Why is EMEA so bad

#1

Guuh3

I saw a Post Baiter about this, and I thought. EMEA, after the first year of Valorant, was always inferior to Americas. Like, I'm not an EMEA hater, that's just a fact.

In 2022 EMEA had FPX, while the Americas had LOUD and OPTIC
In 2023 EMEA had FNC, while Americas had LOUD, EG and NRG
In 2024 EMEA had TH, while the Americas had LEV, G2 and SEN

Why does this happen?

it kinda says sum that in 2022 only PRX/americas was competitive

FPX scraped by a vibes team like PRX who were just there to have fun </3

EMEA is a region, Americas is a region, is it that hard to comprehend?

or you want to compare EMEA which has double the playerbase and like 5x the teams of just the US/Canada to each other lmfao

if u wanna talk about the games popularity and players compared to population size americas is by far the biggest region btw,literally no other esport has "americas" its always been eu vs na why the fuck are people suddenly trying to claim thats a insane comparison lol,it was literally a thing all the way until franchising,if u were saying "americas is better than emea" pre franchising people would have said ur coping

apparently its the new standard cause they can officially say americas is a "region" even tho they cant even play in the same servers or scrim the same teams and have almost the same playerbase as emea with half less people,obviously the talent pool will be deeper

Nah you are stupid because It doesn't matter how much countrys if you compare the size of eu to the US and Canada only I will be the same that mean just a state in the USA is big as country in eu using the argument of you have so many countries the dumbest thing I hear coming from NA LOL

Besides America, take Brazil too, wich each state is bigger than a European country, and Brazil has the second biggest playerbase.

Americas is TOO big, thats why the team pool diff.

emea has all the gazillion countries and spans to three continents but only has about 600k more players with 3.1m compared to americas 2.5m with double the population btw,i will repeat again this isnt a thing in any other sport or esport in the world,it isnt impressive that americas has a deeper talent pool when the game is clearly even way more popular there than emea

and like i said americas has almost the same playerbase as emea,personally i wouldnt feel much pride if i was claiming "americas" when the only reason ur considered 1 "region" is because riot has a studio in la and doesnt wanna spend money on 2 seperate leagues,when u have 2 separate regions who are heavily invested in the game and have their own communities and talent pools put in to 1 league ofcourse its gonna be more competitive dumbass

nobody said cis is its own region, jsut said its not EU, eu usually refers to countries in or around the european union because thats most of western europe lol

its as simple as this, how many ascension qualifiers are there in EMEA, you have like 10 teams in portugal, france, germany , UK, italy, russia, turkey, arabia, North africa, and others etc etc

NA is just 10 from US/canada, and then u have 10 in brazil, 10 in latam

so 30 compared to like 80 tier 2? do you not see the discrepancy in tier 2 playerbase?

Hot take: there are an equal amount of good teams from both regions we just have high standards on what is considered good on vlr
