Does PRX/G2/Wolves get the same community treatment if they win Toronto and Crashout in EWC? People would call the chinese team fraud but G2 not fraud.
I understand your POV, however Winning masters Toronto is not an excuse for performing poorly at EWC and people shouldn't give them double standard treatment if T1 got treated the way they did. They can make playoffs or have a close match, as long as the team taking it seriously.
Yes, the schedule is 2 weeks after Toronto finish + format is in Liquipedia.

If EWC played in different patch as Toronto its understandable to have less time to prepare AFTER resting.
From viewer perspective, would you rather see Toronto winner team perform like Post Bangkok T1 or like Masters Tokyo FNC, simple as that.
Not baiting, Genuine Question:
Do u want the Toronto winner played like 2025 Pacific Playoff Stage 1 T1 after Bangkok at EWC? or
Do you want the Toronto winner played like 2023 Masters Tokyo FNATIC after they won LOCK IN Brazil at the EWC?
I'd rather see 2023 FNC form Masters Toronto team playing at EWC.
I hate seeing good teams playing like shit cause of neglectful attitude of not taking the games seriously and people giving them excuse card "Mickey Mouse/Saving Strats etc"
Champs gonna have the new map, diff patch, form after stage 2 etc. Why wait till champs to test out the newly Toronto winner team back in game. There's a perfect 16 team turney with international teams to test it on same patch etc. Best part is there's more teams competing like FNS-less NRG, 100T, DRX and EDG playing.
Lets say as a viewer perspective, MVP of Masters Toronto perform great in final and give terrible performance in EWC group stage and team got eliminated. That's like watching T1 win bangkok and them not making Toronto.
As long as they don't crash out in group stage and making excuses. Playoffs at least. I wanna see a stacked 16 teams tournament.
So u WANT the team to win Toronto to NOT win EWC? give them the free excuse pass for not doing well to discredit EWC? U don't want predictable strong team to win every event?
Patmen is listed to be in the press conference, so he had to be there.
Toronto winner should have winner mentality to perform at highest level, not using excuses for neglectful attitude. Bad showing at EWC after winning Toronto should be on FRAUD watch.
Every episodes have creative detective theme to it even if its a filler episodes, but Kaito Kid/FBI/Black Org episodes are always bangers.
DC Movie 27 post credit scene just reveal massive character development, I've watched over 1000 episodes but still need to catch up to latest.
Normal people: Aspas = Goat
shizuku_hajime: uhm actually TECHNICALITIES, CONDITIONALLY, NITPICK WISE, IN MY NARRATIVE IF 1,2,3,4,5
KangKang always wanted the team to stay unchanged, EDG is basically a family. After and Haodong's imminent departure post shanghai is inevitable (change is needed) and that is result based merit I'm talking about. EDG will give the 5th incoming player the trust, opportunity and time to be in the main team, but performing that satisfy the result is needed to maintain in that team.
it's gonna be result based merit. Unsatisfactory split/international result = EDG gonna trial different player each time till they find the one. The core 4 players ain't leaving. the 5th gotta flex adapt to the meta whether its flash initiator/Yoru/Double duelist/Double smokes/Double Senti etc.
Never seen gumball. Is it an underrated cartoon? Not as mainstream like Family Guy/American Dad/South Park/Futurama?
Dungeon Meshi that good? I've only seen 16/24 episode so far cause it felt somewhat stagnant.
Also I def need to watch Orb: On the Movements of Earth, was too focused on Blue Lock and Shangrila Frontier at the time.
and the winner of Masters Toronto MVP!!!! The modern day Maharajaaaa Jinder Mahal!!!!
Dark Gathering - Actually decent horror anime
The Case Study of Vanitas - Might not be for everyone, but it’s unexpectedly well made and the Anime not talked about enough.
Haven't watched it yet but have these 2 on my plan to watch:
FINALLY someone that actually leave notes on their MAL, people needs to do it more often.
As for recommendation:
they kicked d00mbr0s..... thats when you know org is fked.
Americas and EMEA for sure. Too much depth to the points of choking like TH and G2. Simple Pacific and CN wins 3/3 international events for a reason. Less is more.
never asked for stupid inflated NA high salaries maybe.
Bazzi
k1ng
Zest
Sayaplayer
Rossy
Jemkin 4.3 RAR (Oracles Elixir). Stats speak for itself.
It's today + should be after platchat + shyo gonna watchparty it.
Similar to death note would be Zankyou no Terror & Monster.
OCE: 1
SA: 1
JP: ?
KR: ?
SEA: ?
Possible 1 extra slot from Boom/NS (If both don't make playoff BOTH eliminated = 0 slot and 2 ascension promoted)
BLG 1st game against TL starts at 3am. No nats and EMEA has less time to prep. KangKang and nobody might watch party it.
Champs 22 Istanbul time would be considered good for asia (9pm and midnight)
Champs 21 Berlin is Midnight & 3am (Toronto is earlier by 1 hour so 11pm and 2am).
Speaking about Choking
https://www.vlr.gg/475902/sentinels-vs-g2-esports-champions-tour-2025-americas-stage-1-gf
only 3 tho, Asia have entire 2021, 2022 + Lock In brazil (7 tournaments) at awful times.
cause RIOT wants the JP and CN viewers to inflate the number.
Asia won last 3/3 international event. Either GenG/PRX should swap with SEN for the 30%. Have SEN be the 20% if u want to compromise.
