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.

I want to have my hopes up

Cancelled by Riot, Challengers CIS was called off

Indonesia do not shit the bed against Thailand I beg of you

Yep, he's RIOTONE06

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.

Riot ONE isn't only this event, it was a month-long event held throughout December by Riot Games Japan. It also includes League of Legends as well. Online show matches, streamer tournaments, it's literally an end-of-the-year celebration culminating in this weekend's offline event.

I know I'm linking an article from 2021. Look at my history post. I'm just referencing one of the mentions of the regulations. I also know that some events are lifting the restriction, but it's as not widespread yet.

Yeah, no chants, no screams. Masks must be used indoors regardless.

Covid regulations. Trust me. They're loud.

They're slowly removing some restrictions (I think I saw an NJPW/wrestling event lifting the chant restriction but it's not as widespread yet.)

Cared enough to comment, apparently.

(Don't you think I didn't see that edit.)

Yeah, no chants are allowed either. This is from 2021, but I imagine it's still being enforced.

Government regulation.

He's not. Chill. It's clear they want Foxy9 to have more reps especially prior to LOCK//IN, and it slowly becomes clear that if Foxy were to be rotated in, he'll fill in Zest's role.

That is disrespectful to pineapple pizza lovers thank you

You are literally taking it too seriously

He played CSGO and PUBG competitively before moving to Valorant

I mean, the consensus on some part was literally that statement during their first run.

The problem will stem from both side of the pond being so adamant of the excuses that people who want to approach the problem level-headed will be called either way

Nope, each Japanese team (DFM and ZETA) will play each DRX, FNATIC, and PRX in a Bo1. No prize pool, just showmatches. However, the Pro Invitational acts as one of the events from a long list in a December-long series.

Out of touch how, again?

Nope

We are prioritizing high-profile T1 and T2 events in general. For those who have prizepools, we have a general idea of what we want to set. All OFF//SEASON events are Riot-sanctioned events. Showmatches are still a great part, whether they're organized under Riot or not.

So yes, we are covering every OFF//SEASON event we can.

*Challengers. Most likely, yes, they will play in Challengers KR.

Fellas it's Bo fucking 3, read.

Pain. I tried my best f

Long have we waited

Whz reactivated

We have elected to refer to "Booth Broadcasted Matches" as they are definitely being streamed. We'll definitely change if the Stage Matches are also being streamed.

Pine has been working as an Valorant academy coach for Gen.G's programme

No stream for this, as Red Bull has allocated the two matches featured on streamed.

It doesn't. Just look at Challengers APAC. Indonesia, South Asia, Malaysia/Singapore, the Philippines, Vietnam, Oceania, Thailand, Hong Kong/Taiwan, all have been using the three home region players rule since 2021 and they've been quite consistent and successful in managing it. It won't be the end of the world.

Big name in Korean esports, one of the franchised teams in LCK

Edit: nyadar, kebalik

Hxly= huliolio
RIZKYMD and 6feetdeep = OG ex-ONIC and Morph Impact players

Oh yeah ik, that's hype

Fella it's a KR vs JP event what do you mean FNATIC is there

There are a few statements that would make me drop everything that I'm currently working on and stare at the message or just try to sink the message in. It has been several minutes and I'm still trying to. That's not a compliment.

Riot isn't perfect. I think anyone who followed in their footsteps and mishaps figured it out from day 1.

But I've seen the work that's being done by the Valorant dev team. How the community (especially the lore and by extension the LGBTQIA community) gave them criticisms and feedback along the way. I believe they're making a sincere effort to make their game as inclusive as it can be. The higher-ups also could always improve, who knows?

Already listed in VLR, WCG is a big name

There's no bracket, it's simply a showmatch where both Japanese teams will play one match each against DRX, FNC, and PRX

Hmm, I'll put it back up

More safe than sorry, tbh. I'll loosen up but please don't be idiots. I'm fine with the discussions, dw. But I'm just putting extra caution knowing the possible responses.

Lotsa benefit. You're creating an inclusive and safe space for LGBTQIA players, and showing that they're not afraid to further the lore.

joke or not, l bozo cya

Homophobic and sexist comments won't be tolerated. You know the deal.
