If LOUD beats Fnatic, then EMEA loses, people on VLR will lose a reason to be xenophobic toward Brazilians, and Americas gets another slot at Tokyo.
If Fnatic beats LOUD, then people won't have real evidence to call the Americas teams who lost to Fnatic "dogshit" (Sentinels, Furia, 100T), since there's nothing bad about losing to 1st place. It's just an unlucky bracket at the end of the day.
It's a good time to be an Americas fan, isn't it? Hopefully EMEA and Pacific can catch up to our combined strength someday 🥱🥱🥱
