I'm just going to use 2022 n forward as a metric, as covid made 2021 very weird for locations
22 Masters 1 was in Europe
22 Masters 2 was in Europe
22 Champs was in Europe
(Riot decides to make up for this it looks like)
23 Masters 1 (lockin) was in Americas
23 Masters 2 was in APAC
23 Champs was in Americas
(Riot realizes APAC hasn't gotten much)
24 Masters 1 was in Europe
24 Masters 2 was in APAC
24 Champs was in APAC
Likely Riot is going to have next year be a full europe year, with a masters in Americas, as the trend seems to be that every year one of the 3 regions gets left out, but they get reintroduced next year, and get a full double year the one after that
I am not a big Europe knower, but Katowice has been pretty good for CS events (i've heard), and that Istanbul arena and production went SO HARD, so they might go back
For America, we got an LA champs, and Brazil got Lockin, and now Mexico is getting Ascension, so I'm thinking maybe an East Coast Masters?
If they don't want to do the obvious NYC thing and put it where the US Open (tennis) is and where the first Fortnite world cup was, another idea might be Boston. There was a CS lan hosted in that ice hockey arena, and might be able to book TD garden for the top 4 venue
Otherwise I would think LATAM would get an event, and again I am not a knower so lmk any good Latam locations
What do u think/what cities do you think would be best for hosting events?
