fuck this hurts more than a broken heart.
riot does care about eu they just dont want to increase the total amount of slots cause of “budget”. Also dont sleep on other regions. Scrims during masters berlin and champs tell that tier 1-2 eu teams were getting shit on by some of the top teams in asia. Before you bring up the “scrims dont mean shit” Gambit was Scrimbit for months until masters berlin. Scrims show the potential of a team. Eu is dominating because of the wide variety of players to choose from. Got so many countries to produce talent for us. Same for Asia but thats why riot is taking the gamble over there. They just severely lack mid rounding and the tactical aspect. Its all about potential
I never said scrims have anything to do with how many a region should get. So you want a INTERNATIONAL tournament with 8 eu teams and all the other regions get like 2? They should just give direct slots to turkey and cis. And separate them from emea playoffs. They can do that but they arent increasing the total amount of slots. Also you are severely underrating other regions.
and thats why I brought up the budget. Yet they created a whole vrl league that gets absolutely no viewership besides the spanish league. Stop complaining europe got it good. All they gotta do is give turkey and cis a direct slot. Europeans always crying about slots like it aint an international tournament. Also the games more popular in the other regions. So why wouldnt you give them chances. Its all about potential and one day dont be surprised if brazil or na or even japan beats one of our teams. Im all for the diversity idk why yall arent. Its also very profitable in other regions rn. Thats why I do think turkey is being done dirty not having a direct slot.
