From the creation of franchising to the road to Champions, there exists a lot of tense competition.

There are a lot of ways through which we can watch a professional match. One, you can go to the arenas where these matches take place. But if you are not close, and prefer the comfort of your house, there are tons of live streams as well. But, the entirety of the tournament may likely be not available through just streams. For understanding standings, schedules, and many other interesting data, one would have to navigate a bit in the online space. So, to alleviate this challenge Riot Games are bringing its very own eSports hub.

According to the latest reports, Valorant is developing this exquisite system into the game as we speak. This would be an ideal move to bring competitive data and live stream under one roof. Though this is a great move, an obstacle for the developers is: what will happen to Twitch drops? For those who are unaware, Valorant offers Twitch drops for major events after the audience completes a certain level of watch hours. One also needs to tune in during the events to get these.
