And that's my original thought about Fourth region, due to Riot's abandonment of CIS after Russo-Ukraine War. That could do well for competive scene for both region, as CN is the only region that secondary teams could use two imports with top league team could only use one. Imports of CN Ascensions had been called “mercenary” on Chinese forum, as if one team has promoted to league, they had to make one import leave, which had made the tregady of JDG (although they were not promoted but being bought out from RA)

mercenaries is crazy.

Also I think riot wants to do nothing with Russia until way after the war ends.

true, but also they havent had nearly as much time yet, better to give them time to develop the talent.

Doesnt make sense to merge all of Russia with CN
The majority of people living in russia dont have a playable ping to the CN servers.

I talked about it before but I do think the only realistic (yet very messy) solution would be to split Russia into regions (if you dont give them their own t2 league back).
Yes it'd probably get abused but the country is just too large to be slapped onto existing regions (ping wise).

CIS once had its own secondary league before the war, even equal as EU.
but doesn't like Valve, Riot appears to be faithful to the United States government's sanctions policy, Riot had banned some account from Iran to play LoL.
In secondary leagues, Riot said that there shouldn't be more than two foreigners of the subdivision in a squad. But how could be really enforced in EU?

Yes and so did Turkey. This was never a permanent thing and was basically to buy Riot time in EMEA while they planned a system.
They were never considered a standalone t1 region and were never planned to have favorable treatment compared to any other t2 league in emea.

Going into 2022, as Riot established infrastructure for the eminent Partnership system (find every league a suitable TO and set up t2 leagues), they were added into the pool just like the other emea regions.

Feel free to check out the 2022 System if you want to see how Riot envisioned CIS to be integrated (or just think of current t2 but add a CIS league)

And how they could enforce the import rules in EMEA? Not 100% sure what you mean here. We already have the rule if thats what the question is about.
Different subregion (but still from EMEA)? -> Counts as Import (-> Played last 2 splits in new subregion -> No longer import)

This could be an idea, but then a bunch of cis players currently in emea would be up in arms.

Maybe Riot can grandfather these Russians, making them still native in EMEA
