions 2021? Or LOUD win Champions 2022?

Valorant tournaments are anyone's tournaments. Guard might be favourites right now, but very much likely someone else will get the trophy.

Acend had been poised to win a championship eventually and LOUD were favorites bad examples

Valorant is among the most random esport titles, in the sense of what's happening during tournaments and how often underdogs beat favourites.

The fact that there are only 13 rounds to win, and if you secure both pistols the map is almost always yours, is...
Not to mention always-changing meta and relatively low aiming ceiling. There's a reason why even minor regions pop off in Valorant on the same level as EMEA and NA.

paying 500k-700k a year for a 60% chance(around that) to win 20-30M? i take those odds anyday + lud lost like 100K in vegas, hes a gambling addict.

It's not 60% chance. It's less. 40% at best. NA league is very competitive.

What's 20-30M? Aren't ascension winners coming back to ascension after 2 years or so?
