hey, i want to ask something
why zeal esport got invited directly to PH Challenger
where literally so many teams far better than them (SBE, BREN, NGX, APH, etc)
they got invited due to previous VCT circuit points, Secret has 220, Zeal has 30. NGX also has 30 but Riot gave the spot to Zeal because they retained more players (NGX replaced 3 players, ZLS only replaced 2)
even though i do agree that ZLS isnt the 2nd best team, thats the rules (applies for all regions)
Zeal esports has been disappointing after stage 2 challengers i dont really feel like they deserve the invite tbh but oh well.
APH, BREN, SBE, RRQ, Alpha Esports, NGX are my bet to get to groups.
also, i find it weird that ID, TH, and MY/SG has a 16 team group stage while PH only has an 8 team group stage. are we that small of a subregion compared to them?
true idk why but at least we finally have double elimination brackets unlike last year
yep we are always 1 step behind the other subregions when it comes to the tournament format. its either riot wanted it to be like this or mineski is just lazy when it comes to hosting the PH VCT.
It's should be on Mineski side. Riot just give the big picture, TO decides what they want to do.
i think its on mineski side
cuz in indonesia, our vct formats are organized by oneup (not riot official i think)
SS is in the lower bracket, they face the loser of APH vs RRQ, which is alr a banger matchup. i want to root for them 3 but at least 1 has to go
heres the bracket btw https://challonge.com/bndlfz6e
Bren, APH, RRQ, NAOS, SBE and AE are looking good but hopefully smaller teams upset some of them
Hahaha. They do have the bracket on their side though. They only need to beat G6 and then the winner of looking for org and new kids on the bloc.
