APAC in franchising

#1

chloeburbank

the only apac team to get a slot would be bleed, rest of the spots would be taken by EU and NA orgs that will try and shift to APACA, dogshit ass system rito

Man, he is just speculating and even if international orgs come what is the problem in that as long as they are using local talent to build a roaster.

And whats the problem exactly? The players will still be from APAC but backened by a bigger and richer org. SEA orgs are dogshit, X10 literally scammed their players.

agree with the first part but X10 is not even considered a big org in Thailand.

the problem with this is larger than esports, it means that riot is allowing foreign orgs to come in and run the region without having an intrinsic interest in local talent and the local scene because they are only in it for the easy slot. it means that local orgs will basically have no chance to grow and become bigger and to stop being dogshit like X10 were because at this point, they are no competition for the bigger and richer foreign orgs. I get that it can be kinda cringe to say this and get more political into it but, this is literally the same in concept as colonialism, just on a smaller scale. I'm not saying if this happens, then it will literally be the return of colonialism because it won't, it's just a video game, but in concept, it is the same thing.

although I do agree that it is good for the players, it is not good for the scene as a whole

It's good for the players in the short time, in the long run i think it's better to invest on local orgs.

Imo franchising is just so bad for VCT circuit. Let companies maybe from ESL or Blast do it if they even enter the game.

XIA, Bleed, Secret, Talon, EDG, DRX, DK, Zeta, and CR are all wealthy and can outbid Western orgs
As well, I honestly don’t think it would be a bad thing to see a team like PRX bought out by a bigger org like Alliance, they deserve bigger paychecks then they are currently getting

In every way, International orgs are better for the scene as long as they are using local talent.

higher salary, better coaching staff and better ecosystem

Rito should not introduce frenchise in challengers!
Or
They can just introduce 1 more league for every 3 region fighting for 1 slot from every region(americas, Europe, Apac).
This will not effect viewership also better for fair play otherwise domestic league will not be interesting.
