NA x SA Beat those EMEA shitters
No hard feelings for NRG vs LOUD but im rooting for my former optic boys, but beyond that im rooting for Furia in Omega bracket
yeah, americas is strongest franchising region. its because NA only has 25 slots, BR has only 15 slots and latam has 10 slots for all their best players. in NA, some of them have missed out on franchising (The Guard and some other players), showing how competitive it is in NA. BR have 2 solid teams and latam have a superteam imo in leviatan (especially with onur as coach). Compare that to EMEA, where EU has 40 slots for their best players, when in reality EU only really has about 30 or 25 outstanding players that are world class, which is clearly shown in navi, TL and fnc, who have some of the best of EMEA in each role. Finally, APAC hasn't grown enough since most of the old regions (JP, KR, SEA) were not competitive or one team regions. So finding 50 of the best players means that, just like in EMEA, some players that might not be considered world class can make it onto teams (exhibit A: DFM). that is why americas is and will be the strongest overall region for some time.
nah, KOI needs to drop wolfen and starxo and import 2 good NA players, and KC needs to drop xms (you could make a case for newzera too) and heretics needs a full roster change. giants is ok as they are i would say, a couple of upgrades may improve the team but they definitely arent as bad as KC and TH imo.
