List your dark horse team for 2025
I team similar to TH last year, where they make it far in almost every event
patuj [#23]I don't think they will make every event or even make it super far in EMEA, but Gentle Mates. I think they will do well even with roster full of unproven talent.
zyppan only experienced player tho so not necessarily full
PeterGriffin [#3]BOOM
Pffff HAHAAHAHAHQHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHQHQHQHHQHQHQHQHQ stop joking man. Can't even win ascension.
koromast [#28]americas: furia
emea: gentle mates
apac: dfm (they building a great roster imo)
cn: idk jdg?
idk why nobody is mentioning actual dark horses btw everyone just mentioning teams which were top 5 of their region last year or that had a decent run atleast once in the year.
jdg isnt really a darkhorse they were top 6 in china
i prefer a team like TEC for china esp if they pick haodong
GambleNats [#34]jdg isnt really a darkhorse they were top 6 in china

top 6 aint that high imo but you right being fair, i could say wolves if anything ig
catNmouse [#16]Americas = 2G, NRG, 100T, LOUD, G2
EMEA = FNATIC, KC, M8, KOI, GX
APAC = DRX, RRQ, TALON, PRX
CN = Trace, FPX, TEC, JDGSo many good teams next year itβs hard to say which one is which
these are not dark horse teams lol, majority of the teams you listed are known strong rosters/international contenders
koromast [#36]top 6 aint that high imo but you right being fair, i could say wolves if anything ig
yeah wolves is a good pick
TrashTalkerV2 [#31]Pffff HAHAAHAHAHQHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHQHQHQHHQHQHQHQHQ stop joking man. Can't even win ascension.

pinoy talking LOL
kaninv [#4]don't know if it counts but DRX is cooking
also excited about the new c9 roster
DRX groups merchant and c9 regional merchants
cloudberry [#6]One of ZETA or Sin Prisa
Zeta sucks.There are just FL which can't even win the Japan qualifying round.
Every FL player are overrated

You're a hater, FENNEL was one of the best T2 teams in APAC and would've easily made Ascension if there was an LCQ (them and MiTH)
Convoy [#45]DRX groups merchant and c9 regional merchants
isn't that the point of new rosters and being hype? it's that you are hoping they move from groups merchants to playoffs merchants and regional merchants to group merchants

I'm Japanese and have been watching vcj for a long time. FL is a clown who only wins split1 and is inconsistent.I don't trust any FL member except syouta. clz had a terrible performance in redbull against FNC and C9.
Based on recent scrims, I would guess that the DFM is stronger than ZETA.

I get where you're coming from but I'm a big FENNEL fan and have been watching them for over a year so I'm gonna ignore what you just said and keep pretending ππ
(That being said, I do like ZETA and DFM equally)
bees [#69]if they perform the ritual correctly yes
2G will be out of playoffs but will qualify due to EG beating an almost qualified team
The cycle consumates

Sorry for sounding like I'm in denial.I'm a big fan of Dep and xqq and I want they had made a real change the roster because I support ZETA.I wish they had made an effort to get aspas on the team.

I completely understand, man. I do think Dep will keep doing well on duelist, though. I have full faith in SyouTa and CLZ to be able to set him up
