NA>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Emea

I feel that at this pace we should consider giving NA teams more opportunities to showcase the potential that Tier 2 teams have at an international level, NA Ascension league is more entertaining to watch compared to bad Emea or Apac T2 tourneys where all the competition is already franchised, while NA has T2 teams that could easily keep up or even dominate T1 Apac/Emea teams 😴 Certain Emea franchised teams don’t deserve to be playing with C9, EG, or NRG 🥱

What does NA and Emea stands for ?

Hey wait I have seen this one before...

NA >>>> EMEA >>>>> DRX >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> REST OF PACIFIC

5 NA teams is honestly enough, especially compared to CS where there’s Liquid and occasionally Complexity.

Top 4 EMEA teams in other side of bracket.

Put them on this side and it'd be super close matches.

Lets just wait until we see the real EMEA play before we say anything.

But yes, they'd function the same with 6 slots as they would with 10.

T2 Americas EMEA and Pacific tourney would be so funny though

.

Americas top 5 <= EMEA top 3
Americas bottom 5 > EMEA bottom 7. Also Russian players solo

Oofh, honestly at this point, NA >>> EMEA shouldn't be a hottake.

The best EMEA teams are carried by CIS players really. How it got like this so quickly after 2021? I do not know.

Fnatic are perrenial chokers, and I do not think that SEN game is free for them at all, though I'd like to see them get a win and play to level we know that squad is capable of.

NAVI and Liquid both solid, but will likely end up knocking each other out.

We still didn't see NaVi TL FNC

KOI TH BBL were really bad tho

Giants-NRG is important

NA may be better overall, but the top of EMEA are extremely good. The reason why EMEA and pacific look so bad is because it is only now that we are seeing the divide between the best of the best in EMEA compared to those just below them. I won't say that EMEA is a one team region, but theres definitely only like 25 players in EMEA that are good enough to compete on the world stage and they have been divided into 10 different teams. That might explain why so many of the EMEA teams look so bad, whereas in americas, while there might also only be like 35 top players in the world at most, only 25 of them (more like 23) actually get to play in franchising, so the talent is less spread out. Also, brazil and latam have some good teams because all the best players have been put into 2 or 3 teams. So it makes more sense that NA (and Americas league) will be better and NA ascension will also be better too. Finally, the reason why pacific league is so bad (or mediocre) is because japan was a one team region, korea was a one team region, and SEA was only really dominated by PRX and XIA. Therefore, Americas will be the strongest and most entertaining league for a while.
