KC, TH got grouped so it doesn't matter how many teams are close in skill cuz all of them would've got grouped xd
ballistA [#7]EU matches are a legitimate snoozefest. this series was incredibly competitive and LEV is a good team with high power fire its not surprising they can beat SEN
nice cope though
lev played so well today
Gutssz [#8]no lower in kickoff
no bo5fluke event
"No bo5" just admit you didn't watch the games after all the EU teams got eliminated

kickoff tournaments dont meaan shit tbh, NAVI should've been the one playing in madrid but they were practically playing against a new team which is why a double elim bracket wouldve been better.And FUT had to play both KC and TH but they're undoubtedly much better now.Basically, first time matchups dont mean shit, we saw that in geng vs sen game

What does this have to do with the OP's point? How does that make EMEA a superior region??

You didnt understand my point.EMEA didnt have their better teams show up at madrid. TH and KC bombed out early purely because of inexperience(not because they were a bad team) while a team like NAVI would've made top 3 given their insane chemistry. SEN's biggest advantage is that they already have players who have been through it all. They got 2 major winners(Sacy and tenz) and even zekken whose been to int events before. Before commenting on anything i suggest you to stop using one tournament , that too a fucking kickoff tournament as a metric to how shit or good a region is....

Navi lost to an "inexperienced" team. How are they gonna top 3 against world class teams? lol
VI0LENCE [#22]The difference is that americas teams has some talent.
OP is right though.
And EMEA has talents, you might not like what will happen at Shanghai's Bronzilian friend.

TH already knew the team they were playing very well while NAVI was pretty much playing a new team.Its like what happened with sentinels when they got beat by geng and then beat them again in the gf. In a double elim format i doubt TH would be qualifying
Cacachocolat [#25]OP is right though.
And EMEA has talents, you might not like what will happen at Shanghai's Bronzilian friend.
EMEA grouped again?
I watch EMEA games, they're way worse than pacific and americas games
masonhil [#18]"No bo5" just admit you didn't watch the games after all the EU teams got eliminated
i think he meant the qualification games for kickoffs

he's only half right, the inconsistency in EMEA is overblown, but LEV is also just a really fucking inconsistent team. I've said before (idk in VLR or not) that the only teams that could beat SEN in americas right now are LOUD, NRG, and LEV (i was excluding the 100T game because of John being gone but it didn't end up mattering).
EMEA has a top 5 that can all beat each other
Liquid & FNC (idfk what to do with these teams)
and a bottom 4 that can also all beat each other.
AMER has
a solidified top 3 (idk abt LOUD because they missed 2 weeks, exceptions available for them)
a #4 in 100T that is somewhere in between the top 3 and the rest of the pack
a 5-9 that is all very close from what it seems
EG who can only do something via anti stratting
and Furia who need MW and NZR to both drop 40 to have a chance
ECMango [#34]say bro with sen flair 💀💀💀
what exactly are you trying to do here ecmango? your team don't even have a fanbase to give upvotes for you when say dumbass shit
