According to Pitt, several key changes were made:<\/p><ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">FaZe received an &ldquo;exceptional&rdquo; invite (Valve-enabled exception), even though their ranking is technically too high for this type of wildcard. &ldquo;They shouldn&rsquo;t be eligible for a wildcard invite since they&rsquo;re ranked higher than 12th,&rdquo; Pitt explained.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Two Asia qualifiers were converted into two China-only qualifiers, effectively closing the path for all other teams in the Asia region. Teams from Southeast Asia, Mongolia, or Korea now have no access.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">The North American qualifier slot was given to Europe. NA lost its qualification place, and an extra EU spot was added instead.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">The new Americas qualifier will take place in Brazil, which effectively makes it a South American qualifier. Teams from the US and Canada are left at a disadvantage.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">The global invite was removed and replaced with another European qualifier.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Invites from the July VRS were handed out before the slot structure was even announced. This allowed organizers to &ldquo;tailor&rdquo; the system around teams already invited.<\/li>\n<\/ul><blockquote class=\"custom-bq\"><div class=\"custom-bq-q\"><p>Pitt summed up the situation: In the end, we&rsquo;ll have four Chinese teams against the rest of the world.
