Does teams need to apply for being part of the partner teams?
Or does the EWC organization has to contact them offering a spot?
I ask because i read on twt that KRU was possibly offered to join, but rejected it.
"All Clubs were selected through a rigorous evaluation process that reviewed nearly 200 applications. This included assessing their competitive track record in the Club Championship in 2024, their potential across multiple games, social media presence, fan engagement, and their strategic plans for activating their global esports audience. Eight Clubs received direct invitations based on their EWC 2024 Club Championship ranking, while the remaining spots were allocated through an open application process. Nineteen Clubs joined for the first time, and 21 returned from the inaugural year."
the 8 clubs were falcons, liquid, bds, vitality, t1, faze, gg, navi.
kru either did not apply or wasnt accepted.
