Can someone blackmail or just threaten riot??
so riot moves VCT americas from LA to somewhere else??
cuz LA expensive as hell, how the fuck do you expect the scene to be stable with orgs needing to RENT to be able to live there

renting a place isn't the problem. Managing the roster, spending money on correct people and valuing the talents you have is a problem for some teams

i saw a twitter post that even finding and renting offices in berlin is a nightmare, especially for ascension teams

Yes, but it's because of burocratic stuff, need to open a company in Germany and everything which is the nightmare part

I think it would have been a better choice as a city but it wouldn't have been any different for tier 2 teams to move for sure

Barcelona I think actually, but it would have been just as terrible money wise. At least they would have had the arena full tho

Honestly yeah just have in either Canada or Mexico (probably Mexico because I'm pretty sure they already have a venue in Monterrey, which is what they're using for Ascension)

Canada is even cheaper for NA orgs so its the clear for NA

Monterrey is the better option for South America

For NA, yes, I agree that Canada is the best option, but if you want LATAM and BR to benefit as well (because why wouldn't you?) then Monterrey is definitely the right choice.

honestly might be a stupid suggestion, what about Barbados or some other Carribic country? Just host the venue there, I am sure these smaller countries will want to attract tourists using esports. Malta seems to be enjoying their collab with ESL for CS, I am sure there will be some candidates
