They wanted free league slot for SR btw
Is this true? Ain't no way people are hyping GC up this much.
What Riot is doing with GC is great but it also isn't supposed to be a free pass into VCT. GC players are being given an opportunity to compete at a high level and then ideally advance into the main league if a team picks them up.
And I don't want to hear the excuse that teams are rejecting female players based on gender (what people say happened to Mel) because Riot would swiftly remove those teams from the franchise the same way they forced the previous G2 CEO to step down for partying with Andrew Tate.
Still some ways off from qualifying, although progress is being made.
Nice to see riot relax on the nationality restriction to allow for the top GC team to try and qualify.
I will always respect the teams like SR/G2 for actually attempting to break into the t2 circuit, even if their attempts aren't fruitful.
