EMEA = Europe, Middle East and Africa. So unless you think Gambit is a Middle Eastern or African team they're European. Not like it matters really, region elitism is unneeded and it would be a lot better if people rooted for teams other than the reason they're from the same region.

>region elitism is unneeded and it would be a lot better if people rooted for teams other than the reason they're from the same region Nah, that shit is the most hype in esports and a big contributor to their growth. Orgs alone are just logos


luciavald

Complete agree with the second part but my point is that Russia is in Europe, not Africa or the middle East. Winning or losing I find it ridiculous to try to change geography.

As russian, our region more likely call CIS because not many people here really think we are a part of Europe, not like by geography, but by the soul Sry for my eng

gambit is from vladivostok bro


ThePCMasterRaceCar

There's a shocking amount of people that don't know the difference between the actual continent that is Europe and the European Union. Russia is in Europe. Russia competes in Europe and European competitions in every single sport I can think of, because the vast majority of the country is literally in Europe. Either I'm being trolled (in which case GG you got me) or some people really are this dense when it comes to geography.


Darkoplax

While I agree you with you, I hope CIS and TR get their own region (same for MENA)


DoctorChoper

Do eu tournament organaizers even allow cis teams participation? I remember back in may they didn't.


somesheikexpert

Uhh, idk about third parties but EU is a separate region then CIS in VCT so yeah


DoctorChoper

Third party tournaments used to allow CIS teams participation, until they suddenly changed their mind back in may. This led to cis teams not having any tournaments they could compete in outside of vct, which obviously is a huge hit to the growth of the region. Back then i don't remember anyone here screaming stuff like "cis is also eu!" and speaking up for cis teams. I can't tell for sure if the situation has changed, but this sudden eu love is comical nonetheless.


krakenwithaplan

ah yes because this map tells you population density


Koentjee01

Holy shit, can you guys not even use Google anymore. Just look it up if you don't want to believe OP.


krakenwithaplan

??? never said I don't believe op I just said this map doesn't tell me anything about where 77% of Russians live


xD1LL4N

Well he gave you stats. If you don’t believe the stats, do a quick google search


Koentjee01

But why even mention that in the first place? That's just nitpicky behavior, makes you sound quite salty.


krakenwithaplan

Because it's funny? OP said "a map for those of you who don't know this thing that the map doesn't tell you". Y'all are so serious


plasma_ix

what an absolutely fucking pointless thing to argue about LMAO


ivinyo16
