franchising is about available slots... it was far more before... far more flexibility for changing rosters as well...

EMEA has 10 teams... NA has 4.5...

I retired here. My mother is from Germany and my father is from Sweden. We bought property here, the rest is history. I usually drive my yatch to different regions to play Valulrante, it's been an experience

the stability for whom? doesnt seem stable for anyone involved at the moment. not sure a stipend from Riot is all that large. Champs skins dont need franchising, CS Majors do it with an open circut

but I appreciate your comment and I look forward to your reply <3

4.5 NA teams... the most visible region has the least representation.. make it make sense

posted about a year ago

MEMEA unironically the worst region at the moment. only 1 decent team. I'm from EMEA, but it's just the sad truth we are not that good at this game. Better we stick to CS

Americas have won 2 Champs, EMEA only 1

posted about a year ago

says the most inflated region, with over 40+ Challengers teams, an ALL EMEA VCT that still cant produce more than 1 good team (MEMEA YALL BAD AF)

how was this not possible before?

look how the c9 superteam went...

people like you make me think val is hopeless, you just mindlessly repeat riot without any self-consciousness

lmao stability lmaooo they basically gutted all of tier2

tier 4 CS has more stability than Valorant

posted about a year ago

best tournaments?

best splits?

how...

there is nothing about franchising that made this Champs better than the one before: it was just production...

Splits were same as always, just less competition... less teams from NA...

none

name 1 good thing to come from it

youre right, valorant players NEVER do this

posted about a year ago

apply this logic to literally any other game:

does Chess need new pieces to continue to develop?

does basketball need more balls to change the meta?

does football (the real one) need jetpacks to stay entertaining?

Twitch clip from HLTV forums

Basically says Valorant is easier than CS for shooting, and CS is better in almost every way than Valorant

It is the truth

In CS, you have all your own utility, the movement is far better, the competition is far better, the esports is 10x better, etc etc etc

but I still love to shit on immortal bots in the childe game, I think it's like ice cream: you can enjoy many flavors, but have your favorite (like FNS)

posted about a year ago

orgs have far more incentive to invest in CS in NA now because Riot has destroyed tier 2 and in CS there is a direct path to profits: if a team qualifies for the major, which happens twice a year, they are guaranteed 1.5MIL EUR (minimum) in sticker sales (this is AFTER Valve has taken its cut)

s0m was on the rise. I think Xeppa, leaf, s0m, and Vanity could've overtaken Liquid as America's best team

posted about a year ago

s0m & FNS streaming CS2 now

should be interesting to see what they think

never forget, almost all of NA's top talent comes from CS (including 3/5ths of EG)

UPDATE: He just ace'd his first round

what?

posted about a year ago

this guy just says clickbait

has 0 understanding of the scene

legitimately thinks Shaz deserves a shot in tier 1 after the absolute disaster of this past season and the seasons before with SEN

he contradicts himself within episodes and between them

doesnt care, just filling space and getting clicks

valorant's news scene is so bad compared to HLTV Confirmed

please VLR make some competition

posted about a year ago

He just announced on stream

he also said he's already contracted elsewhere and is just waiting for the announcement

he hinted its for less money, which is surprising considering the rumors concerning C9's budget

DSG Zellsis? I've got a feeling of sorts

he's live now if you wanna ask him, but i couldnt clip it

"El Diablo's dead, there's a new King of Hell: Demon1" - Pansy

El Diablo 24

Demon1 20

Yay's time has passed. He'll remain a good player, if he can find a good team, but never again the best.

Pretty cold of Demon1 to make this his sub sound. It is clearly an FU to yay. He could've edited it to just say 'there's a new king of hell' but he intentionally left in the shade vs yay. and to be honest, RESPECT. Demon1 won champs, yay only won masters

he's lost his clout, he's had his reputation tarnished, pros arent talking to him like they used to...

what's next for Leorge?

will the next big leaker be able to fill Leorge's shoes/crocs?

posted about a year ago

look, this is obviously a schizopost, and i love it, but there's some truth to it

riot is certainly not inflating elo of pros or streamers or affecting abilities or anything like that

WHAT THEY ARE DOING is ensuring the algorithm aims to put you into cycles of winning and losing to keep you hooked

these companies are wholly unregulated and can be doing tons of shady shit like this

we MUST RIOT AGAINST RIOT

nah, its clearly a step up

remember how bad valorant was in beta?

truth is, he's 31

these streams are depressing, seeing a grown man mald

sure, its partly an act, but its partly not

of course, the state of ranked is partly to blame, but he's often overly toxic and contributes to the problem

his mechanics, his focus, his drive... it's low... its dwindling... he's like karrigan, past his prime. could he pull out a fluke champs next year? perhaps. is he one for the future? certainly not

he would make a good coach

would love to see an FNS vs Chet rivalry

why do we play

why do we watch

once on an hltv thread about the goat status of s1mple, i saw someone write "no one will remember him in 20 years"

will you remember valorant?

will you regret not spending this time with your loved ones? pursuing tangible excellence, not an imaginary rank? working for something bigger, better?

are we not slaves to rito?

the spectacle they put on, we fail to see that is OUR money

alas

Demon1's sub sound is an audio clip of Pansy shouting "El Diablo is dead, this is Demon1"

Is it true?

Will yay ever get his revenge?

Will he fade into Valorant history, a star that shined bright, yet faded quickly...

Will Valorant remember yay four years from now?
