imo 100t gaps 100t, Cryo diffs Cryo by too much for 100t to have a chance

Very unlikely they will delay an international event for one day of tech pauses, it should be no issue since there is a larger gap of time between emea round robin stage and playoffs which dont start until 5/8. Also another month after that for Toronto, so they can squeeze playoffs schedule for EMEA if they have to

Imagine trying to explain this matchup in 2022

I mean I doubt LOUD would be willing to sell off 3/5ths of their Champions winning roster, plus I’m not exactly sure how well Saadhak IGLs in English, he would probably still be great, but not at 2022 level

The visa system in East Asia is probably more efficient than the US, it took 4 months for a lot of SA teams to get visas for the US, imagine if they had to do that for a one-off final in lets say Vancouver, they might apply and pay the fees months in advance and not even make playoffs

What happened to sym? Is he not on EG anymore

I suppose it could be considered a conflict of interest, but I’m guessing Riot has a plan for if that ever happens - for example they recently created a rule that allows franchised orgs to field challengers teams as long as at least 3/5 starting players are eligible to compete in Game Changers. Also, some T2 orgs, especially in APAC, field second teams such as a U20 or U16 team, so this isn’t really an issue limited to just Game Changers. Hope this helps!
