"Call it guest slots, visitor slots, Ascension slots, non-partnered slots, it doesn't change the fact that teams qualified for a 2-year stint at international leagues. It also doesn't make them less than. All three teams deserve to be with the best, they proved it by winning. They'll be treated like every other team while they're in the league, get the same financial support, play the same number of games, get the same opportunities to compete at global events."

so he's just addressing to people who triggered over calling the guard ascension slot "guest slots"

outside of that it's still a nothingburger

honestly I respect him for at least responding to the community, you would never see in any esports ever where the developer/esports team of the game talks about their tier 2 scene to the community directly like this

you dont think i know? he was presented with a wide array of valid criticism about both the way he appears to view tier 2 and the dissapointing amount of support it recieves from Riot, and then literally says "you guys are just mad" and refuses to address anything.

a lot of franchised teams will improve and deplete the t2 scene this offseason and improve heavily but even after that maybe 5-6 T2 teams can compete in T1 and actually be more than a few fluke wins

that is not many, 2-3 EMEA teams 2 NA teams 1 BR team 2 APAC teams is not a lot at all

people need to just have patience in the future id like to see riot just have a simple league system once these partnered teams expire, just straight leagues like there is in football with 3 relegations and promotions so nobody can cope

valid? people asked him what will he do about t2, he replied that riot has made plans and will be revealed next month.
he replied each and every time someone called him out, and they got to a point so stupid that they forced a new conversation out of a single word "guest".

he addressed the t2 issue in the first week of july, its people's fault that they are all only reading the second half of the same twitter thread screenshot. just like you.

I'm pretty sure he already addressed everything no? he said that he's planning on arranging the schedule for next year so that next year t2 would have something to do and would have shorter off season, that's basically the main complaint of most people regarding to t2

I mean it's not franchising, orgs didn't buy their slots and they can't sell them. It's also limited to 5 years, we don't know what'll happen after that.

People are just using the wording as an excuse to complain about franchising which is chill because franchising is lame

The delusion is insane.

95% of the best players will be in franchising next year.

Their will always be talent in t2 that will shine and then get scooped by franchised team.

THATS HOW SPORTS WORK.

lol about people who think apex has more than 2 franchise worthy players.

ye it's some weird quasi-implementation that still manages to exclude most of the scene lol
revised calendar would probably cut that time down (i assume) and make relegations/promotions a thing

Wording is important; framing is important. Even if a sentence or a word isn't meant for ill intent, the context it is used within the overall argument will affect its meaning.

The "guest slot" complaints is basically that. Even if it's technically a correct term– the context, the situation, and where the sentence fits into the argument; it paints the tone of the entire story.

And that's the most damaging part. It framed his argument as if he saw the Ascension teams' effort is worth barely anything.

An argument with originally no ill intent turned upside down just because of a singular word that is used in the most inopportune moment.

Like they can never be content.. In other franchised esports there is no possible way for tier 2 teams to get into the T1 league. Atleast here u get 2 years.

istg these NA frogs really piss me off. The no. of hate comments under leo's tweet is just so sad to see. People literally want to find a fault wherever they can. first it was the term "guest" , and now apparently he's "tone deaf" and needs "media training" is all they can say

man it should've been apeks, i'm not trying to take away anything thing from m8 they played an amazing series and event and they definitely deserve the slot but apeks played so good all season, 4 experienced players (and a prodigy in keiko) with a good org backing them would been nice to see them play in franchise cuz I have faith they'd probably be top 4 in emea.
