And that's my original thought about Fourth region, due to Riot's abandonment of CIS after Russo-Ukraine War. That could do well for competive scene for both region, as CN is the only region that secondary teams could use two imports with top league team could only use one. Imports of CN Ascensions had been called “mercenary” on Chinese forum, as if one team has promoted to league, they had to make one import leave, which had made the tregady of JDG (although they were not promoted but being bought out from RA)

NebularCarina [#3]why would the chinese talent want to play with a bunch of CIS bums tho, would be a waste of a region
but till now Chinese talents have still yet been enough to fill a league
nihso [#2]mercenaries is crazy.
Also I think riot wants to do nothing with Russia until way after the war ends.
the war aint ending.
tinyVALORANTwatcher [#4]but till now Chinese talents have still yet been enough to fill a league
true, but also they havent had nearly as much time yet, better to give them time to develop the talent.
Doesnt make sense to merge all of Russia with CN
The majority of people living in russia dont have a playable ping to the CN servers.
I talked about it before but I do think the only realistic (yet very messy) solution would be to split Russia into regions (if you dont give them their own t2 league back).
Yes it'd probably get abused but the country is just too large to be slapped onto existing regions (ping wise).

CIS once had its own secondary league before the war, even equal as EU.
but doesn't like Valve, Riot appears to be faithful to the United States government's sanctions policy, Riot had banned some account from Iran to play LoL.
In secondary leagues, Riot said that there shouldn't be more than two foreigners of the subdivision in a squad. But how could be really enforced in EU？

A Russian bum literally solo carried a team to a Masters this year
Upstander123 [#12]This could be an idea, but then a bunch of cis players currently in emea would be up in arms.
Maybe Riot can grandfather these Russians, making them still native in EMEA
