KR region is overrated.

#1

gracelaw

With the exception of Vision Strikers, the level of SEA teams are overwhelmingly higher than KR teams.

FS and PRX are at a higher level than Damwon and Nuturn.

Maybe KR region is so overrated

Kr def proved themselves in Berlin and Iceland. It's that sea teams have improved a lot recently

I feel that prx has got quite a lot more to prove to show that they are as good as a top 3-4 team, even potentially 2nd best

It's not clear yet, with the way FS playing they might take on PRX and win a series. X10's capability is also unknown.

Vision Strikers kill other Korean teams. Their level is the same as in NA and EU.

unfair to judge based on an online tournament. i think on lan the story could be different, just my opinion. Full credit to Full Sense though.

tournament isnt even over, but rn I agree SEA teams are better than KR teams its just how it is

NU look really mediocre

DK looked okay

F4Q looked horrendous

all good tho, kr teams will have more motivation to practice now instead of just thinking theyre the best

There is no competitiveness in the KR region. KR fans should only look at the Vision Strikers in international matches.

As a neutral viewer (NA fan LUL) you guys jump to conclusions so fast lol.

A team wins one online bo3 and people are raving about how good or bad they are. Like man, let the tournament finish before you spew your garbage takes at least. Cmon.

valorant is a momentum based game. sometimes the enemy gets a huge lead, you can't recuperate your economy, and you just bleed out. it's how the game works. I've seen so many 16-0s in my time watching cs. shit happens.

i think why sea is more prepared for lcq is because the circumstances of how the actual tournament plays out (teams, ping, etc) heavily favors sea, where they get consistently good practice/scrim partners and can play on the fly on high and low ping, where korea doesn’t have many competitive teams to scrim in their region, having to always turn to sea/jp, however sea has just been playing out of their mind here + never really having to play in high/mid ping outside of sea scrims
the conditions of apac lcq arent enough imo to gather whether sea really is better or not, for now kr is still 3rd with sea being very close behind
is korea a bad region for underperforming against sea/sa and even japan? absolutely not, but korea hasnt been up to par with what we expected
however, is the rest of apac catching up? yes, theyre catching up fast

That's just an excuse, they played with the same ping or better. Lmao ^^

But, KR looks better than JP.

lower ping doesnt necessarily mean they have the advantage because the ping isnt equal. korea might have 40 ping up against 70 in sea, however playing on 70 ping has advantages and disadvantages that 40 doesnt
sea is most likely much more used to having to play 70 ping (sea internet is not always the best) though compared to a korean playing on 40, because korea is always used to single digit or 10/20 ping

Kr is never overrated because they showed the world that they can fight against NA and EU in masters 1 and 2, but meanwhile SEA never performed as good as them. So Kr is not overrated but the teams in lcq just didn't perform as well as NU in iceland and VS in berlin so people are disappointed.

There is no more "weak" region in Valorant these days. We do have super teams like GMB, SEN, NV, VS among others, but even they can lose to any team from any other region, including the worst seeding (NV as an example). This is truly wonderful, although I'm Brazilian and support our region, I always value competitiveness. Seeing this coming from India, the SEA and maybe in the future from China brings me encouragement that maybe one day this game will surpass League of Legends.
