updated from the last one, because once again I'm bored
Japan
One of the most overrated region in the pacifics, Everyone knows that ZETA run on reykjavik was a fluke and yet people keep saying "don't underestimate JP bro, remember their run on reykjavik?" I guarantee you that no teams from JP would ever do shit like that again. the only reason people root for this region is because they're a weeb and japan is literally never good at any esports ever. if there will be a good team from japan is probably because they are getting carried by koreans just like how meteor carry NTH.
Phillippines
The only good team from this region is Team Secret outside of that it's just a cesspool of T2 APAC teams that are not even worth mentioning. Their last year's Champions run was a fluke and it's because they had an easy group. yeah they good and experienced at LAN but that's just because their roster are old as fuck and because of that their aim and firepower can't keep up with other T1 teams nowadays.
And now even players from their region in RRQ are stealing paychecks to compete in franchising, when that same team isn't even that good in PH itself, let alone competing in the Pacifics.
Their region had one of the most shallow and weakest talent pool in all Pacifics and the ones are good are old as fuck and would be washed like one year from now. So no need to be worry about them, they would die out eventually.
Thailand
Ever since Pati left this region has become dogshit, and throughout VCT Xerxia always become PRX's bitch. This year without Pati they still managed to qualify to every international LAN but never reached playoffs. They're just a bunch of onliners who can't do shit at LAN. And now they need to cling on foreign org (Talon) to sign TH players (they are now even opening submission for ranked players, lmao what a joke) and Pati to comeback to valorant or otherwise this region will become more irrelevant than it is now.
Vietnam and Hongkong/Taiwan
Literally none existent, no one outside people from that region can even name a single player from there, I mean no players from there would be in the Pacifics league anyways so who the fuck cares
Indonesia
Their fans always talks about f0rsaken like he's one of the best players in the world when in fact he's not even top 5, even top 10 is still a bit of a stretch. And honestly f0rsaken is kinda overrated, Jinggg was always the one who carried PRX but somehow ppl thinks that f0rsaken is the best player on the team.
And their fans are too obnoxious thinking that they're the best region in APAC when in fact their region outside of this year's LCQ has never been to top 3 in APAC playoffs. The only reason they did well in this year's LCQ is because TS and Bleed choked hard, especially bleed in that lower final match against ONIC. Their fans thinks that they had the best players from APAC just because their region had one good tournament and their players are just a bunch of onliners who always dropped the ball when it matters the most.
Thank god RRQ signing more PH players than ID players, because let's be honest, full 5 ID players won't do shit at LAN they all are just a bunch of chokers and their fans will keep sucking their dicks and making tons of excuses when their team loses. and they need foreign players like in paper rex when jinggg carrying f0rsaken and mindfreak to be somewhat good internationally. and even then their fans would be like "uhm, actually, jinggg is half indonesian π€" lmao what a fucking joke of a region
Oceania
They literally have no fans and their teams is also dogshit. so who the fuck cares about them
Korea
Korea is literally a one team region. every player outside of DRX is just a bunch of ranked instalock duelist who thinks that they could go pro. there's a reason why orgs from there are building an international roster. sorry bro but having more coaches than players won't actually help you guys win. just go back to Overwatch lol
Singapore/Malaysia
Paper Rex it's just a one time thingy, it's just so happens that three of their players peaked at the same time and they had this gimmicky strat that are clearly unsustainable. Once teams figured out how to counter them they can't do anything, just look at their match against Leviathan n champions lol.
and for Bleed your social media manager tries too hard to be the G2 of APAC with the whole being 'edgy' thing where it's just makes them more hated on top of the need to rely on Imports to play for your team. and outside of the team who lucked their way to win and the cringe rich org who had no fans at all, nothing worth mentioning about this shitty region, oh and at this point just rename the region to singapore because malaysian players are dogshit outside of d4v4i, even d4v4i is still arguable for being dogshit
South Asia
Have one of the most vocal fans in the Pacifics when their team is so fucking bad, their best team never even touch playoffs in APAC. always overhyping players when everyone on earth knows that no players from that region can be considered a tier 1 player. Even bringing Ayrin and WRONSKI wouldn't save GE if they still keep any SA players from their team, and yes, that includes SKRossi, the one that their fans always claim to be "top 5 Opers in APAC" when he himself is busy dying from the most stupidest shit let alone actually OPing.
The only reason Riot would pay attention to this god forsaken region (pun intended) is because they know the potential market of fans from this region. They couldn't care less about how dogshit their teams is in VCT. They only care about how to represent this region in VCT so that their future fans would watch their esports scene. but if GE somehow keep any SA players in their roster at least we know which team is gonna be in last place.
China
EDG was an onliner and a bootleg PRX, people hyping them up saying that they will be the next big thing at the start of champions when they quickly got 0 2'd. I don't fucking care if Valorant is not even released yet in China, their region is cursed to ever be good at FPS. so just stick to MOBAs lol. players from there are probably would never go to the pacifics and daddy tencent is probably gonna make your own league anyway in the future if valorant was ever gonna released in there so yeah who tf cares about them.
