Dont overrate NIP , they are not LOUD which has potential to be the best in the world
The truth is of these 8 teams , NIP is 2nd weakest , only (maybe) better than ZETA
This is normal for us Brazilians, we praise our players, because above all we love them and we want to see Brazil being well represented (at the end of the day, victory or defeat, we bet them). We're not going to put our heads down just because there's an EMEA or NA team on the other side. It just makes us happier to cheer
Even tho I often root for Brazil I also think they are one of the worst teams in the tournment, but they are pretty dangerous, I don't know if it was the Fluyr factor but they seem more organized now than when they played against LOUD... also they don't lack firepower at all.
On a good day they could give any team in the tournment an hard time.
