You're pointing and laughing at each other about regions, while looking down on others, but can't you see farther than your noses?

The main problem here is that you don't or cannot comprehend why some regions are better than others. The main issue is how the eSports scene is perceived, like there is a country in Europe where eSports as a whole isn't regulated by law (seen as gambling); where players struggles to practice with their CSGO teams, because they need to have a job besides to afford a living? Simply put, a player and a team cannot improve in a small region/ country with a few OK teams, like SEA or with an organisation with fewer resources. As an example, if you put the Brazilians to play in NA/EU for like 1 year, they would need to adapt to the meta faster because the teams they're playing against would destroy them... So, they need to change to improve... and here comes the fierce competition, which always helps you to improve. They ran the same comps until now because it always worked in BR, and they thought that it will be the same at Masters 2, until they hit the wall.

Same thing happened with Soniqs, when they moved to NA from SEA. One player from their team, pl1xx, literally said on his stream when they were about to face Sentinels in VCT that they will win, only because their raw aim is better... That was not the case, but little by little, they're improving, even if they're a T2 team right now.

I think confidence when you play on a team is good. You don't want to go into a game already defeated mentally. You need a strong mental game to be good at the game professionally, even if that is thinking you are good enough to beat teams you really shouldn't have a chance against. Look at what happened to TL against Version 1 on Heaven. Once their mental was done, the match was over, even though TL is obviously a better team than they showed in that map.

You have a really good point there about confidence. Usually weaker teams, when they go up against better ones, they will always have that mental issue holding them back, which may improve a little their performance.

About TL, the main problem there is that they do not have a stable in-game leader. That's why when they morale is down really bad, they do not know how to reset. And if you ask me, an IGL is way more important in VALORANT than in CS, right now. Why? Because in CS everyone have the same utilities and everyone knows how to execute a site or use a smoke/fb. While Valorant is a little more complex, utility-wise.
