is the poor math supposed to impress me?
why don't you try comparing how some Shanghai teams made it through their regional leagues out of getting teams that can barely keep up with the rest?
take a look at how Americas just started and G2, a Shanghai "top contender" (as you claim), has only so far had 2 wins on Clown9 and a brand new NRG
is that the top contender level you defend so much?
the skill gap between teams like 100T and G2 vs teams like SEN, LOUD and LEV is in favor of the latter, simply because those last 3 have more potential, the only reason they had a chance was because its difficult to stay consistent after a big win like the one SEN had
g2? lev? TH? fnatic? Fut? all those teams haven't lost a game but that's "barely decent" according to your, clearly, high IQ.
G2 has only played two weaker rivals out of which only KRU ever really has a chance but rarely manage to focus up on important games
LEV, like I said, is the only other team apart from SEN, LOUD and 100T (vaguely) that has a potential to be good
I dont talk about MEMEA teams because evidently your league is just a Disney show set up for laughs, its a much more terrible competition than the one in Pacific. In other words, NA > Pacific > MEMEA
The only shot that MEMEA had at making it big international after FNC dominating last year was Shanghai were the only real competition was GenG and (again, vaguely) 100T.
even then, it just goes to show how lucky TH was to get 2 terrible Chinese teams to get out of swiss stage, opposite to Madrid were they had to play PRX and SEN, only to Travel Home before they had a chance to prove anything. LOL
also, SEN had to deal with a worse GenG? maybe thats because SEN as a whole was on the same level as them and ended up proving that they were better, poor TH only managed to get 2 wins on their worst maps and then couldnt get more than 4 rounds on the last 2 LMFAO
again, I guess this is just common knowledge that cant be taught to an island boy with a femboy complex
but thats the hard truth, so sorry you overrate your team despite their "success" being thanks to China unable to keep up and the competition being incredibly worse than the previous tournament
I rest my case
