Personally i never seen anyone in APAC flaming other region, why the fk these kids trash talking on the internet. As a PRX fan, we just feel sad but still we wish TL gl during group stage, and kids crying on the internet saying shits
people called prx’s style of gameplay “cringe” because it was fast paced and different, therefore making EMEA and NA fans upset because their comps felt cheesy and their wins didn’t feel earned. it’s a dumb take because the best teams should be able to win against these “cringe comps”, but them losing to prx in copenhagen meant the fans had to cope with a false narrative.
now that prx lost, all NA and EMEA’s hate is being channeled into hate threads even though prx and their fans are pretty tame in comparison. just toxic people finding a reason to be toxic.
tl;dr: their play style made people view their success as unearned, and prx getting grouped at champs makes their hate feel “justified”
I switched before masters copenhagen quals. I think around the time of masters reykjavik. but I had FPX flair before I had Gen.G flair and I think Guild was my first flair, then C9, then FPX, then Gen.G, then now FPX again.
Somewhat bandwagon bc they finally got a spot in masters in the first time in forever, but sadly the visa issues.
ayo it's not just PRX, it's pretty much every team after they bomb out after a huge success in the last event. Everyone talks shit, most of which is very unwarranted, but honestly all regions talk shit, even APAC. I think all the hate between regions aren't that warranted, but I feel like you have to acknowledge your region isn't exempt from this either. NA and EMEA just simply have more people, which mean more toxic people from those regions on this website, so it seems that NA and EMEA are the most toxic regions, when in reality, they are most likely just as toxic as most other regions, they just have a bigger voice.
That said, downplaying a regions success is just a bad idea in any world, I think it should just be said for everyone, because every region is a victim of this and perpetuates this toxicity.
