ALFHA OR OMEGA

#1

fecinom

Now that this first phase of LOCK-IN is over, contrary to what many were saying before, the ALPHA part of the tournament was much more difficult than the OMEGA. The Sentinels vs FNATIC match was a flop, 100Thieves showed to be 100Bots, Team Liquid didn't even play, and so on.
But this is my opinion, and I wanted to know if you guys come to the same conclusion as me.

Edit: srry, I got the title wrong, it should be alpha ^^

Paper Rex, C9, Talon, Gen.G - All of these teams would easily outshine over half of the OMEGA members, and I don't even need to mention the best of ALPHA.

valid take, champs grand finalists in the same bracket

typical and expected Riot handicapping NA, now Americas

edit: oh my bad, its not just grand finalists, all of top 3 was in Alpha bracket. Pretty based!

Basically their financials were bad and they forgot to actually send the application papers (as a respectable org, i just don't know how u can FK up that hard)

And to add to that their business practices are a little iffy....... Apparently

Vitality, FUT, FURIA and LEV would equally shit on EG/GENG/Talon. The fact is they are just as close, but majority of the site is just having a hard time accepting the fact both EMEA teams absolutely dominated their way to victory without dropping a single map. Other than top 4 + NRG, its a shitshow overall.

Talon looked good and went toe to toe with DRX

EG had close maps with Talon too

Vitality had one close map and then got obliterated (please dont make assumptions based on going 2-1 with GE 💀)

FUT????? Beat RRQ who was expected to place dead last? Only won their map pick against 100T who looks absolutely lost?

Cmon now. NAVI and FNC look fine, but please dont overhype the bottom tier trashcan EMEA teams

Other than Heretics, every EMEA team did well if you being unbiased. KOI played against NRG, Giants lost to NRG but took a map from them. BBL did as well as C9 did against DRX. Like seriously after the 100T games who are considered one of the best of Americas, BBL/FUT aint far off. Overall, it became even when NAVI and FNC decided to bully all the remaining teams anyways lol. You put NRG/LOUD in place of NAVI and FNC in place of DRX, we get the same fucking results. The gap is huge rn with the new rosters.

First and foremost: You forgot Liquid 💀

If you put LOUD and NRG in different brackets (i dont care about Alpha/Omega, different BRACKETS), they both qualify 100% regardless of who they are with

DRX are better than NAVI and FNC and it isn't close, unfortunately you wont get to see that until Masters because LOUD is winning the whole thing.

I dont care about BBL, not even worth me looking it up because I'll never watch another one of their matches again.

FUT stocks inflated from results based analysis and low sample size.

KOI and Giants could be good, but I dont think so.

Heretics is objectively not good and will not get better.

100T games who are considered one of the best of Americas

You literally JUST watched them play the sloppiest 3 series in the org's history since dropping ec0s and babybot and you continue to cope from them being overrated before we even saw the roster play any real teams.

ALL THAT ASIDE

C9 looked like shit, 100T looked like shit and have major work to do. No matter how biased I may be I can't ride for these teams until there is some improvement. I believe 100T will figure it out, and I'm okay with C9 buying a T2 roster and developing it (from any Americas region at this point)

Nah I said 100T can improve

C9 needs to sign a Challengers team, those bots don’t want to win

And I said KOI and Giants could be good, but apparently you can’t fucking read because I didn’t type “bark bark bark”

and also you’re fat

I think the reality is somewhere between in both u wrote.
EMEAs bottom teams aren't good, NAs bottom teams suck even more but pretty close, i think Brazil's teams other than LOUD showed up best to expectations (teams like FURIA, LEV).
"DRX better than NAVI/FNC and not even close, LOUD deleting all" =%100 delulu take, any of those can win, NAVI esp. looks bomb

Lol loud and drx bracket is harder. Anyone that says otherwise is trolling. So many fruads in the other bracket. U got liquid didn't do shit and lost to secret. Rrq and t1 fraud orgs. 100t playing down to their opponents level. That's why Navi and fnatic stomp so hard that late into the bracket. Means so many teams are bad.

Bruh i can show you 100 people on this forum who said Team Secret or LEV swipes and destroys NAVI %100. Just because NAVI was better than expected doesn't mean the bracket was easier. DRX's matches were in close level to NAVIs matches too.
Only clear conclusion you could make would be, FNC/NAVIs matches were easier compared to LOUD bcs they didn't have NRG. Or anyone who had it against 100t it was easier, lol. The rest wasn't significantly different
