Riot has already started to lay out their plans for Valorant's competitive scene, including three tiers of competition. Small, medium, and large tournaments with different prize pool amounts will help Riot bring in third-party organizers to hold tournaments.
"Our primary focus early on will be forming partnerships with players, content creators, tournament organizers, and developers," ‘Magus’ Rozelle, senior director of global esports at Riot Games said in April. "Unlocking them to help us to build the Valorant ecosystem.“
Nearly 3 million players checked in to play in Valorant's closed beta, which is seen as a huge success for the creators of League of Legends.
