LOUD over TL and KRU over EDG(Fluke run) and Zeta(can not abuse chamber against good teams)

bro said KRU over EDG and said fluke run like KRU could easily have had the flukiest run ever

edit: Not saying KRU had a fluke run just bad logic

I agree but EDG still needs to prove they can be consistent contenders on the international stage. That’s the reasoning behind why I ranked them below DRX.

I think your power ranking is great. I would only disagree with ZETA in 15 and I’d argue you should place them higher.

Yeah, no one would use chamber on other Teams tbh.. The fact that they have such comps and using their forte makes ZETA really high imo

EDG over DRX and KRU over ZETA

reasonable. when I was deciding between KRÜ and ZETA, I just thought of the head-to-head and thought whose playstyle would be more effective. Honestly, KRÜ has more momentum than ZETA does going in to Champions so this take is very reasonable.

they been through enough chinese lans but I get international is different. They still have a higher chance to beat zeta/nrg than people expect

I’m just thinking they might be like EDG last year. But, they could always come out swinging. You just never know what you’re going to get when everyone is prepping for Champions, especially teams who haven’t been to a VCT LAN before.

but tbh I’m not disagreeing with you, I’m just saying we will see top tier EDG or choking EDG. No in-between.

EG definitely deserves to be top 3 in terms of power rankings but I think they’re gonna get grouped or go out in 7-8th because of the 2nd place curse (No team has managed to avoid it so far).

FNATIC - didn’t even qualify for challengers stage 3
Envy - Got grouped in Champions
Gambit - Failed to qualify for Reykjavik
LOUD - 11-12th in Copenhagen
PRX - Got grouped in Champions
Optic - Didn’t make franchising and disbanded
LOUD - 7-8th at Tokyo

C9 would honestly place above Giants but below KRÜ imo (#11/17)

EDG that high? Is there a reason or just speculation.

Partly speculation but they did look like they could have gone further in Tokyo but choked an 11-4 lead against prx in map 1 which lead to them losing, also in the cn qualifier tourney they looked really good
