Let's refrain from assumption in respect of the family and loved ones, please.

Community LANs made it much better. The venue in particular have hosted major ID LANs in the past prior to Valorant. If you ever heard Indonesians calling the venue BOOM's home, because BOOM has several champions crowned in multiple events hosted in the past. The venue has history, tied into Indonesian esports.

Obviously, we want a bigger venue, but considering this was a gauge to see what was the interest for an ID LAN was? People were crowding the venue, sitting down, standing up; and we all loved the experience (being someone who attended IRL as well.)

We love the game, and for sure, we are gonna get damn rowdy about it. I hope next LAN it'll be on a more proper/accomodating venue- but I have a feeling it won't be a loss if it's in the mall again.

Hey everyone! Just dropping by to mention that Pacific, LATAM, and China team flairs are updated with VCL, International Leagues, and FGC teams!

Bali Dota Major is a scam, imo. A tourist attraction. Sold out = probably a part of it is sold to grifters and resellers.

Better Jakarta than Bali.

It was rumored, but it was clear the concern became "What if the academy team wins Ascension?" That's probably why teams didn't register Academy teams to Challengers. But Leo did say Riot is looking into integrating Academy teams into the ecosystem in some ways, so look out for that.

Yep.

Most likely, yes. However, if let's say, Bleed qualified for Pacific, they don't need to change anything since all of their players fall under the Pacific region.

THE TOKYO POOLS ARE BULLSHIT HOLY FUCK

posted 10 months ago

Except when you realize those two teams were the top 2 teams in the most recent FGC event prior to LOCK//IN (so even if EDG and FPX were the most prepared immediately, the two teams had a reason to represent China.)

In regards to your doubt, do remember that a lot (and I mean a lot) of people were hot on 100T (having won RBHG) and KC (a top VRL team + Scream and Nivera) and most of the fans were talking down on both EDG and FPX. Regardless of the shitshow the former two teams had in their respective leagues, the fact that China didn't exactly keel down and die showed fans and investors alike that these teams are worth the investment and development, and giving them the boost they needed might be the right thing to do to put them on the map.

But I do see where you are coming from, so agree to disagree.

Pick'ems are updated with Oceania and Vietnam

I mean, China/EDG qualified to Champions by merit of dominating the East Asian LCQ last year, so giving them more opportunity based on record isn't exactly out of the question. Plus, they already have representatives for Tokyo, so the next step is Champions. It's not like Riot is simply inviting these teams to fill the slot, they are competing for the Champions slot anyway.

EDG went toe-to-toe with 100T during LOCK//IN and FPX showed flashes of brilliance during their match against KC. If they aren't given more international (or even pan-regional experience,) they will be left behind.

No, he's saying because China have been building their underground scene with minimal support from Riot for the past three years (barring 2022), they're putting China on a kickstart motor to give the region a chance to catch up in terms of international exposure and experience ahead of their official launch.

Ah yeah, possible

No. EDG and NAVI shouldn't be able to be grouped together

Whoops, I accidentally swapped it around. It's EDG/FUT and ASE/NAVI mb

Yeah, me and Suzy have kinda brainstormed the seeding together so he's pretty much correct.

Repost:

Okay so to make things simple, the Masters Group Pool are:

Pool 3: NRG, DRX
Pool 4: ASE, FUT
Pool 5: EG, T1
Pool 6: EDG, NAVI

For Tokyo, Riot is indeed adopting the Worlds seeding rules, where each region will only have one representative each in their respective groups, so each group will have:

Americas
EMEA
Pacific
China

And that is final for both groups.

Now, because each Pool has a mirror of itself (AM/PAC and EMEA/CN), we can at least assume there's a 90% chance that:

EDG and FUT will be in the same group
ASE and NAVI will be in the same group
NRG and T1 will be in the same group
EG and DRX will be in the same group

It's just a matter which AM/PAC pair will be placed alongside the EMEA/CN pair.

Actually, there's quite a number of Chinese users that have knowledge of VLR. I think most of the Chinese teams access VLR often, to my knowledge

I don't know about FGC, but Challengers Roster Construction Rules said it just need the majority of the home region for the rosters. (ie, if you have 7 players, 4 needs to be from the home region)

Here's the screenshot of the TW/HK rules. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1004473129709613166/1072846733014470726/image.png

It does, iirc there's a rule within Challengers TW/HK that stated if you started playing in the TW/HK region, you'll count as an import if you play/moved to China (and vice versa)
