if each region gets one slot then what are your predictions
my preds:
South Korea: T1
Japan: Zeta
Thailand: MiTH
Indonesia: RRQ
Vietnam: not sure
South East Asia: PRX
South Asia: GE
Ocenia: no sure
I really don't think zeta gets the Japan slot. Also instead of Oceania they'll probably keep a ph slot and just replace TS with an org like Oasis or Naos or something.
crazy raccoons are very big in some other esports I think they could get the slot if they wanted
can’t wait to see sea fans shocked when kr get the 3 slots they honestly deserve
teams should be: T1, GENG, DRX, ZETA, PRX, RRQ, new PH org, new Thai org
i think it is more likely nongshim get one rather than drx, they seem like an organization that is way more stable and has more money on top of it
possible but I also think they’re too important an org to this game specifically for riot to lose. I mean they bought in early, have an academy+GC team, and consistently invest in strong rosters
South Korea will get like 3 I think , SEA will get 2 , SA gets 1 , Japan gets 1 , Oceania gets 1 , I think this will happen or SEA gets three instead of Korea getting three due to th sheer number of countries in SEA
It's gonna be like zeta( too much popular to be left out) , GE ( again kinda same reason plus they just won pacific title) , PRX ( obviously) , T1( obviously due to league relations of riot with t1) , DRX or geng( again due to league) , Oceania no clue , RRQ or fullsense makes it
South Korea
T1 and GenG
SEA
Paper Rex, RRQ, Team Secret, Full Sense
Japan
DFM
South Asia (Rest of SEA)
Global Esports
Other Possible orgs
Flyquest
S8ul
GAM Esports
It's not necessary that all regions will get one slot.
Also Korea will almost certainly get 2+ slots. Too many big names too not include such as T1, GENG.
Japan will get one for sure.
Maybe 2 SEA and 1 SA.
It will all come down whose fanbase is supporting their team thru the team capsules and bundles.
It won't be 1 slot per region and Oce isn't getting the slot and it feels like neither is PH going to get a slot their slot will be PRX as rep of ROSEA in this structure. I think this is going to be somewhat like this and I am confident of getting 80% right atleast -
Korea- T1 and NS/GENG
Japan- Zeta Divsion
ROSEA- PRX
Indonesia - RRQ
Thailand- Buriram United
India - RNTX Global / S8ul
Last slot I am honestly not sure - It's possible that RNTX Global takes the ROSEA slot and becomes sort of PH representative and that will allow S8ul to take Indian slot . It's also equally possible we may see Fancy United become the 8th team as rep of Vietnam . It is also possible to see 3 Korean teams or 2 JP teams . And last possibilty is having a PH representative someone like Oasis/Secret/Xipto but its unlikely loooking at how things have panned out if they go this way Global RNTX org has more chance of getting that slot than local PH orgs right now .
