i have heard that, (You get circuit points based on how you placed in Challengers finals or Masters. And then you are ranked against the other top teams by the amount of circuit points and the top x amount of teams go to Champions which x is defined by the amount of slots your region has.
But there are other ways to qualify for Champions. Such as the LCQ or literally Masters 3.
If you place first at Masters 3. You are given a spot to Champions and the rest of your region is based on circuit points so practically your region gains one extra spot which is fantastic.
And the LCQ is based on like super-regions which are like combined regions. So these big regions fight over extra spots for masters at the end of the year. Asia Pacific has 2 I think. OCE and NA(they are put in the same lcq) have like 1. South America have 1. And EMEA has like 2 I think)
idk if its real but i want an answer, since they got 6 circuit points from kickoff and masters madrid.
