when we should be putting some respect on X10. They played so well and almost beat vikings who are being hailed as the favorites for the tourney.
respect for SEA!
Vikings were never really true favorites but I agree. In my mind there were 4 favorites heading into this, those 4 being Sen, FNC, TL and VKS but none were truly favorites. Now Sen are the favorites heading into day 3 with VKS, FNC and V1 all being behind them. But either way, X10 should get some respect and they should beat CR but they definitely won't beat Fnatic. They might get within a few rounds or even take a map but they won't win. I also want to point out that the Asian teams have been more impressive than the South American teams. Nuturn beat Sharks, CR kept it very close against V1 and X10 put up a really good fight against one of the favorites in VKS. I'm not saying that Asian teams are better than SA teams but they've been much more impressive. Like I thought KRU was going to keep it close with FNC and maybe even take a map and that VKS would roll X10 but KRU got rolled and X10 put up 1 hell of a fight. Vision Strikers will probably be the best team in Asia once again with their roster changes and if X10 got within a few rounds of beating FNC, imagine what VS could do once they make an international tourney
