Why not hold it in LA in Riot Arena. Gives SA and LATAM teams access to T1 NA teams for scrims, plus the production should be a lot better.

Maybe the prod team in LA is working worlds so they're not there.

If you wanna get a P-1A visa yeah. Go for a B-1 and it takes like 4ish weeks. They're only here to compete, not take a position on an NA team. From the time they know they qualify, it should be enough time.

You can, but ping to LA can be rough + the production is not up to the same level as Riot Arena.

They can scrim with NA teams while being in Mexico and getting a Visa takes a long time for some countries

Good middle point for both NA and SA teams, teams can scrim with Franchised teams with good ping, cheaper travel costs for orgs and no need to deal with possible VISA issues.

Production been kinda ass with all the tech pauses, but organizational wise all the other positives make up for it

Monterrey is closer to Illinois and texas server than LA

LATAM teams can still scrim NA tier 1 teams while there

Yes. the internet cables are a little wonky, but ExitLag fixes that
