Relocate the league host country.

I believe it's time for Riot to consider relocating the Pacific League from Korea to Thailand. Here are a few reasons to support it

  1. Easier visa access for most players and staff.
  2. Better ping to all Pacific region servers, improving overall quality of the region.
  3. Thailand is more affordable than Korea, making the league more financially sustainable.
  4. Reduced reliance on Korean Tier 2 and Tier 3 teams for scrims. Hopefully will stop the scrim sharing allegations.

They can play on hk server. Ping will be close to 40 for both teams.

vouch. if anything Bangkok is the perfect location for any Pacific teams to reside. riot should open a server there. perfect for east asians, south asians.

All they need is for Bangkok to provide a good studio space for Pacific, which shouldn't be hard considering Pacific have resided in places like COEX, so they're adaptable.

The only problem is Riot Korea's advantage if they need any technical help as well as event planning considering the backend infrastructure.

If Riot SEA can provide or at least slowly improve themselves bringing a stable backend infrastructure, I don't see why not (plus more roadshow opportunities for regions outside of East Asia.)

Also Ascension and GC Pacific is coming to Bangkok this year anyway, so this is practically Pacific's second home

what about when camera goes to thier faces, most of them are hiding. in China audience i don't see it much. And In Korea all the cheering's are soft. we wanna see EMEA/Americas like cheering's, just shouting player names or org name

Apart from the probably biased asf crowds (still probs better than KR), Vietnam would be a sick place to host a tourney no? We've seen it hosted in HCMC for League MSI and I think that went pretty good.

I don't think it's about privacy, I think its cultural shyness which I have no problems with but with that logic none of Korea would be on social media.
