📉The cost of the SWC news isn’t financial—it’s the health of the games.
Prioritizing Sponsored players over actual Top players for KOFXV and SamSho is a massive disconnect from the Communities who built a foundation for this tour. A $4.2M circuit means nothing if the games aren't supported and the qualifying process is "pay-to-play."
🚩 Major Disconnect & Massive Disappointment:
Resources vs. Support: KOFXV & SAMSHO need dedicated dev teams for fixing lobbies, ongoing DLC & subsequent balancing, with some QoL, not mid-circuit additions of KOF98/AoF3.
Skill vs. Sponsorship: Forcing a professional travel model on SamSho and KOFXV excludes the very communities that built them.
Phony Competition: Determining a "Top 8" based on travel budget rather than skill destroys the integrity of the tour.
🛑Stop pleasing people who don't play the game and start listening to the community that makes this tour possible.
There are better solutions SNK. Please reconsider.

we are the Community that supports their games,
we are the Community that can help if they will listen: ✍️ https://t.co/DLr572O1XY
