They should donate one to Korea or NA I would be happy with both!
inb4 "but it's emea not EU!!". fine, give 1 slot to Turkey, 1 to CIS and 1 for EU.
I think riot they better give slots to Asia as whole continent and not regions SEA, JP, KR, China (in the future) just make an Asia challengers and the best team will qualify same thing for LATAM and BR so they can make sure that the best teams from there can qualify for me it dosen't make sense it's like spliting NA to 3 regions pacific, eastern and central
PS : they already doing that with EMEA (EU, Turkey, CIS) which is good
Asia is literally the largest continent?
SEA has a larger population than NA.
South Asia has a quarter of the world's population and china occupies another fifth.
Korea is a powerhouse in esports and deserves recognition as a separate region.
The physical distance between any two regions is so large that tournaments and games just cannot be played against each other.
EMEA on the other hand is compact and densely filled with servers. Games can be conducted with fair ping with both sides on 50 or less ping.
You're getting me wrong I'm not saying to take slots from Asia, teams they can keep the same number of slots (6 for now without China or India) but all I'm saying make an Asia challengers so the best teams from the continent can qualify cause it's unfair to see 2 teams from Japan that can't compete all i'm say let KR, JP and SEA compete for the slots and the best qualify same thing for LATAM and BR make it a SA (South America) challengers
PS : It's not about population it's about having a competitive teams in Masters/Champions
