my confidence in both redgar and boaster has somehow gone down so far this match (redgar was already at 0 so not really)

CN is just bait but the issue last year was it was JUST FNC lol, every region has more depth this year

i identify as an americas alpaca actually

i know allot of nothing

honestly idk, it takes more than boaster for a roster this stacked to crumble, and Boaster was already known as a choker at champions

a slight amount of estrogen to be more femboy is my guess

its people FROM not people playing in so RB is from APAC not CN

im picking 2 mechanics and 1 IGL
Americas: Less, Aspas, Saadhak (IGL)
EMEA: Alfajer, Miniboo, JohnQT
APAC: Forsaken, Texture, Sscary or Stax
China: Kangkang, Life, EDG igl who i have forgotten

where did u get adolfo from im confused

nope old stinky cat and :3 are better than DRX

its a platchat meme bro LMFAO

best is :3 and OLD STINKY CAT
worst is SEN and Navi

chichoo top 21 player

he's only played 52 games he probably doesn't qualify thinking about it

it does not fix their issues though lol

yes? because they were rookies they were mentioned a lot, now they're not really as rookie so they aren't talked abt as much.

the other 2 on KC.... tomazy and marteen

i don't think thats specific to N4rrate lol, all 3 of the rookies have been mentioned less since madrid ended

the only 1 of my takes that has been proven wrong so far this split was me underrating GenG

the only reason you think some of my takes are bad is because it goes against your opinion

bro what the fuck is your #6 in EMEA and your 4-6 in AMER LMAO
its actually
SEN > TH
NRG > Fut/KC
LOUD > Fut/KC
100T << Navi
Kru << Vit
C9 << FNC
edit: NA -> AMER (oops)

champs is a long way away brother you have no way of knowing that

emea have the best top 6 (top to bottom) this take is just wrong

i don't really have a least favorite team so

https://www.vlr.gg/player/257/bramz its probably this dude

that was global

i rarely watch TV outside of star wars which i've always been a huge fan of, but I'll look into it

idek what those are fallout >

im surprised epic even allowed it

what is project nova

before this year scream was there too(mechnically, not igl LOL), but since he aint playing rn idk if we'd still count him

i haven't watched him, but i highly doubt that he can be as useless as he was last time

its definitely much more exciting than it was last year but any matchup between the bottom 4 and top 6 is zzzzzzzzzz

trae is gonna get snubbed again

he's on a different role now so maybe its different if this roster is true

WAIT EDG IS ON HERE WHAT THE FUCK

are you ok? my point was that they were similar in regional leagues, and you countered that by showing a similarity?

lev doesn't make sense, the rest of the list does.

good joke lmfaooo #12 is from apac and agrees with me so stop this delusion

Literally does not matter if they deserved it or not, I can argue LOUD still deserved top 4 because KRU and optic were the only teams that could beat them (which remained true through all of 2022)

even remove reykjavik
1st, 2nd, and 3rd > 1st and 4th

i genuinely don't understand how you can look at what DID happen, not what "Could've or should've" happened and say 1 event win + 1 4th place = 2 1st places, 1 3rd place

LMFAOOO u brought up an upper bracket match to argue against a LOWER bracket run. Holy fucking shit

because it was a bo5 vs a bo3 we can't directly compare, so I used round win%
like even theoretically if FPX > PRX
thats still 4th
they weren't beating zeta on their miracle run

can both of u stfu this thread was abt sentinelmain377 not some random ass website

i watched the games back then lol, i've been watching since before first strike, Paper rex beat G2 harder than FPX did
(FPX won 55.6% of rounds, PRX beat G2 winning 60.5% of rounds

NA was relatively similar at stage 2, the bottom of Group A was TSM (beat 100T who made champs which shows parity) and TGRD (literally #1 seed of stage1)
and group B was close with C9 being positive on rounds yet going 2-3 and SEN had to have rawkus sub for sick, and they won their only map in the 1 series sick played

nah old haven didn't get boring it actually had a constantly evolving meta

are we forgetting papara supermassive? 0-5 1-10 on maps -51 rounds?

1. G2 got sixth, FPX were not 3 spots at an international event better than G2 to make top 3, or 5 spots better to win the event
2. I'm saying the rest of NA wasn't THAT bad compared to Optic, NA was just full of young and inexperienced teams that saw them suffer internationally compared to domestically
3. Refer to #1
