EMEA ASCENSION

WatsomN

Ok so we know the ascension team rules, 1 team make it to champs, they stay on franchise for another year, if there are two teams make it to champs, higher placement stay and lower goes to ascension again, and if u miss playoff stage 2 = challengers. Ok then what's it gonna be for 2 ascension team for emea? because lets be real none of them making champs this year, ok so both of them relegated to ascension/challengers leaving 2 open slots for 2026 franchise? So the grandfinalist of emea ascension will ascend?

Apeks will probably go down straight and mates have a >60% chance to make the ascension tournament.

In that case the finalists would indeed both play T1. Maybe for that reason they will not play a final at all

maybe they should play the final and whoever wins gets a bye in kickoff? maybe idk my suggestion

if both finalists in Ascension are going T1, then they can turn the grand final into a charity showmatch :)

Possibly having Fokus and Pcific in T1 would be huge for the scene ig

If i had to pick a German team to ascend, I'd pick MOUZ, but in ideal world I'd have both ascend

also kick out GX from franchasing and give their perma spot to Mates for the viewership

Agree, GX been trash since ever and M8 pulls insane numbers, also Mouz is decent but Fokus roster is simply better

Lmao cause riot ain’t gonna give them a spot and they have no roster, Fokus and Pcific will be ascension final, that’s why they ascend

pcific as an org even has 10x less followage and impact than acend back in 2021.
It's just, that they formed like a collab with BBL, but if they ascend to franchise, they can't play anymore as BBL x Pcific I guess.
Riot might tell them, hey sell the whole roster to a more known org
