Mark my words JDG is returning to the top 😋

Chinese fans would go crazy for PRX should that be the case lol

1 import rule...

shut the F*** up.

Honestly I do have my doubts about FPX but I still think they stand a very good chance.

FPX and Lev have looked cool.

This is true. The group stage this time has been absolutely banging overall.

If it isn't politcal then it isn't what I'm referring to. I've seen plenty of "politics focused" threads that don't add any positivity to the site.

Alright. It's just getting a bit on my nerves because as much as I do enjoy debating these types of topics, it just brings the mood down so much.

I think it's actually very interesting. Regions and teams are developing well and there have been some banger series played.

Can we not get political on this forum? I get that it's hard to avoid because the event is being held in Shanghai but could we just try to enjoy the event for what it is?

For sure man, it's actually wild that he deemed it necessary to say that.

Exactly.

lol

Ah okay thanks

I am not proficient in these things... :(

If so, big fan. If not, still big fan. Cheers!

2023 Champions

Not yet but I'll see if I can catch a game in Shanghai over the summer.

Are you the real something?

No I do not.

Sometimes it's macaroni but I was never taught to say holy ostrich

Holy cow they're worse than me!

Yeah let them get a taste of their own medicine.

And went 1-2 against GenG who they had 0% chance of beating in a close encounter.

And yet the CN teams actually look relatively competent this time around considering their newness.

2-0 FPX nudge past TH in close maps.

Not for us Europeans.

Americas: stay up super late into the night.
EMEA: Good timing (unless work/school)
APAC: Good timing

1. Paincakes
2. Virtyy
3. Chadi

Qing dynasty wasn't great to be fair.

Yeah

Playoffs arena is going to be super cool

Champs Hangzhou would be so lit

RIOT wouldn't even consider your third option lol

Fnatic and PRX for sure.

I hate to be like this and I agree with your point but majority of LATAM countries are part of North America.

2021: EMEA
2022: EMEA
2023: AMER
2024: APAC
2025: ???

Can't imagine them holding it in APAC twice in a row

sheesh

Great minds think alike :)

I smell a 2-0

What is this uncivilized thread

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/1be47e21
Maybe?

Yeah he probably wanted FUT to go 13-4 on both maps or smth

You can't blame him for taking the side he took considering the environment he is in

Why

Well, yeah, they're probably just a bit too quiet for my preference.

Pretty sure it's just against GenG because they were cheering for T1 just fine.

Yup, what I meant in point 2.

He said before...

Yeah, that's what I mean in point 2. The crowd needs to know players/teams better to get behind them (which is normal). In Lev's case, they have aspas, who has a decent fanbase in China as far as I know.
