Boaster in the last round of the game

I feel like EMEA is on a slow decline. CS is so much more popular in Europe that new players trying to break into the tac FPS scene would rather choose CS over Valorant.

What now?

Asia will be more dominant in the future just because of the fact that Tier 1 APAC teams can scrim with Tier 1 CN teams.

Everyone was affected by the tejo changes. If you cant adapt then you dont deserve to win.

Eyyyyyy ! fellow Xavi believer here

I dont think so. He does his job well and if he gets a good game he dominates so much.

Every paper rex member pops off in different games against different teams. You guys only focus on something because he is playing the most popular role.

after i lost faith in TS and GE and when PRX put patmen in the starting lineup.

well if edg didnt have internal struggles they would be at toronto. that makes them a 2 team region now

He even licked his lips 😂

Well well well

Taiwan and hong kong are considered both as residents of China and APAC. It just depends on where you register at the start of the year

Not to mention they got a malaysian coach, nepalese analyst, and filipino assistant coach

bruh why did they switch the schedules.... im gonna sleep through half of the prx match again

endgame is the obvious answer but if we are not considering that then maybe captain america civil war, doctor strange, or guardians of the galaxy vol 3

yes if you have no life or if you work from home

they take turns carrying games. they feel like a complete team

PRX 2-0 TH
BLG 2-1 TL

😂

EAST >>>>>> WEST

5 KR
4 JP
1 SA
0.5 SEA

What do you mean retaliate? Who's fighting who?

garena would want to be the exclusive distributor of valorant in SEA

there are no tier 1 games so everyone's just bored.

that's american size

busy getting his visa

Jake Sin has gotta be racist against Southeast Asians

Fair point

IMO sean shouldn't have brought up the cheating allegations.

What was a decent video might end up being percieved as him being salty because his team lost

thanks for the clarification

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i though we were still in the match fixing allegations. so we now shifted to cheating. thanks dude

i dont get what sean gares is trying to prove here.

Fair is throwing right? So, SR lost to a team that was throwing?

I dont think you read it right. Read again what i wrote above. Its "mishandled" not "mislead"

Thats because the viewership is scattered on to different platforms and different languages. On YT where Indonesians prefer to watch i can see regular matches get 3 k+ views. On the Thai channel and some co streams it can easily go up to 10k+. Other regions like PH VN and MYSG get around 1k-3k depending on the team thats playing

Riot is the developer and publisher of valorant

Riot and SOOP have an exclusivity deal where SOOP will cover tournament cost and in turn SOOP will have stream exclusivity. This kills the tier 2 scene because nobody knows or even cares about SOOP

Additional information:
The whole of SEA could easily garner 5-10k simulataneous views on YT and Twitch. However, on SOOP the official english stream barely makes it over 500 views

Its bad because with this deal SOOp has exclusive streaming rights meaning games cant be stream and costreamed on YT and Twitch which the majority of SEA uses

Riot mishandled tier2 so bad that prominent orgs are leaving. Recent news is Mongolz left valorant

Asians are too polite for this shit. That's why we import dramatic complainers from NA (fr0st)

oh you're right thanks for correcting me. i thought zol left cuz all their players were lft

if you put it that way then BOOM still has a chance. they'll be representing the whole of SEA instead of just indonesia. Given their track record in multiple games they've already had experience in handling players from other SEA countries.

billion dollar company wanting to save a few cents leads to bad decisions

yeah, its basically killing tier 2 because no one wants to watch it over there. Twitch and YT co-streaming is not allowed

SOOP has streaming rights for SEA tier 2 provided they shoulder the cost of running it.

List of decent Orgs that pulled out of SEA tier 2 because of SOOP and Riot's incompetence

Made in Thailand
Alter Ego
Bigetron

Is riot gonna wait until the SEA scene is gonna collapse?

edit: full sense not confirmed yet mb

who are these content creators? i haven't seen a single soul who said SOOP would be good for tier 2 SEA

thailand is the only country that will survive SOOP because they're the country in SEA that cares to watch games over there
