Don't fall for Onur's dumbass tweet.
He is salty the Tixa Invitational isn't inviting academy teams so he posted some bulshit about "they think LATAM isnt on their level" even though both KRU and Lev were invited.
Nobody on the green,yellow and blue thinks you guys can't compete. Hell, we got dominated by KRU back in 2022. AK made the gringos tremble.
The facts were the following:
VCT teams agree to play the tournament by unanimously voting a rule that no academies would be allowed.
Leviatan, to date, is the only team with an active academy.
Leviatan cannot play the tournament due to calendar.
We asked if our Academy can play.
They tell us that they would like it but that they will respond to us in the next few days.
A week passes and they tell us no, because of the rule.
Why couldn't they reconsider inviting us?
I still haven't read a good reason not to do it. They don't owe us any explanations either, I'm just saying that there is no good reason not to invite us.
Greetings
Well no, because in case you missed it, he said LEV IS THE ONLY FRANCHISING TEAM WITH AN ACADEMY. it's not setting a precedent when there is only ONE team in the same situation as the LEV academy team. And besides, there is only one other LATAM franchising team and iirc, kru does NOT have an academy team. What precedent would they be setting with letting lev academy play, especially if they are replacing LEVs spot who were already invited. It makes no sense.
