thatpower [#2]you could say the same for our region as well
and emea
True, but less too heavy imo, especially as the season goes in
Kru and mibr just had an incredibly close game that either could have won, and loud vs sentinels was also close
Stormyv8 [#5]do you even watch the lower teams lmao it was 2-1 galore.
I can accept we're weaker overall, but top heavy ?? I don't think so
How can you be weaker overall but not top heavy? That would mean the top teams of pacific are worse, which is clearly not true from geng’s past performances

Top heavy is like G2 breezing over all teams in AMER. or VIT/TH in EMEA
All the top 3 were struggling against the lower teams this kickoff.
T1 vs BOOM was close
DRX vs NS was close
GENG vs RRQ was close
so no, I don't think it was top-heavy, at least this year.
*Additionally, the matches between lower teams were also super close, like RRQ vs NS, BOOM vs NS, GE vs DFM, TS vs GE etc.

I always thought top heavy was more so how bad the 4th place team could be, essentially how hard it is for a team to make an intl tourney from the region
The fact that talon made 4th in kickoff and made champs last year leads me to believe that other than the top 2/3 teams in apac, all the rest are quite easy to beat
MrBulbe [#8]Americas is literally one team region
Sentinels in form could make a decent run, as could mibr. But also, Kru/Loud could also easily beat any of these teams except g2 and could make an international as well.

It might be the case last year, but this kickoff I've seen some improvements from the lower teams (and maybe regression from the top teams) so overall skill level is kind of closer.
