Threaded Linear

FPX vs FOKUS hasn't been played yet but the rankings doesn't differ much based on the results.

Group A:

  1. Fnatic (Undisputed best team in the region, dominated every series so far)

  2. FPX (Lost to Fnatic but very strong since then)

  3. Acend (Lost to Fnatic and still building chemistry but on the rise)

Group B:

  1. Guild (Undefeated right now)

  2. M3C (Destroyed against Guild but since then have been getting consistent wins)

  3. Liquid (Lost to Guild but still in a transition period with star fraggers across the board)

i feel like since m3c are bootcamping they could honestly get a map or even win against guild

Maybe, but they are not and there is no reason to speculate about that.

zeek and vakk are like not in the match at all. They don't win duels. No impact with util. Zeek was crazy on kayo in champions, but now

i think theres a world where fpx can beat fnatic in playoffs but it could really go either way. but if derke and alfajer do their thing it almost wont even matter, those guys are nuts.

FPX just saved their Fracture comp vs fnatic for some reason in first game, pretty sure if they played it like vs fokus and g2, then game vs fnc ended like all other games in that group (2-0)
I dont think its gonna be close next time, because i don't really like fnc's map pool. I think their best map is icebox rn and fpx because of how big and strong their map pool can just ban it and win on every other map with dominant score (like on Ascent).

Ill give you my quick tierlist from what i seen in these days, I think this split EMEA looked really competitive.

S tier - Can win Challengers 2
Fnatic(Definetely the best looking team so far, their mechanical players are insanely good and they are supported by 3 very smart system players that are also really reliable in the frag department, also they look very good tactically, especially when Enzo can play Fade, they seem to understand that asgent very well)
Guild(The best looking team tactics wise, Koldamenta is reading the meta and the midrounds really well and I love how he manages to utilize his players fully, just look at how he utilizes trexx fragging talents paired with leo gamesense on attacker side to always put them in good situations, also they play the best retakes in EMEA)
FunPlus Phoenix(Great team all around with lots of star potential in every single player, IGL'd by one of the best in the world, they have very good prep and counterstratting along with insane versatility, only way to beat them is to study them a lot and frag really hard like fnatic did, I think that if they meet in playoffs its gonna be an amazing game again)

A Tier - Strong playoffs team
G2(Solid team with great fraggers, they seem to be transitioning roles but if they manage to utilize nukkye and hoody well, its a really scary team, especially fragging-wise)
Liquid(Lots of star power but losing sliggy definetely made them more shakly in the meta read and they rely a lot on mechanics to win rounds, I hope they can get it togheter or else they are going to fold in the playoffs)
M3C(The first games looked very shaky but they seem to be finding their form back, if they can manage to keep a strong mental they can definetely climb to S tier)
Acend(A new team with insane fragging power, I think they could miss out on playoffs because some players are having an hard time adapting to the new system, but this could be an incredibly scary team if they find their footing, Monsteer has been the highlight for me)

B Tier - Good but not enough
FOKUS(A good team with super exciting players that got really unlucky and ended up in the tougher group, JuGi, Vong and YaBoyLewis are definetely players to keep an eye on for the future and i dont see them losing in promotion tournament)
OGLU(A very tactically sound team that lacks a superstar fragger, I feel like the support core of Destrian-Hype-Boo is really good and smart but they need to find better fraggers for next split, MOLSI is explosive but very inconsistent and emotional and Feqew is sadly not good enough for tier 1 play, I would love to see L0udly and/or MiniBoo from Arctic in this team!)
NAVI(Good team but except for cloud there are no standout players, definetely feels like the average challengers team, good players but nothing that makes you jump out of your seat, losing jady really hurt them)
BBL(Not a bad team individually but they are missign a lot of team elements, pAura style of IGL seemed to have worked only for SMB and in BBL it looks like they dont really have a plan and rely a lot on mechanics from AslanM4shadow and QutionerX especialy on T side, talented players that need a better guide)
BIG(While musashi was a great pickup and twisten is a great talent, I feel like the lack of strong leadership that gob b had made the supportive elements of the team drop a lot in performance, especially Aslan, he looks completely lost this split and obnoks doesnt really fit his new roles, Luckerr is also p uninspiring as an igl, i hope the germans can turn it around but it looks dire)

FNC group stage team
Even if we will imagine that they make some grand/lower finals i will never bet on FNC in BO5 because of their map pool
