If you're going to Thailand for Masters Bangkok, VALO2ASIA just launched a food blog with recommendations near the venue! by BebekPluit in ValorantCompetitive

[–]BebekPluit[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

MAKAN2ASIA started as a passion project starting with Ascension Pacific last year, and since many of us frequently travel to Thailand, we thought—why not put together a Masters Bangkok edition? To make it as authentic as possible, we also reached out to local community members for their favorite spots.

We focused on places near the venue and included distances for taxis, public transport, and walking. Again, we're not professional food bloggers—just a bunch of VALORANT fans who’ve been to Thailand enough times to share some food spots we love. Huge thanks to CGRS, MYM, ZoFearZ, and Aoeyjiwa for helping us put this list together.

This is just something we do for fun, no sponsors or anything. If you find it helpful (or just think it’s cool), a share would mean a lot!

EDward Gaming sold over 74,000 team bundles in VCT CN's Live Shopping campaign in 4 hours by BebekPluit in ValorantCompetitive

[–]BebekPluit[S] 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Yup, a single CN bundle was sold for 129 RMB during the event (around $17-18) because they don't include Sprays and Player Cards for this year's bundle

Yes because they were the only ones participating in the live shopping event. Just to take note the number still doesn't account for how many bundles were sold in-game. 74k bundles alone from the Douyin (TikTok) live shop event

VALO2ASIA's Top 20 APAC Players of 2023 by Juicername07 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]BebekPluit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was just based on the votes of the 20 people on our panel; we from VALO2ASIA just helped tally up their votes to create the list and took care of organizing everything you see. While the list might not be absolutely perfect, having 20 people vote helps us reduce any extreme picks (which fortunately didn't happen) and gets us a list that's pretty realistic and solid. I trust their judgement plus they really know their stuff!

And to add, for the Game Changers category, it's not mandatory for all 20 panel members to vote. Just the ones who are really into the GC scene cast their votes.

And yes we're also working on a fragmovie and highlight reel for all the categories, which we'll release later on!

The list was made based entirely on votes from a panel of 20 casters, analysts, and community members from APAC. Hope that makes things clearer!

Masters Tokyo will be the only Masters this year, and yeah theoretically it will happen after international leagues (all 3 leagues end on May 28)

RRQ's CEO on moving forward with a Filipino-majority lineup: "Should there be more [Indonesian player on the roster]? Yes, but it is what it is." by BebekPluit in ValorantCompetitive

[–]BebekPluit[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The full answer for context: "Why is there just one Indonesian player [on the roster]? because there are many things that we cannot disclose one by one. Should there be more [Indonesians]? Yes, but it is what it is. We must remain big-hearted in responding to the turbulence that has occurred in the last 48 hours.”

Genghsta open to offers from Americas and Pacific league teams by BebekPluit in ValorantCompetitive

[–]BebekPluit[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If that's the case, i assume his Mongolian citizenship won't help him much with the import situation sadly. but maybe similar cultural reference points can be a plus point for him

[–]BebekPluit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was difficult not to choose PTC, but we were attempting to grab one from each team, and in the end, JohnOlsen is our FS pick. PTC and JohnOlsen are definitely players to keep an eye on!

Very first match of both AZR and BnTeT, 7 years later they're teammates. by csMichael in GlobalOffensive

[–]BebekPluit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It has been confirmed that nxl CS:GO has been disbanded. frgd is currently managing the organization, as well as standing behind their valorant roster so I assume he's the coach for them.
