TBH you could both fit in Americas and APAC, both are a great match, but riot didn't grant you a slot, so you can feel you are a part of it...
So yeah I suppose you have now an occasion with China, they have a lot of team to fill, not enough of good player, and OCE have no T1 team so they can fill in.

How is the situation right now ? Still looking for ?

Because it's too mush populated, the 4 T1 region got rougly 1 000 000 000 people, China alone is APAC, so yeah they need to have their separate T1 region.

They are other region that could have 1 000 000 000 but PC market is a little bit mush undevelopped (India, MENA, Africa), maybe they will also become a T1 in the future

Well it make sense to make it in APAC, but I suppose CN lacking of good player for their 11 team gave an opportunity to OCE player, but it's weird to see it's primarily OCE player, and to see that those OCE player didn't manage to do some god performances :/

OCE player going to CN really need to be studied and explained, and with that explanation we will see if that make sens to make OCE in CN

Because lack of good player I think :/

I kinda doubt of that, Australia is a mush richer country than Thailand (x3)

Top GC are basically T3 noweadays, they compete in Premier and some of them have good result and even qual threw promo (G2G), for exemple, MIBR is right now top 3 BR

100% agree with that, but you don't have spot in China either.

Is they are a rule in China that if you play enough time in China you are not counted as an import ? If yes it's how many time ?

Sometimes it happen :c

Wait.... Another one ? OCE really betray APAC for China, 2 more player and they can have a full team (Please Riot allow that...)

How a 50-50 team could be top 2 ?

I think it's worth it, but org are sulking because they think if they are not T1 it's not worth it.

But more time pass more org will join and see they can do things. In LoL some T2 scene are really successful.

To be fair, if you bet on random you are supposed to end neitheir in positive or negative

Also I wont allow that vote, because it can create some biais to improve the bot

Wait wot ? from when to when ?

Do you have an hot take you want share with us ?

They technically got up with Iso's up, because Ope is the only weapon that canconcurrence vandal and phantom.

Iso up --> Ope nerf --> Vandal up

Yeah, we really need the ascension split being dutring T1 offseason...
Having the most important split of T2 during a break between Stage 1 and 2 are really destroying best T2 teams

Betting odd for CN W2 (2 last will be announced after TE and NV has played)

• CHIN-W2 [1.73] DRG - NV [2.37] (DRG 58%)
• CHIN-W2 [1.52] FPX - TE [2.91] (FPX 66%)
• CHIN-W2 [2.16] TEC - AG [1.86] (AG 54%)
• CHIN-W2 [1.16] EDG - WOL [7.43] (EDG 87%)
• CHIN-W2 [TBD] TYL - TE [TBD] (TBD)
• CHIN-W2 [TBD] NV - BLG [TBD] (TBD)

Please precise if you have already bet or if it's your first time of Stage 2

No prob, i'll show it tomorrow when PA as finished

No, it's good, it's nice to beleive in your team !

It's even more fun to see that JJH was a Chinese team that recruited the choir of GRF (Best S2 TW team), to finally go to OCE, I'm not that far to think TWHK and OCE should be a part of CN ascention even if that would be dumb XD

(I don't see them win ascension tho)

Yeah thats kinda amazing you have more player in CN than in AP

(Maybe one day an OCE team will be allowed in CN, and CN can have a full OCE team lel)

Are Ocenia now a part of China Val ?

Pfiou.. The bot was on the verge of being milked here, but ended win lot of money !

Only if you think T1 have 13% chance to win !

Kinda true, but if they continue to troll they wont go to playoffs, if they loose this game that can be a huge issue

Well, we can officially make group based on geography even in EMEA,

Americas : NA group, BR-LA group
Pacific : JP-KR group, SEA-SA group
EMEA : UE group (TH/KC/TL/VIT/KOI/M8), CIS-TR group (FUT/BBL/FNC/GX/NAVI)

Hmmm kinda true, they might trow this one, T1 is so lucky

You really think T1 have more than 13% to beat GEN ?

Wait... Why so mush of you did bet on T1 over GEN ? It's almost a 50-50 based on your bet

Bro you have 3 pro teams, if they are trash they are able to fire everyone and just hire a full T2 roster

Plus if they are that god they might win ascension when 2 team will be promoted (next year)

Maybe the opening of Colombian server might make it possible ?
The distance between LA and NY is 4k km, while the distance between LA and Bogota is 5k6 (x2 the distance between LA and Chicago),maybe it's enough with a good connection to play in Bogota ?

(Not sure about this)

Maybe USA and Korea where the worst possible choice ?
If team got huge problem with VISA in USA maybe they should move to Canada, Mexico, Colombia or even Brasil. Same for Asia, maybe Japan or SG are better choice

Any hot take ?

He is usless if he isn't the first to entry since is only advantage is to counter ope

True, but Iso isn't op. He is "not sane" for the game

Both broken in soloQ, bad in proplay (not sure about Iso, we will just unallow play ope)

I really think it's a new proof Ascention should be after the October T2 Split, if T1 team can't play during the split that allow ascention, T2 team can have a full split without being afraid of see their best player being stolen

Oooof, JDG has damage you all guys

no vote on RRQ DFM ? (And on BBL-FNC, VIT-TL)

10 on gen and RRQ, noted

To me change something about how the round robin point may create some bias, instead I would rather see a last chance qualifier that would be played at the same time of playoff.

Also we need to do intragroup before crossgoroup

After many and many changes, with vertical flash, they are a chance in 1 or 2 year we realise he is overpowered

It's weird but good, less game mean less gap between team mean suspens until the end, plus we have our full round robin

Update :

• APAC-W1 [1.44] TS - GE [3.29] (TS 70%)

Doing one single round robin over the year is so mush better than 2022 NA/EU format

If you never did that against a Cyupher I dont beleive

Damn thats a really hot takes

If that true Riot have an amazing talent to release broken agent that make ranked unplayable, but that are still not pickable in proplay

• Unfun to play at
• Unfun to play agasint
• Unfun to play with (Low teamplay)

Every agent since Fade have huge flaw in their Game-design. They have absolutely no inspiration, and that kinda sad.

I love team that made map, I love team that made VCT, I really think team that make champion is incompetent, they don't understand how to make a targetted nerf for proplay or for ranked, beside maybe Raze Nerf (I have no opinion on this one), I would revert everything since 8.0, Viper is already nerf by the mapool rotation and will even be nerf in the next mapool rotation when Icebox will be out, Skye is about to disappear from fuking her house Bind (100T/TH run Fade), she need her 2 flash back since Gekko and Fade are viable.
