Emea isn't bad

Guys it's only group stages. The final outcame can be very diffrent from what we see now. We can still have eu vs eu finals and you think someone will remember what happend in group stages? NA is playing so good right now that's true. No one deny it

But the hate toward emea on vlr is so high. I guess that's the price for being the best region. Everyone seeks you to fall.

Yes - the best region. If we check every top 4 teams at every torunament from each region, it says for it self.

Iceland 2021 TOP 4 teams NA,EU,EU,KR

Berlin 2021 TOP 4 teams EU,NA,EU,NA

Berlin 2021(Champions) TOP4 teams EU,EU,EU,LATAM

Iceland 2022 NA,BR,APAC,JP

Copenhagen EU,NA,APAC,EU

To sum it up

EU had 9 teams ended up top4 3x with trophy including Championships 2021

NA had 5 teams ended up top4 with 2x trophy

KR Had 1 team ended up top4

APAC had 2 teams ended up top4

BR had 1 team ended up top4

LATAM had 1 team ended up top4

No need to comment that

interesting how quickly people switch the stance between "EMEA is the best in the world" and "EMEA isn't bad"

EMEA is the best region even if they are not winning champions .

( Edit - EMEA will be the best region of all time if they are not winning this champions , thanks sheahhh )

Unless

2/3 NA makes top 2 in this champions and all of EMEA got grouped.

Because

EMEA 2 masters win ( best masters not iceLOLand )
NA 2 iceLOLand win

EMEA - 3 out 4 teams in top 4 of champions.

SO only NA can surpass if 2/3 na teams plays finals in this champions.

EMEA on top

EMEA with their VRL will def cultivate better talent than NA. While the NA scene have their NSG lans and small tourneys the quality of teams there are mostly pug teams with a degree of tier 2 signed teams. Despite Riot announcing how tier 2 is going to work in all the regions i still like the organization and system presented by VRL.

didnt read but yes

While I do agree EMEA has put up better performances, lets not forget that EMEA has had 1 more slot in every tournament than NA with the exception of Iceland 2021. So even though they have 4 more Top 4 finishes, they also had 4 more teams compete than NA. I would look at EMEA vs NA head to head as a better indicator of which region is better (I think its 6-8 in favor of EMEA).
