3 for NA its crazy they only have one team contender to win a title (Sr) and Just because of flor, at least in Brazil they have liquid and mibr that proved they could win a title and loud gc also play almost in their same level

The way people act on here you would think it was EMEA's last seed who went dead last and not NA's

even if EMEA had 2 slots G2 would still be here?
third place is still respectable
your point is completely separate from your reasoning

Team Liquid would have done much better than GX or Falcons so Emea 3 spots is stupid

But you could make that argument for literally any team who didn't perform well

FQR came 9-10th but that doesn't mean NA should only have 1 slot

How many dumb people are gonna keep saying this?

EMEA is more than just EU

Americas has 4 spots

10 team tournament is dumb as fuck and yes Brazil deserves more spots but EMEA having 3 is not the problem.

Mb then
2 out of 9 orgs
8/50 non EU players
23/50 if you don't count Turkey as EU

Regardless that's not the point. The regions in Valorant are EMEA and Americas, subdivisions are pointless

And that's where i disagree. Treating EMEA and Americas as the same division is completely unfair and nonsensical when

Except that it isn’t, the player base in EMEA is even with the Americas one. Why wouldn’t it be fair

Americas already has more slots than they should considering pacific only gets 2 and China 1

#48

Because they don't fight for the same slots. The qualifiers are already divided. Why would they count together at the end?

Player Count is a factor but it shouldn't be a major one because a very small amount goes to proplay and historically NA and BR has the best viewership (Outside of China) and results as a region.

EMEA GC is 75-80% europe, and geographically the majority of the scene is smaller US and BR. So there's no reason to be EMEA itself, and not just divide it into EU and MENA (there's not even african orgs qualified lol)

The ideal world would be, of course, expanding GC to 12 teams, and dividing EMEA into EU and MENA. But sadly they're not doing that, so there's no reason to give 3 slots to EMEA

NASR, FLC, BBL? in groups of stage 3 (1/4)
NASR, FLC in Playoffs of stage 3 (1/4)

even if you do consider BBL not EU its still a very small minority

80% of the EMEA GC scene could fit inside Brazil

3 spots. lol

25% is not a 'very small minority'

80% of the EMEA GC scene could fit inside Brazil

What does this even mean? can you clarify

AMER has 4 slots, EMEA has 3, CN has 1 and APAC has 2

It's not fair to consider AMERICAS as an entire region with 4 slots when 1. They don't fight for the same spots 2. They're geographically 10x times bigger than the EMEA scene 3. They historically have better results even as separate regions (even if G2 won, BR got top 3 with two different teams 3 times in a row)

#37

So then why do you think its fair to consider EMEA as one region with 3 slots? You're applying double standards
I agree EU doesn't need 3 slots, but EMEA does. They should break EMEA in to EU (2) and MENA (1), the same way they have AMER broken up.

Results are a bad way to reliably create a bracket, or else the format would be changing every year, it's supposed to be consistent.
NA has had a team come 9-10th 2 years in a row now and they still have 2 slots, and even despite those results I and most people think they should keep 2 slots. (Are you willing to say NA only need 1 slot based off 'results'?)

because 2 slots its the normal lol

this format is absolutely dogshit

i agree the ideal would be expanding but what im saying is if they're gonna keep the same format there's absolutely no reason to give EMEA 3 slots
