EMEA or Pacific look like the best region right now?
(It's probably Pacific, but I'm slightly EMEA biased)
Emea clears rn tbh
Last season every team was shit, even heretics
The only upside to emea last season is that it was competitive . Somehow heretics managed to be the best team without winning a single regional
In 2023 emea was a one team region, it was really bad apart from Fnatic and sometimes Navi
But now, emea is the best easily. I think it has something to do with all the new polish representation
If you ignore apeks the 11th best emea team is miles above any other 11th best team, which is likely koi or Navi imo, who would absolutely dogwalk a team like 2g, furia, lev, loud, eg, zeta, boom, tyloo, all gamers, or tec
i get what you mean, but we can watch 2G play and watch Apeks play, theres not really a competition here, in terms of quality of the strategy/utility/team play EMEA is clear rn
only 2G and Sentinels look like structured teams compared to EMEA, I would say 100T at times do as well but there are also moments 100 thieves are garbage
i´d say kru furia and 2g got severely nerfed because of visa issues and spikezin not being able to play until 18 (which is already a stablished rule so they cant do much about it, but having to find a sub for the ascension mvp is a big issue regardless), for the rest like eg and nrg idk what happened it seems like they felt to the pressure because verno doesnt look as good and same for supa or derrek, they didnt look bad but not that good and thats pretty much making everything look worse, aspas wasnt aspas also against 100t and cortezia didnt seem to aim so rn teams look severely worse overall ngl, in some time they can solve their problems and i still think this league has way more than what they have offered so far anyways so its just a matter of time that they close the gap we´ve seen
Have to say this year might be an EMEA year. So many teams looking good over there. I think the solid top 3 are KC, Vitality and BBL (FUT could easily overtake BBL after we see them play. And of course Heretics should be top 2.)
Americas only has one team that's really good and that's G2 ofc.
Pacific is still a bit of an unknown but T1 looks decent along with DRX, we're still yet to see GenG.
America have G2, SEN, and 100T. 3 Solid team to win international event
EMEA have the most improvement, last year is the worst region because outside TH, EMEA is nothing. But now, i can see more team who can compete in Master and Champion
Pacific have the smallest difference between the top team and the bottom team, but i haven't see any promising team to repeating the success of Gen.G
China is only 4 good teams and 8 mediocre teams
