Which 2 orgs would you remove from each region

Given that it's a possibility that Riot will remove some 'partnered' slots from their franchise system in 2027, which orgs do you think will be removed in each region?
(Assume it's 8 partnered and 4 ascension for the purpose of this post)

I would do something like this:

EMEA:
-GX
-NAVI (Then implement a tier 2 CIS league)

AMER:
-C9
-FUR/MIBR

APAC:
-PRX (might be a hot take, but speaking purely from an org standpoint they're very small)
-DFM/ZETA (I love tuning in to VCLJP every now and again, but I think there's just not enough talent at the moment to justify 2 tier one slots)

G2, GE, TE, FNC
SEN, DRX, FPX, VITALITY

EMEA:
GX
NAVI

AMER:
C9
FUR

PAC:
ZETA
GE

CN:
JDG
WOL (bro no one wants an actual sports organization to own an E-SPORTS TEAM ffs)

Americas: MiBR, EG
EMEA: GiantX, Navi
APAC: GE, Zeta

These orgs have only done disservice to their own fan bases

How do you guys judge who to get removed? Purely by roster results?

GE if removed will be replaced by an Indian org fosho

Americas: Cloud9, Mibr/Furia
EMEA: Apeks, GiantX
PAC: GE, Secret
CN: All Gamers, NOVA

Americas: SEN, G2
EMEA: FNC, VIT
CN: EDG, BLG
Pacific: T1, PRX

sentiluls, clown9, n0vi, lulquid, g0ng, truck1

Eg + kru or c9
tl + gx or koi
Ge and zeta or team secret or drx maybe
all gamers and titan esports

Tyloo AG, C9 Furia, RRQ GE, KOI Giant

GE needs to be gone so an actual indian org can finally give india a chance. fraud ass CEO

We don't have the full story as an audience, but I'm trying to go off of mainly how their management has been. But also things like how much success they've had, how much they lean in to the content side of things, how much money they've invested etc etc, basically the things Riot were looking for in 2023 when they were initially signing the partner deals

Apeks are an ascension team

EMEA:

TS (I love TS but with how bad and disappointing they have consistently been, I think they're more likely to be removed than GE)

CN:
JDG
AG

GE fucked up the roles again?

Oh sorry, Mister "Coach" with years of experience, Sorry juvenile the head coach doesn't have more brain than you do.

Fucked up roles, A Guy who plays Duelist can play the Best sentinal role too, PatrickWHO was 30+ every fucking game in his 6 months of career in PRO, this guy literally just started playing a year ago and Already went pro.

Within 6 months of his pro career, go ahead and take a look at why he's the lead duelist. That guy destroyed the whole pH scene alone. By far the best duelist in PH and Chances are if he can get comfortable in T1 he WILL be one of the top duelists in APAC

Now what else, Kr1stal not IGLing?

KellyS Does great micromanaging which Kr1stal does not, Kr1stal can focus more on his Gameplay and play more harder, His performance even with IGLing was great imagine with little calls.

KellyS was IGL because Juveline prefers micro managing calls more, which is the best thing a IGL can do.

What else? You keep shitting on GE, as if you've got nothing better to do. Love to see you whine and cry

Amer: c9 eg/lev

Emea: Koi / GX

eg, furia, gx, bbl, ge

i dont think that anyone else in apac should get removed

AMER: EG, NRG
CN: AG, TYL,
EMEA: KOI
PAC: None

Clown 9 & EG

emea: heretics, koi
amer: loud, eg
apac: dfm, global
cn: idk bro

C9 and EG/LEV
KOI and APKS

i see, thanks!
i have to say, NAVI had some S+ pieces of content like hype videos, announcment videos. The rest is not that interesting (there are exceptions), but those 2 types are the best among all VCT.
Main point: they apply good effort even though it might not be as visible and overshodowed because of results\mismanagment (i agree that trajectory of that looks terrible right now).

also i really don't want to be disrespectful to orgs\fans but i really see much less good stuff from some orgs like BBL, KOI, GX, Vitality. TH. Maybe it's same as why many don't see NAVI stuff - you have to follow\subscribe to them to see it.

Americas: 2G and EG (lol)
EMEA: KOI and APEKS
APAC: ZETA and Global
CN: oh god there's like six answers, but JDG and AG. I really wish Attacking Soul Esports' full roster would have made it into franchising.
