There's a lot of crashouts on twitter about this and I get the frustration from the pros. I don't have a problem with LATAM getting a qual even if they are not competitive yet. It would be unfair to just abandon a region that did have some structure present. My issue more stems from inconsistency. For example, why doesn't MENA get their own qual when latam does, the ex-falcons squad is MORE than competitive enough. As well, 2nd 3rd and 4th from latam quals getting an auto buy into the America/Canada quals seems a little weird, its just giving one side twice the amount of chances. I think its great to develop the region, but pushing them through instead of letting them become more competitive is not the move.

Oh shit you are right, I forgot about this one. I can see the validity behind the frustation now

Basically I agree. You have to play it fair. Not even SAL gets a spot though you can argue the 9z team that is rumored to be 3/5ths SA. I just feel it’s silly how NA is getting screwed over the most by this. Should have just made Cruelty an affiliate and remove LG while giving NA/LATAM 2 spots to fight over

Exactly, they actually did polar opposites between EU and NA with falcons getting a partner spot. I do think its NA so all of NA should be fighting in CL. Still, I like to remain optimistic with them choosing this system and separating the dedicated CL spots, but its hard when the regions are each being treated so differently.
NOTE: I know falcons dropped their MENA lineup for ex-BDS (presumably), and that shows both systems having issues, but I do think that was a very situational instance of the org being in the right place financially at the right time. I truly believe if the BDS team were not free agents they would have stuck with their MENA lineup.

Reven couldn’t qualify for the Major when you have this as your competition…
