Recently: Liquid’s Invitation to BLAST Rivals

Liquid, the top-ranked team in both Asia and North America, has been invited to participate in the upcoming BLAST Rivals event as an Asian representative, a decision that has raised eyebrows given the team’s regional standing.

The source indicates that the competition chose Liquid in an attempt to provide diversity in representation, favoring them as an Asian team while selecting Wildcard as the representative for North America, potentially overlooking teams like FlyQuest.

Insights from Complexity’s General Manager, messioso:
“Despite Liquid’s ranking, the decision reflects BLAST’s commitment to inclusivity in competition.”
