no way riddle is beating ns or boom

riddle fruads too. japan is a fraud region.

if boom or ns does not make playoffs (finishes 9-12) they get automatic relegation. I dont think this will happen since both sides are solid and the bottom 4 will prob be zeta dfm ge ts

it is not

i think there is no seeds. it just 1st seed picking their opponent from 3rd and 4th seed. vlr is wrong in this case. riddle chose qtdig, so its fennel vs noez, riddle vs qt dig. this is the source btw. https://www.valorant4jp.com/2025/04/vcj-2025-split-2-riddle-vs-qt-dignoez.html
