Americas passed EU as soon as they won their second champs. Now Americas passed EU's trophy count as well (obviously Fluke-In isn't being counted)

EG made 10 times as much from winning champs as FNC did from winning Fraud-In

How did EMEA fans manage to convince people Lock-In wasn't a joke of a tournament? It was a pre-season, single-elimination, no-group stage, randomly seeded show match with a prizepool slightly larger than a Knights weekly tournament. And they want to pretend this "trophy" should be valued the same as Champs? It's embarrassing

4 trophies and a 5 pack of mickey mouse ears from Lock-In for all of FNC to wear

4 trophies and one lock-in mickey mouse souvenir T-shirt

Ethan made it just as close to Madrid as Botster. And NRG had to actually face talented teams

Sentinels. Africa is a one team region, but EU has 0

NA hasn't been in an elimination match at Madrid yet. What are you talking about? Did you forget that awful EU teams are the ones getting eliminated

Sure. Add Africa to the ever-expanding list of regions better than Europe

I agree that teams will improve as the year goes on, but the original commenter said "these teams are clearly better" than last year's, which I don't think is accurate.

The top 4 teams from last year were EG, PRX, FNC, and LOUD. PRX and LOUD directly downgraded their roster, EG exploded, and FNC are nowhere to be seen. I think it's fair to say the field is weaker right now

Best player in your whole region. It's not his fault he couldn't carry 4 EU deadweights to a win

They already got their revenge against EDG at champs

Africa clears Europe. Heard loud and clear

How do EU fans talk so much trash when these are the teams they're sending?

Yetujey just lost a 5v1 against a Tier 2 NA duelist

Your region has 6 players deserving of a salary and 5 are on FNC. The other is from NA

FNC didn't even make top 3 at champs. I'd say they got pretty thoroughly tested last year

If my grandmother had wheels she would be a bike

We saw brother

c0m gets downplayed by everyone. How is he overrated? Honestly every player on EG other than Demon1 and Ethan get super little praise relative to what they achieved last year. Teams like DRX can be mid forever and people still call all their players top tier
