Loud would be in playoffs and the group of death wouldn't be that deadly. But the fact that giant powerhouses like OpTic and LOUD can be pushed out of the tournament so early is what makes it all fun.
Last time EMEA was nerfed so yeah, like this time guild and optic was so close, I wonder how it would go in reykavik if EMEA had full teams instead of subs.
they would not make it to finals like last time cause last time they defeated a trash EMEA team G2 who are highly inconsistent
and liquid who are 4th seed of EMEA
this time only deserving and consistent teams like XSET guild are here
