If rito changes the meta every single time before a masters, then the exact order of the region top 3 is rarely ever accurate
I doubt g2 would have beaten 100t and EG without tejo (despite being better than them)
This is why the first seeds struggle; they are the best team of their region in the previous meta, not the current one.

I think rito should instead change after each intl event. That way the teams that play well would be the best in the current meta.

Sen was NA’s best team before Tejo (think champs)
Geng was apac overall best team before tejo
Edg would likely be here without tejo

Therefore changing it after the qualification stage for the intl event is kinda annoying, means that the best teams at the meta for the lan event might not be the ones that made it through the qual stage.

Meta change before a tourny makes no sense, all the teams and seeds are based off the last meta. Makes no sense at all, at least switch meta for regional playoffs

Imo, after every lan the meta should change. This means each split (regional split + the associated international event that the regional split qualifies you for) is all one meta. The team that is the best in that meta should dominate regionally and internationally. After each lan you then change the meta. This is what makes the most sense for me.

yeah they probably should've nerfed tejo after Bangkok but they didn't really know how broken he was.

They dont normally change meta after qualifiers, only did it this time cause tejo was a biggg problem

Should changed before stage 1 then. Tejo was picked a lot in Bangkok
