I knew I saw this graphic before - https://twitter.com/purest/status/1494737199564144644/photo/2

how does one interpret that graphic?

why do 13-16th place get 175 points while 11th and 12th get only 150 (and why are they out of the borders)

your opinion is objectively wrong

There are so many styles of play in Asia that I think it's extremely difficult to answer the first and second questions.
Xerxia is a great example of this, their style would likely benefit more from an Astra Viper meta. They lost because they couldn't keep up with Optics insane pace using the brimstone and neon.

The last one is easy. It's a clear yes. Compared to previous challengers events, the most recent one was very competitive and most matches had teams that had a good idea of the game they wanted to play with a lot of preparation for executing said plan.

There's more talent and investment this year too, and more eyes on the players as well.

Forsakinggg

8/8

Chet's worst nightmare

yeah. I love Davai but PTC hits different

PTC + sScary -> PRX

GG

yes

lmfao 8/8

I think APAC may become similar to EMEA, and the regional qualifiers will change to VRLs with a similar format to that of EMEA.

If that happens, the rule will likely be dropped.

It's difficult due to the regional qualifiers' roster requirements. I think it's definitely possible with investment, though.

I think they're definitely the clear favorites unless you weigh recent results incredibly high.

2nd at Champs, 1st at Berlin. Just missed qualification to Masters 1 2022 with only one "bad" match so far this year.

Horrible viewership

250k peak for challengers is great

Fnatic with two subs definitely

KRU at the very least showed some resistance in a 16-14 OT loss to Liquid.

Mako has a higher FK/FD differential (opening frags), a comparable ACS and ADR, while playing the controller. I think it's easy to see why one might put him at number 1.

1 - MaKo
2 - Sacy
3 - SugarZero
4 - Scream
5 - Yay

when prx's attack half ends their second attack half begins

i'm talking about lower ranks

bottom frag yorus left right center up down and in sewers

SEA ranked is fucked

'//,
LOUD
PRX
OPTIC

GTNjesus I KNEEL

I concur

trembo I love you

they break the geneva convetions everytime they duo-q, that's a straight-up war crime against the radiant players of SEA

Confirms an Asian team in the top 3 at the very least.

I'm contractually obliged to support PRX but I also have twice overdosed on the Zetium

PRX 1-1 Zeta (last map goes 50-50 and they draw)

Forsaken dropped 29 on Yoru

they fucking did it

I'm a permanent PRX fan

30 on Yoru

he's dropping 30 on YORU!????

26/11

this shit is wack

GTN was truly before his time. His talent is underappreciated.

FORSAKEN WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING TO G2????

shhhhh

I cannot stop smiling

washed cs players vs hungry talent

you make the choice

cloned Bunny and put him on jett too

COPE, SEETHE, MALD !

YOU"RE LOSING TO YORU

they're fucking doing it the madmen

if they pick yoru and win doing the same type of shit I will be a fan of PRX for the rest of my life

GIGACHADS blast pack and dash into 5

+sova

These mfs playing attack 2

literally terrorize SEA ranked

HOLY FUCK HE"S ACTIVATED

no that's definitely new, and very cool

I hope it is rolled out to other events too

are you a chatbot?

Hiber did well too in the situation he was in

PRX 2-0

this tournament is literally unpredictable

I'm on the gigahopium for Zeta Division to complete their run and take the whole thing.
