wtf is this? Can anyone confirm this? Only 400 people in a esports megacity like Shanghai and country as big as China? Second and the last masters event of the year? WTF bro! Grow some balls riot, go big for once ffs. This is why this esports will never top CS.

Marcedes Benz Arena but that's only for the playoffs tho. That's a 18k venue which is respectable. But how do you go from 400 to 18000 during the same tournament, specially when all the home teams might be playing in the 400 audience venue only? Shambolic

horrible planning from riot should have been the whole event or at least find a venue with like 9k+ for group stages

im pretty sure they are using the same stage as the CN regional venue so im not surprised its small, they might have a bigger one for playoffs

But that's very stupid. It's the biggest val event in china this far, they hosted the launch in china event in a bigger venue i swear. I will be incredibly upset if this news is true.

they are trying to create a playoff atmosphere which will benefit them in the long term is my guess

bruh i understand that but that's a massive disparity. 400 people? In china? There will be more people roaming on the street in front of the venue.

Hmm I know that the later parts of the tournament are in the Mercedes Benz arena which seats 18000, theres no way though that only 400 seats are available for before then, maybe typo and they actually meant 4000
