Still waiting for the arrival @amyxcn though ?

But right now, Acend is not a franchised team, that much is clear. However, they can still take part in the 21 Challenger Leagues. The Challenger League will give every single participating team a chance to represent their region on the big stage. Acend can very well compete their way up the ladder. EMEA winners from the Challenger Leagues will be able to compete in the Ascension Tournament. Winners of Ascension can eventually make their way to VCT, where they will also compete against franchised teams. Acend is a well-known squad and has upset potential to win it all. Bencb's statement could prove correct if the team prepares and beats the Challenger League counterparts. However, they will still need a year to compete in the VCT after winning the Ascension tournament. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Edited by Abu Amjad Khan × Feedback Thank You!

We re determined to build a powerhouse Acend CEO disappointed over exclusion from Valorant EMEA partnership program
By Kushal Bhattacharyya Modified 22 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Acend failed to make it to the Valorant partnership program in VCT 2023 (Image via Sportskeeda) The CEO of Acend Club, Benjamin "Bencb" Rolle recently posted a video sharing his thoughts on not having secured a slot in the upcoming Valorant partnership program. Acend is a very familiar name to VCT viewers who have been following the game's professional scene from the very beginning. It is still a surprise how the organization did not find its way to franchising, which will soon be a huge part of the VCT ecosystem, starting from next year onwards. Acend was the first ever professional team to win a Valorant Champions tournament back in 2021. Despite all their efforts, the team has not been selected to be a part of the franchising. CEO Bencb has shared his feelings regarding this news through a video.Acend Club CEO shares thoughts on not getting picked up for Valorant partnership program
