EMEA lcq power rankings

S tier: Guild: have shown that they are a dominant force in the EMEA scene
A tier: Acend, g2, m3c: these teams have had their moments of brilliance throughout the year and if they manage to find a consistent form they can make champions
B tier: BBL, NAVi, OGLU: these guys are most probably not winning lcq lets be honest but could cause some upsets.

unkown: Liquid: currently they are looking for a 5th igl as Dreamas is only signed till stage 2 and considering the results liquid had with him. he is probably not staying long. There is a possibility that l1nk might return to the roster but that is looking slim. if liquid sign an igl who is capable i believe they have what it takes to win lcq.

g2 seriously tier A Navi better than g2

i would put acend and m3c at unkown because they are searching for 5th aswell

S tier: Guild - because well they made it to Masters and did pretty well there

A tier: Acend, M3C, TL - Acend already looked pretty good during Stage 2 and cNed only found his Chamber form during last games they will be looking for 5th, but I think they should still be considered A tier. M3C also looking to upgrade their roster with Jady so I have pretty high hopes for this team. And TL's 5th is unknown as well, but they have a lot of firepower and even after adding Dreamas they did relatively well during Stage 2, and I don't know does Sliggy have inside info but he said TL is his favorite to make it in LCQ.

B tier: G2, BBL, NAVi, OGLU - Most likely not going to win. I also added G2 here, because in my opinion Guild, ACE, M3C and TL all have higher chances. But who knows maybe if their individual form is good then they have a chance, but I doubt it. I also think especially Navi could have decent run. They have good roster and potential.

S TIER:
-M3C
-Guild
A TIER
-Acend
-NAVI
-G2
-Team Liquid
B TIER:
-BBL
-OG LDN

I think M3C is the favorite, because they will have the honeymoon effect with their new player like Nivera in Team Liquid last year, and I think Guild will be very studied after this masters, I dont see them as favorite. Same happened with G2 in 2021. Acend and Navi looked strong in the last stage 2 matches I have hope on them. G2 has to change a lot of things if they wanna make it but with this coach i don't believe, and Team Liquid is in shambles but they have Nivera and Scream

Acend + deepmans = S tier

Everyone will study Guild gameplay during M2, that's the downside for them, their opponents will be aware of all moves

M3C with Jady could just roll over qualifiers, biggest firepower in the event by far, nobody's gonna know what to expect from them, of course I'm biased

Acend, Navi strong teams, have shown multiple times that they can fight against the top competitors, Navi was kinda robbed of playoffs both splits, DeepMans will probably fit well in his new environment

Others don't stand a chance IMO, Liquid is stagnating without proper IGL and proper coach, G2, OGLU, BBL are straight up bad

BBL S tier in my heart

If gambit can go back to their M3 or Champs form then they are 100% S tier
