Other than DRX, who can compete at this level? Last time I checked out korea was LCQ and they fell shortly behind SEA and Jp. And the ranking points don't help. Would you say KR is the best region in APAC?
0
Other good korean teams?

DRX is far and ahead the best Korean team, they beat every team in their region so i dont think the other teams can get as far
But there are still great teams such as: On S2ayers and DamWon Kia
F4Q will be putting a team together for stage 2 so they will probably be a top 6 team, same with Rio Company
Pugaller [#3]yes. ONS had little time to prepare for this VCT but they for sure have best players in korea. Also DK might put up some competition against international teams with their new roster(incomplete but still)
I watched damwon and was hoping they'd win LCQ last year. Would you say they're close to DRX level?
Sprouts [#9]ONS would be a competent T1 team internationally, probably at the same tier or better than NiP
DK and WGS are still missing a few pieces but could also be strong
The new F4Q roster looks promising and Rio Company are rumored to be building a roster with Hyeoni
How would they do against other APAC regions like sea and JP u think?
Kiss-Shot [#8]I watched damwon and was hoping they'd win LCQ last year. Would you say they're close to DRX level?
not even close

Well the team just dropped like 4 players and made a new roster so cannot say anything
Kiss-Shot [#10]How would they do against other APAC regions like sea and JP u think?
ONS would do great imo but not sure about DK and F4Q because new roster and have to see them
Vortexy [#11]honestly like Damwon Kia's roster, shaping up well, I think they can put up a decent fight but drx still favored
ONS are a brand new team, they had little time to prepare but did show they are very capable, 2-0'ing Drx in bo3 and being decently competitive in their losses
I don't think DWG roaster will work
Kiss-Shot [#10]How would they do against other APAC regions like sea and JP u think?
ONS would without a doubt take the KR+JP slot if it was ever introduced
As for APAC, they are probably around Bleed's level (it's really hard to rate other KR teams though when all we have to scale them off of internationally is DRX)
The rest of the teams I'm not really sure about (since most of their rosters are brand new), but teams like DK and WGS tend to have really high peaks but also super low drops
SeulgiVLR [#22]theres no dedicated igl, harry > hate
I feel sad for Harry.... He performed soo good and still unsigned.
I hope Maru picks him
KoreanOverlord [#20]they fell shortly behind SEA and Jp
did you watch the same LCQ?
Wdym they did GF was between a SEA and JP team
S3V3N [#26]Wdym they did GF was between a SEA and JP team
so all the other SEA and JP teams dont count????? INCLUDING PRX?????

the finalists were sea and jp so what i said was technically right

I actually think ONS is more on Xerxia/PRX level, while damwon is on bleed level
ONS beat DRX in a bo3, theyre no joke
Enamul_Huq1990 [#31]Ons,Dk & an unsigned team called Holly Molly are really good
dont forget WGS
hann is a demon
KoreanOverlord [#30]I actually think ONS is more on Xerxia/PRX level, while damwon is on bleed level

Not to forget that ONS is the only team other team in the world than Nuturn that beat DRX 2-0.
OzyMeister [#35]nah its a single team region and drx is wayy better than the rest but delusional fans will keep saying ONS and those who coping harder will also mention DK WGS and some might even say NU kekw
oh boy here they come
Enamul_Huq1990 [#34]Btw how good is Hate & Jimbonge
Hate is decent, used to be elite, fell off in japan kind of, and his voice reminds me of rb
both are just average but people say jinboonge has potential

Cant ignore this too.
I was bummed that Korea was getting one slot bc I was telling my whole discord about how I thought ONS was the team to watch and how they were gonna shock the world. Still think this is possible and it'd be interesting to see how they would fair against the competition. I think this LAN is showing NA, EMEA, and BR are slightly overrated, any region really has a shot.
KoreanOverlord [#40]Cant ignore this too.

he does, but was not impressive on tnl

fr narrative used to be that DRX are overhyped now that they've proven they're not the narrative is that KR is one team region LMAO

Drx is up 3 maps between 3 meetings that isn’t saying a lot
KoreanOverlord [#29]yeah technically ignoring every context
We are not saying Korea is bad by any means we just mean that Korea did not make GF and that was what OP was referring to by “fell shortly behind”
archetype [#45]fr narrative used to be that DRX are overhyped now that they've proven they're not the narrative is that KR is one team region LMAO
i would say its a 3 or 4 team region, but the other 2 teams would be on the level of japan in late 2021.
OzyMeister [#51]lol you're dumb
Hahaha.
Sorry I had to laugh when I see an idiot call someone else dumb.
KoreanOverlord [#52]Hahaha.

Wtf thats copium
ONS would beat Zeta RIGHT now and the scrims prove it
KoreanOverlord [#54]Wtf thats copium
ONS would beat Zeta RIGHT now and the scrims prove it
I think he is talking about DK and WGS
Bo0mShell [#55]I think he is talking about DK and WGS
Stage 1 DK and WGS would definitely beat 2021 CR and even Northeption imo
KoreanOverlord [#54]Wtf thats copium

yeah ONS would beat most of the top 8 APAC teams right now. Im talking about DK and WGS who seem a little underwhelming rn
archetype [#56]Stage 1 DK and WGS would definitely beat 2021 CR and even Northeption imo
i meant really late 2021 like champions. when JP seemed to be improving.
OzyMeister [#53]hahahaha
sorry i had to laugh when i see a clown
true! that's why I'm laughing reading the post above mine
KoreanOverlord [#29]yeah technically ignoring every context
idk but to me only DRX are the only real contenders and that's why I'm asking
