they were pretty competitive
huh? you sure? people cheered for t1 a lot in shanghai and ive never seen any korea hate either
and against g2 they choked the other two.
yep, its gonna pretty much "which star player can bail out a team more" gameplay
edgs cohesion is pretty good, they just overheat a lot
so apac is minor minor region?
true but seeding historically doesnt matter
is this a joke? why does saadhak speaking portuguese matter
dominated? they didnt even make all 3 lans this year. fnatic lost 3 games I believe all year round
calling tokyo a fluke is crazy. considering prx cant win a b05
the mickey mouse format only had 2 teams that were good that didnt do well in lock//in. both teams made roster changers afrer lock//in...
optic should be the only ones questioned for visa issue tournament wins
rn? experience. but as an org overall? kinda just need to luck out icl
theres only like 3 brazilian teams? why port S tier
0.) True, didnt realise that.
1.) Beating rookie teams that cant find success means your run was easier. I would rather have extra vods than less practice any day
2.) if heretics or karmine won a game against a competent team in madrid (literally anyone but fpx), I would agree .
5,) yeah, as sen dont need to have the most champ points in the league to go on, sen also dont need to win in playoffs
We need more overall consistency for it to be official, if china can always outplace pacific, then we have a talking point. or if china wins a trophy -0-/ in all honesty if china lifts a trophy by next year, they might be the best region considering the opportunity to life one compared to the other regions. otherise in my non bias opinion 1.) AMER 2.) EMEA 3.) APAC 4.) CN
the only breakthrough pacific has had that isnt prx, drx and geng were zeta I believe. and needless to say I believe zeta had the flukiest of fluke runs ever
Chronicle - 3 trophies, best in the world multiple times
Yay - most dominant anyone has been in a full year in all of val
Aspas - consistently a top player
TenZ - most famous and well known player
Derke?
Forsaken?
debatable many had them going far, sen I would say were the madrid favourites
1.) Had to go through LOUD, 100t, LEV, NRG for Kickoff and won - LEV, NRG had 0 synergy at this point. 100T were not a top team yet. Loud were good tho
2.) Beat both EU teams at Madrid Swiss Stage and basically eliminated them - both eu teams were rookie squads that together only beat an extremely weak fpx
3.) Destroyed favorites PRX 3-1 and beat GenG in Madrid final despite having worse map pool & no map ban advantage - True
4.) Fell off Split 2, usually hard to recover form (look at NRG) - fell off at split 1 actually, split 2 they did ok
5.) Clutched Champs by points, voted most overrated team - qualifying through champ points is an easier overall run
6.) Went through group of death and eliminated favorites GenG - True
7.) Beat DRX convincingly - True
8.) Beat EU first seed despite just loosing to EDG - True
9.) Guaranteed Top 4 - True
10.) I don’t think another team could have done this - not true
11.) SEN is clearly one of the top 3 teams this year - winning a trophy makes you top 3 by default
12.) and if they make finals I would argue that they were the best team this year. - GenG have better achievements, not winning split 1 or 2 and not making an international event isnt a dominant showing. Heretics and EDG are up there if they win champs.
If sen win champs:
1) SEN 2) GENG 3) HERETICS
if sen make grandfinals and EDG win champs:
1.) GENG 2.) SEN 3.) EDG (you can argue edg > sen)
if sen dont make grandfinals then they cannot be 2 or above unless LEV win champ
worst take ive ever seen + without any cocky players the game would be boring + zellsis is more cocky
I really hate both roles icl, i much prefer the flashy plays of duelist
I dont play the game much pretty new

give some tips
also they might stuggle against lev
edg ban ascent/icebox
lev ban bind
edg pick sunset (60/40) in favour of edg
lev pick ascent/icebox (20/80) in favour of lev
edg ban abyss
lev ban lotus
haven remainder (40/60) in favour of lev
really? edgs haven is scrappy and very poor compared to a team like fnatic, edgs bind, icebox and I would throw in abyss look messy, edgs ascent is bad
edg have a good lotus (100% wr) and good sunset (100% wr)
besides that they have only found success on bind (2-1)
and they have yet to play abyss or ascent (floated both a couple times but never confident to pick it and the last two showing of the map isnt pretty)
oh yeah, 3 years ago you wouldve said ascend is a bad team, so I dont wanna hear none of this bs
do you honestly want those teams up there? after their performance all year round?
classic L by Stormm
tmv would disagree lol, bro was NOT happy with s1mon and kk
thats an easy part to fix as well, just let the aggressive lurker have a ghost fix up some of that coordination, tone it down a bit and it should be good to go. lucky its not like a midrounding problem because thats much harder to tighten up, if edg fix anti-ecos they are looking strong
"vitality are frauds" "lev did not play to the quality the have in the last few series" "fut are just happy to be there" "prx are shit" "Riot made it cn vs cn so cn can make top 6 again" "edg arent good, they shit on a fraudulant team" "te are rushing to get sent home by drx, frauds exposed" "sen did not play to the quality the have in the last few series"
so many damn excuses when cn win bruh
if drx win abyss its like 70/30 for drx
yeah but edg and sen like the same maps, in all honesty this was probably the ideal veto for both teams. thats why edg is better than lev because lev like different maps
th historically have had a terrible icebox, a half decent icebox team like koi could beat them, they looked much better at icebox against lev but it shows lev arent unbeatable on that map
it was levs second best map coming into champs and probably the best ascent team in champs (along slide geng) before the world knew how good trace were
didnt you know? we have a lock//in 5 masters and 2 champions next year with 0 off season
smoggy??? berlin??? nats????/
what a player, saviour for EDG fr
prx broke all their confidence on that map lol, but also edg hate ascent, and sen hate ascent, lev love ascent
my only experience with tarik is he put trace vs vitality on his alt account which was pretty dog of him to do
im genuinely so glad to see him as well, he was always a funny guy and seeing him have so much energy despite no playing is great.
o7, after all these years edg finally won, I can now sit here calmy and be happy for my chinese teams, no one can now say japan have placed better than china
i had kk as a top 6 player coming into champs
Funny I have the opposite opinion of edg, They have a poor understanding of haven and were way tooo agressive on that map, watching fnatic play that map then watching edg its like 3 different tiers of diff. however on lotus and sunset edg looked really good (except edgs sunset defence, they keep losing it after a huge lead in attack)
