Why cant Riot do APAC Qualifiers for Masters like EMEA
5 Slots for APAC will do much justice in sending a deserving team to represent and if JP is really good then they will get the slot like Turkey
because it kills japan, why would u want to do that. just make a 24 team tournament and give the worse regions play-in slots exclusevily. would make more space for other teams + lower regions wouldnt get crushed + the main event is higher competition
japan has a huge fanbase and might bring some good teams in a few years with homemade talent. from VCT 2023 there will be plenty of homemade talents across all regions, japan has a big playerbase and might overtake other regions. if u put them together people will lose interest of proplay and wont try to go pro or even care about val ata ll
