i know everyone prob has the same view on this, but here's my view on the slot allocations for the 2022 vct

  • rather than upsizing the amount of teams for masters (since a lot of regions have developed tighter and diverse competition, and we also know how some regions compare to others), they downgraded and turned a major valorant event into a miniscule 12-team event.
  • the br/latam play-in is kind of a good idea, BUT considering how br is slowly getting more competitive with top level orgs coming into the scene, br shouldn't just get 1 guaranteed spot as justification.
  • kr losing 1 slot after getting group stage'd at Champions is just dogwater at it's finest.
  • sea (or "apac") is getting huge and limiting them to only 2 slots just like last year is unfair to all of the subregions participating.
  • emea, being the most consistent region of competitive valorant only staying with 3 slots is disappointing. giving them another spot wouldn't break the competitive balance, but rather increase the level of competition throughout international events
  • seeing past the declining performance of na teams, i still belive that north america still is very competitive and most teams are willing to work hard to redempt the region if given the chance (definitely not sen, they're a stream team kekw).
  • seperating kr/jp and sea for apac lcq's is a fair desicion with the level of competition and size both regions have.

overall, rito gave us a big, fat, juicy L. sadge

if i were in the riot offices discussing how vct 2022 will work, ill tell them how will i allocate slots for masters like a decent tournament circuit organizer:
na - 3
br - 2.5
latam - 1.5
emea - 4
kr - 2.5
jp - 1.5
sea - 3
total = 18 teams
br/latam and kr/jp have half slots as play-ins

masters has now 3 stages, with a 8 team preliminary swiss system format (consisting of sea's 3rd seed, emea's 4th, na's 3rd, kr's 2nd, br's 2nd, and the winner of both play-ins)

its just my view, feel free to construcly critizise

Lowkey BR having slots is alright

I know what you're thinking but hear me out....

All the other regions need an easy way for playoffs, with BR there it lets teams get a free win at the international stage. BR get to say they're at a LAN and the other regions get to actually advance. Win-win
