What's up with EMEA and importing?

#1

Okay, Flor may sign with Apeks and this made me really think about what is wrong with EMEA. You guys have such a big tier 2 scene. You have Turkey actually which is really unfair because I am pretty sure there's like 15 wonder kids every 2 km² in Turkey. You guys imported a shit ton of talents which I mean is not wrong by any means but why not cultivate your own region. I am not blaming here, just a genuine question with a hint of sadness. You let Kr1stal go, who was an amazing igl initiator for XLG. You have Sultan sitting somewhere in Kazakhstan and he is insane too. Why this much import when your own region has this much talent?

I am not a connoisseur in EMEA, probably the least watched amongst all the regions except for China. But even I can name 5 talents which are not signed in tier 1 this year. There is no way I have more information than the scouts.

Yea that is the entire question of this post
Why not take your regional talent
Kind of astonishes me that Americas are now cultivating more regional talent than EMEA

Im fairly certain the reason for some Turkish talent not being signed is lack of english

idk why FUT just fails internationally, every single player is crazy good but it just doesnt work out for some reason 😔
Maybe this year will be different.

Well technically there are more EMEA players playing in other regions than other region players playing in EMEA

The Saadhack and Less imports, I have nothing to say about, if you get the chance you fucking get them

Florescent makes a lot of sense for Apeks, not only gameplay wise which it does because she’s got a crazy calling. But specifically outside the game it’s a move that brings a lot of attention to an org in desperate need of it

Flyuh I understand, could have gone for an EMEA tier 2 IGL but I understand

Koalanoob I also understand why it happened but this I do not share at all

Both NaVi and Apeks have made mid moves. Loud guys and Fluyh might do well but those other 2 are given way bigger responsibilities that they are capable of.

talent starved region with too many T1 slots poaching from GOATmericas because leo faria combined the 2 strongest regions in the world for no reason and gave ch0na and bumea their own leagues

China won Champions btw, and guess what? They played an EMEA team in the grand final 💀

Even in Shanghai, an EMEA team made the grand final and almost won

Im guessing they are not searching for talent only but popularity. Most of the player they imported got some solid fanbase behind them i guess thats a reason right?

its a mix of two things, emea t2 is segmented to a fault meaning the density of talent in each league is super shallow making it harder to assess each player along with said players not being able to improve due to how weak it is. the other factor is gms being weird and somewhat fraudulent

I thought most Turkish players were stuck in Shitty orgs demanding insane buyouts from Vct teams.
