After watching both EMEA and Americas ascension I can objectively say that Americas level is just way superior. While EMEA is entertaining, they wouldn't reach double digits against 2G or AK for example. No need to even bring M80 into the conversation.

using a coping mechanism of your choice
It saddens me to hear you are going through a difficult time accepting this. But denial of a fact or perceiving it as "bait" is a good coping mechanism that will help you come to terms with the uncomfortable truth number2_cned_fan
My thoughts and prayers are with you 🙏
YvngKurry [#5]I mean yea the proof is literally last year’s ascension teams. Gentlem8s and Bleed were dogshit whereas G2 got something done. It will be the same thing this year
to be fair G2 are probably an outlier because they were pretty much a tier 1 team anyways, we will see this year because I don't see an ascension team from any region making an event

This is correct YvngKurry, you are a smart individual

rapiDtheLad [#4]4/8 Bait, was good at first but lost steam in the end. Learn to keep bait concise.
I'm afraid this is not bait rapiDtheLad, simply look at M8 and G2 seasons. But I understand the distraught some of you are going through.
my thoughts and prayers are with you...
Rocky54 [#13]To much tech pauses on that region can’t even watch 😭
I agree Rocky54, the production has been awful. Though, I'm afraid this doesn't correlate with the point being made.
CarnageBTC [#15]Tier1 is all that matters kiddo....havent seen any americas teams in top2 for a while
Hello CarnageBTC, I'm confused by your comment as I fail to see what message you are trying express?
We are talking about T2, so saying "Only T1 matters" is dismissive and a phrase out of place as T2 development is important, as for Americas just recently Sentinels managed to win Master Madrid. I hope this context helped to clear any confusion.

Kinda unfair comparison though. G2 was the core of The Guard and then they added Leaf once they got into VCT. The Guard had their ups and downs, but they were tier 1 level.
Bait post but it is true. The Americas teams have players with far more tier 1 potential. Apeks is the favorite to win Ascension and they're tier 1 rejects getting carried by Kaajak, who hopefully gets picked up by a different org. Apeks would be on the same level as GentleM8s. Loita, Larok and Comeback all have potential but they can't even play in tier 1.
Pacific ascension should have a quality team winning this year, China's ascension has like 2 imports per team lmao.

yea ik im just baiting LOL
cordo [#20]t2 emea clears all region t2 combined lmao
Interesting point you are trying to present cordo. Unfortunately looking at EMEA's ascended team "Gentle Mates" season and comparing it to Americas ascended team "G2" totally disproves your point.
I'm still grateful you took time to take part in this conversation.

haven't seen an EMEA team win a major event in what? A year and a half now?
