Difference is our 19-20yo are gaining experience on LAN while their 19-20yo are struggling against boomers at home.

If you look at any relevant esport, NA scene dies out when game gains more competitive depth.

Bro its over for Fnatic, you still on that copium.

Time will tell, they just started to fall.

Props to them at least they lasted in form a little longer than Fnatic, but now both will be overrated for another year by their delusional fans until they fade into abyss.

There are no people with correct pickems everyone has 1 wrong guess.
Also pickems are broken some lost 20 points in groups some 25 in playoffs, but it shows all 6 have 240 points

or I guess Moe40 is just a test account

yup seperating CIS EU and TR, f*uked up EMEA LCQ

They had timeouts vs G2 if I remember correctly

I guess if you didn't follow CS for you both teams are nonamers.

Who aren't Tier1? both teams are tier1. They are playing playoffs and had overtime on 3rd map, both teams are insane.

Are you mad zoomers almost beat your boomers?

Are they not compared to 100T?
They almost stomped 100T but nerves got to them.

I hope there would be 50/50 finals NA vs EU forever, otherwise it would be boring, but kids choking vs veterans is not surprising at all.

They literally are washed up CS pros, They are good at Valorant vs Zoomers, but for how long?

Boomers with 10 years of experience won vs Zoomers in a close game, you should hope that NA has a replacement for them in a couple of years or it will be CS all over again :)

Better then SilverMB

G2 were playing so well in group D, while SMB and Acend looked like first time playing together and were making so many mistakes and were completely lost while Acend still managed to qual KEKW

Almost lost to Paper Rex LMAO

Sorry can't hear you from playoffs

I mean they are better than NA, but still its a reach.

Well we will now see how good is Nukkyes Phoenix

How much did Turkish Airlines paid G2 for ticket to Berlin?

Keep it warm in case map 2 goes wrong, it was to close for Icebox

OK explain your definition of "arguably"

I didn't even look at your flair, I don't care. I assumed you said Gambit is arguably the best team in the EMEA.
Key word "arguably" with means you think it can be argued against and you wouldn't go mald if someone would have good points against your statement even if you don't agree with them.

Do you know what "arguably" means?

Edit: Also I didn't say you don't think Gambit are the best I said you left space for debate with that word.

"arguably against the best team in the EMEA"

I support teams that have Lithuanian representation so G2 and Acend.

I don't have a flair just to piss of people who after losing an argument go after your country or favorite team.

Also as you said it yourself "arguably against the best team in the EMEA" so its debatable.
These teams haven't played high stake games against each other, especially on LAN.

G2 was way worse 2 weeks ago and it makes sense as they are new team so its hard to call if they improved or got lucky. I need sample size, not base it on star alignment.

People have to many tiers, I use 5 tier system:

Tier1: Can beat any team on their day.
Tier2: Can challenge tier1 and should win vs mix teams.
Tier3: Top mix teams and low tier teams.
Tier4: Low mix teams, garbage teams.
Tier5: Diamond friend mixes.

If G2 won't choke today, I will tell you tomorrow.
or Sunday if Acend will have miracle run.

To hard to tell right now, its G2 vs Gambit.

This was in Berlin qual, couple days later G2 won vs FPX

13-4 13-4 would be a choke, also debatable about best EMEA

G2 loves to throw vs tier3 teams:

https://www.vlr.gg/30757/supermassive-blaze-vs-g2-esports-champions-tour-stage-3-emea-challengers-playoffs-ubsf

They have days when nothing goes their way, as they say themselves.
Also if you gonna choke, choke vs Gambit not in the Final.

-Thanks

G2 will win final and will get direct invite

"FUCK SANTINELS"

GMB hasn't played EMEA on LAN yet

Europe LCQ is so scuffed because of Masters 1 and EU, CIS and TR being separated.

I get that, but my point is some people might support EU or CIS but not care about EMEA, so its annoying when CIS or TR team plays and they are called EU. If you say "EMEA sucks" its fine, but "EU sucks" when EU isn't playing just doesn't make sense.

I personally wouldn't care about most of these matches, I only watch Acend and G2 because of Lithuanian representation in these teams.
I tuned in to GMB vs CR just because underdog was winning.
And it doesn't make sense for me to support Gambit because of VCT points vs G2

This is still true.

EU is shambles

https://www.vlr.gg/38657/eu-v-tr-v-cis/

Don't make bullshit up, he didn't say he was overrated, he said that pressure might get to him on LAN and he can choke.

That cNed might choke on LAN bc no experience and a lot of pressure as he is being called top EU player
Turks got so mad about that and mocked nukkye when cNed played well first time vs SMB on LAN :))

Would not be surprised G2 loves to throw random games, especially vs tier3 teams

Not true, VS are good, but I think Acend just underrated them and got caught off guard by stupidly aggressive plays by VS, teams will expect VS playing so aggressive now.

G2 vs SEN Final would be so fun after they beat each other in groups.
But I can see G2 losing to KRU 13-4 13-4, or any other team along the way, they are so inconsistent.

I think any team can win Berlin maybe except KRU and Envy, so its definitely gonna be fun to watch.

EMEA includes Middle East and Africa. I'm not trying to split us (UK already did tho :DDD) I'm just saying I would support Lithuania if they played Latvia, and France if they played Turkey, but tbf EMEA is so far that I would in some cases support some Asian underdog than TR team that is in EMEA.

I guess you can put EEA between EU and Europe.

EU:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Member_state_of_the_European_Union#List
Europe:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_and_dependent_territories_in_Europe

There are exceptions like I would rather support Swiss or Norway better than something like Portugal(example), but I wouldn't watch these games anyways and this is just example that for me some regions are more important than others.
