Champions 2022 had the worst regional slots

There has been some discussion over spots and whether the fact all region receive equal spots is good or bad. But surely it cannot be as bad as the absolute mess that is champs 2022. If anything we should be glad that format was not kept.

This is later proven that some of the regions , when combined into a massive super region are outcompeted significantly (Sea,JP,BR,Latam) by their counterparts . Obviously some region became better in the franchising era but lets not pretend there's not a lot of free team in 2022

The slots in champs 2022:

Emea: 3 slots
thats ok but imo they need 1 more

Na :3 slots
Thats fair

SEA(APAC without KR JP for those of you who dont know) : 3 slots
Why??? After franchising the only time there are more than 1 SEA team qualifying to international event is champions 2024. And guess what? None of the sea team made it through the group stage. Give that slot to KR

JP : Guaranteed 1 slot...
The only time JP qualify post-Franchising is champions 2023. They did not win a single game internationally after franchising. It is pure lunacy guaranteeing them 1 slot. As per 2024 all JP team are at the bottom tier of pacific

Kr : 1 slot
Are you seriously telling me SEA can field 3 times as many competitive teams as KR?

East asia(JP+KR+Cn) : 1 slot. Fair enough,CN was way worse back then

BR : 1 slot
Questionable as per 2024 all 3 Brazilian teams are the some of the worst teams in Americas. But Loud was excellent at the time so fair enough.

Latam : 1 slot
Eh good enough. Mind you as per franchising Latam was outcompeted by NA and Brazil(2023) with a total of 1 international win and that is after hijacking Brazil's best star.

South America LCQ : 2 slots?
Wtf? This is pure lunacy. As per franchising there has never been more than 2 SA in a masters/champions. why would they need 4? Give the slot to Na/emea

To put this into perspective this is roughly what the teams will be if the same slots are kept in champs 2024.

As an apac fans. They should have 3 max. Prx got 2nd place in the prev tourney and drx has always been solid. But whodf needs boom esports there? Probably crashies as he got the funniest ace in his life.
