an idea for the asia masters slots

since theres so many people talking about the allocated slots given to regions such as japan in masters, id like to give a take on what could(?) possibly be an idea for slot allocations, granted if ping isn't an issue for this
korea (i think korea has done enough to be considered a standalone region) - 2
japan - 1/2 (with the viewership japan has, i think at the minimum 1 or 2 slots should be fine)
china - 1 (with how new china is to valorant and the amount of potential china has, i think its fine if riot wants to hand out slots to china or even more than 1 for promotion)
far east (china, japan, siberia, mongolia, possibly hk/tw?, qualify into masters as a play-in) - 1/2
apac (sea, oceania) - 2/3
while i dont think this is the best of what could be done, based off what others have said (benkai for instance said china is not very good so far, along with japan) unless it can be proven otherwise that regions such as china are capable of being a standalone region, or if having this style will kill off viewership for regions like japan

id like to hear what you think though and if you think this is a bad idea or allocation, do you think the slots and regions are fine as is? or should we wait a while longer for better results before coming to a conclusion

I think for the most part everything is fine, except for the China slots. Sea getting 3 makes sense because of how man countries are in it, and Japan(2) makes sense because it has large audience. But China makes no sense, what have they proven to get 2 slots? If you want to say they have large population, that wouldn’t make sense either since there’s India which is my second problem. I am not some Indian fan, but it makes no sense how the VCC was given only one slot when it includes India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Nepal. I would give China only one slot and the give the other slot to either Korea(because they have proven themselves) or to the VCC which although haven’t proven anything, they do have a large scene developing + number of countries they have in the VCC.

they haven't done much, but im thinking riot will want to promote valorant to china in the same sense they promoted korean organizations such as damwon through a support program, but in china's case it would be slots
i completely forgot about south asia though, but i think 1 slot would be fine too and its fair for china to have 1 slot

Yea, I don’t really mind one slot for VCC but it is kinda annoying to see China get 2 slots for no reason, but whatever, it is what it is
