Are y'all fucking bozos? FNC were completely dominant in groups and takes all 5 matches convincingly. They beat M3C undeniably a top 3 team in EMEA (yes they lost against G2 but did y'all forgot that they 13-0d them?), If that doesn't show they are one of if not the best idk what other proof you need.
People need to understand first of all that honestly for top teams like FNC, SEEDING DOESNT MATTER, playing seriously in seeding matches just gives more content for your opponents to analyze and ultimately counter strat you. And secondly, the round differentials don't matter
FNC is most definitely still a contender for No. 1 in the world and it has not swayed at all regardless of scores against FPX or G2.
There's a lot more behind the scoreboard and the round differential that a lot of ppl just don't understand how to fucking read.
