This or 2SEA 2JP should be the way
By the way as far as i understood the 2027 format then does this partnership thing even matters apart from money and getting some byes in Regional tournaments? they dont have any advanatge in Pacific stage right?

1 JP is the only way, a second JP team would kill the scene

its honestly doesnt really matter who gets partnered now with the new format
if your roster is good enough you will always be able to qualify thru the qualifiers to cups
2 JP teams wouldn't kill the scene at all, they arent guaranteed a spot, and a non partnered team would easily fill their spot if they beat them
the fans of teams that lose their partnership won't go away

yes but all the JP talent would want to be on the one team rather than splitting the talent among two teams like it is now

arguably its the JP talent in tier 2 that needs to be consolidated, and an open circuit is honestly less likely to concentrate good talent than a franchise system
having 1 or 2 teams won't make an effective difference

2027 is a mess from my understanding :

Kickoff
8 Partner team + 4 team qualify per Continent:

1 Lan, 1 Las, 1 Na, 1 Br
2 EU, 1 MENA, 1TR
4 CN
1 KR, 1 JP, 1 SEA, 1SA-OCE

Cups (unclear) :
No idea what ist's gonna be for AMER-EMEA
APAC :

1-3 KR (Prob 2)
1 JP
1 TH
1 ID
1 VN
1 RoSEA (PH, MY, SG, MN)
? OCE (Maybe part of RoSEA)
? SA (Maybe part of RoSEA, but it's insane they are MORE premier team than JP)
