They should only get 2 slots. No hate
Btw no one asked.
Think of it this way, if all 3 teams of Thailand can beat the number 1 team of Vietnam fairly dominantly, why should Thailand lose a spot for being strong? Its like making Europe or NA have only 1 team because they are the strongest. Yes having more teams from a region will grow them more, but in SEA where teams already scrim around alot since we are all nearby, giving Vietnam ( a region that has not proven itself at all tbh ) the same amount of privilege as other 3 Slots competitors is like throwing meat at a wall and hoping it sticks.
This is not Korea or Japan where the only edge a team can get over everyone else is through international experience, SEA have more than enough teams and international experience divided around each other to spread that experience / level of plays around as weaker teams will have to adjust themselves or be forcefully pulled up by those scrims
SA have 2 slots, which furthers add to my point. SA is a region that while have alot of potential cause like i mean your just look at them, 1.4bil population and most pc fps players in SA play valorant, so while they are still fairly weak now, if they get that PRX-esque team ( in terms of dominance ) , it will most likely propel them into relevancy never seen before for the region in esports.
Vietnam which is roughly on the same level as SA have 1 more slots, which does not make much sense when u have 1 slot region like OCE who would need it more as they are far away from mainland SEA, meaning they need that 1 slot much, much more than Vietnam ( as they will gain experience from it and return to OCE stronger and hopefully pass that along ).
This stuff is absurd
Vietnam top-3 didn't change between stages, Cerberus, Fancy, Baam will get more points than some stronger teams who didn't make it to APAC once (Full Sense, Secret, No Namers)
Imagine these VN teams go to LCQ and Full Sense doesn't
This system benefits weak region farmers and doesn't benefit competitive leagues like Thailand, Indonesia
Are you capable of understanding how bad this distribution is?
Full Sense get nothing but 17th-20th places in APAC get >20 points?
I didn't even bring EU/CSGO into conversation, chill out and take some fresh air
Respect other people with whom you're having conversation, instead of going full zombie mode and throwing random slurs
