Pokimane slams organizers for imbalanced squads in Valorant Series
Pokimane berated the organizers for having a major skill disparity between the competing squads. The event rules state that the teams can only have two Immortal ranked players. But she pointed out that many squads included three, maybe even four Immortal players. Along with that, she couldn’t wrap her head around why the organizers would let this slide for such an event.
“Some teams are dumb. Some teams just have three or sometimes it even freaking looks like they have four, and I don’t understand how this got passed the Rivals team and the Riot team.”
