Orgs have never been geographically locked to only being allowed to sign a roster in X region
Idk where that rumor came from but orgs are free to sign a roster in whatever region they want (pending Organizer and Riot approval ofcourse)
Russian organizations are allowed to enter VALORANT it is just certain sponsors are prohibited like Lukoil
Russian players are allowed to play tier 2 they just aren't considered a resident in any region atm as Challengers CIS is considered as paused not cancelled completely
I talked about these back then either on twitter or on my stream
BDS left before partnership teams were even submitted
Falcons had too unrealistic ideas in their partnership submission
OpTic fucked up their submission
FaZe were awfully run during the initial partnership selection
Weibo runs very budget rosters to turn a profit no matter their results
SSG did not even apply last time
NIP was almost in VCT Americas over MiBR
Danmark nævnt i medierne
Keep your eyes on Tenkai whenever he turns 16
polvi revenge tour
They already qualified so this is just a seeding game for the Lower Swiss
Only change we're making at Apeks is changing the coffee filter in the kitchen

Can confirm I accidentally clicked the Zellsis Crypto link
Hello VLR, BoDumb here!
I quickly wanted to share a feedback form we've created regarding Challengers in EMEA, please fill it out if you have the time for it as it can help us and Riot immensely to identify what's good and what needs to be improved upon.
You are also welcome to share your thoughts in this thread
Link to form: https://forms.gle/W671vaCmh4MtRh6k8
(This thread was approved by a VLR staff member)
Not for this year as far as I am aware, we're only doing the tournament management for Riot so we don't have a say in that really.
This year is a trial run, if Challengers EMEA does really well this year overall then I can imagine Riot would be keen to explore LAN opportunities for it just like how they did for Game Changers EMEA.

I don't think that is what he is saying in his tweet though this feels more like a personal opinion from you.
I interpret his wording to be more related to how VCJ is formatted with the Advance Groups directly into a Playoff bracket and how VCJ has so much investment but only 1 team makes it to Ascension in the end.
The problem with VCJ is that there are too many orgs trying to make Ascension so the salaries just get higher and higher so you'll need to pay a lot for a good roster. It isn't about Academy teams it's simply that FAV has invested for so many years but haven't seen close to any success
breaking, player performs well when playing with better players (shocking)
What did Bacon do back on Liquid Main to deserve this purgatory
Correct, OQ and LCQ were solely there because of there not being any option to do North and East qualifiers in January
Going forward the system is simply, North & East Qualifiers -> Lower Swiss -> Upper Swiss -> Playoffs
Interesting note on the stream thing, thanks for sharing that will explore ways to improve communication on that, but tbf we try out best to update VLR with what streams are showing what matches so hopefully that helped.
welcome back Apeks
