According to Lembo006, Trexx will play for KOI too. This would be the roster of KOI VCT 2023:

• Koldamenta

• Sheydos

• Starxo

• Wolfen

• Trexx

• BARBARR (coach) and another assistant coach (which will be revealed soon)

Opinions? I think this roster is pretty solid and top 4 by names (after Fnatic, NAVI and Liquid)

STFU, they finished 1st in the death group, go to touch grass instead of hating and ruining the happiness of others

I can confirm this :)

Guild already out of the process, maybe it helps you with your tierlist :)

There is something called academy, which they could use to keep their regional spot :)

KOI has a lot of fanbase, the org will for sure buy tier 1 players to compete on franchising and give the fans what they deserve (also, they could use a part of their actual roster in his tier 2 academy)

Why would M3C players go to an org which probably won't be on franchising/partnership international league next year?

Spanish streamer (+1k viewers right now), can't get the clip because the twitch vod has not been uploaded yet

Average hater, do not generalize

Sources: Guild has been rejected from Valorant franchising/partnership

(I know it was mostly expected but no one has already confirmed it)

So yes, the selection process has already started, so we will see leaks about that soon :)

WOW! This could be a way to leak franchising teams

Casually, KOI (the club of Ibai, the most famous streamer in the world) yesterday made a new channel called KOI VALORANT

Do you know other teams that have recently added a dedicated valorant channel?

When they get to franchise league they will receive money from Riot to get tier 1 players, coaches, analysts...

They could even deserve the franchising spot much than a franchising team, replace that team and stay in the league forever

I want to know it too :)

Thank you!

You have to keep in mind 2 things:

1. Some orgs just entered Valorant scene to apply for the franchising system, but these orgs couldn't make a enough fanbase to be accepted, and if the org does not want another thing that franchising they leave (blaming Riot although they didn't make things good as an org to create fanbase)

2. Other orgs (most orgs that seem they're leaving) are benching their players because they don't have enough money to keep them until franchising and t2 regional leagues start, so don't confuse it with leaving the scene, they are just waiting for competitions to form a new roster to compete

https://twitter.com/anonimotum/status/1553078540656058369?cxt=HHwWgoCxwYit0o0rAAAA

Heretics, Giants, BIG, FUT, BBL, NAVI, VIT, GLD, Wildcats, KOI, G2, Heroic, FNC, KCORP, OG, Liquid, FF, Rogue, FPX, XL, Unidentified traditional football team

Yes... I know it's the org with less fanbase of the list, but it's the "biggest" representation of Dach region...

What org would u put instead Supernova?

Bro chill, from what I've heard a MENA team (falcons) is on waiting list, so there still is a chance

When the phase 2 orgs of partnership get updated there will be another lists

I hope if they make a league with 12 slots, every 3 leagues has 12 slots too!

Thanks for explaining this again, totally agree with you!

best teams are players, not orgs

It's pretty simple: if an org is the best in Valorant but it can't make a big fanbase around, that org is not making things good as an org (u can see the perfect example with Acend, poor fanbase after winning worlds)

Yes, more people follow now the winner of master, but do they do that because of the players or the org? I'm pretty sure they are big fans of the roster, and that won't be a problem in franchising because that roster will be picked up by a franchising org, so fans can keep following their fav players

Some examples:
G2 - FNATIC
KOI - KC (probably the biggest rivalry in terms of fanbase)

But bro, we are talking of a lot of teams with big fanbases. Right now there is no org similar to SENTINELS fanbase/hype (for example), but teams like KOI or KC can grow a lot with the international league

For sure! We will see a "BIG ROSTERMANIA" after champions

It just depends on brand and fanbase, and FPX doesn't have a lot of fanbase (u could see it in this last master) like other teams I mentioned, that's why it's not on this list (but who know what Riot does)

Thanks for this info! I only know exactly Spain and France region (G2 sorry but it's not Spanish, its central office is in Germany)
From what I've heard, the MENA team (Falcons) is on waiting list, but what are the eastern europe principal orgs?

FPX could go to APAC and Guild to regional league, but their players will be picked up by a franchised org so I'm happy about them

Totally agree with you!

Bruh why? Most of the teams I mentioned can bring a lot of viewership and will surely make competitive roster

I checked it, the liquid official has less average likes/rts than liquid valorant lol

All teams I mentioned have money to invest, but what teams can bring less viewership than Rogue or Heroic?

It's a question because I don't know exactly every fanbases

Yeah, and I agree with your FPX thought

No offense but KOI has the highest viewership of Spain and the highest twitter engagement of Europe (https://twitter.com/KOI/status/1511784855805308935)

The EMEA franchising/partnership league could have these 10 teams:

· KOI
· LIQUID
· FNATIC
· NAVI
· BBL
· KARMINE CORP
· VITALITY
· G2
· HERETICS
· BIG

They did this 10 teams list with anonimotum, who leaked the teams that advanced to next round of VALORANT EMEA partnership process (https://twitter.com/anonimotum/status/1553078540656058369)

As an European it was always hard for me to understand American culture. What was fascinating for me is that they like bragging about their freedom which was weird for me, because I didn't think that I have any less freedom than them. I always thought 'What is the difference'. However after this game I finally understand it. NA is just so free.

LAN will arrive next year with franchising for every match, at least it's something planned

YES, it was a Twitch record (3.3m): https://twitter.com/IbaiLlanos/status/1540807171700510720?s=20&t=etaKQcWoBe3FSZ4e7sYrig

Save your hate because G2 has done a lot for the Esports scene, don't criticize an organization for a certain moment in a game

Full roster: M3C

What player, roster or organization do you want 100% in the VCT "franchising" (partnership)?

NICE DEBUT MAGNUD GOD
https://www.vlr.gg/97145/koi-vs-real-betis-valorant-regional-league-spain-rising-stage-2-group-stage-r14

Magnum debuts today in aproximately 2 hours on https://www.twitch.tv/lvpes2

And for EMEA scene if possible, please!

Yes, totally agree, and I already asked it and it and orgs can and would probably do that :)

I agree with you, and I think that's the principal reason for making the international leagues closed, without possibilites of better teams of regional leagues to promote (but the solution for that is buying their best players or the complete rosters from partner orgs). That makes an stability for Riot and orgs, it makes sense.
