EG:
game 1: FPX: THE WORST team in the tournament from a new region
game 2: FUT: The WORST EMEA team
game 3: EDG (APAC) : a new region, with mediocre players
game 4: DRX (APAC): known for being low skilled, crap aim, 6th chokers.
game 5: PRX (LOST): lost to the ONLY good team this tournament.
game 6: LOUD (a close game vs A DYING TEAM): LOUD with rumours of internal conflict, they played horribly according to their standards, they are a shadow of their past successes. its incredible they even got 2 maps since they are disbanding next year ( most likely)
game 7: PRX became predictable, so it was an easy win. (PRX have an easy style to counter for EG)
Loud:

Game 1: DRX(LOST) IN GROUP STAGE (INVINCIBLE)
GAME 2: Liquid(EMEA #2) top 2 EMEA Team, a team so good that have defeated Fnatic in Europe Grand-Finals.
Game 3: Navi(EMEA #3), simply the team that won a previous master, insane match that could have went to either way with Genius IGLs.
Game 4: FNATIC(EMEA #1), THE DYNASTY TEAM, Best team in the world that pushed Loud to it's limits and forced them to play their best.
Game 5: PRX (Lost), clearly without Gas anymore with all that trows, could have been in upper final If It didn't trew that Bind.
Game 6: EDG(CHINA), the team of the beast KANG KANG, Loud had to face their previous demons and defeat the BEST team of China.
Game 7: FNATIC AGAIN HOLY(EMEA), ultra insane series with Loud having to expose ALL their gameplans to win against the best team in EMEA reagion.
Game 8: Lost to a much more prep timed EG(NA), in a series that they almost Lost with a 3-2 game against an CLEARLY TIRED Loud after playing games without rest.
BRO, Rested Loud > EG, nobody gonna change this.
EG had a fluke run
