While EMEA is a fusion of Turkey, EU and CIS Countries like Japan, Korea, Brazil have seperated Qualifiers and theres no excuse about why they do so. In EMEA we have a lot of Ping diffs too and nobody is crying because of this (anymore). Wish Masters and Champions were really designed for the best of the best but with this childish system we have we will once again have Teams at Masters that doesn't deserve it and will end up winning not a single Match once again.
NA should be fused with Brazil and LATAM so we would see only the best ones of America and not the ones who make it because there is no real competition in their small and isolated Region that is dominated by the Rich Orgs. I doubt the Ping diffs would be harder to deal than EMEA is dealing with for 2 years now.
Mix whole Asian scene together like KR, JP, APAC, SEA and not seperate them or make it so every Region is completely seperated.
And please don't tell me it's because of Viewers since it's not like the fans can't watch their Fav Teams Qual Games.
Also everyone saw it coming that Russian citizens won't get out of their Country to Countries like Iceland and Riot could have changed the location at least 3 weeks ago in my opinion.
they could have changed the location to Countries like Turkey since it's the only Country near EU that didn't sanction or block Russians from entering it. Also we all love Kebab and it would be a real W for all the Val Teams and Staff.
Also why Iceland again when you have so many Fans around the World and you could do this Show always in a different place so everyone gets to see something new. But nope, Riot will do Masters and Champions forever in Iceland and Berlin and this is kinda boring, even for the Viewers.
