    So I'm guessing we're gonna rotate the Champions location among the 4 regions.
    2024 - Seoul (APAC)
    2025 - Paris (EMEA)
    2026 - China
    2027 - Americas
    2028 - back to APAC again, and so on
    I like this idea Riot, big W.

    suggestion, there should be another ascension s-tier tournament like winner of each ascension region (4 teams from each region) will compete together in single short series(like semis and final) and winner of that series will face VCT champions of that same year, just like UEFA super cup which played between UCL and UEL winner.

    A preview of the Valorant Champions Chongqing 2026:
    The slogan of the competition is "Master, Prentice, Together, Clutch!".
    The MV of the theme song is the story of a player who sended "Recruiting Prentices" and really recruited a prentice, and finally the prentice entered the Valorant Champions under his careful education.
    The 2026 champions skins has two main guns:
    Vandal, means "master"
    Odin, means "Pretence"
    Both main guns have obvious neo-Chinese and kung Fu elements
    The melee is a nunchakus. Yes, nunchakus
    After reaching level 2, the tap action and view are very cool, and the Heave hit is a Kick! A literal kick!
    The important thing is that holding the nunchakus and pressing it twice can make a fist salute, and this view has a third person perspective!
    [A real master will only look at the word "Recruiting Prentices" literally]
