Many fans are looking forward to attending the tournament in person and seeing who will become the best of the best with their own eyes. However, various problems with the tickets have left a large portion of the community disappointed, and here's why.

Valorant Champions Seoul Ticket Shortage
People are currently posting comments on multiple platforms about having trouble purchasing tickets for Valorant Champions. Many players blamed Interpark for the inconvenience, one of the major ticketing websites.
As a Korean living outside of Korea, I tried using the Korean site. I have all the accounts and phone numbers, but it's blocked outside of Korea. Also, I tried the global for presale, but everything was blank due to auto-buying through the Korean site only. Interpark is so bad.

There were two versions of this website for fans to purchase tickets: the Korean site and the global one. The latter is for international fans, and the Korean one is available for anyone with a Korean ID and phone number. However, it seems like both of them failed on many occasions.

Valorant Champions Seoul Ticket Issue
Some people reported that Interpark blocked their IP address when they tried to sign in and get tickets. Even those who managed to get through the site and select a ticket were met with error codes that made it impossible to complete the purchase.
For repeated access or abnormal access, service will no longer be available. I can't even check out once I have a seat. Terrible ticketing system/venue selection, Riot.

Unfortunately, Riot has not responded to any of these complaints yet, but fans remain hopeful that this issue will be fixed soon - if not now, at least before the next event. Have fun and good luck on your next adventure! For more information about Valorant, you can check out this article.
