The other 13 must go to APAC - 2 Thailand, 2 Indonesia, 2 Philippines, 2 Vietnam, 2 Korea...

I feel like APAC deserves more slots, they looked incredible at all international events and surely the potential is much bigger than anywhere else

because latam and br are totally different regions, they never compete together, instead korea, japan, NA is only 1 region, also LATAM is divided into 2 parts LATAM NORTH and LATAM SOUTH. That is why they have more slot than others that only have 1

I think CHAMPION tourney can be changed after MASTER ends. Last champion was just like all 4 Teams in EU got play-off so if it still be like this, Val gonna be like csgo that only one region competes tgt . If APAC would make sth surprise in MASTER such as Korea or Thailand or any teams from APAC win the tourney, Riot must be reconsidering about EMEA slot because it might not be a monopolist winner anymore. kekw

So the Champions will continue to be a Masters but with more prize pool. What a shame honestly, I can see the 2/3 slots from NA, but 3 for EMEA? There's litteraly like 20 teams top tier fighting each other to see who's going to take the spots, why don't increase the slots? BR and LATAM sharing slots I honestly liked, fair when comparing the results from KRU and the BR teams, but the rest is just no sense.

Korea and Japan separate slots is just stupid, imagine if emea slots were Russia+Ukraine+rest of Europe(Ukraine=Korea in terms of population, Russia>Japan but only slightly), it would make no sense. Korea and Japan should be either merged with the rest of APAC and get 4 slots for the whole APAC region or make it Kr+jp 1 slot and SEA+OCE 2 slots

Quite sure because Riot wants to pander Japan. 4 slots SA makes no fucking sense either. 3 at most.

Technically EMEA didn't really lose any slots, the 4th slot was basically Gambit winning Masters 3. Masters 2 winner should've directly been invited to Champions, and making JP/KR share a direct slot, and the second one via APAC N LCQ.

People keep saying that EMEA lost a spot when they didn’t they just didn’t change the slot distribution, they took out the guaranteed masters 3 winner slot which an EMEA team won last time and then had to put in OCE and the South Asian region. Personally I think SA lcq should have 1 and emea gets 4 but oh well

Like yeah, 4 guaranteed to EMEA makes a little more sense, but surely isn't the catastrophe all these kids are making it out to be

If EMEA really is king of 5v5 tac fps like so many of their fans claim, then they'll win anyway

#156

Frags

Who cares if a EMEA team wins when we have a shitton of good teams/orgs and with 3 slots in champs some squad might disband if they don't qualify, judging by last year's results EMEA should have 4-5 slots minimum, there are at least 6 very good teams in emea rn. APAC as a whole gets way too many slots, make it 4 instead of 6, Japan does not deserve to be a separate region yet and they should be merged with Korea, plus 2 slots for lcq apac is weird as well.

#224

You're not looking ahead at all. Even if EMEA teams win the next 20 events it will all be for nothing as long as they have so few slots. You have 20 top teams fighting for 3 mere slots. All the orgs are gonna pull out and EMEA will die quickly. Riot is fucking braindead.

just making orgs way less likely to invest in the game as the chance they get exposure ( by making an international event with lots of viewership) is tiny. wouldnt be suprised if lots of orgs drop out

furthermore, it fucks over minor regions. last year when they got prac and experience with emea/na they improved massively as seen with champs, the skill gap was minature compared to like masters 2/3. rito should have given sa, oce and china??? a direct slot so although unfair at first they can improve over time so the game doesnt end up like cs with 2 regions. not sure what they were thinking! how does this benefit any team?

Its not that I dont agree with you...I def do agree, but I would say that more teams means more LAN days for Masters/Champions and more players + staff traveling to another country which is mean more money spend by the organizer, and if you take into consideration the whole covid situation which is still unknown as to what the regulations would be by then, I would say am glad we have such LAN events?!?!?!. But I definitely see your point 16 slots should be the minimum at Masters and Champions, the scene though its still one year old so we have to believe!!!.

So EMEA gets 3/4 (or 4/8 if you like) finalists in champions and still gets only 3 slots I mean come on....If you take into consideration the teams and regions who are in EMEA (EU/TU/CIS) then EMEA should get 2or3 slots for EU, 1 for TU and 2 for CIS imo....So to be fair to others I would say 4 should have been the minimum for EMEA in champions at least no?

downgrading na after 2 of their 3 teams get a third place in pools of a 16 team tournament makes zero sense.
true tier 1 in valorant is so skewed torwards Europe and NA with some brazil and the performances by teams like KRU, Gambit, and X10 at Champs are exceptions. not the rule.

?? sea literally have the same slot as last year and also with the addition to subregion like oce and sa to their circuit system reducing sea slot literally will be the dumbest move from riot. I also did not agree with how emea only get 3 slot and you can blame it on riot on how they distribute slot to br/latam not sea LUL

Dumb distribution aside, sucks to see China not playing yet.

They didn't get very far in CSGO, but definitely a cut above the rest of the Asians. And they've been tearing it up in PUBG for years now. Definitely looks like a top tier developmental region.

Instead Riot is pandering Brazil and Japan lul. Cringe as fuck. EMEA robbed. CIS should at least have its own 1 slot at this point, if they are going to rob EMEA.

I don't understand why South America is getting 2 LCQ slots while everyone gets 1. EMEA has 3 regions under it yet gets 1 slot, APAC getting 2 is still understandable with the inclusion of South Asia and OCE but why does SA get 2 slots? Don't BR and LATAM already have 1 slot each? 1 slot in LCQ would make a lot more sense.

The issue here is that From masters to champions NA get +1 LCQ, Latam +1 LCQ, and Asia get +2 for geographical reasons, meaning EMEA stay at three and get 0.

IMO geographical limitations for needing two separate LCQ's for APAC should be counteracted by giving SEA 1 slot since they could in theory, split the teams to either apac LCQ.
Now NA, Latam, EMEA, and APAC each get 1 extra slot for champs it just feels wrong to make it harder for EMEA teams to qual when they did end up getting the best results in 2021

I wouldn't care if they did:

I honestly believe KRU made LATAM to deserve an extra chance since they did better than NA, BR and APAC on the major.

Weird ass mf slots, EMEA needs way more for their performances across the last year, 3 slots overall including LCQ and winning masters not getting you a straight quali to champs is just trash, enough room for GMB TL ACE but what about FNC GLD G2 and those types? they're way better than half the teams at the event but they can't make it because all riot cares about is increasing player base, not level of competition
