8 different leagues (Spain/France/DE/Nordic etc) and the winner of the leagues get to compete in a promotion tournament to get a VCT spot with the lowest ranked VCT teams from the past stage.
FOKUS was the team from VRL-DE that successfully got in to VCT
i thought about it a bit and you are right, maybe having 4 or 3 spots from vrl might benefit both the tier 1 orgs and tier 2 orgs as t2 will have better chance to get into t1 while t1 will have more competition which is overall better for the scene and now that i think about it i understand why na tier 2 scene is in shambles rn lmfaoo
So every team that doesn’t make it to VCT plays 2 qualifiers a year and that’s it? Half of the orgs in tier 2 would not have a roster signed rn. Talking about Vitality, MAD, Alliance, BDS, etc
VRL boost the scene in many ways, and yeah it might be hard for a team to make it, but I can guarantee you that all teams rather that than qualifiers. Plus you don’t need your whole team to make it, look at Alfajer or Musashi
basically just like SEA qualifier where numbers of country playing a league and playoff format, then the winners will advance to the next stage. their next stage is promotion stage where they compete with other countries winner and 2 lowest ranked team from previous EU challangers stage. so vrl is like EU tier 2 tournament.
