masters should be 24 teams aswell, 12 play in teams. but having more teams at champs thatn masters is bad, makes it less hyoe and less competititve

im not dramatic man its just the truth, there is a big chance we get many 4-6 rematches

its not like those teams are trash dude. but the fact that u will most likely see 3 or 4 rematches is quite bad. I wanna see as many teams as possible play as many other teams, not have 4 identical games wich isnt hype anymore

i mean its nota lower bracket run with 4 teams, at elast doesnt feel like one. I hope next year its 8 team double elim playoffs (expect for champions) since masters is a qualifier after all

probably yeah, its not a big deal since its the same amoung of games

its the same amount of games if u take away the groups finals

yes

u play the same team again, boring to watch

having GSL with grand finals to have 4 teams advance is just dumb. take off the grand finals and add a single elim 8 team bracket.
grand finals in groups is shit, here is why:
u get a rematch with very high probability (people dont wanna watch the same match twice)
if 2 very good team get put into the same group one gets 8th for sure
if a team wins the first time by far they can lose the second series and go out

if it would be a 8 team bracket teams would reseed in the groups stage and first places would play second places in playoffs first. in the end u have a more accurate top 4 in semis than in this format atm

lmao mod changed the title from riot pls fix this format to -> worst format in esports history

i dont know man, they shoudlve done a GSL with SE 8 team imo, wouldve been the same amount of matches

they had easiest bracket

seeding isnt gonna be that accurate tho, its proably 4 seeds

what??

that wasnt becvause of the seedint tho, everyone had seed 2 besides na first and second, they just played each other because it was by chance

if seed 2 is made out of 3 emea teams and 3rd na then yes.
if seed 2 is made out of 3rd+4th emea team + envy + vision strikers then its 50/50
but I think 3rd NA gets 1st EMEA since i believe vision strikers is getting seed 1

just a GSL into an 8 team SE wouldve done it

what are you tryna say?

u cant give it to any one else besides emea or na tho. otherwise u have a seed 3 na or emea team playing against vision strikes and a other emea/na team meaning one of them will end up 9th-12th

not even, its the same amount of maps and games

i mean no chance anyone else besides SEA or KR takes it imo

chinese teams aswell

deleted

i mean playing 8 team single elim wouldve been totally the same amount of games if u take of the groups finals

seed one, meaning they all are leaders of their group

the problem is this, unlike CIS and TR those teams arent capable of making it to big events thru other regions, riot knows what they are doing they did it very good with LoL

YES GREAT IDEA LETS KILL EVERY OTHER REGION. man the top 5 of NA and EMEA is enough, the 6th of emea or na isnt gonna do much damage anyways and probably barely place top 8. its a waste of audience and diversity.
24 teams of wich 5/6 are NA and 5/6 EMEA
and give the rest 12 to 14 teams the slots.
u dont realize that one slot for a region is very bad (if its a big one) and that there is gonna be many regions in valorant. in vct 2022 we might have 10 regions instead of 7 with oceania, india and india joining

also the format sucks, why not just have a 8 team single elim. if 2 insame teams get into the same group its very unfortunate

masters will have 4 groups of 4 teams double elim
with a 4 team single elim bracket in the end
seeding is actually huge since only first place makes it out. my guess for seed one is top 2 NA ( sen and 100T) first EMEA and first Korea

6 or 8, I hope u mean in a 24 team tournament otherwise what are you smoking?
but yeah true keep them together

all 3 teams crushing opponents, hope they can at least get a game in last chance qualifier against maybe jp or china

0/8

NA finishes all top 3

totoro gaming (china) won 5.4k dollars last tournament not 54k

u can watch them bro

they already play the game since its out just not on chinese servers. u can see there is a decent amount of chinese tournaments already been held

well phrase you sentence better next time lol
anyways china alread had some tournaments this year its just not officially out I think they play it over VPN. but i didnt hear about a circuit to qualify yet so thats still in question

yes ur right they were literally one fight away from berlin, won on split after 4 consecutive clutches of gambit, came back on icebox even tho jamppi was copletlty off. liquid is at least 4th/5th EMEA

wenn val releases in val officially yeah

they have potential to be the biggest and strongest region, just like in LoL

i mean its hard to say playing against tier 3 region (at iceland they were maybe they improved now)

Cripsy is better

And asuna, yay, soulcas scream lakia zeek wardell sick shahzam dapr naTs chronicle. He isnt even top 10 dude

He meant the differnce to ozher teams. Also fdota has to big money price pool

Its not like he was gettintg set up by them perfectly

It was because of cpvid. The initial plan was to have 16 teams but they only couldve taken 10 to rejkjavik becausr of corona. Next year it will be even more hopefully

:(

i mean escharts will count all streams together anyways

its not that low they are literally all on the same level its so hard to tell, vision strikers deff has the potential to get 3rd but also to get rolled by heavy fraggers like smb, envy or gambit

ye but he is talking bout regions, its irritating since 3 regions might aswell be like 20 million people and 5 pro teams
wich means that alone isnt really an argument

ok
