Double the prize pool, 4 seeded paid trips 4 unseeded and 24 spots for challenger. The dream to save the eu boys

Not sure if memeing but tbh its dumb that EU being far more competetive and having far more superior players gets equal treatment as other regions. Unlucky better luck in the next life :(

NA only deserves 1 spot for neeb. EU deserves 24 seeds and 64 man challenger bracket.

Im going to be edgy as fuck here but yeah, other regions SHOULD have less spots. They have less players on the same level as EU so why should they get the same? as far as i know (correct me if im wrong) oceania already only has 2 spots.

From Valencia, performance for top 4 EU: 2 players Group stage 3 1 player Ro16 1 player wins(serral) NA: 2 players Group Stage 3 1 player ro16 1 player ro8.(neeb) Take away neeb and serral and it's identical performance. Austin was pretty similar I believe.

why are you comparing top 4, that's not what he was saying. The NA vs EU argument has never been that the top 4 of EU are far superior than the top 4 of NA, it's about everyone else. there are 30 players in EU that are as good or better than the rest of your top 8 (4-8th)

Because optimus specifically referenced the spots and the spots are only relevant to the players that make it there. I know your point wasn't removing "spots" from challenger overall but optimus was saying reduce top 4 NA qualify to less and give those to EU.

Well to be fair i wasnt refering specificly to NA but more so the other WCS regions in general but yeah. I still stand by that EU should get some spots of the other regions

I agree that it is rough and a problem right now for EU but I think taking spots from other regions just moves the problem. All the other regions are top 2 and seems a bit rough to any of them to make it "top 1".

For the record i mean that europe challenger should have more spots, not direct qualification. The 16 man bracket should IMO be a 32 man fiesta in europe and well thats probably gonna be at the cost of other regions. I dont mean specificly that NA should only have 2 direct seeds.

  Oh this I'm totally in favor of, though I dunno what payout would look like. Top 32 getting paid out may add a lot of money required for Challenger, but if you mean taking the money away from top 16 of other regions then maybe but that also feels a little weird to me.
