Hi vlr, this is a lil guide for anyone who wants to follow mena val in 2026 (translated version below for non eng speakers)
the Mena format has 2 subregions:

  1. North africa and Levant (egypt, morroco, jordan, alegria, etc...)
  2. GCC-Pakistan-Iraq split (saudi/gulf countries mostly cus pakistani val isn't doing great)
    Where to watch:
    https://www.twitch.tv/valorantesports_ar
    https://www.youtube.com/@VALORANTArabia/live
    https://www.twitch.tv/saudieleague_valorant (specifically for saudi eleauge)
    Current top teams:
  3. Stallions esports (akai + best mena igl avvix)
  4. Twisted Minds (exit + prolly TU core)
  5. 3BL esports (ra'ad core + sand prolly)
    Why you should bother:
    2026 Mena val viewership numbers will be a deciding factor for the decision to give a mena representative franchising in 2027 (franchising = play in t1 vs the best teams)

my point abt pakistani players isnt a qual issue
theyre right up there with saudi and eygpt or atleast close
but
the system is fucked for them

Can't wait for EU fans to complain and whine they get less franchising in 2027 (5 EU, 3 TR, 1 ME, 1 NA). It's gonna be similar to when NA surprised they ONLY get a fair balanced 50% of americas.
