i mean the onlyway apac gets good times for matches is if a match is hosted there tbh even london with a very centralised timezone (GMT+2:00) would end up with bas times for APAC; and when it is hosted in APAC the times are horrible for everyone else

not really, at least if it’s in New York people in Pacific can watch in the morning (starting at like 6am in Korea/Japan). if it’s in london then you either have to start super early, which messes things up for Americas viewers, or force Pacific viewers to stay up past midnight

most people in Asia have shit to do during the week at 6-7 am so you might as well say APAC are gonna wake up super early in the morning on weekends if they wanna catch a single match

yeah that’s kinda the point. i’m assuming it’s better for them to wake up a bit early than to stay up late. and if they have to work in the morning then they probably couldn’t afford to stay up late with the london time anyway

right when 30% ( most of all the regions ) i think you should somewhat center your time zone around them. the reason there’s only been 1 event in NA is because how long it takes to get a visa.

Asia has two regions (China and APAC), which are the two largest markets for esports - every seat in Shanghai is fully booked, for example. That means everyone in these regions gets good times, as well as OCE. That's a good solution for a huge proportion of people who are not adequately represented by VLR posters.l

i brought up tokyo because tokyo and LA we’re last year and no one would be upset if another event was held either locations for next year even if recent.

And the situation with loud was just unfortunate, but that’s just a one time thing and dosent happen often.

That is cause those countries have proper channels for event hosting. China is not an argument because yes, it's restrictive, but because it's restrictive, this mustve been on schedule for LOOONG time. Also, Tencent is powerful IN China. Riot has no power on the USA

idk, I think most of the skins just aren't released yet on that client, like the neptune set only recently released, derke said no glitchpop vandal on the chinese client and ata kaptan + another fut player always used the reaver karambit and are now using other knifes for no reason

I didn’t watch Madrid so don’t really know the crowd

madrid was ok. of course they supported the EMEA and latin American teams like that's normal. there were an extraordinarily high amount of Sen fans though which was again expected cause SEn has fans in both Europe and Americas(not saying they don't have fans in APAC but not to the same extent as EU or AM)
the crowd reactions to clutches and stuff like that were pretty good and it was honestly a pretty decent crowd. the best crowd has to be tokyo though cause those dudes really hyped the game regardless of whether it was their favorites or their opponents
