ngl, i had doubts about X10 since iceland. I always thought they fell off and the reason they got into champions is bcs Iceland only reserved 1 spot for SEA and that gave them ALOT of points. Plus, other strong SEA teams were still new and didnt have enough grounding at the time, like PRX and TS. But X10 did really great in Champions, i mean, qualifying for top 8 playoffs AND taking a map off the reigning Masters winner. Theyve proven they actually deserve the Champions spot despite them having a hard time during the regional 3rd stage. Really sad that Patiphan is probably leaving the Val scene but excited for his future

Not saying FS fell off but this is worrying, rolled by a team from the same region. They may own (kinda) in APAC LCQ but they have very little experience with global teams. Even PRX did significantly better against VS, and they took a map off SMB. Im hoping for FS to atleast take a map off C9/FNC, if not, the APAC LCQ spot is wasted. So many good teams couldve got in (PRX, Nuturn, F4Q, NTH)

Edit: I know theyre not exactly in the same region, tourney wise, but they are, geographically, they scrim each other alot

People like free stuff lol
