Nah, seems like they're set on making it so. For example, in League, what was formerly LMS (HK/TW) got merged with SEA Tour into the Pacific Championship Series (PCS), combining SEA with HK/TW. Another example now is the WCS Masters (HK/TW), which is part of the Wild Rift Champions SEA, the official WR esports circuit for Southeast Asia.

They're already tied to the SEA ecosystem within Riot anyways barring political reasons

There is an APAC North for LCQ

Yep, University of Las Vegas

That I agree. What I don't is just blatant shittalking to Riot and the related parties without any depth or solid reasoning behind it.

Hey, I didn't call anyone stupid. You're telling me that. I'm just saying every one of us here, including TO, will have our own understanding of the rules one way or another. Misinterpretation and misunderstandings have happened, and it's not an unusual thing. I'm not taking anyone's side here, but please stop blaming only one side here. Nobody wanted this.

Don't. Don't encourage things like these.

Remember; different TOs, potential of different regional rules, interpretations, and implications. I'm not trying to side with them, but trying to shed a light.

Different TOs, chances of different interpretations or implementations of the rules.

I know. And I'm sure I'll say that if it affects a team I have a liking towards. But it's one thing being a fan, and another being objective about the situation.

Before all of you call it unfair or any other reason on trying to bring justice to XERXIA; Just remember that League Ops are working within the boundaries of the rules. We don't know what's happening behind the scenes, both from the the TO's end or the teams' end. Don't point fingers.

You can be angry; but don't be stupid.

Seoldam's on the streamer team, not the pro team

SUUUUUUREELY

I have heart attacks watching that 2nd half

I'm sorry. I'm just doing as much as I could. I'll try to do better.

Nope, it's not an exploit. Sleepy (ex-AE) showed that it's possible without it.

Leads to toxicity which nobody wants.

Fellas, chill. Don't make me lock this thread.

Please. Just please. Don't say that.

Nah you're good, let's make the site a better place!

I'm just a bit tired angered looking at threads and posts

Nah. He returned back to CS with NKT. He's taking a break now from esports altogether

I told you if GE doesn't respect Griffin, they'll bite themselves in the ass

Hell no. You are accusing something so greatly, that I'm offended by it. I was the one who updated it in real-time, but I fell asleep in the middle of the match. My apologies. Apparently, I only care about a particular region.

But this also extends to my fellow mods as well. Do not accuse them of something terrible just because we didn't update something in real-time due to IRL responsibilities.

Every flair will be messed up resolution-wise somewhat, I'll try to fix it

No Bleed flair was a while. I just had updated it now

All Challengers APAC Playoffs participants now have flairs. . .

History? Culture? Community? Granted you can say that with the other clubs, but you can deny how deep, rooted, and big Persija is within Jakarta's community and culture not just in football over 90 years at this point. It's a good thing nonetheless for a team like BWL to be picked up by an org like Persija.

Um, that's a big team regardless?

Say what you want (I won't deny their past doings) but the team has an immense fanbase. It's a big team. It's still the darling of Jakarta and the surrounding region.

No, it wasn't. It happened after the tech pause. Look at the scores.

Nah, it doesn't really affect as much because they lost the round anyway

That's the thing. I'm not blaming PPGL, if anything. It's just after VCT PH, people like to hark on them. Just remember that APAC LCQ last year happened.

LCQ is honestly worse.

Think if the LA Lakers (or any top clubs) signed a very good unsigned team that just qualified for Challengers Playoffs

I did make the page since it is shown on the official broadcast; by all means, it is confirmed more or less. For now, the team page will stay up. If it doesn't happen, I'll revert. There's no announcement for now.

The T is VCT is Technical Pause.

My take: There's a chance Griffin can take this, especially if Global Esports doesn't respect them. I've been on record saying HK/TW has the least stability of all SEA, but looking at Griffin in particular with how much their experiences are worth, it can be a 2-1 victory if once again, Global doesn't respect their opponent and play down to their competition.

Whoops I meant 4.04, dunno how I get 4.06

There were rumblings of APAC using 4.04 a couple of days ago, but I don't know how reliable is the source

Edit: I am not a psychic but I am a sleep-deprived person.

They're not revealed yet.

Because technically, this isn't a VCT-sanctioned event nor is Valorant officially released in China. The NPPA freeze is still in place, and teams and orgs are just running these third-party events. However for this, it benefits with the official Valorant Esports channel of China starting to pop up on Twitter.

Because it hasn't been released yet.

again, who cars is a Danish team. You're missing an entire continent now.

Lower bracket except the finals doesn't have them

so why did you
