Half the Champions teams are out

Yup. That's 8/16 of the Champions attendees not at Reykjavik. What a world.

Acend
Gambit
Team Liquid
Team Secret
Team Vikings
Sentinels
Full Sense
FURIA

And there could still be even more eliminations!

Shows you how much fhe scene has improved, the only one i felt missed qualification out of bad lucl was gambit, the other ones just got diffed by teams in their region

It's kinda disingenuous considering there are only 12 teams at Masters compared to Champions. For example, Team Liquid would've qualified if this was Champions as EMEA would have 4 spots. But a lot of it is true, like Acend, Gambit, Secret, Sentinels etc just got beat by better teams.

if we think of it in terms of champions slots, every other team besides Liquid is still out, which is still an insane statistic!

fun thing is some of these teams didnt even make it to the playoffs/qualifiers

cloud9 might not make it either

C9, DRX (previously VS), XERXIA (previously X10), KRU, Keyd are all a single loss away from missing Iceland too!

Edit: CR as well, I nearly forgot!

If around 3/4 teams come again. There will be threads like, "see there is no competition in valo", "dead scene".
So, this is all good we get to see new competition, new titles emerging, and a lot more.

x10 crit too technically

If you look at #8, you'll see I am considering XERXIA in this case and not the org X10 because then I could technically say things like "Vision Strikers is out too" because they are DRX now.

I think technically they are called DRX Vision Strikers
