Unfortunately, they just aren't invited to ascension.

Out of curiosity, do you have a source for that?

Not doubting, but I kinda assumed they'd let the team ascend and get picked up by an org if they were to win.

Interesting. Don't really know why that's the case, I feel like it's a win/win for the orgs and players.

its like “if you have 2 sentinel teams on tier 1 and both makes playoffs, what could stop them for throwing one match for another’s benefit” type of conundrum

I meant like Cubert academy make T1 they get sold to Flyquest or some other org. SEN gets money from selling their players and Cubert gets to go to T1.

I could see two SEN orgs being in T1 being a problem fs

is that the reason rob gave? cause i dont feel like thats really a valid concern. a lot of pros from the same region are friends anyway so whats stopping them from throwing? (it's more of a problem that sen would have 2 team representation so thats way more than any other team) and it would be solved anyway by letting the slot/players be signed right?

They can, but then they need to be sold to another org to play in Tier 1
