The teams have evolved so much there is no 'ez group' for any teams everyone has equal chance to qual unlike previous events
Yes however this is a naive approach to rating teams, I do it more based on gameplay. I watched all of nth and fpx. Also fpx have visa issues I would consider them top tier without those issues. Xerxia and DRX are both very good however I believe them to be worse than KRU, Optc, Guild, and even Loud. I’ve seen nothing yet to suggest otherwise!
I think guild is a better team in terms of aim and strategy but I think they might not thrive in a live environment, but I give them benefit of the doubt. I think DRX is at least close to KRU and with KRU receiving a wake up call from losing to leviatan I think they will win if they play. Would be in interesting match but I give it to KRU, just my opinion. Note: I’m not saying group b teams are bad, just that group a teams would beat all of them.
