There shouldn't be any problem. For most countries from whom visas are required, it is electronic visas anyway.

Almost no country in the world has a visa problem with Turkey at the moment.

Turkey definitely. Almost no visa problem with any country including Russia, so we could see some CIS action too. Istanbul or a holiday resort (like the CS major in Belek) would be a good place to host a Masters event.

EU isn't always at war, Serbia and Russia are. If it weren't for those two we would have had peace for nearly 80 years straight.

If u based it now, most westerns doesnt give a fuck anymore in next matches coz all eu is gone and maybe na still watch w/ optic. If they bring it to asia, pretty sure many would still watch especially japan. Even i in SEA cant watch matches this master coz it literally starts at midnight. thhey should try bringing it to asia next time.

it was a joke chill habibi. Also this list is sht how can my country have one of the lowest crime rates in the world on the world crime index and be ranked 125 in the "peace index" ?

this is the only thing i could think of that might be the cause bec everything else is minute:
"17- Military expenditure as a percentage of GDP"
"19- Volume of transfers of major conventional weapons as recipient (imports) per 100,000 people "

It based on all lan event of course. Where previously it was dominated by NA and EMEA. Reykjavik 2022 is something else, majority of people were upset with the result.

ik im biased but chennai , india is imo the best south asian city for esports it was more developed than mumbai or delhi before valorant cuse of proximity to singapore , so there are a lot of val player in chennai and TN in general so there are a lot of tamil vaol players , i think a LAN in chennai would be LIT as

  1. imo the logistics would be easier cause of availability of PC * (IDK after the pandemic most of the biggest PC cafes shut down so....)
  2. the fan base is a lot more respectful and a very very passionate (anyone who knows a CSK fan will know that)

Actually fair enough, i just don't think Rito will consider India atm, bc esports scene is not doing the best there rn. Seems like a good spot in the future though. Probably going to be Seoul, Tokyo, or Singapore imo.

YOU were the one who made it about your country instead of leaving it at Europe being a very safe and peaceful place, that's all it was originally about

Imagine making it about ur own country bc you feel the need to defend it due to it's bad reputation and then getting butthurt after you realize ur view of Saudi Arabia doesn't align with international values and ideas

Why would location affect viewership when there is no crowd? Genuinely curious. And even if there was crowd why would people just stop watching the event because it’s in a certain country? Am I missing something?
