Tarik shares idea about own Valorant League in response to crypto throwers in ranked

sportskeeda.com:

Crypto gambling in Valorant ranked has been a hot topic of conversation among top streamers in recent days. On his most recent stream, Tarik shared the idea of a professional league for the game administered by him and a team as an alternative to the official ranked system.

After reacting to professional Valorant player tdawgg's video about exposing crypto betting and intentional game throwing, Tarik's answer to the problem was a separate league that would exclude crypto gamblers who deliberately pave the way for the opposition to win. This idea of his comes days after a tweet he made about creating a "high elo discord" to avoid scammers gaining traction on social media.

For those out of the loop, crypto throwing is the act of intentionally getting into a streamer's team, as they play ranked — or bribing someone playing in that squad — to deliberately lose the match to win a bet placed on a crypto gambling website. Many Valorant streamers have pointed out this problem recently as the practice is more common in the higher ranks.

After watching tdawgg's exposé on multiple people who did the same, the former Counter-Strike player turned popular Valorant streamer "Tarik" Celik expressed his interest in kick-starting an alternate league. This creation would only have players from higher ranks who would be vetted by professionals to ensure game-throwing for cryptocurrencies isn't a problem.

Clearly spit-balling, the Turkish-American streamer came up with the idea of having an invite-only process for this hypothetical league. Players who are part of a franchise team or have a contract with a tier-1 organization would automatically be eligible to participate in it:
