since they have only 1 slot each for champions, 2 more I think is pretty justified.

that doesnt sound very fair. they should only get one spot imo since the same thing is happening is the East Asia LCQ and they only have one slot between 3 different countries. this second slot that the South American LCQ gets should have gone to the winner of masters 2.

You realize that south america + central america contains a lot more than 3 countries?

you realize that china is the most populated country in the world and they have never had a slot in any of the past tournaments?

You realize that it's because valorant is not approved in their country and they're playing it unofficially?

does that change the fact that it is unfair that SA LCQ has 2 slots whereas East Asia's LCQ only has one?

It's because Asia has 4 confirmed spots already right? KR(DRX), JP(ZETA/NTH), and PRX and XEXIA. How much more do you want??????? 2 more form each LCQs will suffice.
SA meanwhile has only 2 confirmed slots, 2 more from LCQ. Is it that difficult to udnerstand?

Stop being greedy and look how many slots Asia already has before the LCQ.

there is a higher population and more countries in asia than the entire of both south and north america. i think its fair considering that there are many teams that belong there. Also, im not saying that i want the spot from the SA LCQ to go to the east asia lcq, i suggested that they should give the second slot to the winners of masters 2 because it means that an extra team from a certain region can go and it makes the event more exciting.

why the fuck are you still talking about populations when it doesnt fucking matter. BRO LOOK AT EMEA theres 2.2 billion people in that region and they still get 3 slots only, its not a matter of populations brothaaaaa, i suppose you wouldnt mind india and china having their own seperate regions like KR and JP where they could qualify from lmaooo

I'm from Asia and am satisfied with having a total of 6 teams out of 16 teams in Champions from Asia. ( 4 + 2 from LCQ). Anything more that that is really criminal to the FPS community in the rest of the world.

PERIOD.

ok you want to talk populations? talk about india. talk about them bro! they have 59 million less than china yet they have 0 slots. OMG i guess riot doesnt care about population! because it doesnt fucking matter. its all viewership and how developed the esports is in that country. + game population is what matters more in esports because how the fuck would 1.3 billion people play valorant let alone watch it.

it's because KRU finished 3rd on last champions, it used to be 1 slot for LATAM, 2 for BR and 1 for LCQ, they simply took off on of BR slots and threw into the LCQ, it's literally how it went down last year idk why you act like it's a new thing

NA+EU:6

Asia :6

LATAM+BR: 4

tell me where the problem is?
you could argue that Asia gets 1 less slot but it brings a lot of viewiership AND they have proven themselves so far. its not a skill issue in any region and i think latam and br do deserve these number of slots.

Why did you put NA and EU in the same sentence

Should've done this:
Americas - 7
Asia - 6
EMEA - 3
Fair? I don't think so
It's clear bias towards anyone but EMEA

A lot did complain though, especailly about Brazil's 3
EMEA is underrepresented at every event, but it doesn't get better

why risking putting 5 slots for emea if we ended up with like seed 10 or teams with 3+ subs cause most teams in there can't play at international stage?

"Most teams"
Only FPX

I'm not talking just about this season, I'm talking in general btw

Brazil never got 3, just 2... the 3rd one was from LCQ that Australs (LATAM) lost to FURIA in the GF (I'm not dissing them, is just what happened)

you know what i agree with dat, but the emea is just dominated by other esports + csgo and i know the skill level is so high in that region, but riot is a buisness and cares less about that and money than they do about competitive integrity

Dumb,
NA and SA is different continent.
Go back to primary school.

And ASIA is with Australia
Basically 6 for 2 continent. Fair enough.

EMEA playerbase and international success is 2-3x of BR+LATAM
But they have 4 slots and we 3?

SA is indeed has too much if you count like that.
But that doesn't justify you saying riot bias towards emea when riot gives other same.
It's more riot support SA more than any region.

Yes, but a bigger problem here is the 12 team system which SUUUUUUUUUUUCKSSSSSS. 16 is the number.
Teams should just go in 4 groups of 4 all in, no benefits for the first qualified.

Yeah swiss system is better (csgo is a good example) and even if it's not an exclusive system for them, seems like Riot wants to do thing "different" to "not look like cs"

swiss system has been around since 1895, now i dont know about CS being around in 1895 but chess has been around, and has been tried and true for manyyy tournaments since then. i dont see any reason and therefore a problem in implementing this system that has worked for so long. why have 4 random groups which pisses off all the fans and just go with a simple solution? lol

I don't know if i phrased it wrong or you read it really bad.
I wasn't saying that is an exclusive system for cs (that was written literal). I was mentioning that cs tournaments use it and it works. Gotta put things in perspective and CSGO is a shooter, same as valorant, so i was just reinforcing the point that the system works in FPS tournaments.

The second point is just an opinion based on things you can read about "Riot trying to not be CS". Tell riot to implement the simple solution, not me. I'm all for a better system.

Looks like people gets insta triggered always when i mention csgo in my comments.

edit: typo for any "common" misunderstanding.

yea i agree with that then, its just i saw the csgo mention and how they wanted it different from cs and i loved that game too so whatever. mb for misinterpreting
