SEA come

I saw some tierlists and predictions putting Bren, Paper Rex, Zeta Division, Crazy Raccoons(and even F4Q sometimes) as the weakest teams in the tournament so I want your guys opinions about how strong the asian teams are and how far they can go, How you guys are feeling about JP/SEA/KR teams?

VS and F4Q can do a ton of shit. Zeta could make some small upsets. The rest seem ehh. Bren and Paper Rex can def make a name for themselves though if their duelists pop off.

Bren will suprise the group they get, trust ill come back

zeta is prob the strongest out of them

id say bren is around B tier too but maybe thats just my local bias

Yea. But they have to pop off really really hard. Like I think it's possible. But I'm not sure if they can pop off hard enough. The rest of the team just seems ehh sometimes though.

Everyone having fun until tyloo open valorant division

I think cr is the weakest team out of them all

They are not that bad but the problem is that they will most likely have to face 1EMEA and 1NA team in groups. I don't think they are on that level to compete yet. Berlin teams are just so stacked

I wouldn't be surprised if many count SEA/JP/KR as the weakest teams once again. While Reykjavik did break the stigma of these regions of being cannon fodder, they weren't wrong per se either considering that while NUTURN went far, X10 finished 7-8th, and they defeated CR in order to avoid last place. But each match that they lost, they were competitive. And it pulled a lot of eyes towards them. However, that was Reykjavik.

Berlin brings an entirely new lineup for these regions, except CR who's the sole returner from the region. There's not enough sample size on how they would perform internationally, but regionally?

VS and F4Q bring a lot of versatility and creativity that we've seen out of the KR teams, and I think that'll be the catalyst for them on performing well if needed.

ZETA and CR bring that firepower and crazy playstyles that they've shown in the past, especially ZETA since we knew them as the dominant Absolute JUPITER pre-Masters 1.

Paper Rex brings the absolute stylish, flashiest, and aggressive style that SEA is known to have. f0rsakeN, if anything, embodies that nature. Bren Esports are also in the same vein. While SEA as a whole is a melting pot of aspects of gameplay from regions around them, they've always had that aggressive, in-your-face gameplay that might catch teams down if they underestimate them. You saw how it went for Team Vikings who almost lost to X10 in Reykjavik, and many had expected a sweep.

All-in-all, I expect either VS, ZETA, and/or Paper Rex/Bren to go further into the tournament if all goes right. Do I expect them to win the entire thing? Eh, not exactly. They're still fresh onto the international stage, but y'know, don't underestimate them.

i watched bren vs prx (upper finals and grand finals) and they whiffed so much

thanks for the write up, I will keep my eye on Paper Rex and Bren.

all of qualified team are strong including asian teams. but imo tactically sea might the weakest compared to EU and NA. zeta and vs might doing some good run but im not sure with cr. my prediction sea wont go far bcs typical sea team gameplay are rely on one or two hard carry with crazy individual skills, like forsaken from paper rex and dubstep from bren, and those are the name who would stand out from sea teams. once these hard carry not perform they will struggling
