BDS are a bunch of chokers and then Heretics have just fell off since their players got poached

Honestly, I feel like it's always been like this in NA. Anyone being able to beat anyone. Creates the most unexpected results.

No, more like NA teams have a ton of depth, which makes the scene competitive. I honestly wouldn't even consider any of yesterday's games as upsets

I mean, which match was really an upset today?

GenG vs TSM, although a coin toss in the eyes of many, still was by no means a underdog win (I think it was a bit expected if I factor in bias).

T1 vs V1? T1 have been looking super strong lately with Autimatic finally getting up to speed and Brax's incredible aim.

Rise vs Faze? I never really expected much out of Faze. Other than them surprising me at Masters 1, I didn't expect them to go that far. Corey was the only player I thought was really good.

LG vs KCP? That hasn't ended yet so can't really judge.

Definitely. TSM was 8-4 head to head against geng before the match. V1 fell off since Iceland and faze have been struggling since masters 1. None of these games were that surprising

Faze is the only "upset" and even that is iffy cause Faze is known for these chokes

Nah I don't think so RISE as a whole is very strong

faze is overrated at this point, they haven't done anything impressive since 2nd at masters 1. Rise has been super good recently and only lost to top teams like geng and xset

to be fair all of these teams are about the same skill level. no top 5 team in this qualification.

It feels like the favored team in each matchup is really only 60% favored to win.
