Surely there’s a conversation to be had that they’re the strongest region currently?
babysasuke [#2]Here's the conversation summed up:
"Wow, is China the strongest region rn?"
"No, Americas exists"
"ah shit, you right"
xi lai gaming shitstomps entire americas

More bottom tier Americas teams than china.
Toph_ [#9]More bottom tier Americas teams than china.
Any Americas team would place top 3 in any other region
Ryandr [#4]Nope still needs to catch up. Especially bottom teams are bit too bad. But the region is improving really fast.
I don’t think 2G is better than all gamers or Tyloo. Tec at least look competent. Kru looks clueless Furia looks relatively clueless. And the rest of china genuinely just looks good maybe less so on jdg.
babysasuke [#10]Any Americas team would place top 3 in any other region
Drg clears the bottom 6 America's teams
babysasuke [#10]Any Americas team would place top 3 in any other region
G2 sure, Sen sure, 100T sure the rest no.
Ullyr [#18]uh vlr and reddit is not ready to have this conversations. It will end with them calling EDG fluke
Come-on overhyping edg or china isn't good. It will just create more hate on the region and edg. Same as what happened to prx or primmie.

Yistyy [#20]any china team is definitely better than emea's best, but if any of them played an americas team they would get slaughtered.
That makes america's the worst region because they got farmed by EMEA last year
Cacachocolat [#22]That makes america's the worst region because they got farmed by EMEA last year
doesn't mean shit unless you have a trophy to show for it. emea's last trophy was masters tokyo 2023.

true and thanks to that shit flair
If you're defining best region by which region has the best team then it's hard to argue against the current world champions
However, if you define it by which region has the highest chance of winning the next masters, then no matter how each individual kickoff match goes, and taking all possible permutations of the two teams going to Bangkok into account, then the best region is the region with the highest number of contender-level teams--which I doubt anyone would give to China.
Schneefeuer11 [#26]No.
Have you seen any team except TE, EDG and XLG play?
Yes. BLG look solid, DRG look solid, FPX looks solid. Nova has much room for improvement but still look good. And even teams below them aren’t “bad” apart from all gamers and tyloo
Ryandr [#19]Come-on overhyping edg or china isn't good. It will just create more hate on the region and edg. Same as what happened to prx or primmie.
not even overhyping them but when edg been getting hate for like 2 to 3 years and then they won champs and ppl still saying fluke is crazy to me
Toph_ [#30]Yes. BLG look solid, DRG look solid, FPX looks solid. Nova has much room for improvement but still look good. And even teams below them aren’t “bad” apart from all gamers and tyloo
FPX is everything but Solid

Yes I think china has an argument for having the most contenders. BLG EDG DRG Trace FPX and XLG are all great teams. And I think nova is getting up there as well.
Schneefeuer11 [#33]FPX is everything but Solid
Elaborate. What are the flaws in FPX that a team like PRX T1 KC FUT and any americas teams that aren’t g2 and sen don’t also have.
Toph_ [#34]Yes I think china has an argument for having the most contenders. BLG EDG DRG Trace FPX and XLG are all great teams. And I think nova is getting up there as well.
You think Nova, BLG, and Drg are on the same level as Heretics, G2, Vitality, KC, NRG, and SEN?
Nachtel [#39]You think Nova, BLG, and Drg are on the same level as Heretics, G2, Vitality, KC, NRG, and SEN?
NRG lost to C9… the only reason you have them that high is because of the off season where they had a extremely close game with BLG even then… difference is NRG somehow look worse and BLG look better. XLG nearly beat BLG and also nearly 2-0’d EDG I would confidently put KC over BLG or XLG. DRG have also been playing very well. Thus far I’d only put G2 Sen and Vitality confidently above those teams.
