Fnatic are SERIOUS contenders for champ finals. Their team and individual play is unlike anything we have seen so far. It also shows that Fnatic has been doing their research about teams and knows how to counter them whereas other teams can't counter fnatic very easily.
Brazil teams came to play, To be honest, the VKS vs Acend match had MOST of us surprised but it shows that other regions are improving and it makes this tournament much more interesting.
NA teams stayed the same for the most part. I haven't seen any real improvement in the NA scene so i'm quite worried how that will leave the region comptetively.
VS got read like a book. VS simply got outplayed and outclassed by fnatic. It was clear they didn't have any more strats in their books and once figured out cannot adjust. They are still a strong team however this made me realize they may not be top 3 contenders.
What are your guys takeaways?
