Take this L because clearly you cared enough to comment kthxbai
I totally forgot, hold on
Fella; you are making an unecessary scene out of someone who is entering our world and is willing to invest into a team of 5 talented players and a coach; not everyone is a millionaire and/or voluntarily chose to take the gamble.
Everybody's gotta start somewhere and it shows with Toast streaming DSG's games with Tarik.
He did the basic research on knowing what VCT was and what it entails. Even some people in VLR still have no idea how do VCT actually work.
Chill.
VCL. It's referred as Challengers Leagues now hence VCL.
This is a common misconception ever since the format is revealed.
Challengers =/= Ascension.
Challengers are the same old Challengers we've been accustomed to since 2021. Same deal, same format (depending on the region), same action. The difference is now with the creation of the International Leagues, Challengers isn't considered as Tier 1 competition, but Tier 2.
Technically you're correct, but the more apt answer is that these games are a chance for teams to qualify for Challengers, where they'll compete in Challengers for a shot at Ascension.
So:
Open Qualifiers -> Challengers Main Event (Group Stage/Playoffs) -> Ascension

It's not complete dates, but it's literally all the basic information that was presented as it should have during the end of last year.
If you actually follow https://valorantesports.com/news and pay attention to the LATAM tab, they LITERALLY EXPLAIN WHAT TEAMS ARE PLAYING AND WHAT IS THE FORMAT.
Reading, people. Learn to know where the information comes from.
How do you think I got the information to set up the LATAM pages?

I've personally used AME, AMC, or AMS
Nezko's right, Indonesia hasn't won shit at an international level. Or have they?
VCT SEA/APAC Playoffs can be defined in a basic way as inter-regional, you could also argue since it involves different countries, there's an argument it can be also counted as "international."
2021 APAC LCQ for example by Nezko's definition can be classified as inter-regional.
2022 APAC LCQ, East Asia LCQ, GXR LAN, etc.
It's an infinitely tiered system that can only be directly defined by context, but there's always a better answer because of it.
Honestly I would lmao, I was so close to calling both of you out for taking the piss out of each other and going in circles with your argument but I just couldn't bother.
Might as well anyways if Doggo and whoever in this thread are reading this (for all of you): You are going around in circles. Seriously.
You could be critical without being an asshole yourself, you know
If you see the original Challengers 2023 announcement, you would definitely know and do not need to make this thread.
But yes, the official title is Challengers League South Asia.
Looks like a semi-locked Challengers League, which definitely differentiates it from the rest of the Pacific Challengers League (where there's invited/open qualifier system)
Usually, it's for domestic/regional purposes (aka translation that might not have a direct comparison to the English version or to suit the culture and domestic fanbase).
I mean.
There's no stopping turning FGC into Challengers League China, right?
heh.
Correction:
EDG qualified for the LCQ. They weren't invited. At that time, there was a chance for FPX ZHUQUE to actually qualify to LCQ instead of KONE. If that happened, FPX would've been forced to either ran the roster under a teamless banner or sell the roster to a new team completely.
"In normal years, our plan is to operate two international splits each season."
Accompanying the statement is a graphic of the calendar showing just that, without any mention of Masters or any events between Split 1 and Split 2.
This is the part where I ask, source please.
Because as far as I'm aware from official sources, there have been zero announcement about what the VCT calendar would be beyond 2023.
However, it is implied the 2023 model are going to be the baseline moving forward, with LOCK//IN changed into the first International League split.
NPPA freeze rules all sadly
You're seeing Chinese teams getting a LOT better. Don't count EDG off- but don't count ZHUQUE, NTER, and ASE either.
Long have we waited, FPX reactivated
More like the fanbase chaos that happens (not blaming the org)
Gonna go on a limb here and say it's not 100% BLEED nor BOOM's fault. However, the shitshow is annoying. Another day in Valorant, I guess. Keep doing what your doing? Idk. Lmk if the KJ bugs are fixed
A bit of a quick turnaround considering Masters, LCQ, and Champions are going to be held in back-to-back months.
There are Japanese and Korean teams that might have something to say about that, though.
Even BOOM had LCQ finalists and went to Champions.
Well, good thing I rechecked.
I'm hearing through the most recent VODs and there's no such mention? Can you clip it?
Apparently the call is rollback from the beginning of the map.
WE ARE NOT RECREATING GXR PLEASE
Better Jakarta than Bali, imo. That fancy new indoor stadium at GBK would be... interesting.
Just those wondering whether or not the restrictions are going to be lifted by the time Masters happen. If the new guideline run smoothly at that event, most likely we'll see more events taking cue.
For those wondering: A major wrestling event is going to implement a new cheering guideline in coordination and collaboration with several agencies.

Probably the combination of political pressure and/or logistic limitations, especially considering Ascension has the potential to be an offline event.
Cancelled by Riot, Challengers CIS was called off
Indonesia do not shit the bed against Thailand I beg of you
Istanbul Wildcats are literally invited to Challengers TR. Imagine a random CIS roster somehow finding their way towards that.
Japan isn't the fastest in adapting their regulations, but especially with the isolated case rising in some countries, I doubt from the government's perspective, they want to take the gamble.
