So many people complained about this being the decider and LOUD being in play-ins, but now we see that LATAM did have 2 masters quality teams vs Brazil's 1 AND both made it further.
no.. LEV/KRU are LOUD+ level. all other LATAM and BR teams are way below. BR has only 1 team sadly, and LATAM has 2. that's what OP is saying (and what the world is seeing)
yeah, I know Fusion have what it takes, but NIP has more intercontinental experience (FUS has none). so i think they MIGHT struggle at champs, but anything can happen but NIP might take it.
you know latam and brazil have a really bad power balance, excited to see them improve as we see america become one region. I want to see latam imports to NA teams, since we've already seen cracked players go insane.
what's crazy is that we have more NA origin players on LATAM than we have LATAM on NA. currently Torrify and Dcop came from NA to fusion (dcop TSM Acad, Torrify i dont remember but hes cracked).
when thing start full international I'm sure NA will try to buy some LATAM/BR
tbf Loud Kru and Lev are probably on the same level and if they play each other every game can go either way, a good exemple of this is that LEV lost to KRU 2 times before winning against then in the finals
And at the time they would have won the LATAM/BR decider. I'm just saying the use of this tournament to decide the extra seed isn't a bad method because the regions are on par most of the time.
