brazil has never made it out of groups
sharks were last in iceland and vikings looked just as bad

latam has one good team which is now a new team since half the team left for bigger Brazilian orgs

sea as a whole isn't better than NA. X10 played like they had nothing to lose (but beat envy) when envy was playing with a sick victor

korea has an overrated team that goes by the name of vision strikers and everyone else

please think before you write these inflammatory and egregious statements

SEA, LATAM and especially KR are not above NA imo. LATAM has one team (KRU) that is better than any NA team and after that not too much depth. SEA is improving a lot but isn't there yet. however, there is literally no justification for putting KR ahead of NA. EMEA is obv #1 and BR is looking really good right now, so I have no reason to say they shouldn't be ranked above NA. just my take.

what makes me excited about Brazil in 2022 is that the region right now has a lot of fresh talent being integrated into the tier 1 scene (cuazain, aspas, jzz, Less), which is different from other regions where fps veterans have proven to be more successful.

100T and Vision Strikers beat Acend, does that then make NA and KR even better than BR then? Form is variable, the Acend that lost to VK was not as good as the Acend that played the rest of the tournament. VK are good and Brazil arent as bad as their placements suggest, but theyre absoluitely not the second best region. EMEA>NA>LATAM>SEA>KR>BR>>>JP

they did, it was just overturned bc of the camera bug. whether you want to count it as a true win or not idrc, it doesnt affect my point.
and yes, it was months, so Acend's form was different. just like Acend's form was different across Champions. form is variable.

LATAM has to be > SEA and BR right? BR has never accomplished anything at all on the international stage while LATAM has a top 4 team, and KRU outperformed all SEA teams at both Berlin and Champions

Region wise? no. Team wise? yes. Kru is definitely better than any SEA team but the region is not. And since KRU got disbanded-ish im pretty sure LATAM doesn’t have any contender teams other than Kru

Australs got signed by another org I think. I agree that LATAM isnt a deep region outside KRU, but frankly neither is SEA outside X10 (and they lost Patiphan so who knows if theyre still gonna be as good). Secret is good but hasn't actually proved anything, they only made it to playoffs bc they had a weak group.

#58

Australs tho good, is nowhere close to KRU. Whilst only ex-10 and TS have proven anything internationally, those 2 teams are also getting beaten by other SEA teams, thus i think SEA has better competition than LATAM has in recent time of course. Would love to see how this plays out in the coming masters and champions event

#65

you raise some good points but i still disagree. TS hasnt really proven anything, they just got through an easy group. regarding X10 being beaten by other teams, their only domestic losses since Stage 3 Challengers Playoffs was in a third party tournament where they were running complete troll comps and clearly not taking it seriously.

ik we're talking about the whole region, but the whole region of SEA is also pretty weak. X10 is the only team that has proven anything internationally, Secret just got through a weak group. and x10 just lost patiphan. Paper Rex and Full Sense bombed out of their events.

I believe that what helped KRU to become a great team was the fact that they trained against all the high-level Brazilian teams, while the Brazilians did not train among themselves, to hide the tactics.

I am the type of guy to trash talk to NA every time but saying they are worse than Brazil or LATAM is braindead, Brazil has improved a lot but remember not even 1 brazilian team made playoffs, they still have a lot to prove, LATAM is basically KRU and ex-Australs and friends, probably the worst region together with Japan also NA had some shitty luck at times imo, they were behind european teams but just like every other region was, NA easily top2 region atm, maybe brazil can take the spot this year or Korea if they fix their shitty 2021 format

Also, this was KRUs peak, they were not a top4 team material in champions imo, no hate to them but dont think they will accomplish much more with this current roster, maybe if they got some upgrades for nagzet and delz1k they could but those 2 guys are not champions contender material

I believe that what helped KRU to become a great team was the fact that they trained against all the high-level Brazilian teams, while the Brazilians did not train among themselves, to hide the tactics.

In addition to this fact about KRU, the Brazilians came very close to the champions playoffs, VKS had several chances to close the game against Gambit and failed due to psychological pressure.

there is no reasonable match history that would make anyone think that right this moment brazil is stronger than NA when there are no international matches and the top NA teams haven't played a single game in months. you make no sense and are probably just baiting tbh

as i said, NA matches have no top tier teams playing currently which is why ur argument makes no sense. watching T2 teams isn't the same as watching the top 6 teams play and btw LOUD almost lost a map to some pug team and to mibr, no comment on that.

I need an explanation for KR. Only one top 3 finish at an international LAN, and it was NUTURN at Reykjavik. Not vision strikers who so many of you praised almighty. I mean, dude. They didnt even qualify for Champions Playoffs. I really would like to know your logic putting them there.

its one tournament lol, NV had food who had covid and clearly played worse because of it, SEN lost close games against KRU and TL which both shouldve been won (dapr not running away in mid against TL and 2 8-4 losses against KRU) and in the rest of the year SEA was nowhere near NA either, NA won master 2 and were runner-ups of masters 3, tell me why SEA is better? because they made 2 top 8 finishes in champions where 1 was against Team Vikings and the other one by a team that lost their best player which was also the best player of the region
