Ludwig x Tarik Official Invitational revealed for Valorant in 2023
Ludwig is one of the biggest YouTube streamers out there. He has hosted quite a few events in the past. On the other hand, Tarik is one of the most-watched Valorant content creators. The former CS:GO veteran is now associated with the Sentinels. He also recently hosted an in-game event called ‘Lil Bro Cup’. But now, both of them are going to join hands for an exclusive Valorant competition.
The Tarik X Ludwig Invitational will feature some of the most prominent franchises in the NA region. It will include Tarik’s own Sentinels and other teams like T1, The Guard, and TSM. Additionally, Sentinels and T1 are Valorant-partnered teams who will be competing in the Americas league and the APAC league respectively.
So, before all the major leagues begin, they can be seen in the exclusive invitational. Moreover, there will also be a matchup between Tarik and Ludwig. While Tarik will be seen captaining the OfflineTV team, Ludwig will spearhead Team Mongul Moves. The latter includes pro players like Shroud.
It sure will be an interesting event to watch, especially since most franchises have rebuilt their entire roasters this season. The event will be held from January 14-15. You can watch it on Tarik’s Twitch channel and Ludwig’s YouTube channel.
Fans are quite excited about the event
Although a Valorant League has been kick-started for this year by Knights, this specific event is not broadcasted. That is, the Valorant Challengers League is underway at the moment but it is not telecasted on any platforms by official authorities because there are tons of teams participating.
Looks like I have something to watch this weekend

Many fans were seen demanding a Sentinels vs TSM matchup, as both the teams used to be rivals in the early seasons of the game. They have not met each other in a competition for a long time. Also, because TSM was unable to qualify for the Masters.
Do the right thing and have Sentinels vs TSM as the opening match
