although ewc isnt in the vct circuit why r some people saying it isnt as good as masters? I mean all the teams there had to qualify through a similar process and are good teams
This tournament is just gonna be Sportswashing like the 2022 Fifa Wdc. If Valorant didnt have these strict import rules for teams they would probably buy out our leagues.
Most Esport player have short career they need to earn as much as they can & im pretty sure they see this as opportunity, they don't care about your opinion.
How much ever you disagree with the circumstances surrounding the tournament (I'm not a fan of the Saudi sportswashing either), all the teams are going to be trying their absolute best to win unlike other random offseason events because of the gigantic prize pool.
sportswashing A.K.A, trying to give the saudi government a better reputation, and get people to turn a blind eye to the fact that they violate human rights constantly
Mickey mouse format + online qualifiers + sportswashing + less prestigious than masters. Even knights monthly guantlet is less mickey mouse than this fraudulent event
its diet masters calibre event lightly below or even with lock in end of the day its a extra event smthing we always wanted take wins where u cant get em but highkey if it was tier 1/2 tourney it would be perfection and better then a masters ngl
