Leagues full of Imports

Look, I love most of the imports in the Spanish league, I'm gonna be hard rooting for KPI at the Play in and I feel very bad for UCAM. But man having a team with the spanish core win and all the fucking carried feels awesome.

Whatever happens at Ascension, at the very minimum they will have earned respect and right to tryouts in tier 1. Plus they have proven they can beat anyone. Barsa in VCT would be a fucking banger tbh

Barca will funnel VCT money to pay for player salaries & transfers

Barca will sell their VCT spot to gather enough money for a washed football player

Nope, the only thing Barsa likes more than spending money they don't have is competing in 33298337 different things

Yes, maniek and kpzet are great too but the 3 spanish players rising up to the moment is huge. Guardy and Saiz were sharp af and Vorwenn after the rough start on map 1 still getting 81 is crazy while IGLing, really proud of them.

And shoutout to Famsii that was insane

Not every spanish, there's obviously rivalries between spanish teams. That being said it has nothing to do with having spanish players, where have I said that

because looking at this and saying "yeah this is a spanish team" is actually crazy. here in americas a team with 3 latinos is not from latam btw.

It's a Spanish org with a spanish fanbase and Mixwell clout. But yeah we do not have 15 Spanish players for the 3 orgs we have, tf are we supposed to do lmao. We have to hang on to things like the fact that MiniBoo has played in the Spanish league for years. I don't get what you were trying to say with your first post tho but yeah

because mixwell and friends pushed this narrative against LEV since the beginning of the year, this shit about representation and that KRU is the true LATAM team, and meanwhile this mf does not have a single spanish in his team.

LATAM has proven to have the talent and we haven't so it makes sense to ask fro lama players when it actually makes sense. That being said it's natural to root for whichever team has more players of your country. That's exactly the reason I was supporting Barsa instead of UCAM today

in La liga you cheer for the team who has more spanish player aswell?
Because real and barcelona all had international players as their star player, the point is that idgaf about nationalism.

Neither do I lol but I would still rather cheer for the team with more Spanish players

Also football is different, you support your team for deeper reasons

Idk if that much but if they do it right they could attract a massive fanbase indeed. Gotta do it right tho.

Seeing the 3 Spanish players on barca going from actual nobodies to top of the league wasnt something I was expecting going into this year.
Super happy to see Vorwenn grow in general. His old team, Vamonos, was tragic so watching him reach these hights has been satisfying.

And them doing it on a day where KPZET wasnt playing out of his mind is also a great sign, I was a bit worried the team would turn into kpzet and friends during the regular season.

Huge letdown to see Ucam lose though. They were the team I thought was going to win Spain going into the year (had a player poached early on, but I still had a lot of hope). Kpi obviously deserve it given their insane performance all year but man I wish Ucam would go instead of them.

Spain is sending 2 very strong teams to ascension, so its gonna be exciting. (Though dach will win the war of the import regions ;3)

Also fun fact, they actually tried to bench kpzet coming into this split xD

Yup, they actually benched him for a while but ended up going back to him. I imagine is something not related to performance, comms or something no clue but he always looked great individually to me
