it's all about representation and giving all regions equal opportunity. KR/JP 1 slot each is basically like APAC (north) 2 slots, the region will be more competitive after CN joins. tbh I think 3 BR/LATAM slots is more problematic.
Bernard [#4]APAC have alot of tough teams
if jp joins apac region, we're not gonna see jp reps at the international level anymore xD

natural selection
mueeza [#12]japan should emerge with korea
Japan will literally get eliminated in the groups of the quals, KEKW
Bosher [#14]Japan will literally get eliminated in the groups of the quals, KEKW
but if they emerge with apac, there will be a huge ping diff

maybe they do lan when covid and international restrictions loosen up
Kaikyrc [#9]Why is the 3 slots in br/latam problematic?
Because i think they're not as good nor as big as EMEA that also has 3 slots. I don't see why they gave one more slot to BR/LATAM instead of APAC (south) or NA.

you understand that br and latam are 2 separated regions, and emea is only one, do you?
and the latam went to the semifinals of champions, and apac didn't

Loud valorant masters iceland: 2nd
Leviathan did great for their first international too: 5 - 6th
Kru and Loud had a tough group and less preparation for the matches, they still showed great matches.
There is no sense in what you're saying, you will see what Latam/Br will show you in this Champion
And i assure you America's franchise will be stronger than Asia's

Franchise will show how stupid you are

So since this year they are different regions they deserve more but next year since they are gonna be the same the deserve the same? What's the difference just the way of calling it? how does that make it fair for EMEA

Literally this, even though I'm actually scared cause George Geddes report said there was going to be between 6 and 8 NA teams, so if it's 8 Br and LATAM are fucked, if it's 6 they are still fucked 2 and 2 only
