i was talking to a friend and he said how underestimating china was a blessing in disguise. because americas and emea teams now actually prep and respect them, their unpredictability will diminish and there won't be another trace or billibilli in playoffs for a while. thoughts?

no

disagree, teams didnt disrespect those teams. they were just legitimately worse.

LEV and VIT messed up their map veto (ban ascent TE's best map) TE won their maps (Intentionally keeping a good map for decider), making them win 2-1 and 2-1. EDG and DRX banned ascent making their map pool rather weak.
TMV criticized team for not banning opp's good or best map. They did not made comp around Tejo too (don't know why)

Nah. Its valorant. Cn barely played tejo & finished 2 weeks early. They are just behind meta in master 1. And blg & trace both gonna struggle in cn as well.
