not biased at all totally objective

RT #DFMWIN

how can you be bad with meiy and akame on your team

games not over and last seed never meant you couldnt make a run

DFM is literally playing good early rounds and they keep selling advantages
should be like 8:6 instead of 11:3

how

so many advantaged rounds that they just lose through small misplays in the late round

hes trolling nothing happened

drop the SSN, credit card front and back, and I'll fix it for you

they will win it all

bros living in a diff reality

i think aim wise kaajak clears on every agent
zekken has better movement on raze and neon

dw once potter stops trolling with the clove shit and puts him on cypher vyse kj again we will see him back in form

not just culture but overall quality of life, wealth, and other social factors

good riddance

I mean its really only a time game. Your country has a population at China's level, and even if other factors mean that many can't play valorant for a living, it is more than enough to catch up imo.

Probably the most convincing counterargument yet, but I still stand by my points.
If you are in esports you are there to win. I am all for representation, but you can't have representation without qualifications. There is a bare minimum standard you must meet. GE supposedly ran one of the largest player trialing programs to date before this season. I'm sure their staff looked into south asia. Surely they would like to sign a south asian player, but clearly none were up to their standards. GE is already a struggling team. If they can build a system that works maybe then they can look to incorporate rising indian talent that meets standards and level up the scene. But getting that working system is the top priority, and if you can't do it with the top picks from your scouting there is no way you can do it with the players that didn't make the cut.

literally what i've been saying
GE fans are overreacting so hard

Singapore isn't a bad server at all either way? Nearly all of the SEA talent plays there and they seem fine.

mb bro but they dont have a dutch player either
point stands

Horrible management and talent scouting. Bad coaching for years. Plenty of reasons why. JP has plenty of talent, but they aren't bad because they lack it for the same reasons. GE has the players to win, its all about incrementally building a better system and the management clearly can't figure out how to do that.

Maybe that's an issue with their talent scouting and management. And you won't be winning more with subpar indian players.

??? India plays on the APAC server region. They can scrim every APAC team. They play the same soloqueue as JP and KR pro players.

VIT: zero french
TH: zero spanish
KC: zero french
APK: zero norwegians
TL: zero americans
GX: zero spanish
KOI: zero spanish
LEV: zero argentinians

I don't hear anywhere near as much crying about national representation for these orgs and their fans.

Mfw indians hate GE owner for simply recruiting the best talent he could find because he knows that indian players just aren't good enough for tier 1.
Every org has winning as the priority.
Representing the nation comes after you can assemble a roster capable of producing good results.

premier to ascension to tier 1
go for it

tdlr: most orgs will sign talented players over weak players from their country, only GE fans will cry about it

vitality: zero french
heretics: zero spanish
KC: zero french
TL: zero americans

Look at EMEA? Vitality is a french team with zero french players, and nobody is crying about it. KC has zero french players as a french org. Both these orgs have signed french players before and dropped them for better talents. Heretics has zero Spanish players. They tried to sign spanish talent before as well. If your nation just fails to produce good talent, do not blame the org. This same thing has happened in EMEA so many times yet GE is the only org getting flamed for making the correct choices.

The only difference with APAC teams is that language barriers exist. JP and KR teams build nationally cohesive rosters because the staff and management don't operate with English but rather Japanese and Korean. It is much harder to add players who don't speak the language. Brazilian teams build Brazilian rosters for the same reason. In Europe every team and player speaks English. On Global Esports everyone speaks English, including the Indian players that they tried signing.

Additionally APAC teams with national rosters actually have talented players from their nation. In APAC leaderboards the top ranks are full of Koreans and Japanese players. Of course they will get signed because 1, the language is the same, and 2, they actually have talent. The same cannot be said of India.

What basis do you have to say that putting more indians together will somehow make them good players? It is not like GE isn't trialing them. They went through trials and clearly didn't make the cut. The were tested and the results were worse than other APAC regional talents.

GE has the lowest round win to loss differential out of every single team that did not make playoffs. Overall -15 is not bad. The team clearly struggled to close out BO3's, but the team was definitely not as bad as the win loss record indicated.

Yes, why would you give a spot to a player just because he is from a certain country. That is a luxury only afforded to countries that produce enough native talent. The goal is to win, not to give out diversity hire spots.
The best players should be given the chance. If india cannot produce a single competitive player at the tier 1 level do not blame the org.

it legit doesn't matter if they play with other indians, they still clearly were not up to standard

idk what happened to him
he was insane during kickoff

yeah idk what he's saying
yeah its not the best itw but its pretty decent

yes flashback duelist was strong
lwk prefer free1ng on sentinel, he was frying back in CN on it

yeah but when free1ng fills viper its somehow viper jail because his sova is allegedly trash
make up ur mind dude

one more gamer needs to be signed

which ones are worse?
even if it isn't the weakest it is one of the weakest in the world, easily

pay off a doctor to diagnose him with heart problems or something

he's going off the eye test to determine if they can fit in tier one but forgot that the vctsa scene is by far the weakest one in the world
any mid-low radiant peak would probably farm
all these players have been trialed by GE and better options were taken

3/5 on two of your examples is barely a majority atp
GE already tried with indian players and they could not hold on at all
this is easily GE's best year yet since they at least got some wins in and qualified to EWC
and this is in spite of the coaching situation and the patrickwho visa situation and the patrickwho being terrible under pressure situation
extremely unlucky year for the team

deryeon had far more experience playing in t2 and ascension which certainly helped him play under pressure
patrickwho had basically no experience by comparison, playing for a single split in regional challengers before getting dropped into t1
didn't help that his visa delays led to people acting like he would come in next split and be the savior of the team, adding more pressure on an inexperienced player

nah he just had weak mental and crumbled under pressure
i lwk think that he is a promising player who just needed a mental coach

its not toxic its true
india as a subregion is just worse than the rest of APAC

not even close
furia is way worse
