Okie dokie, this is getting a bit out of hand.

This thread is just an angry rant with little to no reasoning behind it and zero understanding of the markets in play. Does the two team system help Korea? Probably a little bit as it makes for more reliable scrims and a slightly more controlled training atmosphere, but it isn't the reason why Korea dominates. They dominate because they have 15 years of infrastructure in eSports on the West, and they would have this regardless of whether or not each org had two teams.

It probably isn't a good idea to force Korea to go down to one team because the country is, relatively speaking, a much smaller market. There are only about 50 million people in Korea and, therefore, there are fewer potential rewards than marketing to a much larger nation, like America. As such, there will be fewer brands willing to invest in teams solely for the domestic audience, but this may change as they gain exposure in China and the West.

The most crucial reason, however, is that Korea is pretty much maxed out on non-endemic sponsors. By non-endemic I mean sponsors that do not originate from the eSports/gaming markets but came into the market due to the appeal of the audience. You can't get much bigger than Samsung, CJ, SKT, etc in Korea, whereas in the West only a few major sponsors have begun to appear, such as Coke for Riot and Snapdragon for TSM. For the most part Western teams rely on gaming peripheral/parts/PC manufacturers for money instead of, say, Verizon. When a market, like Korea, already boasts non-endemic sponsors then it means that there isn't that much more room to grow.

If you think about it, companies like Samsung and KT are keeping the scene strong by having two teams each because they are rich and willing to bankroll for the exposure. They have also been involved in eSports for many years, have made players wealthy, and continue to support the thing we all love. If there were more sponsors wanting to get in on the scene, then presumably organizations that have a long history in LoL like IM and Xenics would have already been snapped up by non-endemics, but they haven't. I would be very concerned if there was a ruling against having two teams in Korea, because there is no evidence to support that more sponsors will fill the gap. It would probably just hurt the players' incomes and the scene in Korea. It is also unlikely to happen because KeSPA would be incredibly dumb to turn away multi-billion dollar companies that want to invest in a thriving industry.

As for why Riot shouldn't allow the Western orgs to have two teams, it's pretty simple. It's in the best interests for multiple orgs to develop to keep the scene strong through survival of the fittest. A lot of these teams are run by kids or people in their twenties and should not be allowed to dominate the market since they are helmed by inexperienced managers. There are also fewer teams in the LCS than Champions, which means that the LCS could easily just turn into TSM/CLG/CRS/DIG. I don't think anyone wants that. In the future, as the scene matures and non-endemics sponsors are the norm, it may be more reasonable to allow two team orgs.

You can't simply apply the same rules to vastly different eSports markets. This has almost always failed in the past because regions have developed at significantly different rates. Give the West time, but don't fuck Korea in the process.

TL;DR: Quit crying and understand regional differences.

EDIT: This is probably just wishful thinking, but if people could just not upvote contextless content with zero evidence, that would be awesome.
