Not even close, despite their masters appearances NA and EU are so far ahead of the other regions the top 10 would be completely comprised of those two regions. Several of the NA/EU teams who DIDNT make masters (aside from sentinels) are arguably better than the teams that did. And the top 10 teams from each of those regions could likely beat the best team from others more often than not.
Off the top of my head and In no particular order, I’d place Sentinels, Fnatic, Liquid, V1, 100T, Envy, C9, Faze, FPX, Acend, Guild, G2, Heretics etc ahead of virtually any team from the other regions. Hell even the Tier 1B teams like XSET, Luminosity, NRG, Gen.G, ANdBOX, BBG, Immortals, NiP, Soniqs, Gambit, etc would likely beat up on most any team from the other regions. It’s really a two horse race. The top 15 teams from NA/EU are all stacked and could have all made masters depending on the day.
Maybe, but just looking at the top 15 teams from NA and EU in their respective rankings and the level of competition isn’t close in other regions. The top 10 would be virtually all NA/EU teams in my opinion.
Sentinels, 100T, Envy, C9, Faze, V1, Fnatic, Liquid, Heretics, FPX, Guild, etc would all beat up on any team from other regions more often than not. I say more often than not because anyone can lose a match here and there... hell sentinels lost to BBG and 100T lost to Nocturn (whoever that is) but if they played 10 times, they’d win 9/10.
S tier: Sentinels
A tier: Heretics, Acend, FPX, Fnatic, Gambit, 100 Thieves, Envy etc.
A- tier: Liquid, C9, Version1, Faze, G2, NiP, Guild, BDS, Nuturn, Vision Strikers (maybe) etc.
B tier: NRG, XSET, GenG, Vikings, KRU, Vitality, Alliance, Immortals etc.
This is a rough idea of how I think the teams would rank up with each other
