I wouldn't count it as a given that Empire wins this series even after winning game one. oh dont get me wrong i dont either. But this feels like this typical Empire stuff. Catching a tailwind for a rather short period of time only to implode at any given major tournament. Still AF has anything it takes to qualify for this Major. And I hope they will, those guys deserve it! | ||

It was a rhetorical question which I assumed it would make my argument pretty clear. It doesnt matter if Mski is slightly better or worse than AF or Empire. I'd argue that both Empire and AF are better than Mski, but thats besides the point. What it boils down to is this: Mineski gets a chance to play on a Major because SEA has their own region which exists solely because of China's isolation, while one of these two teams (AF or Empire) wont have that chance. If SEA and China are treated as separate regions, then EU+CIS should be treated as separate regions too, and like I said previously, it makes 0 sense why that shouldn't be the case considering how big and competitive these two regions are. | ||

If SA grows bigger, they should get their own region for majors. That way these underdeveloped regions will have their chance to compete against the best of the world and that will help them get better. | ||
