I put it with West Europe for ergonomics but #20 and #21

Yeah that would make sense but I wanted the 4 letter names lol

More leagues (in my opinion):
VCT NA (USA + Canada)
VCT LATAM (Brazil + Latin America)
VCT WEME (West Europe + Middle East)
VCT EECA (East Europe + CIS + Africa)
VCT EA (Japan + South Korea + Taiwan + HK)
VCT CN (China mainland)
VCT EAPAC (Philippines + Indonesia + OCE + Singapore)
VCT WAPAC (Vietnam + Thailand + India + Malaysia)

Qualifying 2 from every league would get you 16 teams and if you wanted less you could just do semi international qualifiers by pairing up leagues

I can fix it

Exactly!

Probably around 2026

If you don't know anything about them just put FPX 1st and go down the list...

Maybe you'd want to get that checked?

You too! Hope that helps :)

It's the biology student in me...

Harold deserves it more

Okay but still it's a good amount

Go watch WOL aluba (balua)

Yeah but regardless of what it can or cannot break the erect state is only temporary and the erectile tissue that composes the phallus itself is fundamentally soft.

Not really. I think you're hinting at the male phallus during an erect state but at the end of the day it's still just a muscle with no exoskeleton so while it may seem "hard", it's actually still soft.

Because humans have their skeletal structure on the interior of the body? Humans just do be soft like that.

It's truly a cruel and unforgiving industry

Lol. I changed my flag because the USA holds a special place in my heart and plus I have been awarded honorary american status by a certain dignified individual. I'll return to Italia quando il torneo sarà finito Italy when the tournament is over.

I spent 7 hours outside today

100T winning would be cinema. Boostio deserves another trophy.

Kaquka thought it would be 5head to connect Twisten's passing to this Boaster shebang.

Probably digging my grave here with every word I type but to be fair it's her boyfriend who's getting flamed (for justifiable reasons), so it's more to her than just "oh as public figure I should speak out against hate". I think her thought process would be more of "My SO works hard and loves the game and you guys suck for hating like this".

Yeah it's hypocritical and rather unprofessional to act this way but if c0m's dad (just an example) was in yinsu's place (desk person) and he only spoke out against c0m recieving hate to help his son wouldn't it be the same?

Despite all circumstances, I think we do have to consider the personal/emotional factors that go into these decisions.

Also there was no need to bring Twisten into any of this.

I share your sentiment :(

It's temporary.

These eyes will not be blinded by the lights

Largest Esport scene + most potential profit.

If you want a successful event in Italy, you should probably look to a bigger city like Milan or even Rome.

Bear with me for a bit.

It was meant to be a short-term gig at first because Psion awarded me with "honorary American" status, but NA's been winning ever since so he told me to keep it for a bit longer.

Mark my words they're going to hold Champs 26 in China.

Pretty sure CN casters just called him "little fat" during Evo series + Ascension

Just don't use your hands...

That won't work

That's why I'm putting more blame on After than on Haodong. After's job is to prepare the team for matches and keep them in line with the winning vision during tactical timeouts and half time and all that jazz but Haodong's job is to keep the other players in line with the vision mid game.

EDG has not been putting up competitive series, and while the strategies and tactics After makes are clearly one of the main aspects to point out when understanding their failures, we should also look at Haodong.

I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt but when you keep losing games with less than six rounds, there's clealy something wrong with the mental. And like you said, since someone like Haodong is meant to be the mental stability in the team, he's clearly not been doing the best handling that role. Regardless, I'll let it off this time because I think After's mediocre strats are affecting his calling, but if they sack After and this persists then they start looking at Haodong.

But yeah you're right that chemistry is so important that it's hard to even consider dropping an IGL like Haodong who's been with EDG since 2021 if I recall correctly.

tldr: Yeah

Let NathanD cook

DRG underperforming is understandable, FPX showing off their progress was amazing, but EDG was just disappointing.
Here's how to fix these teams:
DRG - More international experience
FPX - Make minor adjustments (mainly regarding defense + reading intelligent players)
EDG - Do something about the leading, whether it be After or Haodong. If they can find an IGL that can call well and frag well then it would be amazing because while Haodong usually has good calling (assuming After's weird strats and tactics affected him this tournament), his aim/mechanics isn't nearly good enough to help EDG be as good as they can be. Chichoo and Nobody are good for their roles but I think you could consider finding better replacements. The issue with getting rid of any one of the team members is that I'm afraid it'll mess with the chemistry and teamwork. As I see it After is the main issue because he's trying to do things that firstly aren't working, secondly isn't working, and thirdly probably will never work.

There's the fix.

I think it'd be cool if the 2 EMEA leagues you proposed would be split like this:
WEME (West Europe + Middle East)
and
EECA (East Europe + CIS + Africa)

To be fair I'm all down for FPX pioneering CN's future.

I think some of the critics are being a bit more than "slightly" negative.

No DRG, TE, would stomp EDG, with Nova and AG possibly beating them if they plan to perform like this again.

China is too big to combine with APAC. Additionally they can't and never will because of laws and regulations...

Psion!

Yeah probably not but stax is goated in terms of IGLing

They looked like an amputated garbageman with no arms struggling to use his legs to get the 10kg sack of glass into the truck.

Not even an opinion it's just a fact. FPX played highly entertaining Valorant.

They should sign stax

APAC: PRX
CN: EDG
EMEA: TL
AMER: LEV

Not necessarily because it seems to have been a mistake/accident on your part. Some simple clarification should do just fine in my opinion.
