Americas Group A is better than Group B

#1

I read people saying that Group B is group of death but how?

C9 - We know their choke tendency, but could be good
Lev - They are a good team but they don't have a good yoru and demon1 is great but isnt good in fast pace in the meta.
MIBR - They don't even have a team yet
G2 - Clear winners
NRG - FNS will cook. He got his worst performance out, cannot get worse than this
Furia - Haven't seen them play, they have the surprise element.

But for Group A, except Sen which are the top and 2G which are the worst the rest are all more or less equal. I would say that group A will stay quite ambiguous throughout the whole year because

2G - Worst Team but will have their main star player after April or June (when they are of age).
100T - Average. (no goated yoru player though)
Sen - Table toppers
Loud - They have good players will only improve. Loud has never been shit and I have faith in them. (DGZIN aura is different)
Kru - I mean come on they can beat anyone
EG - Has fantastic coach and can squeeze out important wins.

The skill gap in Group A is pretty uniform so I think it will be the group of death.

its the group of death because you could argue that 5 of the 6 teams could make playoffs but its only top 4

at that point everything is a group of death as the only team that can't be argued on making playoffs are 2G and Furia.

i don't really think it's fair to be calling 100t average when they had insanely hard kickoff draws and have a relatively proven core while giving both c9 and nrg the benefit of the doubt at the same time

you are wrong. strength of opponent doesnt matter, meta doesnt matter. It doesnt matter that they can watch bangkok and copy g2s comps perfectly. It doesnt matter that they played tejo once and beat a bangkok team 13-4.

The only thing that matters is the place which they finished, and that is how good they will be for the rest of the year no matter what

he's calling op dumb for only considering kickoff placements and not the broader context of kickoff/bangkok in relation to stage 1

Maybe I am trying not to jinx 100T. Did you not see my flair?

ppl who rank teams based on vlr numbers and tourney placements instead of using their eyes are dumb

I agree that 100T are not average but they are rarely able to copy new comps and agents quickly. Especially now that Boostio is not playing entry/first engagement, I hope they are able to adopt quickly.

Don’t overestimate G2 rn, they only have 8-9 scrim days before stage 1 starts. Don’t be surprised if they start stage 1 slow
