Basically, starting 2025 all ascension team go by this ruling :

• Did not qualify to split 2 play-offs = relegated to their challengers region and have to play 1 whole year of challengers + ascension tournament if they want to come back
• Did qualify for split 2 play-offs but did not make it to champions = relagated to the ascension tournament right after champions to fight for their spot, if they manage to win then they can play franchise the year after
• Did qualify for champions = you stay in franchising for one more year

No more main villain unfortunately, money killed them

This year we had 2 events that took place where a regional area was implemented, next year Bangkok, Toronto and Paris don’t have any, so we might get a way better production

In my head, if the servers can handle tens of thousands of game with 10 players every time I think it can handle the same count ( I don’t think everyone will be watching from the replay system)

If the venue is a football venue, us the French will be eating insanely good

EDG can only go so far because of S1mon and the rookie curse, don’t get me wrong, I’d like to see China win a trophy but we need to see if the rookie curse is just an unstoppable force

Sacy is an extremely decorated player, good clutches and good utility, he deserves his place fair and square

Why would it be you just press 0-9 to spectate a specific player, tell me wich part for you make it difficult

You are overall closer to better players and you can learn a lot more faster

Warning : I will try to not shame any games that happened (and the one that will happens) in this long message, I’ll try to keep my focus towards champs and maybe this year and last year.

This stage champs is lacking something, I do not say that it’s bad but just not fitting for play-offs matches, it’s ok for group stage but for more important game it’s kinda annoying, they reused the COEX article of VCT pacific instead of buying another slightly bigger stage just for play-offs or just let the 8 teams play in Inspire arena (but I can understand why they want the top 4 only to play inside this one). To compare with 2023, I’m pretty sure they had another arena for the group stage and first part of play-offs to the NA one they used for regular season, the whole of 2023 had great arenas (the colosseum in EU, APAC had an insane one for the grand finals, Americas was fine, São Paulo was nice, Tokyo was incredible and LA insane). 2024 (imo) had slitghtly worse ones (except the Mercedes Benz one), they reused 2 regional areas overall (For champs and Shanghai). The format of this year is also not great, multiple single elimination game to decide wether or not you get into an international event, bad scheduling overall (5 months for 10+ games for 7 months off season), like 2023 but just bad formats as a bonus.
Quickly raising a question, are riot just trying to end this season by rushing everything so they can « start trying » in 2025 ?
The main reason I’m asking is well :

• stages
• formats
• unchanged price pool
• odd number of teams
• Chinese teams not having a banner in their bundle (could be heavily unrelated)
  If it was not clear for you, write up a comment under and I’ll try to explain into other terms
  Thoughts ?

Potter will try to keep Jawgemo no matter what if she stays with EG

c0m is the last « Korean » playing in Seoul, from LA to Seoul, he is the true home turf king

He was legit playing undertale

Both teams might not be pregnant but they are delivering (and throwing slightly)

Flair of a team that play slow too, crazy

I need his bald routine

Regional farmer. All jokes aside, pressure and burn out might be the thing, a lot of young players get tired really fast (a good example is KC). He’ll get used to it and get more consistent throughout the next years or so

Thank god there is a (let me check) 7 months off season !

In 2023 he was able to thanos snap anyone, now he can’t do it anymore and china got stronger

Only 2 men can save NA from china

I’d like to think this agent punish you for misusing the utility, but do we know the role of the agent ?

Biank is a champs group demon

If he is that predictable then why is no one watching him ? Go on stage without the spec view trust me

USA or Korea or Russia assuming synergy is not a problem

patitek have more chances getting picked up by Liquid I think

Time to plug on ardiis stream

They are both doing their job, clutching when it matters and good utility, we need a h2h who is the better champs merchant

c0m and sacy are the same type of players

nah, yay has the sentinel typa aim, and Demon1 is solid on brimstone and astra

Maybe coms value ?

Pure bait dw(unless)

Happens, ig we'll see next year

rookie year ? he has been slaying in T2 NA and ascension

He is named Kim so I guess it's good ?

Sacy channeling the champs energy to prove the lurking haters wrong

Give him some slack, he was playing insane the whole year

So, starting 2025, if an ascended team do not make play-offs they go back at the bottom of T2, if they do make play-offs they start at ascension tournament, if they make it to champs they stay in the league for one additionnal year, but the team are capped at 12, so what happens when both ascended teams get to champs ?

He said he'll try extra hard to get a spot in FNS chat, and since he start playing sentinel, I kinda want to believe in him again

The pregame when he watches tiktok was mad funny

Absolutely pure speculation so take this with a grain of salt
But if Deryeon stay in form like what he did against Gen.G and yay (assuming he stays) play sentinels agents and keep the same roaster honestly they can get play-offs nah ?

For eg to need another champs they need a jett player with good stats that can also play some smokes, Demon1 should be good, they need a flasher, Ethan is a good choice, then they need a fragging vibe merchant IGL that can play sentinel, like bootio, and finally a lurker that is still flanking like c0m. Thoughts ?
