Why Something is considered an Import

Some people were confused about this so I wanted to clear things up. Something originates from the far east of Russia from a town named Vladivostok which is considered to be part of Asian side of Russia. Which means that technically something is an Asian. He is still considered to be an import because Riot has classified any Russian to be part of EMEA wether they are from the European or Asian side. This is also why he was always playing in Japanese challengers because Tokyo servers are closer to him then Moscow servers.

Honestly he would be considered Asian already since he played Asian league all his life.

3 year playing = not import anymore, no?

Does not work like that, maybe should, but it doesn't.

What's ironic is that Something's hometown is closer to Seoul than most other teams native countries in Pacific league. he should not be considered an import, Riot is playing dummy

Russia is considered part of asia and Europe. The far east side of Russia is considered part of Asia and not Europe making Something an Asian.

Whatever region he plays in he is from. Simple. Something has never played versus EU players given the geographical distance, so he's not EU.

ye i wonder about that, isnt there some residency rule like youre no longer an import when youve competed in the region for a number of seasons? like how do they classify it, in t1 for example, saya and xeta (+ban) had competed in na mostly but because theyre ethnically korean/korean residents its fine? but a russian who almost exclusively competed in asia is not and is considered an import?

he is an import because he is from emea. He is considered an import by riot's rules. Check riot vct database it literally says he's an import.
It's not fans deciding he's an import, it's literally as per riot's rules.

How daft can you people be

Yeah he's an import by "Riot's rules", but he lives in the Asian part of Russia. What I'm saying is, y'all come up with the narrative that PRX is being carried by EMEA player, which is literally a 1 IQ take. Also, he didn't play that good against EDG, yet PRX still won. So your logic of "APAC being carried by EMEA" doesn't apply at all.

bro i'm not talking about "carried by emea" that's just bait. it's not my fault you fall for it and let them bait you.
I'm just talking about the OP's title. Something IS in fact an EMEA import, whether you like it or not.
Stop letting people make you mad over this stupid shit, enjoy your team's wins and relax lol

So a Hawaiian player will be considerred as an Oceania (APAC) player? I don't think that's how it works.
