It looks like it, but they have a lot to prove before saying that. SEN has been dominating almost for a year

Im more focusing on the present and right now guild is one of the best EU teams. Otherwise Liquid would be much higher because they 13-0ed OXG and qualified for Iceland

If you focus on the present, no European team and Turkish team played a match, you can't tell the difference

Man its not that hard. I’m taking success in the past into consideration as well as recent results. And giants always were a tier 2 team two wins against tier 1.5 don’t change that. Or should I put finest tier 1 because they won against G2?
Besides I rate them as top tier 2 close to tier 1.5
