Thorin & Loco vs Worlds 2018 Episode 2 : NA LCS - feat Jatt

No but if Africa wins the next 30 worlds then there definitely will be a question mark behind what could have been in S1-8 if they had a scene. There are worlds wins but not all worlds wins are equal.

It's the same reason that even championships in traditional sports like Hockey and Basketball are worth less when they were won back when the number of teams competing were counted in the single digits. Sure they are still prestigious but they are definitely not the same weight.

Trying to argue that it is still a 'World Championship' when most of the world wasn't even competing is only true from a technical sense and is kind of a sad argument to be made tbh (and I'm not sure it's even right in a technical sense since the actual label for the event didn't have 'world' in it). The fact that many fans, especially of fnatic, can only argue semantics instead of quality of event, caliber of competition, level of gameplay, etc is pretty telling.
