only casters this has happened with out of emea/na is achilios and paperthin in masters 2 and champs to my knowledge
v1 made astra and postplant meta or atleast maximized it
for sure but kr is definitely the most top heavy region except for maybe brazil
mako and buzz for korea, upcomers foxy9 udotan wenty honorable mention t3xture chibab exy
apac casting would be insane to see in masters, imagine this talent on the big stage at once:
blacknblue + daks
kremer + legday
oce casters (lowkey underrated)
paperthin + achilios
tasteless + artosis
illustrado + asurai
not to discredit any other casters for their great work, but considering all of these casters are very notable in asia + made a big name for themselves in apac it would be amazing to get them all at once in a international (and its sad only paperthin + achilios are the only asian casters at an international and they havent even been invited anymore)
W + add kremer and legday to masters casting
i use 0.25 1600 and it works like a charm
hes trolling this guy hates korea/drx with a passion
if rb was actually playing raze in a meta thats good with raze then yeah but theres been like no raze from him for some reason
rng teased a return when val trailer was first dropped in china so theyre def coming back
worlds 2021 final in east asia finals?? holy a edg vs dk match would be insane
ig is going to hk/tw apparently
shouldnt be farfetched for a rng acquisition, kone was suning before the roster was acquired
manifesting a TOE/EDG vs DWG final
i think hes also just a lan demon because my god he was doing insane as an igl both in calls + plays
hes called the quiet monster by stax for a reason LMAOO
fr though mako and zest are incredibly humble people, bro zest said he'll do better as a player after prx and ended up top fragging vs optic
nrg 2-1 please get to lcq
not saying it means anything, im just genuinely wondering because i havent seen like any trophies in the val circuit
does any team have more or anywhere near as many physical trophies in valorant as drx?
for reference, drx have 6:
clan battle masters
epulze royal sea cup
first strike korea
masters 1 korea
stage 3 korea challengers 2021
stage 1 korea challengers 2022
+soon to be 7 if drx win this split too
the only team i can think of that might have anywhere near as many trophies are eu teams from ignition series or acend with 2(?)
no its because sen is player run/has little upper management and probably is in most of their games, atleast thats what imperialhal said about their apex team
financials, investment, stability, marketing
ty, p sure theyre benched aswell for some matchfixing allegation(?)
any idea if riot said anything to lg?
hiyo is a liquipedia editor he + other editors have scoop on stuff iirc
cant wait to see the sen v tsm rivalry continue in knights monthlys LMAOOO
no clue bleed literally have everything necessary for franchising, they are primed for a spot besides maybe fanbase and not having a game changers team
banger ts 2-1 mith
xia 2-0 bleed
hoping indo finally makes it to masters after coming up short everytime
onic 2-0 rrq
mods fix griffin, xiii and w1nner are playing for yrselect and attention
honestly itd most likely be bleed, bleed is out here raising 50 million in investment rounds (just 10m less than 100t) + have an academy, are planning to organize tournaments, sign literally ANYONE in the sea cc ecosystem, have a strong roster, and spent 3 million on housing, transport, and stuff for the players
because every region has independent tournament operators, theyre free to choose format at will but its weird how japan still doesnt have a dedicated group stage
depends on the team
teams like stage 3/champs crazy raccoon are using a mix of english, korean, and japanese depending on whos playing
it depends on how willing each person is and their comfortability in the language: thats why youll see japanese and korean players in lft posts saying stuff such as “comfortable and willing to learn japanese/english/korean”
oto parent corp isnt bloomberg, its samart corporation
🇹🇭 APAC VALORANT challenger and Thai esports organization XERXIA have been acquired by One to One Contact, a telemarketing company based in Thailand for a whopping 3 million USD.
XERXIA entered the VALORANT ecosystem by signing the ex-X10 CRIT roster core in January, a quarterfinalist in the recent VALORANT Champions. Since their signing, they’ve put up strong results by taking 3 major Thai tournaments in addition to being runner ups only to Paper Rex in APAC Stage 1 Playoffs and qualifying for APAC Stage 2 Playoffs.
One to One Contact aims to make XERXIA a new player in contention for being one of the biggest esport organizations in the world.
Their parent organization, Samart Corporation, has a $1 billion USD valuation in addition to being public on the Thai Stock Exchange and has been around since the 1950s.
One to One Contact aims to massively up XERXIA’s operations in addition to VALORANT, aiming to give XERXIA a whopping no less than $200 million USD valuation up to $500 million USD by 2025.
Seeing the potential in the org, One to One has massive ambitions to hopefully accomplish in the coming years for XERXIA and OTO. The move will also help to aim with XERXIA’s goal of making the APAC League’s franchise, a goal that would’ve faced issues for the roster as a sole organization.
bc they havent adapted to the chamber meta, no one on ons is playing chamber (ts played one game in stage 1, k1ng hasnt been seen on chamber at all) and theyre practically using their stage 1 comps +yoru in a whole new meta
on breeze, their most played map, youre still seeing k1ng on cypher and not chamber and theyre starting to get owned on maps because of it
xerxia fans are the equivalent of valorant's dream twitter (but nontoxic, yet i see so many xerxia stan accs), imo theyre much more popular than prx
friend of mine uses airpods for val and they work fine
in this scenario asia would be imo around 9 apac-s 3 kr 4 jp riot is gonna be investing heavily into japan and apac and giving them only 8 slots is not gonna help
hoping the kt/sbxg rumors are true because tartarus is up next imo
cnj core under ins4ne was beating oasis in mickey mouse tourneys, korean scene is doing fine still honestly
kt sign tartarus please these guys can be t1 if they have org support
hot take but this game will be the 3rd seed decider if ldn win fpx
2-1 oglu
